A primate shit-fight at the zoo

Pelosi claims Trump’s failures are the reason for the severity of the coronavirus  pandemic in America:

“As the president fiddles, people are dying. We just have to take every precaution,” she added.

Republicans, of course, blame Pelosi for delaying the corona virus bill:

Graham continued, “She is the one that held up the package in the Senate for days to get the Green New Deal put in a recovery package, so it’s the most shameful, disgusting thing I’ve heard yet, and it needs to stop.”

Meanwhile, Bill de Blasio, Mayor of New York City is ignoring that it was he who told New Yorker City’s inhabitants to “continue living as you have”, during which time his city becoming an epicenter of the corona virus pandemic:

On Jan. 24, de Blasio said New Yorkers should “continue living as you have”; on Feb. 14 he said, “this should not stop you from going about your life … from going out to Chinatown and going out to eat”; and on March 13, he reiterated “we wanted people to go on about their lives.”

Of course, de Blasio continues to blast the President…:

…for the president of the United States to suggest…this might just be a passing thing is just profoundly irresponsible and it’s going to come back to bite him.”

…while demanding others ignore his own past statements and actions on the corona virus:

“The bottom line is none of us have time to look backwards. I’m trying to figure out how we get through next Sunday, and what we do the week after that.”

Frankly, the extent of the corona virus pandemic and its impact on America must have Democrats jumping for joy; a booming economy is not a good climate for far-left progressive candidates. A faltering economy that leaves voters dependent on the government – now that’s a much more favorable environment.

I would not be surprised to find some arguing that the left’s actions to delay the recovery package (for a wish list that they knew they could not obtain), as well as delaying protective social distancing requirements in NYC, might have been designed to bring about such favorable conditions. I know, I know; conspiracy theory and all… but given the left’s actions so far to affect President Trump’s removal, coupled with their insistence that he be a one-term president, is such an idea so far fetched?
