Mitt Romney, who was the only Republican senator to break party lines and vote in favor of Donald Trump being impeached at his Senate trial earlier this month, is now attacking the president again. This time, the Utah senator is claiming that the Trump administration is totally unprepared for a potential coronavirus outbreak.
As Trump tried to tamp concerns over the coronavirus in New Delhi, saying that the situation was “under control” and is a “problem that’s going to go away,” Romney was confronting officials in Washington D.C. at a private briefing on the virus. As a member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, Romney claims to not think Trump is doing enough to stop coronavirus from spreading within the United States.
“I’m very disappointed in the degree to which we’ve prepared for a pandemic, both in terms of protective equipment and in terms of medical devices that would help people once they are infected,” Romney said, according to The Hill.
I guess djt didn’t have enough canned goods in his pantry
Trump needs to step up! He acts like he is listening to Rush.
Is he running for something? President of Utah, maybe?
Hide the dog!
What a pathetic little bitch Mittens is.
Right on cue, Mitt Romney takes his orders from the Democrat - Media Complex and parrots their lies
what an AH
What, in your opinion as a global pandemic enthusiast, should Trump do?
Mitt Romney, the world’s greatest “BUTT WIPE”!!!!
Just go away, Mitt. You don’t matter on the national scene anymore - the ‘stuff’ just wasn’t in you.
(God save me from weasel has-beens who blew their chances at being great.)
California is the most prepared FOR a pandemic — people pooping on the streets, homeless with weak immunities, etc.
Why have the dems who run the state not cleaned all that up, knowing the potential threat of disease?
They met weeks ago and took proactive steps. There is virtually zero cases inside our borders right now. What else can he done?
Feces/ Worms/Pond Scum. Romney is lower.
Why didn’t the Democrats warn us about the virus?
Mittins could always use his own money to help the people, and not only the Mormons.
But wait, that’s his own money. He has access to far more now.
Oh shut up, Pierre Delecto, nobody cares about what you think. You’re a massive attention wh*re, just shut up.
I mean, when you get right to it, we’re not prepared. No way are we prepared. If a hot spot developed in Los Angeles or San Francisco, what could be done JUST to care for all the critical cases that would develop? I mean, you’re talking in Hubei province 2000+ critical, 6000 serious - there’s not anywhere near that many beds in the hospitals down there, or enough acute care to take the load off the hospitals to make room.
Trump’s taken a very active role and started down the road, but absent the ability to roll out 20,000 new hospital beds in a matter of weeks, we’re not prepared.
Now, as for Mitt’s criticism, why don’t we have the ability, Mr. Senator?
