POL Politiek
Discussies en diepgaande gesprekken over de politiek in de breedste zin van het woord kun je hier voeren.
De Democratische gouverneur van Colorado bestelde zelf (dat moest van POTUS) ventilators die vervolgens door FEMA worden ingepikt terwijl Trump er daarna doodleuk 100 cadeau doet aan zijn Republikeinse senator-vriendje Cory Gardner die dit jaar herkozen moet worden.

Trump's tweet about "immediately sending 100 Ventilators to Colorado at the request of Senator Gardner!" seemed innocuous on its face. But the backstory illustrates how he's turned live-saving medical gear into a form of patronage. quote:“Governor Polis and our Congressional delegation have been working to get more ventilators to Colorado for weeks. In fact, Colorado was set to receive 500 ventilators until FEMA blocked the shipment. Now, President Trump says we will get 100 as a courtesy to Senator Gardner,” DeGette said in a statement. “That means, because the president is playing politics with public health, we’re still 400 ventilators short from what we should have received. His mismanagement of this crisis is costing lives and livelihoods.”
“The fundamental cause of the trouble in the modern world today is that the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.”— Bertrand Russell
