Former Biden Coronavirus Adviser: Pandemic Was Worse Because Americans Didn't Sacrifice Enough
2021-06-15
[Red State] Andy Slavitt was Joe Biden’s senior adviser to the COVID response team. He just stepped down from the position last week and now has a new book he’s hawking on all the networks, "Preventable: The Inside Story of How Leadership Failures, Politics, and Selfishness Doomed the U.S. Coronavirus Response."

What a coincidence, I’m sure that his leaving isn’t at all timed to coincide with the book coming out. Did it factor into his joining the administration? This is just wrong to try to profit off the pandemic with a book. Yes, he’s no longer with the Biden team but that doesn’t make it any less scummy.

But on top of that all, he’s now trying to hype the book by lying about President Donald Trump and actually disparaging the American people.

#16  "State" is a racist colonizer term. The references should be to "Algonquin lands" or "Seminole lands".

#10  #7 We wouldn't actually have to sacrifice them, although I'm fine with the concept. Just make them pass a high school math exam from the 1950's.

Just ONE person's opinion, frankly he is entitled to it.

And given his education a poor one: Andy Slavitt's age is 54. American businessman who made a name for himself as an Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. He is also the founder of the company Health Allies and worked as its CEO until 2003. The 54-year-old entrepreneur was born in United States. He received his MBA from Harvard Business School in 1993.


I don't agree with his opinion

- Our society has been attacked with a man-engineered virus, we were lied to at the get-go by alleged medical experts, no amount of Monday Morning Quarterbacking will change our past experience, ever. It was lived and it is fading into the past, onward to the future.

Time to move on, look forward to the life you have left, get busy and live.
