      If you could name one person to be a Coronavirus Czar -- someone with broad powers -- who would it be? Elizabeth Warren comes to mind. Maybe Bezos? Who else?

      The first thing would have to be getting the president* out of the way. That could prove difficult.

          POLL: Trump should resign. And we should say so even if he won't. He lost the credibility needed to lead us through this crisis long ago I generally don't like talking about what Trump should do or GOP should do when we know they won't This is the exception 1/3
