Would you have voted for a party that spent $1b annually on mask manufacturing subsidies for masks nobody even bought? I would have voted for a party with a program of "bring the manufacture of strategically crucial items back to the US and make it robust". This seems like it would even be Republican "bread and butter" and I don't see why either party had an issue with it.
