Great leadership on this whole mask thing, President Trump!

That's unfortunate, but it happened in NY, so no one should be surprised. The leadership there is horrible. Maybe we should defund governor and his staff.
That's funny. Back when Obama was President, Trump's mantra was "Leadership - whatever happens, you're responsible. Whatever doesn't happen, you're responsible".
Now that he's in the White House, it's become "I don't take responsibility at all".
Anyway, Americans don't like leaders that pass the buck. That's one of many reasons why Trump's days in the White House are numbered.
Regarding your "defund" comment, Trump has refused so far to provide anymore financial assistance to state and local governments that have been devastated by the fallout from the Trump virus. Do you know who pays the police? Yes, the state and local governments. Where I live, the county has proposed a budget which cuts funds to the police department by $20 million, unless federal aid is provided. So, on the one hand I have Biden, who has said repeatedly that he will not "defund" police departments, and on the other hand I have Trump who actually is defunding police departments. It's not really a tough choice, for me at least.
