It was more local and state action ...Apparently you are not aware that we don't have socialized medicine in this country, at least not yet. Obama tried that; it didn't last. We do medical care on a State, local and private basis. The Feds support those efforts. The Trump administration handled it exactly as they should have, issuing guidance and providing support.
Biden’s call for a national mandate for wearing masks is political BS. “Mandate” means one has to do whatever is mandated. It is not a suggestion or guidance. So, if we have a “must do” rule for masks who will enforce it? Governors and local authorities? And if they don’t, what then? Are you going to send in the National Gestapo? Establishing a law without a means to enforce it is just plain dumb, and wrong, no matter how good an idea is behind it.
Biden’s “plan” is not the only example of his copy-cat behavior. A sixth grade teacher ask her students to come up with an alternate way to express “Make America Great Again”. The students voted on which of their alternates was the best. It was “Build Back Better”. Of course that story isn’t true (as far as I know) but it could have happened.
Biden apparently opposes every idea of the Dems and has adopted Trump’s positions on everything from law and order to build and buy American and even climate change. The only difference between them now is that if Biden wins we’ll get the weakest President in history and Pelosi - Harris will run the country into socialism.
