    "CDC’s warning the virus will definitely spread"

    Listen to the CDC?

    When you decide to post something worth discussing then I will discuss it. I am not holding my breath.

    That isn't an answer. I am sure he is listening. Do you think he should just go into full panic mode on TV? You just ignored what he said. I suspect that your motivation in this thread is just to politicize the situation.

    Trump Was Furious That Passengers With Coronavirus Were Brought Back to U.S.
    https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/22/us/politics/trump-coronavirus-cruise-ship.html

    Coronavirus: President Trump said US authorities 'shut it down.' Here's what that means
    https://www.foxnews.com/travel/airlines-us-coronavirus-outbreak-travelers-china

    At least 140 travelers denied entry to US over coronavirus and thousands more screened
    https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/17/politics/travelers-denied-entry-screened-coronavirus-dhs/index.html

    Now, again, what do you think Trump should do that he isn't already doing, specifically?

    I reckon he is still trying to gather information just like every other world leader about this NEW virus. I reckon he is trying to project an image of calm rather than a "chicken little" reaction. I ask you also, what do you think he should be doing that he isn't, specifically? I mean you are good at bitching about a leader of a country that you don't even live in so do you have any intelligent solutions or are you just here for the partisan hack type rhetoric?

    Australia is going to give out "mass vaccinations". Sounds good,right? They are pumping smoke up your ass. There isn't any vaccination. I guess Australians will believe anything that gives them a warm fuzzy.

    See, Trump has 'shut it down.' All good, 'cause we already know that Trump never lies.

    I think he should do what the CDC did and level with the American people.

    It's OK. You can disagree with Trump. You can still wear the MAGA hat.

    I don't wear hats. I don't see anything to disagree with. You can't seem to specify what your disagreement is. I don't see where he said the CDC was wrong. What exactly did he say that contradicts what the CDC said?

    And again no substance from you. Just orange man bad. Is it hard to find anything of substance for you to post? As long as your country (Australia) can provide you with non existent warm fuzzies about a fictitious vaccine then it's all good, right? You should worry about Australia and not our country.

    I understand that the vaccines are for protection from the usual range of flu, pneumonia, etc, so that at risk people will not be doubly at risk.

    Good thing Obama trashed our medical insurance system with COVID-19 guaranteed to spread according to most Dem lovers on this forum.
    Hurry up and get that FREE medical care to the illegals so they can pass the burden on to us taxpaying citizens!!

    That virus does not discriminate...between illegals and legals. But....I do agree. If it gets into South America that makes the risk greater in the USA.

    Just when you thought people rooting for a bad economy was bottom of the barrel, some people start rooting for a plague.

    Did you see the steps that China took to contain the virus? Whole cities quarantined. Businesses and transport shut down.

    If other countries want to contain the virus the way that China did, it stands to reason that they should take the same steps that China did. Be prepared for that to happen.

    No one is "rooting for" a plague.

    What people hope is that Trump does more than just wish this away. That he actually listens to his scientists and advisors for once, and doesn't think he is the smartest person in the room.

    And that if he doesn't, and things all go to ****, that people recognise it and punish him for his incompetence in November.

    This will be episode number 137 in “This time Trump is in over his head”.

    Predicting doom and gloom for Trump is such a waste of time.

    Why not blame the globalists and the open border crowd? If there is a pandemic that does kill millions, the correct target is the global village crowd. The politics of the West will shift drastically if the elite or their children end up getting sick and dying from this.
