There remains little evidence that the president’s travel restrictions have made any meaningful difference on coronavirus cases. Moreover, lack of testing and mixed messaging from the White House on proper social distancing protocols have continued to frustrate the health care system’s efforts to contain the outbreak.

through neglect, incompetence, and malice.

He doesn't get it. He failed to act -- despite warnings, encouragement, pleading, and other world leaders/countries modeling correct actions -- when it mattered. It was a time-sensitive matter. It is too late for praise now, even if he were to do the things he should have done from the beginning (which he isn't, at least not in full or anywhere near in full).

A half-assed and temporary show of trying to catch up to the problem he let out of the bag in the first place does not earn him any credit.

No soup for you!

There are about 44,000 confirmed cases in the US today. Tell us, DJ, how that action saved us?

If my neighbor's house is burning, and I piss on an ember in the front yard, did I save the house?

latest reports out of Australia says,COVID-19 was still hot at 17 days on Surfaces of the Cruise ship that was tested late last week. And there thoughts are,this Virus can live longer that expected or it could now be replicating in special conditions.

Scary part is,the Orange Anus is Clueless and does not have empathy,only a inflated EGO that needs to be fed. Close the Borders to China. What a stupid statement. Friggin Container Ships were in route from China well before El Presidente had a clue. Tons of those Containers most likely came from Hubie Providence China's chief manufacturing Providence. And those Containers are now in Port or waiting Dock Times.

Contamination anyone.
