Yeh...  he kinda blew that call....   by like....  a lot.

And Its a big one, sit back and just remember all the new precedents that year set. We now have a federal government that has the precedent and authority to tell you a private citizen, a private business owner, no you can't go to work because we deemed it dangerous. No you can't operate your business because we deemed it dangerous. 

They told landlords no you can't collect rent and no you can't evict non-payers for over a year! They set the precedent only selected usually large corporations can conduct business but the private small business was out of luck. 

Under trump the federal government fully subsidized this vaccine then decided to fully subsidize the distribution because it needed to be "free". Now the push to fully subsidize all kinds of medicine is in play see the whole insulin price control going on right now, trumps administration and the cdc started the ball rolling down the socialized government funded healthcare good luck stopping that now. 

Now let's talk about the redistribution of wealth under trump. Not one not two but three times! Factor in the reality trumps administration set the foundation for the argument that we don't need to work we can just stimulate economic activity through wealth redistribution. Sounds like something right out of a socialist play book doesn't it?

Least we forget before covid trump ran the deficit spending up as much as Obama and Bush! 

So someone tell me again how's this guy the champion of the GOP or a small government conservative? How is trump NOT a big government liberal? Because he says stuff we want to hear at rallys? 

Trump is the greatest threat to the conservative movement and they're going to sing his praises to the end. Blows my mind.
