@MusicGunn How is he better? His comments on what he would do are what Trump already did. Lol
Trump shut down travel from China immediately and the left(Biden specifically)said he was xenophobic for doing so. He created the coronavirus taskforce immediately. He ensured every state had all the ventilators and medical setups they needed and was applauded for it by several Democratic governors, including Cuomo and Newsom. Dr Fauci himself, whom is adored by the left, said that Trump did everything he should have and he can't think of anything more that he could have done.
Since Trump is NOT a dictator, he left decisions of mandates and lockdowns up to the states, as he should have. Some states did better than others. Some states, Democratic run, put sick people in NURSING HOMES. We all knew from the very beginning that the elderly were the most vulnerable yet they put sick people with them while their hospitals were empty and Trumps administration had medical facilities set up for them to use. Nursing homes represent less than 1% of the U.S. population, but they account for 42% of the COVID-19 deaths, with more than 70,000 fatalities reported by the COVID Tracking Project. (Number is from August)
Before you spread the lie that Biden didnt call him xenophobic because of his banning travel, lets look at some key pieces of information. On Jan. 27, Biden wrote an op-ed published in USA Today, he said President Trump’s calls in 2014 for travel restrictions during the Ebola outbreak as “reactionary.” He said, Biden wrote, “I remember how Trump sought to stoke fear and stigma during the 2014 Ebola epidemic. He called President Barack Obama a ‘dope’ and ‘incompetent’ and railed against the evidence-based response our administration put in place – which quelled the crisis and saved hundreds of thousands of lives – in favor of reactionary travel bans that would only have made things worse.” So he thought travel bans were bad. He clearly was anticipating the move. And the WHO was against Trumps ban so, in Bidens words(you will see later), he was against it since the "science" was against it. (Fauci has since said it was a good move and he can't think of anything else Trump could have done)
Then a few days later, Trump issued the travel ban for this virus. One day after the travel restrictions were put into place, Biden said in Iowa, “We have, right now, a crisis with the coronavirus… This is no time for Donald Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia – hysterical xenophobia – and fearmongering to lead the way instead of science.” He then added that “Diseases have no borders, they have no borders.”
On March 12, the very same day President Trump implemented further travel restrictions on Europe, leaving little doubt about his thoughts on the travel ban, Biden said, “Banning all travel from Europe or any other part of the world may slow it but as we’ve seen will not stop it. And travel restrictions based on favoritism and politics, rather than risk, will be counterproductive.”
The same day, Biden Tweeted, “A wall will not stop the coronavirus. Banning all travel from Europe — or any other part of the world — will not stop it…”
He called the travel bans “reactionary,” “hysterical,” “xenophobic,” and “counterproductive.”
He is not the better option for this.
