He did declare a public emergency on January 31 and initiated the China travel ban.
But, Pelosi and other Dems were trying to undermine that. Pelosi was in San Francisco China Town telling people that everything was fine, and tourists should all come to San Francisco at the end of February. Dems were doing the same thing in NY. Biden said the travel ban was xenophobic.
Now, Pelosi says Trump should have locked down the country while the impeachment trial she initiated in January, in the middle of all this, was proceeding? Don't you think that sounds a little disingenuous (and politically motivated) for her to say that?
