1) Libs will never, ever, ever give up on this chance to finally harpoon their great orange whale that they have stalked through the seven seas and the maelstrom and back without success.
2) China didn’t just lie about the virus, they made up false data.
3) The WHO screwed up by blindly trusting a untrustworthy source - (btw this is is reminiscent of our concerns the international oversight of Iran in the Iran Deal). WHO issues a tweet on Jan 14 that it isn’t transmitting human to human.
4) Our CDC trusted the WHO
5) Our President, Donald J Trump trusted the experts from the CDC initially after being reassured by their advice
6) Reports of China kicking out journalists start, and China lies more about the situation.
7) Despite neither the WHO nor the CDC yet being willing to call this virus a pandemic, Trump decides to ban travel to China despite massive negative impact to economy that will result in an election year. Trump put the country ahead of himself.
This move proves to be the single biggest effect on “flattening the curve” to date.
8). Liberals and msm immediately call Trump racist for banning China travel.
9) Trump discovers in ensuing weeks that the pandemic response plans in our country are woefully lacking and reorganizes the structure bringing in private industry to help in an unprecedented move.
10) Ventilator shortage mentioned by conor- 2010 Obamacare guidelines go into effect. Specific taxes and regulations on medical device makers eliminates ability to make ventilators affordable much less in volume.
Trump removes such regulations as Virus hits the US and the world.
11). Trump restricts travel first to Italy and specific hot spots, and then to Europe and the UK despite their protests that they wanted a say in the matter.
12) Trump brings 2 parties together for massive relief packages for the newly unemployed
13). Imagine if a weaker economy had to endure this.
14). Who has shown himself to be the president who will know best how to help the economy fight back?
Sounds like reasonable leadership to me.
