Timeline of President Trump's response to the Kung Flu. Debunks every Democrat claim.

How did the pandemic response team do..oh wait..forgot Trump took 'care' of that.



As if the ChiComms would have allowed them anywhere near Wuhan. Because they wouldn't even allow them in the country. Trump offered to send CDC experts for "more than a month".

Now, this article is dated February 7, 2020.

For more than a month, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been offering to send a team of experts to China to observe its coronavirus outbreak and help if it can.

Normally, teams from the agency’s Epidemic Intelligence Service can be in the air within 24 hours.

But no invitation has come — and no one can publicly explain why.


 
Still not a single coherent response from the Dimwinger hoard here. :abgg2q.jpg:
