1) Jan. 31: In response to Trump’s travel ban, Biden says “this is no time for Donald Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia – hysterical xenophobia.”
2) Early February: Biden public health advisory committee member says the coronavirus is less lethal than the SARS virus and a top aide says this “is probably not a serious epidemic.”
3) Mid February: Top Biden adviser says “we don”t have a Covid epidemic, we have a fear epidemic.”
4) Late February: Biden health adviser Zeke Emmanuel says many experts view the virus “like the flu” and expect it to dissipate with warmer weather moving to the southern hemisphere. Masks will not help, he adds.
5) Early March: Biden holds a mass indoor rally and criticizes the European travel ban as ineffective and “counterproductive.”
6) Mid March: Regarding Trump’s January 31st decision to close travel to China, Biden says “stop the xenophobic fear mongering.
Not that truth matters to Biden, but I have to laugh as Biden accuses Trump of what he actually did (liberalism 101) wrt mismanagement of the epidemic, and then Chris says that he is "fundamentally a good man" because he read off a prepared sheet that he would be a force for the light, not the darkness. Lol.
I suppose that he can always hide behind his dementia.
Anyways, this is for those interested in the truth as well as those with selective memories.

Never mind the data.

Especially since most of the dead were really slow drivers.

Hint: no. He was going on public info.
This line of attack will not work on Diamond J.
WHO on it's word without seeing data.
They also gave grossly exagerrated death rates which effected the Shut Down of the greatest economic boom in our history.
They also said don't wear masks, then do wear masks, and now admit the home made masks are fucking ridiculous like I told you all along.
They said to take temps, but now they say Temps are not accurate and unnecessary.
They said that the immunity won't protect as the virus mutates and then later that it will.
They said initially that all we can really hope to do is flatten the curve (true), and then they went political and pretended that wearing a fucking home made mask and distancing would somehow spare you exposure.
They acted on fake data from fake studies.....
...shall I go on?
Trump got respirators pronto, he restocked the depleted US PPE reserves ( I know that nobody knew this was coming, but since you blame trump, guess who depleted these?)
He fast tracked the vaccine process with the FDA as well as with Remsdesivir.
He blocked travel from China and Wuhan against Joe Biden's objection and criticism.
And he did it all against the Left's constant and complete resistance and fear mongering (MSM is part of the Left now without even hiding it anymore) for election purposes.
Trump has done at minimum done a good job, and Biden cannot possibly throw stones.
The only argument that you can make is that like H1N1, the MSM would not have made any deal of the infection, and we simply would have dealt with it out of ignorance rather than choice while the govt said nothing like in 2009 where a state of emergency wasn't declared by the president until more than 25,000 Americans were dead from Swine Flu.

unlike the golfer in chief who was more interested in tweeting how everyone hated him and he didn't get impeached because Mueller exonerated him.
for weeks to months longer - which would have been worse epidemiologically than any of the claims you make against Trump.
It was a novel event. You see a political opportunity to get to Trump, I get it. But you hated him so much before this started, and you have a media full of left wing haters feeding you such biased info that your perception of events is heavily skewed.
The simple act of the China travel ban, done boldly despite political criticism from Biden et al, saved more lives and bought more time than any single other action so far. The fast tracking of the FDA process will overtake that soon, i hope.
Lost in all of this is the fact that the WHO deceived us all at China's behest. And you still say nothing about the threat from the actual source, and instead reserve 99% of your venom for the US president instead - even when we all know that China let this happen purposely.
Time Trump completely wasted.
We failed to stop the virus. Spin it however you like.

Sure Biden said some dumb things in the beginning. Trump said many more dumb things, and he kept saying dumb things as we learned more and more. He's been blowing smoke up everyone's ass from day 1
Jan. 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.” — Trump in a CNBC interview.
Jan. 30: “We think we have it very well under control. We have very little problem in this country at this moment — five — and those people are all recuperating successfully. But we’re working very closely with China and other countries, and we think it’s going to have a very good ending for us … that I can assure you.” — Trump in a speech in Michigan.
Feb. 10: “Now, the virus that we’re talking about having to do — you know, a lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat — as the heat comes in. Typically, that will go away in April. We’re in great shape though. We have 12 cases — 11 cases, and many of them are in good shape now.” — Trump at the White House. (See our item “Will the New Coronavirus ‘Go Away’ in April?“)
Feb. 14: “There’s a theory that, in April, when it gets warm — historically, that has been able to kill the virus. So we don’t know yet; we’re not sure yet. But that’s around the corner.” — Trump in speaking to National Border Patrol Council members.
Feb. 23: “We have it very much under control in this country.” — Trump in speaking to reporters.
Feb. 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries. CDC & World Health have been working hard and very smart. Stock Market starting to look very good to me!” — Trump in a tweet.
Feb. 26: “So we’re at the low level. As they get better, we take them off the list, so that we’re going to be pretty soon at only five people. And we could be at just one or two people over the next short period of time. So we’ve had very good luck.” — Trump at a White House briefing.
Feb. 26: “And again, when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.” — Trump at a press conference.
Feb. 26: “I think every aspect of our society should be prepared. I don’t think it’s going to come to that, especially with the fact that we’re going down, not up. We’re going very substantially down, not up.” — Trump at a press conference, when asked if “U.S. schools should be preparing for a coronavirus spreading.”
Feb. 27: “It’s going to disappear. One day — it’s like a miracle — it will disappear.” — Trump at a White House meeting with African American leaders.
Feb. 29: “And I’ve gotten to know these professionals. They’re incredible. And everything is under control. I mean, they’re very, very cool. They’ve done it, and they’ve done it well. Everything is really under control.” — Trump in a speech at the CPAC conference outside Washington, D.C.
March 4: “[W]e have a very small number of people in this country [infected]. We have a big country. The biggest impact we had was when we took the 40-plus people [from a cruise ship]. … We brought them back. We immediately quarantined them. But you add that to the numbers. But if you don’t add that to the numbers, we’re talking about very small numbers in the United States.” — Trump at a White House meeting with airline CEOs.
March 4: “Well, I think the 3.4% is really a false number.” — Trump in an interview on Fox News, referring to the percentage of diagnosed COVID-19 patients worldwide who had died, as reported by the World Health Organization. (See our item “Trump and the Coronavirus Death Rate.”)
March 7: “No, I’m not concerned at all. No, we’ve done a great job with it.” — Trump, when asked by reporters if he was concerned about the arrival of the coronavirus in the Washington, D.C., area.
March 9: “So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths. Think about that!” — Trump in a tweet.
March 10: “And we’re prepared, and we’re doing a great job with it. And it will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.” — Trump after meeting with Republican senators.
March 24: "I would love to have the country opened up and just raring to go by Easter," the president said of easing social distancing guidelines in parts of the country."
"I think Easter Sunday — you'll have packed churches all over our country." — Fox News town hall.
March 24: "There is tremendous hope as we look forward and we begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel." — White House Coronavirus Task Force Press briefing.
March 29: "The better you do, the faster this whole nightmare will end. Therefore, we will be extending our guidelines to April 30th to slow the spread. ... We can expect that, by June 1st, we will be well on our way to recovery. We think, by June 1st, a lot of great things will be happening." — White House Rose Garden press conference.
April 3: "I said it was going away - and it is going away." — White House Coronavirus Task Force Briefing.
April 15: “We think some of the states can actually open up before the deadline of May 1. And I think that that will be a very exciting time indeed.”— Trump, in a task force briefing, teasing an announcement about new guidelines for states to begin to lift social distancing requirements. Trump said there were at least 20 states “in extremely good shape.”

for weeks if not months.
Trump's China ban obviously helped control the size of the first wave.
The second surge of this, which we are now in the middle of, is entirely on him and everyone else that downplayed this.
place to be saying anything right now".
Much of what Trump has tried to do during this time is tamp down the fear being intentionally flamed by the media to squelch Trump's great economy before the election. He has been literally trying to carry the burden of restarting the economy all on his own, even though the decisions rest constitutionally with the governors. He has had to fight the media, Chinese propaganda spin, congressional democrats who want to add in their own wish list to COVID relief bills, opportunists from BLM who have been rioting in the streets, absurd medical advice from Fauci which would suggest that protests don't spread the virus, but Trump Rallies do and that block offlabel use of a safe and innocuous drug before there is evidence to do so, and even swamp dwelling Republicans who want their old influence back.
The guy has been a rock. we DO need to pull out of this before we kill our economy, and the cost of the cure has already exceeded the cost of the disease. It also doesn't help when the media is trying to trap him at every turn as he takes thousands of ufiltered, hostile, loaded questions while Biden isn't asked even one.
