    I'm sure the CDC hasn't done a press conference since March 8th because "they suck", not because they have orders from the white house so the white house can try and control the message.

    If thethe's conspiracy theories about China are true and they set this off as a bio attack to slow down the rest of the world, it is brilliant because they could not have had a better President in the Oval Office to handle the crisis on this side of the ocean the way they would have dreamed of.

    Just to be clear, AFTER Trump banned travel for China, Democratic leaders called it racist and ALSO said in defiance of the fear new yorks should come out in waves to be at China New Year celebration.

    So we have a country where Orange guy says something... hes racist and we will celebrate to show how not racist we are. And then when things break out, it was Trumps fault for not taking it seriously.

    Per usual, I'm not absolving Trump from blame but to act as if he could wave his hand to stop this thing is literal insanity. The few actions he DID take were immediately criticized and mocked.

    I'm sorry Trump did this to you.

    We stoppped the flow of new seed infections on January 31sst.
    Just to check in on this, when thethe wrote it NY was at ~500 dead total? We are now at 600+ per day. Lombardy, the worst hit part of Italy, has already had ~.1% of its whole population die. Let's see how NY compares:

    Orange man has broken the country. And those of us are kind of upset because you know, we care about the country's future.

    You love going to the extremes. Our problems won't be gone, but they will have slowed down because the person in office isn't an impulsive buffoon.

    Maybe you just dont understand the Math.
    So you're heartless got it.

    I understand the Math. I know that this isn't gonna last forever. But flattening the curve is key. Because then we'll really be killing a lot of people because we'll be forced to make life and death choices on who to save and let die, like Italy has. That's the reason this is going on, because we're attempting to limit the spread of the virus for now and also to bide some time for researchers to figure out a vaccine.

    Curve flattened already. You missed it.

    To firmly conclude that you have no clue what you are talking about. It's been that way from the beginning.

    I've literally said repeatedly I have no idea what is going to happen. So I am happy to be on record as that being "my position."

    But your previous position is obviously absurd as I posted above.
