He said the response was a democratic hoax.
But you knew that. Not that you really care about being accurate.

People are even questioning whether he even actually has it.
Should we welcome this moron to the fricking party, or does he only question the 1 out of "7 million" cases?

The idea that it wasn’t related was only claimed after the most recent debate.
I didn't say it wasn't related. The claim was Biden called the travel ban xenophobic, which isn't true. Here's the full quote from the speech.
quote:
“We have right now a crisis with the coronavirus, emanating from China,” Biden said on Jan. 31 at a campaign event in Iowa. “A national emergency worldwide alerts. The American people need to have a president who they can trust what he says about it, that he is going to act rationally about it. In moments like this, this is where the credibility of the president is most needed, as he explains what we should and should not do. This is no time for Donald Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia – hysterical xenophobia – and fearmongering to lead the way instead of science.”
I don't think it's unfair to infer he's referencing the travel restrictions to and from China, but he doesn't specifically mention it.

That’s because you don’t like or don’t understand the answer.

That literally is related to the coronavirus.
He even throws the word “science” in there.

How about Biden AND Pelosi.
Biden wasn't in an elected position when he made the comments in question.
You have a link to Pelosi calling the travel restrictions racist or xenophobic?

Pelosi went to Chinatown and urged people to come visit China town. Said everything was fine.

No, it's because it wasn't responsive. FWIW I agree he is a patriot. But he's also a xenophobe (or projects himself as such--it's hard to tell when he's being genuine). They aren't mutually exclusive. Probably highly correlated, actually. That's why I said the question is whether you think his xenophobia is good for us or not.

It was literally a response.

That doesn't make it actually responsive to the question posed.

Got it so you don’t comprehend the answer

Uh, his answer was a direct response to the question you asked.
Like he said, you just don't like the answer.

oh, but in April biden says this:
So, Biden realized that he was wrong, but his statements imply that he wouldn’t have done anything for months?
Doesn’t that imply that he would have done an even worse job than Trump?

Where's the citation?
quote:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was one of a number of top Democrats to rip into President Trump’s decision to expand the travel ban to include six more countries on Friday -- with Pelosi describing it as “discrimination disguised as policy.”
“The Trump administration’s expansion of its outrageous, un-American travel ban threatens our security, our values and the rule of law," she said in a statement. "The sweeping rule, barring more than 350 million individuals from predominantly African nations from traveling to the United States, is discrimination disguised as policy."
So she used the word "discrimination" instead of xenophobe. Fact is, EVERY top elected democrat and democratic presidential candidate was against his travel ban and you know it. NONE of them would have done it, yet he is being criticized for acting too slow. Hypocrisy at its finest.
