The fish rots from the head.

As the virus spread from China across the United States between January and early March, large-scale testing of people who might have been infected did not happen. Because of technical flaws, regulatory hurdles, business-as-usual bureaucracies and lack of leadership at multiple levels.

The result was a lost month, when the world’s richest country with the highly trained scientists and infectious disease specialists, missed its best chance of containing the virus’s spread . . . . spin that.
I didn't miss anything. Your bullet points are not a revelation. You and the media have given us a repetition of timelines aplenty. I posted the video merely as a response to your video. Personally, I didn't see much of a reaction by Birx in the video you posted. Maybe it's there and I don't want to see it. If it is there, it certainly isn't very pronounced. But I think your point was that she was dismayed, or disgusted, or annoyed, or something negative toward Trump's comments. The video I posted didn't back that notion up at all, but even seemed complimentary to Trump.

And there are other timelines that don't blame Trump. And more than one thing was said by Trump on those particular days and on other days. Other politicians and medical experts have timelines of saying things that are supportive of Trump and/or are similar to various things Trump said. It's a trick to pick various statements Trump made on various days, all of which are Trump negative, but disregard all other things Trump has said and done.

In particular, Trump saying supportive things about adversaries with whom he is negotiating is very common, and are often inconsistent, and I have always taken them with a grain of salt. His actions speak much louder than the sometimes strange way he speaks. I like a lot of what he has done. I understand that you need to spin his words and create or paste timelines in a certain way. Knock yourself out.
