    Dude, the entirety of Central and South America combined have fewer cases than the United States. The Southern Border is not a problem and no ****ing wall would have stopped this outbreak.

    Having rational and competent people in place from the beginning would have reduced the chance though.

    It is definitely the time to start preparing. Don't hoard, but start buy enough so that you could theoretically quarantine yourself for 2-3 weeks.

    Then what? Walk out, and catch it from someone who was not in quarantine?

    They fight for open borders all the time in court. Saying otherwise does not alter reality. As for ebola, many people came down with it inside the United States. It was in the news and everything. Even MSNBC covered it.

    Dude, they do not fight for open borders. They fight for civil rights and a limit on Trump's expansion of executive authority.

    And people came down with ebola specifically because they were healthcare workers brought home after being infected.

    They fight for open borders. The rest is just excuses. OPEN BORDERS . . . and then they WAIL about the Corona Virus and resulting deaths.

    Do you really think border policy would have stopped this? It's everywhere now. There was never any chance we were going to keep it out.

    Where border policy comes in is: what happens if the global economy tanks and massive waves of mexican/central American refugees, many of them sick, start trying to come here?

    Well we will never know now will we? Leftists fought tooth and nail to keep the flow of illegals coming Wide Full Open.

    They absolutely do not fight for open borders. Putting it in all caps makes your appear even more nonsensical.

    I think you will see a different reaction. My wife is as progressive as me and I put that question to her and she said: We have to take care of our own first.

    It's all fun and games until a virus shows up. But let's be clear about something: you guys did not want a wall built to protect us from pathogens. You did it because of demographic change.

    Typos are fun. When people point them out it shows that they are reading every word, which is a good thing.

    Steve's chart shows the number of children who died from the flu; it does not show the total number of people who died from the flu each year. He cleverly chopped it off to exclude the years under PODS trump.

    The coronavirus does not seem to be very contagious so there is no need to panic. And even if you do get infected chances are it won't kill you.

    Coronavirus actually started in 2019, but the Obama loving leftist liberals were too busy with impeachment and another Russian hoax to notice real world situations. Thank the good Lord that our current administration doesn’t waste time with nonsense and had the travel restrictions and mandatory quarantine procedures in place to minimize any further spread of this disease.

    Who is panicking? That's worse than understating/underestimating it.

    Lets see which takes more lives in the US this year. A disease that the left says is considered a worldwide pandemic that President Trump has done nothing about or murders on the streets of Chicago. There have been 68 homicides in Chicago in 2020.

    They want the deaths to them to try and highlight how Trump screwed this up. It's evident and not even hard to see. See the OP, the direct attack on Trump. Had to squeeze that in the first post did they? Tell me that is not politicizing the death.


    And you can stop with the be a better American mess, it's rather silly in this context.

    I'm betting on the Windy City.
