As sad as it is, I hope all those who voted for this are willing to accept the fate bestowed upon us from our 2016 election and the political stonewalling from both parties.

No you didn't. Though there appears to be some ignorance in your question regarding the handling of the situation by the current administration. Misleading the public, making false claims, punting all decisions to states, all will be used as a scapegoat to not assume any responsibility for the state of things today. Claiming your inauguration was the biggest ever is funny, misleading the public during a pandemic is unacceptable.

You forgot the disbanding of the pandemic task force years ago that could have caught sight of the virus in November and acted swiftly on it.

The list goes on and on, people need to hold our elected officials accountable for their decisions. That includes our whitehouse and as important is Congress. This includes both parties.
