The truth is, if we had a Democratic President right now, the borders would be open (need those votes) and there wouldn't be any flight restrictions for fear the far left would label them as culturally insensitive.
Stop. Just stop. This is pure nonsense.

Question. When you read articles like this, do you not see the political hatchet job that it is? To me, it's 100000% clear propaganda. Again, weaponizing a virus. More fear and hysteria equals more page clicks and viewers equals trying to make Trump look bad. MSDNC.

“Guys just a reminder that every year we quarantine people, shut down events, travel halts, and major retailers turn up empty for household items due to the flu. Remember last year when Italy had it’s Spring Quarantine? No need to worry or anything. It’s all good. And can we stop politicizing this please? I know nobody has brought politics into this and I’m doing it now, but seriously it needs to stop.”

Who are you quoting? I couldn't find it in the thread.

And Fox News doesn't have an agenda to support anything and everything Trump says? Arguing the bias in mainstream cable news is pointless. People who like Trump watch Fox. People who dislike Trump watch CNN or MSNBC. Plain and simple. If you think CNN is propaganda against Trump and Fox News isn't propaganda for Trump you are living under a rock.

CNN is not hurting the stock market. The lack of faith in our current administration to handle a crisis of this scale is hurting the stock market. When the president constantly contradicts experts from the CDC and the WHO citing his “natural ability for these things” as a source. It’s irresponsible and dangerous.

CNN decided to make the virus a political thing even before action was taken

They realized the Dems were behind big, the economy was strong and the only way to change momentum was scare the public and mess with economy too

Idiot trump just made it easier for CNN after they already had their plan in motion

So Trump calling the virus another Democrat hoax didn't make it political? The president has shown multiple times that his administration is behind and nearly incompetent when it comes to this virus. He should be held accountable.

The stock market was at an all the high. The public had 3 years to form opinion about Trump. Yet it's theblic's perception on how the POTUS handles a virus that will impact the market?

Lol. Yeah right.

When my kids have a fever or throw up they can’t go to school. That’s been going on for years.

He did not call the virus a hoax. He didn't deny there was a virus.
He called the way the Democrats were going to spin the virus a hoax.
He basically was foreshadowing that the Dems would turn the virus into a political thing

He's an idiot for even saying it because he opened up the door for people to twist and manipulate his words

Go back and listen to the entire statement and not just snip

It's more than a response to the virus. We are seeing how the president reacts to a major crisis and how untrustworthy he truly is. We can certainly agree to disagree. I appreciate your POV.

Go back and look at the 2000-2020 list of viruses and disasters that killed people. Did the public blame the POTUS in all of those?

Stop talking Lib or GOP and get to work on this as Americans! Doctors need to take over!

Yes, yes it is like the flu. Enjoy your safe space.

I’m curious what you mean by “in the field” because every BO member that is a physician or in the health care industry says this is no big deal.

My point will continue to stay the same. This president is showing on a daily basis that he is not capable of handling this situation. I said we can agree to disagree. If you want to keep arguing with yourself, be my guest.

Multiple global health experts say it is much different from the flu and shouldnt be treated like the flu. Wiseguy917 says it is like the flu. I wonder who I should believe.

The public already knew about some of his black clowd past (bankrupt casinos, property lawsuits, and other untrustworthy qualities) well before Corona.

The liberal media knew this was their opportunity to stir the pot

Trump never said the virus was a hoax or that it wasn't real

He was saying that the hoax was how the Democrats were going to politicize it

He's such a butthead for even saying it. Any other president has advisors that coach and work with the POTUS during speeches and press conference. They give input to the Pres.

Well, with trump that doesn't happen because he wouldn't allow someone to criticize or tell him what to say and not to say

Because of that, the media can twist the man's words and make it seem like he said the virus was a phony hoax

Rubber from CVS?

Who should be blamed for the sold out stock?
