    Trump blames Obama for leaving him with “broken tests” for a virus that didn’t exist.

    https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/mar/31/donald-trump/trump-blames-past-administrations-flawed-covid-19-/

    Apparently Trump has been peddling that particular lie for a whole month, initially on “Fox and a Friends” on March 30, 2020; and he was still peddling it as recently as yesterday, April 30, 2020.

      That's OK. Obama blamed everything on Bush. I'd say we are setting an awful precedent, but there you go.

        Really it comes down to King George III.

            They were originally going to call the movie 'The Madness of George III', but they figured people would think it was a sequel - true story, that's the name of the original Alan Bennett play

            I was only joking

                  Blame is the go to for everyone. It’s the premise for almost all news.
