Hold Pence accountable to these promises.... we are still waiting for google website nationwide, tests for all who need it, ventilators, managed supply chain and a President who cares more about people than ratings.

Absolutely criminal! Why pull back on testing in the middle of a pandemic unless they don't want to help diagnose the sick? And that's the point. They don't want the public to find out half a million Americans will be sick in a few days; and a million in a few weeks for politics.

It’s needed.

Why is the federal government abandoning Americans? We as voters put them there to do a job. And they have failed miserably. We need to vote them all out starting with the main buffoon

Find This... WakeUpAmerica

Which means that they plan determine that it isn't necessary. He's basically saying 'trust us' which is terrifying.

Hey don't hurt yourself with helping States out...we only have about 228,000,000 who need testing.

Pence has become a master at answering tough questions by bullshitting a lengthy response but totally avoiding giving a direct answer AND being able to keep a straight face.

Isnt lying a sin still?

I am with questions established pictures online science writing books in my class

Please strengthen the prevention and control, even if your economy goes back 60 years ago, you should know that life is the most important, money is not important! Power doesn't matter. When it matters, sacrifice the president and politicians of the United States!!

Where’s RobertIrvine to put some passion back into these politicians? They run the government like a failing restaurant!

They shouldn't get help

Find the medication to detoleriate and suppress the virus not the vaccine that won't be effective and that Will take time don't take this outbrek to make money the vaccine should be there like for HIV you failed how are you going to succeed this

this is necessary...

The federal government:

I need that stimulus check

if needed 🙄

In other news, Pence still doesn’t know how old the earth actually is.

And tRump will decide if they are needed.

Duh!
