The COVID-19 vaccine rollout is so riven with disorganization that it’s difficult for the incoming Biden administration to even ascertain what the problems are.
Basic Facts were not a part of the previous administration’s working toolset.
“COVID Vaccine Distribution Plagued…”
I see what you did there.
Nodeng to see.
“When things move fast, nothing is perfect,” he said.
Yeah, they get warped.
That announcement both revealed the scale of the challenge that the Biden administration is up against while also placing reports of fluctuating state vaccine shipments in context: if the federal government that Trump left behind can’t track how much vaccine it has, then state officials may only be experiencing the rippling effects of incompetence at the top.
Joe’s team just doesn’t know how to use the Transporter yet now that they’ve arrived at their destination.
Sounds like the Trump twin plagues of incompetence and mendacity is preventing effective measures against the Trump Pandemic that was caused by the aforementioned Trump Twin Plagues… can barely wrap head around it…
I submit Trump is an exemplar of the reverse of Hanlon’s razor
The Trump administration failed to do simple bookkeeping. What a frickin’ mess.
I think this was just as likely deliberate for 2 reasons. 1) mess up things for Biden (i.e. success) and / or 2) got siphoned off under the table, inaccurate inventory makes it easier to steal.
This is a feature. If you don’t have any books at all, they can’t prove you were cooking them.
It’s an administrative issue, don’t cha know.
Of course it was. It is just how Trump ran his own corrupt operations. The thing is, eventually everyone else’s records become available and then the con collapses. It just takes time.
Interesting here. Because in Trump’s case there is excess of both malice and stupidity. A lot of damage has been cause by Trump’s stupidity. But the only reason his malice didn’t cause more damage is because his stupidity got in the way.
Which makes me wonder, can anyone remember Trump acting out any feeling other than malice? I am trying to remember something that he did with good intentions towards everyone. Every policy he proposed seemed retribution( he wanted to punish China, Europe, Mexico) , owning the liberal (environment, judges) or rank self-interest (tax cuts, Pandemic response, election stealing).
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki would not say on Monday, when asked, that the Biden administration had managed to repair the damage and determine how many doses are available.
@josh_kovensky Given that the Biden Admin has been on the job for a total of 5 calendar days IMHO Jen Psaki could not say on Monday that the Biden administration had managed to repair the damage and determine how many doses are available, not that she would not say.
She’s not being evasive, she simply can’t answer.
They have been keeping multiple sets of books forever.
People are going to start lining up at Marolago for their shots. Pricey but no waiting.
So, does this clarify whether Who? can walk and chew gum at the same time? I don’t think so.
I would suggest Trump keeps three sets of books. The first is for the regulators / banks; the second for the family; and the third, for him. The only set of books that’s even close to accurate is the third set.
I had to see my internist for a medication check and to get my A1c checked today. We discussed the COVID vaccine situation. She told me that her group (a big multidisciplinary practice that has several hospitals and clinics all over the area) has the capacity to vaccinate 5000 people/day. They can’t get vaccine supplies to do more than 1000/day.
I knew that Tronnie Dump was going to fuck up distribution. I underestimated just how badly he could (and did) fuck it up.
I think it was messed up because no one knew how to do the work, and those who did weren’t listened to, they were Faucied. There T**** maladministration officials commenting on things that they had no reason, or knowledge to comment on.
You know who should have been in charge, Lynn Patton, Eric’s wedding planner. She’s the one that got placed in charge of Region II for HUD.
