Me: It’s BOHICA time (look it up if you do not know what it means).
President and Vice President don’t think anything through; denying all they hear and even endangering their own families. My God, what are we to do?

Trump’s Budget Proposal Reveals His Values – LA Progressive
The budget calls for deep cuts in major U.S. government programs, especially those protecting public health. The Department of Health and Human Services would be slashed by 10 percent, while the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which has already been proven to be underfunded and unprepared to deal with the coronavirus outbreak, would be cut by 9 percent.
