    The point that it is being questioned is whether or not the U.S. should "discontinue" helping others and the reply is that the U.S. hasn't been helping others to begin with.

    Congress armed the Ukrainians, Trump tried to withhold aid for a personal favor in their time of need

    I am so sorry to tell you that the deaths in this country are about to explode. It's not because of Mexicans. It's because of Americans who think this is a democrat plot to destroy America. It's the "I'll be damned if I'll stop hugging and kissing my friends because of the common flu," crowd that will cause us to have 100K+ deaths in the next few weeks.

    H1N1, Obama Blahblahblah... these are the people who are making it far worse than it needs to be.

    Is that true?


    Don't fret too much about your country. It will be destroyed, as it deserves to be, just hope that you are on the "good side" of rebuilding it when it happens.

    Oh so Trump isn't actually the only person in charge of the USA? I thought that he was responsible for the country's failure in pandemic-readiness.

    yep, don't listen to Trump, he tries to take all the credit for others actions, but he is lying

    only thing Trump really does is play golf and tweet and spout nonsense... oh and hold up money for favors for personal gain

    Trump was not prepared to lead at all, he just wanted the job to be praised 24\7

    trump got rid of anyone that would disagree with him... and now he needs those people, yes men that praise your every move do not cut it in a crisis

    well you cut and pasted my post to a "yep"?

    he is responsible for his lack of response, that is all on Trump, the previous admin warned him about just this sort of crisis, he ignored it

    Trump was putting up the "mission Accomplished" flag early on trying to take credit for something when he did nothing, maybe he should have done something instead

    Yes, and what does that have to do with the response of the rest of the people in the government?

    What do you mean he did nothing? There was a coronavirus taskforce created back in January!

    Trump was downplaying it, Pence is responsible for the task force, Trump only took it over when he saw Pence was getting all the attention

    Trump sees this as good ratings, everyone tuning in for the daily update, so he wants to be a part of that now

    Pelosi wants to investigate President Trump again (when does she not?), this time because the number of infections are "disproportionate" among blacks. Are blacks the ones you imagine think it is a democrat plot to destroy America? Or is, perhaps, your caricature inaccurate?

    Do you actually believe that? If so, is it based on provable data? If so, got a link?

    Interesting. I've been reading a bit about this, but I'm confused why the warning died with the Obama Administration, after not being acted on by the Trump Administration. Wouldn't the CDC or something have been involved in that work?

    Mexico is mostly warmer than the US. New York is hit harder probably because of its climate, although they are also marking every influenza/pneumonia death as coronavirus.

    Alright, well then I guess we can't credit Obama for the Affordable Care Act.

    Hilarious since it is the US that is having a Corona virus explosion. If Mexico were smart they would secure their border against America.

    Yes, the Right has noticed how joyful many people Left of Center have been over the numbers of infected inside the United States. It was pointed out last week that Hillary Clinton herself was cracking jokes about it -- and that countless leftists applauded her over that fact.

    But as to Mexico, they are pulling a Communist Chinese scam with the numbers. It is going to eventually blow up in the face of their lying government.

    Nice effort at ignoring my point. And how can the right claim the left is joyful when the right doesn’t appear to even believe there is a problem.

    Need any past Trump quotes?

    The US now leads the world in cases and it's time to secure the border? Gawd, xenophobia knows no bounds.

    if congress passed it and Obama tried to not implement it for a personal favor you would have a point

    not to mention, Trump did not ask for the Ukraine help, Obama asked for a healthcare bill

    it would be like Congress passing daca and trump trying to take credit for it

    Since yesterday there is a listing for twenty more deaths in Mexico from the CoronaVirus. Perhaps they should have initiated some of Trump's suggestions a few weeks ago.
