I have read at least two letters to the editor and heard Republican Congress members say that one of the reasons we were so ill-prepared for the Covid-19 crisis was because Trump was consumed with the impeachment proceedings, and the lack of preparedness was the fault of the Democrats.
Just for the record, impeachment was not the problem. Here are the dates from January to early March when Trump either went golfing or held one of his campaign rallies:
January 9
January 14
January 18
January 19
January 28
January 30
February 1
February 10
February 15
February 19
February 20
February 21
February 28
March 7
March 8
Looks like a little over 20% of his time off the clock.
ReplyDeleteI remember how he criticized President Obama for playing too much golf.
