It doesn't take big government for a president to not act like a douche.
It doesn't take big government to stop sending our money to foreign countries.
It doesn't take big government to send disaster aid to it's citizens.
But it did take big government to not issue warnings, to turn off the water, to cut communications, to block people from fleeing, and to chase off the media.
As for option 3, I remember you and others of your ilk politicizing the Covid-19 disaster to attack your political rivals.
I know, I know....that's different.
What a joke.
