@CatIslandBoy… I hope you can appreciate that there is a vast difference between becoming a party leader and leading a country. They require different skill sets. The person who can become party leader will become PM whether they are qualified to lead a country or not, and we do not get to choose from the best because of the nature of politics.
… but while the mask makers are making their masks we on lockdown! When we get off lockdown, everybody will be running to the grocery store and water depots again with the masks they already have before the next lockdown, which can happen at any time. So who will the mask makers be selling masks to?
.. and there are those who believe Minnis is doing a good job with his erratic imbecilic decision making! Thank God this will all be over soon because due to his decisions everybody has already been exposed. We just have to wait and see who gets sick or dies over the next two weeks. Within one month things should have bottomed out and we can get back to work!
...if the Bahamas really wants to be up the creek without a paddle, let them construct a Huawei 5g network here. Trump knows how to hit where it hurts. Even China was forced to make a trade deal while he sat and waited!!
… actually no! He is in the middle of a health crisis with inadequate stockpiles of necessary protective personal equipment for healthcare workers. GM motors the car company Is making ventilators for gods sake! The war powers act has been invoked for companies to make other necessary products. Any leader who does not act in the best interest of their citizens should not be in power, except in the Bahamas where we reward incompetence!
It is our fault that we did not anticipate that we would need PPE supplies when there was no ban on them from January or February 2020!!

… umm the assumption you are making is that the one making the decisions has a rational mind. The cumulative evidence thus far says otherwise!

@pileit … I saw a news report on cable yesterday that stated Mexico declined an offer of Chinese face masks because of their unreliability!
