He didn’t shut down flights to China. He banned Chinese from coming to the USA but allowed family of US citizens and US citizens to re-enter at will.
And left the same loophole open when he did the same with Italy... and exempted all of the UK.
Trump could win if he stopped saying he doesn’t take any responsibility for what’s going on.
He talks of a broken system. He had a chance to fix it with control in the house for 2 years and couldn’t get that done.
Happy to discuss as long we discuss his response and not the politics of it. I don’t want a ban as this is an informative thread.
I didn’t see your original post or questions. What’s on your mind?
We're pretty much on the same page Pookie.
Closing flights coming from China has/had pretty much NOTHING to do with preventing or slowing down the spread.
Canada never blocked flights from China, and Asian countries who have, literally, thousands and thousands of people coming in and out of China daily, like, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, etc, etc, the list goes on. Tons of countries, again, including Canada, never blocked flights from China YET, have been able to get control of the virus. WHY, testing testing testing. That's right, Test, Track, Trace.
Plus, blocking flights from China couldn't keep the virus out anyways, because, people just go through other countries to get into the US. How many people crossed every day into the US from Canada, people, who might have come from China, or the thousands of people who just took a flight somewhere else instead of coming directly from China.
Canada just finally shut down travel from EVERYWHERE, including China, and that's good, but, we've been taking in people from China all along, but, we don't have 1/10 (which is about the ratio of our population to the US) of the problem that the US has and is going to have, very sad in the US.
GOD, I wish I was so wrong about this, but, I don't think I am.
Late late late testing, and pretending they didn't have to test, which was the message from POTUS right from the start just set everything off on a disastrous course.
God, I wish I was wrong, but, I don't think I am.
New York, so many people, so many people, are going to die ,
WHY,
WHY
WHY
WHY
NOT ENOUGH PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT FOR THE HEALTH CARE WORKERS,
The richest country in the world, suppose to be the GREATEST country in the WORLD.
because they didn't TEST, TRACK, AND TRACE, from the beginning.
All they had to do was
TEST TRACK TRACE
noooo, it's just 10 and it'll go away ......
