The man is despicable. Despite having time to send 10 or 20 tweets a day, play golf at his resort, hold election rallies every week, and so on, he puts his VP in charge so that if it goes tits up he can dodge responsibility.

The other day he was asked why he disbanded the pandemic reaction team in 2018. He called it a nasty question and tried to say someone else in his administration did it without his knowledge.

Video came out yesterday of him in 2018 justifying disbanding the pandemic team saying it was a waste of money and he could un-disband them whenever he wanted.

His management of all this has been pretty much the same as everything else he does - lie, deflect, blame, cover up - and usually it works, because a man who got where he is by bullsh1tting people only needs to carry on bullsh1tting the same people who fell for his BS in the first place.

But unfortunately for him you can't bullsh1t a virus, and I think this might be the end of the road for him. He was odds on to win the next election a month ago, now he's only evens, and the brown stuff hasn't even started to hit the fan yet.
