Consevative writer, Mona Charon: "The crisis is here, and we’ve put a serial liar and cheat in the big chair. We must never do anything so reckless again.







From the ultra conservative publication called the National Review:

"Trump did not create the virus, but his solipsism has deepened the crisis. What is his chief talking point? That he halted flights from China. He did this on January 31, AFTER major airlines such as United, Delta, and American had already canceled dozens of flights and waived cancellation fees for their passengers."


After This, Voters Will Take Their Responsibility SeriouslyBy MONA CHAREN 

The crisis is here, and look who’s in charge of handling it. 

‘Let’s blow it all up.” That was the sentiment that animated any number of Republican-primary voters in 2016. The “it” was (take your pick) the Republican Party, the “establishment,” the country. There were many good reasons for voters to be dissatisfied with the state of things in 2016. There were also any number of able candidates who could have instituted reforms. But that wasn’t the mood, at least not for the nihilistic 30 percent. It’s hard to think of a less conservative impulse than “Burn it Down!” But that’s what this minority did, voting for the malignant narcissist who had never served anything other than his bottom line."

They made a big mistake in electing Trump the last time.It resulted in us having the worst President this country ever had. It was be of being afraid of having a woman as our President..

I am not sure how many idiots wouldn’t vote for Hillary because it was time for a woman but every one that didMy was a moron. She would have been much better than the shithead we have now,
