If I can flip the sails to a new tack…..

The most aggravating thing to me is that most problems facing the U.S. today, vis-a-vis the COVID 19 crisis, are due to gross mismanagement on the part of the President. The virus didn’t sneak into the country. Everyone knew it was coming.

Instead of anticipatory action (Management 101) the President launched into a bizarre campaign of demonizing China, suggesting the virus was a hoax perpetrated by the Democrats and making bizarre predictions like “by April it will go away with the warm weather”, et cetera. Instead of showing concern for the American people, Trump politicized it in whatever manner he thought it would help him. Even now, when Governors are looking to the President for central leadership in getting the supplies they need, Trump's flippant response is: "the federal government isn't a shipping clerk".

I think the handing of the COVID 19 invasion explains why the President had so many business failures - he is only capable of mismanagement.
