U.S. ‘wasted’ months before preparing for virus pandemic

Duplicate deleted.

 

Yeah, actually uncle Joe warned Trump in an op ed in January, but that was when Trump was in his we have it totally under control stage.

 

Bullcrap. You have been given the video of Biden telling us there was no need to shut down flights from China.

Or
Trump, Jan. 22: The president tells CNBC that “we have it totally under control” and “it’s going to be just fine.”


Top Biden adviser, Jan. 22: Ron Klain, a Biden adviser who managed the 2014 Ebola response, co-writes a piece excoriating Trump for “brashly” dismissing coronavirus as “under control,” while calling for “expertise” to “guide critical decisions” and noting “reasons for great concern.”
Trump, Jan. 24: Trump praises and gives thanks to China for its efforts to contain the coronavirus, and adds: “It will all work out well.”

Biden, Jan. 27: Biden publishes an op-ed in USA Today hitting Trump for “shortsighted policies" that "have left us unprepared for a dangerous epidemic,” and warning that the coronavirus “will get worse before it gets better.”

Trump, Jan. 30: Trump says at a rally in Michigan: “We think we have it very well under control.”

I have a video too.

 

So no one else in government could've done anything in January or February? Like maybe a house majority?

I'm fine with criticism of Trump but seems there are a lot of others being left out of the blame game

 

Oh yea we remember and we remember the last two weeks you guys have been touting 20-30 million infections in 2million deaths, what changed?

 

The shut down. Just goes to show you you should listen to the experts.

 

They either got the estimate horribly wrong then or the estimate now...

 

What shut down? All these states are stopping non essential work and labeling most people essential... It's like a shell game

 

And still it didn't work. Instead of developing a national testing program, he sat on his hands and whined about his impeachment. Until we have a national testing program, healthy people cannot get back to work. Everyone is assumed a carrier and the nation is shut down. What a waste. Trump is a Money monger science denier. The nations that start work first will hav3 a head up. Trump doesn't have a clue.

 

No shutdown in Sweden.

 

Most of the people I know are either working from home or have lost their jobs. But I would love to see your numbers.

 

I hear Boris wants to revisit his thoughts on that.

 

Uh huh you must be richer than me because my class can't swing sledgehammers from home or assemble wire harnesses from home.

Go out and see how much of the blue collar workers are deemed essential right now and get back to me

Wuhan reopened today.
It will be interesting to see if they can keep it open.

 

Can't you bring a board and some wire home and keep working?
You could probably make them for Trump's ventilators that are going to be months late.

 

Professional healthcare models have dropped their projections from 2 million american deaths to less than 80K and keep lowering their numbers as we speak. The democratic governors of New York and California have admitted that Trump and his administration have done and incredible job.

If saving hundreds of thousands of lives is not a definition of "it worked", you must be a Trump hating liberal who thinks that corrupt clinically insane Biden would have done a better job LOL,

seriously libs and progs, the US is doing way better than the overwhelming majority of major western European countries (with the exception of Germany), the number of fatalities per million of population is a fraction of those in the UK, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, lest we forget Spain and Italy. Get a clue. Jeez

PS lest we forget, if it was not for a monumental fu*ck up of Democrat governors of NY and NJ and Democrat mayors of NYC, Detroit and New Orleans, we would not know we have a pandemic. Duh.

 

You know how much Trump enjoys having the biggest and the best of anything? Well, we're currently number one on known infected, but we're still lagging behind Spain and Italy in number of deaths. Maybe he's secretly hoping for a record.</end sarcasm>

 

That's another Fake News Big Whopper. I assumed you knew.

"The concern was enough that the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, made a publicized stop this week in her home town’s Chinatown to implore people to “please come and visit and enjoy Chinatown”.

“We know that there is concern surrounding tourism, traveling all throughout the world, but we think it’s very safe to be in Chinatown and hope that others will come,” she said. “It’s lovely here.”"

When was this?

Weeks before Trump even BEGAN to take things seriously?

Back when Trump was telling us that he had it under control?

Newsflash...she implored people BACK THEN to social distance and they DID.

Notice San Fran is NOT a hot spot

Florida...ya know...where Trump didn't tell DiSantis to shut down till just last week...IS a hot spot

 

That's not up to me it's up to the companies.... And since people are generally lazy I doubt they'd want to do anymore work than possible

 

Who didn't listen to the experts?

 

Where last week Oregon said they were going to run out and today they're great and sending 500 to NY. Last week Cuomo was saying he needed 36 thousand ventilators and now today he said all hospitals have what they need right now. The federal government has 9,000 ready to go where needed and have thousands more being built and delivered daily. So tell us who is not going to have enough ventilators? I guess your following your WHO models again.

 

You.

 

Yeah, he got 140 from Oregon and a thousand from China. How embarrassing is that?
But I guess a good leader doesn't let something like that keep him from saving his people.
Edit:
Where did you hear Oregon said they were going to run out. Or did you just make that up.
