@WeThePeople I differ with your 'who is to blame' proposition, I think this is uniquely Trump and his cronies of the last few years who have lessened our ability to respond and still are. I would agree that Congress has dropped certain parts of this effort but when you put an administration in power 3 years ago who advocates the destruction of existing systems on top of 8 solid years of pure Republican obstructionism, well that's the schema I use to evaluate where we are.

For the life of all of us, I truly do not understand why he is not other than paving the way for the demise of America as we thought we knew it.
@Madken65 @WeThePeople Because he’s a malignant narcissist. Everything is about him. He can’t plan. It’s whatever is happening in the moment. He’s not coordinating with Putin. He’s just a useful idiot.
