Yep, he could have made it a patriotic statement, he could have owned it and make it work to his advantage - the whole thing. He even started out that way, saying this was a war, and he's a war time President. I thought we had a chance then, he'd make this his 9/11 (I mean he's pals with Rudy for goodness sake! He made his name on now he handled that crisis and is still living off it). We might get governmental overreach, but the path to coping as successfully as possible was pretty clear, and he could sell it pretty easily.I admit I would have ripped him for profiteering off the virus, but we would be in a much better place had he done this. His followers would have all gotten right in line with their red masks.
But somehow he went the other way. I firmly believe most of what he does beyond a very surface level of cognition is dictated by whoever he currently trusts to advise him. Someone somewhere who has his ear is really leading him in the wrong direction on this, the question I have is why - what do they have to gain by it? I'm afraid the answer lies in Russia, but we'll never be sure.
