100,000 Are Dead of Covid-19 in America, and Their Blood Is on Trump’s Hands

[Earl]

"Former Vice President Joe Biden now says he supports travel bans to contain the Chinese coronavirus after all – after he previously called the China travel ban issued by President Donald Trump in late January “xenophobia.”

Deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield told CNN on April 3 that Biden “supports travel bans that are guided by medical experts, advocated by public health officials and backed by a full strategy,” adding, “Science supported this ban, therefore he did too.”

Was that before or after looking at a poll that said Trump would do a better job dealing with this crisis than Biden? Asking for the potentially hundreds of thousands of American lives President Trump saved by acting decisively in the early days of this pandemic at a time Biden was hysterically complaining about “reactionary” travel restrictions.

And why wasn’t Biden the first one explaining his new position on this issue? Why tell us now? And why pretend he was in favor of it all along when he never supported it at the time? Why not just admit he was wrong?

Biden not only didn’t support the ban, he explicitly opposed it, repeatedly saying it was unscientific, even though it turns out it ultimately was backed up by the science. Which, you don’t need a medical degree to understand. It’s just common sense. Travel restrictions are just another form of social distancing from those traveling from the hotspot at the time, which was China, to prevent the American people from coming into contact with others who had been exposed to the virus, just as not going to work if you’re sick might."

Hello Damocles,



Thanks for sharing your view of it. That makes me feel more confident in the validity of my own. I don't blame DT for anything anybody else did. And neither do I selectively absolve him of all responsibility nor give him undue credit.

Those 100K deaths? He owns the lion's share of that and America knows it.

It didn't have to be this way. Taiwan has 7 deaths total. They never shut down their economy. They got out in front of it.

The action HE took was nothing more than using the crisis to do what he wanted anyway, shutting down more immigration, lashing out at China. It was a revenge move to satisfy his long-standing grudge.

His early response was far too little, far too ineffective to test, learn, trace, isolate, control. He let it get completely OUT of control. If this had been handled properly we never would have had to shut down the economy. He totally OWNS unemployment now.

PoliTalker:

"Dive, market, DIVE!

Take DT down with you.

"Sometimes things have to get worse before they can get better.

We're going down.

BZZZZZT! BZZZZZT! BZZZZZT!

Dive! Dive! Dive!"

Well, that is not true, "it is not up to our government to ensure you are smart enough to get through things without them," certainly not the way Trump looked at it when he said he was the "war general," certainly he felt Americans needed his
leadership to "get through things,"

What part of that are you having a hard time understanding?

IT’S OFFICIAL: Donald Trump now has the blood of 100,000 people on his tiny hands.

On Wednesday, the coronavirus death toll in the United States crossed the 100,000 mark, according to Johns Hopkins University data.

One. Hundred. Thousand.

It’s difficult to comprehend the enormity, the sheer horror, of that six-figure number. For context, that’s more people than “ever died in a single year from HIV/AIDS, drug overdoses, gun violence, or car crashes in the US.” That’s more Americans than “died over seven decades in the Korean, Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Afghanistan, and Iraq wars.” That’s more than 33 times the number of people who died on 9/11.

Next up, the World War I milestone. Within a matter of days, the number of deaths from the coronavirus will surpass the number of U.S. military fatalities (116,516) from the Great War. Those lives were lost over the course of more than 19 months — compared to less than four months now.

It did not have to be this way — because the vast majority of these deaths were preventable
Don’t believe me? In the United States, the first confirmed case of Covid-19 was on January 20. Three days later, Vietnam confirmed its first case of Covid-19. Today, the death toll in the United States has crossed 100,000. The number of deaths in Vietnam?
