Finger in the dike
Tom has no idea what Biden would have done.
No surprise there.
Sure, the travel ban to/from China was necessary.
At the same time, though, airlines full of people were coming in
from all over the world without any type of health check, or even
a health related question, at point of entry.
The story in late Feb from a female journalist flying into JFK
having worked for the past few weeks in Covid-rampant Italy
summed it all up. No screening of any kind on arrival.
She was working for CBS, if I recall. This flight was a drop
in the bucket, and a good example of what wasn't happening.
Trump's solution to the problem was like pulling teeth.
He was doing everyone a favor in appearing to deal with a crisis.
Gets a D minus for his "efforts".

Also, some more reality is that Trump's China travel ban only applied to foreign nationals that had visited China within the last 14 days.. there was still a substantial flow of people between the countries that didn't fit that profile.
Not that it mattered, cuz the virus was already here and lots more was coming from Europe.

Oh, you mean he would call him a racist, but he would do the same thing himself. That makes sense.
People made mistakes, but you focus on Trump.
How about 5200 dead elderly due 100% to Coumo's stupidity?
How many got infected attending Chinese New Year in San Fran at Pelsoi's urging?
Try to be a little bit fair in your condemnations- there is more than enough blame to go around. Pretty much NO ONE, world wide, got it right from day 1.
But all you can focus on is a bottle of clorox.
Man, when push come to shove, I sure don't want ANY democrat on my team
Losers breed losing.

And at the time, I do;'t recall HIM ever being worried about anything.
History revisionist.
Big man AFTER the fact.
Bottom line, no freaking democrat would have done better than Trump, and most likely not as good as Trump did.

Tom and the rest of the clueless Trumpites were talked int o believing "the travel ban to/from China" was actually effective by the right wing bloviators who bowed down to their inept leader's claims.
Meanwhile, back at the reality ranch....
It just ain't so!
430,000 People Have Traveled From China to U.S. Since Coronavirus Surfaced
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/04/u...trictions.html
There were 1,300 direct flights to 17 cities before President Trump’s travel restrictions. Since then, nearly 40,000 Americans and other authorized travelers have made the trip, some this past week and many with spotty screening.

Well gee, hcap, there were YEARS of flights BEFORE the restrictions - are you a TOTAL idiot or did you stay at a Holiday Inn last ight. Duh. what a STUPID comment. Even from you, the Mayor of Stupidville.
How about YOU answer the question - how many MORE would Biden have let come in?
Key word Americans - we let out people come home.
Unlike you, WE think being an American is a good thing.
Run along now. Go play with fireworks.
Hold theb BIG ones next to your ears, so you can hear them go off.

Question for you
After Trump wins again this November, do you plan on posting the next day? Or hide for days / weeks in humiliation?
I already know hcap's answer, it's pretty much on his past performances. What about you?

Read the article. Right at top...
" There were 1,300 direct flights to 17 cities before President Trump’s travel restrictions. Since then, nearly 40,000 Americans and other authorized travelers have made the trip, some this past week and many with spotty screening."
Duh! Playing ding a ling to boxcar has it's downside.

We have good reason to believe, a hell of a lot fewer than the moron
Republicans: ‘Nobody Expected’ the Coronavirus Pandemic. So Joe Biden Is Nobody?
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020...biden-did.html
President Trump, having stopped dismissing the threat of the coronavirus and calling criticism of his laggard response “their new hoax,” has begun insisting everybody was shocked. “It’s something that nobody expected,” he has said. Conservative pundits have picked up this revisionist history. “Armchair Quarterbacks Try to Rewrite History on Coronavirus,” argues National Review’s David Harsanyi. “Generalized ‘Trump didn’t take this seriously enough!’ stuff is ignoring the timeline, wherein every major Democrat didn’t take it very seriously until early March either,” insists Ben Shapiro......
Except
One example of a major Democrat who took this seriously would be Joe Biden, who, as the party’s presumptive presidential nominee, is arguably the major Democrat. Biden wrote an op-ed on January 27 warning that Trump had left the country unprepared to handle the coronavirus outbreak, and proposing steps to counter it. One of his main advisers, Ron Klain, wrote an op-ed making similar points five days before that.

Cut the crap!
Joe Biden: Trump is worst possible leader to deal with coronavirus outbreak Published Jan 27, 2020
https://www.usatoday.com/story/opini...mn/4581710002/
The possibility of a pandemic is a challenge Donald Trump is unqualified to handle as president. 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. He advocated abandoning exposed and infected American citizens rather than bringing them home for treatment.
Trump’s demonstrated failures of judgment and his repeated rejection of science make him the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health challenge.
Next?

I didn't post in OTG for close to a year after Trump's win in 2016.
Probably something similar again - win or lose.
