Trump has attacked your health system, and even cut research and action areas for fighting viruses.
Other leaders have not done that. Now he's basically not doing anything other leaders are not doing.

Presidents are reelected on the basis of a good economy. Trump has lost that claim, so he needs war.
Presidents at war also boosts their reelection chances. So Trump is busy now ramping up that angle.

Since I don't file taxes anymore, I'm not going to get a damn thing and if I do get sick I'll be put at the end of the line. Just my POV but fuck them all.

As a former secretary of labor, I can tell you that the airlines don't deserve a $50 billion bailout.
In the last 10 years, they spent 96% of their cash flow to buy back shares of their own stock in order to boost executive bonuses.

They shouldn't see a dime of taxpayer money.
