But I think covid is a biological issue and cannot be stopped by politicians, can it?

I'm not sure Americans are unhinged, just about 62 million of them. The real question, did they support the cancer that's killing America because they're unhinged or did they become unhinged as a result of supporting the cancer that's killing America?

But why shouldn't we respond to covid ourselves, instead of doing what the President says to do about it? If you wait to do what he says about it, than that just makes the American people a sheeple, and why should they blame a President for not making a good enough sheeple out of them?

Individuals have freedom to respond how they want in states with lax preventative measures that rely on rely on 'personal accountability' for a public problem. Certain entities can't just respond however they want though. They rely on state/federal funding and can get in serious 'doo-doo' for not following guidelines.

I see but what doo-doo would people get in for not following Trump's response, if he hasn't given much of a response for people to follow?

The president had tweeted that he had signed the full emergency decleration for Iowa, but it's now coming out that he had actually only signed part of it. This is who half the country wants to vote for in November.

Well when it is said that he only signed part of it, how many times does it have be signed then, to count as all of it?

The president did nothing about it when it started. He didn't do what other countries were doing to stop the spread.

Also in America, people here are so obsessed about freedom that they will go Karen if you demand they wear a mask while in Asia, people there had no problems wearing masks and didn't Karen about it.

It has been up for states and towns to enforce the mask rule and social distancing rule.

Idk, but either way, he lied. Not something a true leader would do.

Loss of funding like I said. Lawsuits. Removal from government jobs.
