And one assumes Trump's decision to look like he's doing something. But he's cancelled flights from countries with far lower incidences than we have....or Ireland....its the decision of a moron. No fan of him but he's right on this one. Better safe than sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest that there isn't much he can do but focussing on making as many tests available as possible, issuing good advice and stop telling people it will be gone by next week....you know show some basic level of intelligence and understanding. Its spreading in America. Yet they stopped flights from regions that have far lower spreads...and regardless its out in the wild there....who cares about cases coming in now?

What isn't clear about "its already spreading in the USA". And if he was cancelling flights he needed to do so from the UK, Ireland and every other country with community transmission. Its a completely pointless and empty gesture that achieved nothing other than plunging their market further into the mire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should ping your CV over to the White House, I’m sure you’re just what he and his advisors are looking for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its available for anyone to read. A child would know Trump's reaction has been shocking and then last night was a petulant and pointless tokenism gesture. Its not hard to understand. Once the thing is spreading across your country trying to limit cases coming in is pointless. But even so trying to limit cases from one region but not another - insanity.

Site Supporter Spider Posted March 12, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted March 12, 2020 It's a dogshit decision. It's already on US soil so stopping flights is next to useless. He's just going for a big, beautiful decision that will make him look strong and powerful. He said only last week that he didn't consider it a threat, so he's a fucking gland. That's not news.

An empty gesture it may be but it's a positive one for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, I think he said that people were getting better, and it would be gone in a few days. He is a proper whopper, but he's entertaining with it.

birch-chorley Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 He’s been banging on about how the Stock market has been doing on his watch Well, it’s completely collapsed today, back to where it was in 2017, be lower than when he took over soon Not that I blame a stock market collapse on him, but then again I didn’t think he had much at all to do with the boom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bolty58 Posted March 13, 2020 Members Share Posted March 13, 2020 If nothing else, there is clear evidence that he thoroughly winds up a certain type. For that alone we should be grateful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted March 13, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted March 13, 2020 His latest vomitings onto Twitter are very special. His response has been the best because he has a 78% approval rating. Endless, unmitigated bullshit from the master: Sleepy Joe Biden was in charge of the H1N1 Swine Flu epidemic which killed thousands of people. The response was one of the worst on record. Our response is one of the best, with fast action of border closings & a 78% Approval Rating, the highest on record. His was lowest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I elect someone.... 1) Because he can be good at being a President 2) Because he winds up northerners Let's go with number 2. That's what really matters.

bwfcfan5 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I honestly think this virus could be end of Trump. His response has been completely ridiculous and now with likely millions infected in the USA already and videos of Trump saying "it'll all go away" his "base" are going to be the ones up in arms at the way he's handled it.
