    Darn, he didn’t executive order Pelosi and Schumer to wear gas masks while making speeches.

    Does a 30 day travel ban from every European country, except the UK, seem helpful to you?

    It's simple. If it's not the Coronavirus then it's just the flu and you will get sick and then -- for most people -- you will get better; but if it's the Corobavirus then it is something that Trump gave to you and even though you will get sick and then -- for most people -- you will get better but for political purposes you must PANIC!

    I don't think so. Gaetz already revealed that he tested negative.

    MSNBC not happy with the address. They want the better medical care ... now!

    I guess they think Trump has an extra 100,000 doctors and 200,000 nurses hidden somewhere that he refuses to deploy.

    Yes. Jumper plane prices around Europe just sky rocketted, and the ability to get through UK customs just got a whole lot harder. (My prediction; Trump doesn't allow UK traveler's here without some assurance.)

    I'm not sure I understand why jumper place prices jumping is helpful.

    I think declaring a national emergency and endorsing the house democrat plans would have done much more.

    We can't even unite during a pandemic? FFS people. Our parents and grandparents are at higher-than-normal risk right now. How about we focus on what's truly important, you know, as Americans can (and used to be able to) do.

    It's the most presidential I've seen Trump thus far. He was good, but missed one key point. This is an economic crisis. Every hotel, restaurant and other services for the countries biggest sporting event are going to lose big cash. The Tournament without crowds?

    St. Patrick's Day is a number one money maker for tens of thousands of bars.

    For local towns who depend on annual events to get their annual income, this is huge.

    Edit to add: Spring break money.

    Trump should have been saying this all along, vs the we only have 15 cases, will soon be zero stuff and the this is a liberal hoax stuff

    I will wait to see if Trump changing tune until we hear real Trump vs teleprompter Trump - teleprompter Trump always sounds Presidential

    I've noticed he's seemed tired quite often the last couple of months. It's a tough job, and Trump is know not to sleep very much. Hope he takes care of himself.

    Trump would have said his response was as perfect as his Ukraine call... oh wait, Trump did say that

    most Presidents would let the experts handle it and not constantly make them praise him and contradict them - that is what gets Trump in trouble... his fragile ego

    Remember when this virus started and Trump banned flights from China? The Dems said it was a racist overreaction.

    did you notice not even Trump is using the word "ban" during this speech, he said Travel restrictions... the ban was a lie, Americans could still go to china and back without issue, it was just travel recommendations

    Trump's own experts admitted it was not a travel ban during a presser, they said it was a travel advisory, Americans could still travel if they choose too
