A good troll can be amusing. But on a comedy scale of 1 to 100, his posts were a 0.

The beautiful thing about being the leader of a well designed, functioning bureaucracy is that when something isn't in your wheelhouse (which is everything for Dougie, he can't even print fucking labels well), you get the fuck out of the way and allow the people already being paid to manage that shit, to do their jobs.
So yeah, Dougie has done pretty well (one march break gaff that was dumb, but whatever). But his job here is pretty simple. Make encouraging sounds with his mouth, do what the public health people tell him needs to be done, and open the wallet as necessary.
It's only properly inept idiots fully incapable of getting out of their own way that would fail hard here. Providing that you've got the people and the tools to manage the issue.

Never liked anything about Ford, but at the very least, he's always been a human being. And for sure the tone he's taken since his comment that people should still go away for Spring break is nice to see.

The Doctor Who Helped Defeat Smallpox Explains What's Coming
LARRY BRILLIANT SAYS he doesn’t have a crystal ball. But 14 years ago, Brilliant, the epidemiologist who helped eradicate smallpox, spoke to a TED audience and described what the next pandemic would look like. At the time, it sounded almost too horrible to take seriously. “A billion people would get sick," he said. “As many as 165 million people would die. There would be a global recession and depression, and the cost to our economy of $1 to $3 trillion would be far worse for everyone than merely 100 million people dying, because so many more people would lose their jobs and their health care benefits, that the consequences are almost unthinkable.”

It is unthinkable. Because it’s not going to happen.
