US cases are about to surge exponentially, where they will stop nobody knows
OH NO! HERE IT COMES! ANOTHER GOTTA BLAME TRUMP BASHING THREAD!
Oh no here it is another Trump sheep in denial of reality. When did you realize Bush failed us in his response to Katrina?
How many US cases will it take for you to realize trump failed in his response to this virus?
Trump January 24: "It will all work out well."
January 30: “We think we have it very well under control. We have very little problem in this country at this moment — five. And those people are all recuperating successfully. But we’re working very closely with China and other countries, and we think it’s going to have a very good ending for it. So that I can assure you.”
February 14: “We have a very small number of people in the country, right now, with it. It’s like around 12. Many of them are getting better. Some are fully recovered already. So we’re in very good shape.”
February 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. … Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”
February 26: “Because of all we’ve done, the risk to the American people remains very low. … When you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero. That’s a pretty good job we’ve done."
February 28: “It’s going to disappear. One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”
March 9: “So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths. Think about that!”
We have thousands before he reaches the Obama failure reacting to the swine flu.
See there's your partisanship. W didn't fail New Orleans, true. But Katrina was not the first time the City sacrificed thousands of blacks. And there was no human way to really have an evacuation plan for the numbers of really poor people. The buses …. that was the Plan, but no one remotely believed it would work. What would work is getting all those poor people to move to …. Houston. But Obama didn't fail in H1N1. It was what it was. 60 million - 2 natl emergency declarations and finally a vaccine. What Trump has done is simply not do anything until he had no political choice, and even then what he chooses to do is really nothing. So governors and hospitals are left doing what they can.
Finally, belatedly, he announces an emergency … And still there's no testing, no new beds, no new ventilators … but hey … it the virus blows away, we'll be fine and so will Trump. So it is what it is.
Trump back in January stopped travel to and from China. You loons called him racist. I'm surprised you had the time while you were trying to impeach him. No matter what Trump does you still gonna whine.
I didn't call him anything. But travel bans are ineffective when the virus is already within borders. Trump is simply betting the farm that his refusals to make the calls to shut down sporting events and restaurants colleges and do millions of tests per week and early quarantines of cities will not result in hospitals being overwhelmed. Time will tell whether his bet pays off
