As an American living abroad, I have watched from afar all the mistakes and mishandling of this virus with shame for my country. People keep asking me what I think about the US response, and I just tell them to look at the numbers and what that idiot is saying. It breaks my heart that my mom, who has COPD, could have been more protected had Trump, and Governor DeSantis responded quicker. I am a former nurse with many of my friends fighting this virus on the front lines without proper PPE. Masks are being sown and donated, but they need more... They need better. The US deserves better than what it has been given by that buffoon!
Edit: wow, my first award. Thank you kind stranger. I didn't expect this kind of response when I posted.

Can there be a rule that when things like this are posted that the OP is required to link a source?
Edit: it’s not that I doubt it happened, but it’s much more constructive when sources are shared when these claims are made

Why is this tagged as "something different" in /r/worldpolitics, American politics is just about all I ever see in here
