Americans Horrified to Learn Jared Kushner Scrapped a National Testing Plan Because Only Blue Staters Were Dying
Only Jared F’ing Kushner and Donald Trump could find a way to make a pandemic political. It shouldn’t surprise us, and yet the deep and malignant cynicism residing in these people continues to shock us, no matter how many times we’ve heard similar things or feel it in our bones. Trump and Kushner have focused upon their political and economic lives (there is no difference) the entire tenure of Trump’s presidency, and thus it makes sense that COVID would be viewed through the exact same lens.
When COVID hit the United States early – as you’ll recall – it was primarily a Washington, California, New York, New Jersey, and New Orleans (a heavily black city) problem. It was the bluest of diseases. So why bother?
That seemed to be their attitude and their approach. They didn’t create a national response because the disease didn’t impact “their part” of the nation. There has never been a president who has ever simply abandoned whole sections of the country as “against him” and thus not worthy of his attention or care – never.
Until these guys.
“Kushner’s team expressed: that because the virus had hit blue states hardest, a national plan was unnecessary and would not make sense politically.”
They played politics with our lives. Over 154,000 Americans have paid the price. https://t.co/2l725zz1H6

From Vanity Fair:
Most troubling of all, perhaps, was a sentiment the expert said a member of Kushner’s team expressed: that because the virus had hit blue states hardest, a national plan was unnecessary and would not make sense politically. “The political folks believed that because it was going to be relegated to Democratic states, that they could blame those governors, and that would be an effective political strategy,” said the expert.
That logic may have swayed Kushner. “It was very clear that Jared was ultimately the decision maker as to what [plan] was going to come out,” the expert said.
Holy sh*t, that little ffff, how many have died because “a national plan was unnecessary and would not make “sense politically?”
They are playing with people’s lives and we have proof, now, that they’ll throw away thousands of lives and blame someone else – if it makes sense politically.
Jared Kushner really has blood on his hands.

Jared Kushner, like @realDonaldTrump, makes things worse. I can’t tell if it’s because he is incompetent, or malicious, or both. As a result, we have one of the worst pandemic responses in the world. Over 152,000 Americans have died from the virus & the number continues to rise. https://t.co/rbWoAWieSx

If Trump is reelected, Jared Kushner will be in charge of distributing vaccines. Think about that.

We can’t lose sight of this.
Not for one second.
trump & his criminal syndicate of an “administration” don’t care about Americans.
If your granny died in NY, that would have been good for them politically.
Its not incompetence.
It’s sick.
It’s sinister.
It’s monstrous.
It’s evil.— Jo (@JoJoFromJerz) July 31, 2020
Holy Crap! This is an act of premeditated genocide. The GOP COVID task force didn’t care if it was the people in blue states who suffered & died! Not that they care about the people in red states either. Vote so that all these bastards are removed from power and then jail them!

The deaths of thousands of liberals makes it all the better for the GOP and Trump’s election, right? This is flat out evil. I’m not surprised they’d sink this low. They lock children in cages, so killing blue state liberals isn’t much of a stretch. Vote Trump and the GOP out!

Four Americans died in Benghazi and the GOP held hearings for years.
150,000 Americans have died because Jared Kushner figured they could paint it as a blue state problem, and the GOP thinks the White House is doing a great job. https://t.co/KBERX8Fq7a pic.twitter.com/4DKaxZux7n

I know it’s verging on hyperbole to call Trumpism a #DeathCult — but this detailed examination of the Trump admin’s disastrously bungled #COVID19 non-response is chilling. NOTE Jared Kushner & his team’s take on treating Blue states as sacrificial political offerings of death💀. https://t.co/4FzHxkYkla
