Rat out of a cage
Finally UPS gave out bottles of hand sanitizer to all drivers.

I've Got a Drinking Problem
I can't keep up with the number of times I've picked up the hand sanitizer to drink some tea ...
... luckily, the sanitizer is not in a glass!

Trump’s believed the ban would stop the spread of the virus, but that was wrong and it failed. By the time they identified the virus as new, Americans who were in China had already come back to America, even after the ban Americans in China were coming back and finally people from other nations who were in China, but went to their home nation and then traveled to America were still coming in before and after the ban. So the theory of the ban was wrong and it failed.

Trump further failed by not getting the Mass testing that could have identified the virus and we could have isolated people And stopped the spread. South Korea had mass testing and social distancing and isolation a week after their first case. America..... still doesn’t have mass testing although that’s ramping Up quickly now. But the lack of Early testing was the major failure of trump to stop this virus from spreading.

Finally trump failed to lead on social distancing. It was the sports leagues, and states and cities and certain businesses who shut down first while trump was calling it a hoax and lying Saying that it would go away soon, we had it under control, We’d have a vaccine soon, and treating it as a pr problem first his re election campaign. Trump didn’t change his tone on the seriousness of the virus to the public until like March 17th or so, and now he is back to downplaying it again, what a failure as a president

It most likely slowed the spread.

Haha, I know trump’s failure is so funny, more people will die than otherwise would have and more people will get seriously ill than otherwise would have and more people will be unemployed than otherwise would have, because trump failed so badly at this. But haha funny joke.

Huh, I detailed trump’s utter failure as president. His travel ban failed to stop the spread of the virus as he wrongly thought it would, then he failed to get early testing like South Korea which could have stopped the spread of the virus, then he failed to lead on Early social distancing which could have slowed the spread of the virus earlier, and instead He downplayed the seriousness of the virus to the public.
His failure as president can’t be joked away. It’s right there and easy to see.

Trump saved thousands of lives by putting a travel ban in place against the recommendation of the China owned world health organization.

I wonder if Democrats would have made those tough life saving decisions:

Joe Biden on Trump's China travel ban:
“This is no time for Donald Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia, hysterical xenophobia, to uh, and fear mongering."

No it didn’t the virus is spreading exponentially in America. It took us a couple of months to get to 1000 deaths and 3 days to get to 2000 deaths.

No the travel ban objectively failed. We can look at South Korea to see what successfully containing this virus looks like.

Think logically about how this virus spread. The travel ban failed because not only for the reasons I listed about Americans returning from China and others whose home nation wasn’t in China but who were in China and then went home and then came to America, but it’s even worse then that as a policy.

Americans who were in say Thailand or Singapore who came into contact with people who were in China and then came home, or Americans who were in Europe but came into contact with Europeans who had been in China and then came home. Etc and so on, the reality is any Americans overseas during that time could have come into contact with a person had been in China. That’s why the policy is a failure.


The China travel ban is a failure that probably prevented very little.

Yes, in South Korea private industry, without burdensome regulations, rapidly deployed testing....

I agree. It's a shame the Bush and Obama administrations made that impossible here.

Do some research kid.
trump failed to partner with private industry. He failed to get the mass tests and he failed to stop the spread of this virus by not getting that mass testing, then he failed to lead on telling the public and businesses to shutdown and social distance, the nba lead, certain cities and states lead while trump was downplaying the seriousness of the virus until like March 17th. And his signature policy the China travel ban is a failure for the reasons I listed. trump is failing completely. Sadly for the nation.

Hindsight is 20/20. And what you described happened all over the world, not just here. And at the time Trump's ban was ridiculed by the media. However by the time we had a few cases in the States the virus had already blown up in China where they kept a lid on it until they couldn't hide it anymore. Too much happened to be laying it at the feet of any one individual.
