Gosh....what's happened in the last week with respect to this story? Spread to Italy? Spread amongst people within an American community? Major city declaring State of Emergency? Markets tanking because of fears this thing further spreading and disrupting commerce? All those things happened recently.....which might reflect a change in tone of what's being reported. And Trump does not help himself when he tweets what I posted above. When the Prez says stupid, goofy sh!t, people are going to call him out on it. The tone shifted to orange man bad, as it always does in any circumstance. They're pathetic and so are those of you who buy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Markets start to dip and it becomes this conspiracy against Trump. That's not rational. Neither is supporting someone if they killed someone on 5th Avenue....but that's not my problem. Wait.

TBayXXXVII 2,558 Posted February 27, 2020 For once, I'd like for the Democrats to just be honest. I know it's a lot to ask for, but for the almost 40 years of life, I'd like for once... for them to be honest. Can they just come out and say "We're writing up terms of impeachment based on the fact that Donald Trump is not a Democrat." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It shouldn't have taken him 6 weeks to get a task force together and name a czar. (the fact that he named Mike Pence that czar is another story). He shouldn't have been making tweets and announcements that this is under control and looks to be ending. He shouldn't have announced that it will go away once warm weather hits. He should have had the the heads of CDC organizing with hospitals to make sure we had plenty of test kits on hand. By the way, I have never been the head of a world or national health organization. So I don't know all the specifics, but I do know that our president shouldn't be contradicting health experts to help his political agenda. Just yesterday, one of those experts said that the spread of this throughout the country is inevitable. Minutes later, Trump went to the microphone and said he disagrees that it's inevitable. The guy who thinks you can get windmill noise cancer is contradicting a health expert on infectious disease because he doesn't want a hit to the stock market and lose approval points.

It is widely believed that it will disappear once warmer weather hits. Are you still afraid you might get SARS? If a health expert believes the spread is inevitable, that means nothing can be done to stop it, by definition. Do you know if someone is working on a vaccine behind the scenes perhaps? Lastly, isn't this situation the perfect reinforcement for an America First agenda, whereby manufacturing is shifted away from China and back to the United States?
