Haha she so stoooopid.

Her issue is acting like everything I just said should be completely ignored and trump should've been more serious so she would've cancelled Mardi gras.

Yeah I agree for the most part. About the timing... if I remember correct that first Wuhan evacuation was mid-February. The media started running with the story almost immediately. Hindsight is 20/20 so I get MMQBing MG with the foreign component is would've should've could've. It goes both ways though. Don't shift blame if you wouldn't have even done anything had you been taken by the hand and punched up the CDC website. There are ways to deflect other than shifting blame.

In context, Trump did not say in the passage above that the virus itself was a hoax. He instead said that Democrats’ criticism of his administration’s response to it was a hoax. He muddied the waters a few minutes later, however, by comparing the number of coronavirus fatalities in the U.S. (none, at that point in time) to the number of fatalities during an average flu season, and accusing the press of being in “hysteria mode”:

So a number that nobody heard of that I heard of recently and I was shocked to hear it, 35,000 people on average die each year from the flu. Did anyone know that? 35,000. That’s a lot of people. It could go to 100,000, it could be 27,000, they say usually a minimum of 27, it goes up to 100,000 people a year who die, and so far we have lost nobody to coronavirus in the United States. Nobody. And it doesn’t mean we won’t, and we are totally prepared, it doesn’t mean we won’t. But think of it. You hear 35 and 40,000 people, and we’ve lost nobody, and you wonder, the press is in hysteria mode.
For his part, Trump later defended his comments by stating he was indeed calling out the Democrats’ efforts to blame him and his administration for what they have characterized as an inadequate response “because we’ve done such a good job.”

Trump did however downplay the scale of the virus and the danger it posed to the public. At the time he made his remarks, the U.S. had 57 confirmed coronavirus cases, 40 of which came from the Diamond Princess cruise ship, which experienced an outbreak of the virus. And health officials were warning that the spread of the virus domestically was “inevitable.”

The novel coronavirus infection has been a fast-moving crisis. Just hours after Trump’s rally in South Carolina, the U.S. had its first coronavirus death. As of this writing, six people in the U.S. have died from the COVID-19, the disease caused by coronavirus. Globally, more than 80,000 cases have been identified and 3,000 people have died, while experts have warned the outbreak of the virus could become a pandemic.

Although Trump made a reference to seasonal flu death rates, COVID-19, which was first detected in the winter of 2019 in Wuhan, China, appears so far to be more lethal. And because the virus is new, no vaccine or treatment exists for it.

Let's not forget there were coronavirus concerns as early as the Super Bowl.

Feb. 28th at a Rally

Not sure if that was the first time.

I remember him saying it twice over a 48 hour span (tweet followed up at a rally the next night.) Up until the last week he was looking at it through candidate eyes. The past week he's been as solid and steady as most president not named Reagan or JFK (who were at a quite higher level than any other post-WWII President.)

When did Trump call CV a hoax?

---

The WAPO writer that made up the entire "Hoax" lie actually took the lie back just a few days ago and "apologized". Even "corrected" her tweet, likely under the threat of a law suit.

So, once again, you can see how idiots like Latoya get elected. Democrats believe anything their Chinese media tells them to believe.

Are you really this stupid you have to ask the question? People like you are how she got elected.

She does not know the meaning of the word transcend.

Nothing like electing the woman from Compton, CA as the mayor of New Orleans!
