Here's the deal my actual friend - Trump is saying things that are not true

There are not tests available to all who want or need them.
There is not protective gear for those who need it to do their jobs.
My wife is very involved in what's happening here. Message me if you'd like more details on what is and is not happening instead of what our president says is happening. I'm sorry to say this, but I suspect the federal response would be very different if red states and not blue states were bearing the extreme brunt of this. I had several boxes of masks I bought after the swine flu crisis in 2009. We just donated them to our local health care providers because they are reusing ones designed for single use only. She said 'How'd you feel if a doc or nurse was standing above you while you were sick and didn't have a mask and we had a couple boxes on a shelf in the basement?" I'll stop - but this is fucked and our president refuses to be a leader to ALL Americans.
