The U.S. spends 760 billion military dollars a year to make sure we could fight an enemy, but this year an enemy came and we didn’t fight it at all.

Just as wars are fought by coordinating a huge array of military and organizational skills, a war against Covid could have been fought by coordinating a huge array of scientific, medical, governmental and organizational skills.

That coordination did not occur. As a result, medical personnel and first responders were left to make heroic efforts far more burdensome than they should have had to - sometimes even at the sacrifice of their own lives - because of a lack of that federal response.

IMO all you are pushing in this nation is devision which by no means an expression of love.
Some of us "we" have been fighting it as best we can, without the help of our president. And, it's not getting better.

No new wars in the last 5 years is nice. Covid is a cold. Suck it up buttercup and get over it

The US also funds Azerbaijan, a petro dictatorship that is using Syrian jihadists to attack Armenians. They are receiving the mercenaries from Turkey, another US ally.
