Re: Random Political Comments
If he believed that, he would not have suspended travel. The key is to not cause a public panic. This thing was looming for months and he was clearly aware of it if he ignored the dumbasses in the WHO who told him it wasn't contagious.Headhunter wrote:And what else did he do? Everything’s fine.

Nancy Pelosi: Come to Chinatown!

You keep repeating the one thing he did that was hardly effective while ignoring the next six weeks where he didn’t do a fucking thing. He has blood on his hands.

It achieves nothing but these things never do.
The biggest issue in EVERY country is underestimating the spread and failing to ramp up testing.

You're insane. You refuse to give credit where it's due. The only blood on anyone's hands is on China and the WHO. Nobody else. Suspending travel likely saved hundreds of thousands of lives. There is no blood on this hands, at this point it's how many lives can be saved due to China and the WHO causing this thing to damage the entire world.Headhunter wrote:You keep repeating the one thing he did that was hardly effective while ignoring the next six weeks where he didn’t do a fucking thing.

Re: Random Political Comments
Trump did more, is doing more, and will continue to do more than anyone did about this virus. The only people killing anyone are the incompetent bat-eating communists in China and the WHO for covering it up. Focus blame where it should be, not where you want it to be. Standing on the graves of people who died from Covid-19 so you can try to rationalize the Orange Man Bad mentality is cruel. Credit where it's due. The only number here is how many lives can be saved and how many deaths can be prevented from the corrupt communists in China and the WHO.Headhunter wrote:Trump did nothing for six weeks and killed Americans.Jason wrote:You're insane.

Re: Random Political Comments
Playing golf, bitching about Democrats and doing rallies was more important to Trump than taking action in a six week window that would have prevented thousands of American deaths.
And he takes “no responsibility”. Fuck him.

Re: Random Political Comments
After the largely ineffective travel ban, what steps did Trump take in the following 1.5 months (Feb. 1st - Mar. 17th) to fight the spread of the virus? Nothing. Just played golf and bitched.

Nobody is ready. Trying to stop an extremely contagious virus is like trying to stop the wind.
