The only thing leftists will pick is the maximum amount of hysteria to get as much power for themselves as possible no matter who has to pay the price for it. It should be clear to reasonable people, of which there are fewer and fewer, that any draconian measures needed to be applied to the at-risk group, which in this case is people with pre-existing conditions and those over 65, which is basically the same risk group for flu complications. Everyone else could take basic precautions with no lockdown or quarantine.
Trump did what he could in a politically impossible situation. If he did nothing, he would be blamed for mass fatalities. If he locked everything down for months, so much damage would occur, creating so much unhappiness and despair, that he would be blamed for that, too, and any fatalities on top of it.
This is the problem with having a 98% democrat-voting media whose job is now to only get democrats elected, not to report what is actually taking place.
According to the original 20% death rate that triggered the global shutdown, there will be 16 dead NFL players this week. #RIP
Fauci predicted 1.8 - 2.2 million dead Americans. It is currently 10 times less than that. We destroyed the economy for no reason.
Either that or Trump saved 1.8 million lives! Pick one leftists.
