    Were you trying to make Trump look bad comparing this to Vietnam? My father-in-law was a Marine and served in Vietnam. He recently passed away after years of suffering from the effects of Agent Orange. What a stupid comparison.

    A war and the Chinese Virus are two drastically different things. When the models were calling for two million dead, and we are where we are...Trump deserves a lot of credit for saving millions of lives.

    Why? I don't recall Obama being called in front of Congress to talk about Beneghazi.

    Moreover, it's nothing like Beneghazi...the Obama admin lied about what happened, and attempted to cover it up...the Trump admin has been massively transparent about the Chinese Virus

    ok, call the Trump admin in, all the people involved

    let's investigate it over and over and over like the right did Benghazi

    Trump lied to the American people about Covid19, over and over

    Obama never lied about Benghazi, that was a terrorist attack, Obama handled it better than Bush handled 911 or Trump handle this crisis

    You really don't know what you're talking about with regards to everything going on do you?

    Um, it's a novel virus. That means even the US scientists 1. didn't even know it was in the US cause China kept it a secret 2. Didn't know anything about it cause China kept it a secret.

    OMG the Obama admin repeatedly said it was because of a video....not at terrorist attack.

    I am sure once it's all over there will be some oversight....some officals have already gone in front of Congress, including Dr. Fauci.

    But this has been quite open and transparent....Trump has repeatedly given the press access to his team. This actually maybe one of the most transparently handled issues in my lifetime.

    Trump never banned Americans from traveling to China, in fact 40k+ traveled to and from after his so called travel ban

    that bought us some time, yes, what did trump do with that time, order supplies, prepare? nope, he went golfing and did political rallies

    I suppose that goes for the leaders in the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, and all over the world where this Wuhan virus has been killing people. You need to just blame it on all the leaders of all the nations. I'm sure you won't blame any of this on China, right? Why are you people such flag waivers for China, you disgust me

    Quite amazing that Dr. Fauci said that on Feb. 17 and Pelosi invited everyone to Chinatown on Feb. 24th with 1800 deaths and 70,000 cases in Wuhan with people being carted around on isolation bubble gurney's.

    I had four months of provisions and supplies laid in by the first week of February -- not because I knew what would happen, but because I didn't know what would happen and it looked to be damn bad.

    exactly, the president did not prepare, I was like you, stocking up on meat in the freezer and stuff, preparing for the worst, hoping for the best

    Fauci said at that moment the risk was low of catching, but in a months time it could escalate or die off.... that is the time to prepare, not ignore it

    plus I knew he only said it could die off with the heat was due to his boss saying that previously, because he followed up with it was 80 degrees over there, so doubted that scenario

    Any person with an internet connection can do a search and find out that President Trump was making the same comments about covid-19 virus that his experts, doctor Fauci and doctor Brix, were making.

    President Trump's experts were the ones saying that this Wigan flu was comparable to the seasonal flu, it wasn't something Americans should worry about, and that it was a very low risk for American citizens. They said that if it did cross our Shores our medical community what deal with it and keep it under control

    Trump put the first travel ban in on January 31. But I agree that he should have scared the ever-loving hell out of people using very rough corona death verbiage and immediately shut down all borders, airports, and ports, putting the Coast Guard on high alert, and throwing illegals back across the border.

    Trump should have been a no apologies hardass and used an iron fist.

    Sure he did....Chinese were not allowed in our country....obviously Americans could come home.

    Not sure why you'd allow Americans to die overseas.....but hey....whatever.....

    They know how Coronaviruses behave in general and they also know how to fight a pandemic. But Donald doesn't trust them. Donald is on war with science and rationality. A war that he can't win. It's not a shame for him personally, but he is destroying the lives of thousands of innocent Americans. :(

    If it were me they would have been on their own if they departed after Feb. 1st. We had idiots from here who departed as late as March 12, and still thought they should get help. And Trump did help them.
