    Is this 1984? It was you Trumpers who were saying that North Korea should be flattened for threatening the US when they sent a ballistic missile over Japan

    Did you bother to read your own link? Trump said it may or may not spread, but if it does then Congress (this means your radical side, too) is prepared to fund as much money as necessary to keep the spread to a minimum.

    You know as well as I do that if he said it was inevitable then you people would be putting out breaking news that he was getting ready to declare a national emergency so he could stop the election.

    Is there nothing you guys don't piss and moan about when it comes to Trump?

    No, Chuck, Nancy and Bernie know more. They set up a secret back channel with Greta.

    All 30 cases in America have been contained. WTF are you rambling about loyalty for? This has more to do with critical thinking and common sense. The fact that you told someone not to be biased right in the middle of your biased post speaks volumes.

    Read past the title.

    "Congress is willing to give us much more than we’re even asking for. That’s nice for a change. But we are totally ready, willing and able. It’s going to be very well-under control. Now, it may get bigger, it may get a little bigger, it may not get bigger at all. Whatever happens, we’re totally prepared.”

    I get that you'd rather see Trump push Americans into panic mode so we can clean out stores and go into survival mode like it's the end, but he's not going to do that. Luckily cooler heads will prevail once again.

    This, of course, is the right answer. If citizens are looking for information the last place to seek it should be from trump.

    But, but, but I'm so helpless and fear has taken me over with quivering knees, and I know that I'm gonna die, and why can't someone step in and guarantee that the world is a totally safe space? Please, please, please somebody step up to the microphone and tell me a lie using the word "guarantee," even if it ain't true.

    Do you really think the latest case of the guy who didn't have ANY risk factors (didn't travel to China etc.) means that it is contained?

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/27/health/us-cases-coronavirus-community-transmission/index.html

    Do you think the guy didn't talk to anyone before he got sick, or when he thought he just had a minor cold?

    I am not into spreading panic, but the idea that this can be contained in the US seems to be unrealistic to me.

    He fired most of them, tried to cut direct funding, and did cut a lot of indirect funding to the agencies best set up to deal with this.

    It was Trumpers who stated that North Korea threatened Guam and our ally Japan with that missile launch and should be flattened for doing so

    Australia's coronavirus pandemic plan: mass vaccinations and stadium quarantine
    Governments may order mass vaccinations of entire suburbs, cities or groups of people; sports stadia may be sequestered as quarantine sites; and police could be ordered to guard critical medical supplies under Australia’s pandemic health plans.

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2...plan-mass-vaccinations-and-stadium-quarantine

    As stated before, there is no vaccine but feel good about the fake or fictitious vaccine that your govt is going to give you. They are going to sprinkle everyone with pixie dust and everything will be okay. Really, just because it's you and they all know just how important you are compared to everyone else.

    *eye roll* really? Yes, critical thinking would suggest that nobody should take this lightly. Trump had no idea infected individuals were allowed by HIS ADMIN to be brought back to the US. The main areas that were designed to combat something like this were shut down by Trump in 2018.

    All it takes is one or two people getting passed that 'containment' and you'll have a serious serious problem on your hands. My point was to not simply go 'Well Trump says he is on it, so I don't have to worry anymore'. It wasn't about bias per-say, but more about the blind loyalty to Trump that some folks use to avoid thinking about what could go wrong if he is wrong (which he has a habit of being).

    “Totally prepared” Trump says. Sure hope that does not mean crackdown martial law per the Chi Com method cause....

    that would end the Trump train as it details off the track and into the Grand Canyon
