My point is not that it was executed properly but that he gave machines to Putin and many other countries
Bob Woodward: Trump gave a secret stash of COVID tests to Putin while Americans struggled for supplies. Trump: No way. Kremlin: Way.

$SPX new all time high thanks to President Don The Con. Oh wait what was I thinking, he's no longer President for almost 4 years now. I thought the stock market only sets records when he 3am tweet-storms in between BigMac bites.
Its no wonder you hate Trump so, boomer. As you know, Hamas has now been severely degraded and Hezbollah has recently been dealt very, very powerful crippling blows. With strength and the right leadership, the dawn of a new more harmonious Middle East is finally within our reach. It’s finally within our reach. But you have no idea the role that the United States has to play in order to get that ball over the goal line. We have to get it into the end zone. And if it’s not the United States, it’s not going to happen. It’s not going to happen. We have to be able to get it done and get it done properly and get back to a wonderful, beautiful way of life. You have to be able to do it. You have to finish what you began and you have to finish it quickly. So here is my commitment to you on the solemn date. I will not allow the Jewish state to be threatened with destruction. I will not allow another Holocaust of the Jewish people. I will not allow a jihad to be waged on America or our allies and I will support Israel’s right to win its war on terror and it has to win it fast no matter what happens. Thank you. And I want to, while we’re at this point, I want to thank Mr. Steve Witkoff, a great entrepreneur in New York and Florida and elsewhere, I think everywhere frankly. But he’s made a major contribution, so I just want you to know that I think it’s appropriate to bring that up. What do you think? And Steve is the only one that doesn’t really care if I do, but he’s been very generous. Thank you very much, Steve. I appreciate it. With his wonderful, beautiful boy.
I remember during the Pandemic...many Americans could not understand why the United States hospital system was so ill-prepared with PPE equipment that many Americans DIED because the hospitals did not have life support equipment (ventilators), children with severe Covid infections had to be flown (airlifted) to nearby states just to get access to life support equipment. In addition, there was a shortage of N95 masks for frontline workers such as the police, EMT, paramedics, nurses, and Doctors...many of these healthcare workers just quit. The OIG report was preceded by an investigation by the Government Accountability Office, which found in January that the Trump administration had sent more than 8,700 ventilators around the world, at a cost of more than $200 million, with no way to keep track of where many of them ended up. The GAO found that major decisions about the initiative were made by the National Security Council, and could not identify the reasoning behind those decisions. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/20/us-...-to-russia-as-coronavirus-crisis-deepens.html Later, Russia sends United States ventilators but the equipment did not work. https://www.forbes.com/sites/daniel...ulty-ventilators-russia-sent-as-pandemic-aid/ Today, now we know why. The Trump administration abandoned our Pandemic plan from the Obama administration because they thought we didn't need it. The COVID-19 pandemic hit America and we didn't know how much life support equipment we were going to need (we had no Pandemic plan)... We decided to give a lot of it away to Russia as Trump decides Putin is more important than America and our children. I used to post here at ET countless stories about kids being separated from their families due to them being medivac from a rural community children's hospital that did not have ventilators and other life support equipment. Simply, our rural communities like the ones I grew up in Kentucky and South Dakota were hit hard in 2020 by the Covid Pandemic. Now I know why those communities didn't have ventilators. Last of all, why give our critical life support equipment to Russia and not allied countries like Italy, France, Germany, England who were hit almost as hard as the United States in 2020 by the Pandemic ??? India is a strategic partner of the United States and they suffered the most Covid Deaths because they did not have ventilators. Countless images I've posted here at ET about civilians in India dying in the hallways of India's hospitals, people dying in the streets because they could not breadth... Now I have a better understanding of what Trump means by America first...unless you're Russia. What the fuck!!! wrbtrader P.S. The below link explains a little more and that some of our strategic allies did receive some of those ventilators. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2021/01/29/usaid-trump-ventilators-watchdog/
