Over 100 thousand Americans are dead and over 40 million are unemployed in the face of the virus that's upended daily life in the United States.

President Donald Trump continues to blame China, where the virus originated, for the amount of cases in the United States.


This is despite the fact that Trump repeatedly dismissed the threat posed by the virus, praised China's transparency on the matter, pushed against widespread testing measures in order to keep the number of diagnosed cases low, and repeatedly ignored warnings of the virus in his briefings. Even now, he discourages the recommendations of his own health experts, such as wearing masks.

The existence of the virus is not Trump's fault, but the failure to react to it—and to prepare for it—is.

Now, a tweet from Trump's presumptive Democratic opponent, former Vice President Joe Biden, is highlighting the difference between the two.

In a tweet from October 25, 2019—about two months before the world's first diagnosed case of the virus—Biden warned that the United States wasn't prepared for a global pandemic.

The same day, Trump was tweeting to Apple CEO Tim Cook about the shortcomings of the swipe feature on iPhones.

Check it out.

Biden's tweet, featuring an article from the Washington Post, warns:

"We are not prepared for a pandemic. Trump has rolled back progress President Obama and I made to strengthen global health security. We need leadership that builds public trust, focuses on real threats, and mobilizes the world to stop outbreaks before they reach our shores."

Meanwhile, Trump's tweet gripes:

"To Tim: The Button on the IPhone was FAR better than the Swipe!"

Biden's deference to science and warnings that we weren't prepared couldn't have presented a starker contrast.





Trump's pandemic response continues to fail.



Stop the stupidity. Are you registered to vote?

Trump Dragged After Making Ridiculous Claim About Randomly Finding Billions On The 'Tariff Shelf'

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed to reporters this week that officials in his administration suddenly found $30 billion they "never knew existed"—located on what Trump referred to as the "tariff shelf."

Tariffs are a tax on imported goods, usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. While tariffs can shield domestic manufacturers by making foreign products more expensive, they are also used as a tool to penalize countries engaged in unfair trade practices, such as government subsidies or dumping goods below market value.

Bride's Friends Surprise Her With Montage Video Of All Her Exes At Bachelorette Party—And People Are Mortified

While Jenny Han's novel To All the Boys I've Loved Before was a major hit, and even became a great film success in 2018, not everyone's married to the idea of reconnecting with their exes after the relationships end.

It might be nice to imagine staying friends after the relationships, imagining our exes missing us or regretting losing us, or even giving us an apology for the things they did wrong. But most of us pine for this for a little while, realize it's all a fairy tale, and push past it to better things and new love.
