19k miles is a long way.
I am not going to sweat this.

So assuming it stays around that 19k number, will we be able to see it from earth?

Good point. And it's official, we no longer have to worry about global warming killing everybody. Everybody can finally shut up about that.

Space Force will have its asteroid defense systems in place within 10 years. They won’t catch us off guard like Buenos Aires

Sounds like the risk of a strike on this next pass is minimal. But, I remember seeing a show years ago on near earth asteroids, and there is another risk involved. If an asteroid gets close enough, it can go through what is called a "gravitational keyhole". If this happens it could swing the orbit of the asteroid even closer next time around, making an eventual strike more likely.
