To the readers: First I'm not a Democrat or a Republican, just a "citizen" who sees it like it is. I'm conservative on some things and liberal on others. It should never be about what side of the isle you're on but if you're are on the side of what's right. Early on in this crisis Trump said "we can't let the cure be worse than the disease." If Covid is the disease and as President you're suppose to be the cure, then the cure now worse than the disease is.
This poem was pinned before Trump contracted covid-19. It seemed fitting to repost/promote this poem again. I notice some people wishing him well and refraining from criticizing him at this time, I'm sorry but I won't be doing that. Why show this man any sympathy when he so callously continues to downplay this virus even after contracting it himself. He downplayed and lied about the virus from the beginning and continues to do so even after he contracted the disease. He tells the people not to be scared of Covid, that we can beat it. Tell that to the +200,000 that have already died. Yeah we may all be able to beat it if we had a helicopter to land at our door and take us to get some of the world's best treatment (on our tax dollars might I add). While you're using tax dollars to get the world's best care and experimental treatments, the average American is struggling and couldn't get all the things you have access to despite the fact that we are paying for it. While you're at Walter Reed getting the best care the American tax payer can buy, you are actively in court trying to take away healthcare from the people who provide you with yours. You are the President of the United States not the red states. Obamacare helped all Americans not just ones in the blue states. Stop playing politics with peoples' lives.
What happened to only 60,000 or 70,000 deaths if we follow the guidelines? What happened to it will magically go away? What happened to the oath you took to the constitution and the people. Mr. President it's more to your job than projecting strength, your focus should be making America strong, then you are strong. Right now American is anything but strong, we are poorer, sicker, and more divided than we have ever been and it's all under your watch. The only thing worse than a disease that kills indiscriminately is the person who let it happen and did nothing to stop it.
