Question for everyone claiming that President Trump "down played" this thing in the beginning. Does that now mean that because he has "changed his stance" on COV-19, does this mean that you are acknowledging that he listens to experts and them makes decisions?

Or is OMB still a dictator in your eyes?

He clearly ignored the experts early on, or at least pretended it was no big deal in public. Maybe the cases and deaths piling up caused him to change direction.

And then they got mad at him for banning travel from Europe. Nothing he could do would satisfy them.

i am not sure if this is right, or wrong. It could be said that he was simply trying to avoid what has eventually happened....over the top panic.

Please let's quit calling them this. How can you be an expert on something when you yourself change your "opinion" as things progress on what you said beforehand. Advisers would be a more appropriate title.

The big picture: Because of early missteps by the Trump administration, the virus has already spread widely throughout the United States, undetected, and the number of cases in most major U.S. cities has skyrocketed.

While i am not sitting in the room for the meetings, I am 100% sure that scientists, and their opinions are a part of this decision making process. Those are the experts i refer to.

I will NEVER refer to a politician as an expert.

Claiming? It’s obvious DJT downplayed it. Quit acting like he didn’t. He called it fake news.

I actually believe he listened to a few people that he trusts and they informed to to chill tf out on attacking it.

He’s done great since he took it seriously.

It was obvious Trump did what he did up front to help the economy and lessen panic. Was it the right thing?


He could do nothing right in the eyes of the left and media. They jumped all over his arse over shutting people and flights coming from China down.

It’s a gold pot at the end of the rainbow scenario for Trump in this whole thing. Also, the goal posts are constantly altered at every decision Trump makes. Frick all the media and left. They hate America.

Your ilk called him a racist.

Your ilk, and WHO (that's the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION) tweeted that China had this under control, a travel ban wasn't needed, and everyone should party.

You sick fricks are now to the point where your lying shows just how truly evil you really are.

You don't want this solved. You want people dead so you can say "OMB". That's the only reason you showed up on this board after a long absence.

Maybe... just maybe.... Washington was too preoccupied with impeachment. Why didn't Congress listen to "experts" and take actions in January / February?

On January 31st, effective February 2nd, after most of the major airlines already cancelled flights. Did nothing about Europe until too late and even then left the UK open for most of a week.

He blatantly lied for weeks and still does. Of course that wasn't the right thing.

Like the experts at the WHO that stated COVID-19 wasn't contagious?
