He's 100% correct about that, just like Nancy Pelosi has to answer for opposing President Trump's travel ban from China.

Nancy, why were walking around San Francisco's Chinatown in late February? How many people have died because you were trying to create a false sense of security?

EDIT - LMAO! Well, my little social experiment worked. Same dumbasses (like EthanLoser, lil7thward, etc.) who are blaming President Trump for being too slow to act nonetheless bristle at the idea that the Mayor of NOLA or JBE have any culpability at all.

Gosh, I wonder why that is?

Agreed, Y.A. Hell, my family flew to Disney World on 2/29 for 6 days.

COVID-19 wasn’t on our radar then.

President Trump placed a travel ban from China on January 29.

Learn some facts.

Yeah I hate JBE as much as anyone out there but nobody had any idea that Coronavirus was going to be this big as it is now.

Nobody had a clue until shite hit the fan when the NBA canceled the season and and Trump banned all flights from Europe.

We can't all have access to the President's Daily Brief that he gets each morning. Hell, I doubt the intelligence community even briefs Governors on sensitive national security issues.

But he downplayed the threat and did very little else

I wasn't going to Mardi Gras. Or any other unnecessary event with a ton of people.

Even then, that was widely interpreted as a preventative move to stop the spread from coming here.

We had no idea it was already here and that travel ban was really stop the flood move instead of the preventive measure we thought it was.

If you suggest you were doing anything different than you normally would do, you are absolutely full of shite.

Article from feb 28 about a trump rally where the president call the corona virus a hoax. LINK
People today don’t think much of the corona virus and they sure as hell didn’t In late February. Remember all the spring breaker and that was after deaths started piling up.

BFD. What does that have to do with canceling Mardi Gras when there were no known confirmed cases of CV-19 in Louisiana yet?

Hannity is full of shite.

Why is this meme gaining traction? Mardi Gras was February 25. The incubation period is 2-14 days.

NOLA would have been a hotspot by March 10.

It's more likely that a local took that week to leave town and brought it back.

Would you normally have gone to Mardi Gras? I don’t know anyone who didnt go because of this virus — I can’t imagine that many MG goers gave it a second thought.

I’ve been following and don’t remember it being really talked about news wise in relation to here. And a ban to CHINA didnt really much as far as travel here goes IMO.

I agree with Hannity on a lot of stuff, but on this one...he's way out in left field.

Mardi Gras isn't like it was 50 years ago. The largest (out of town) crowds are there for the last weekend and are out of town on Sunday and Monday...

I was in NOLA on the Feb 25 and coronavirus was still a Chinese happening at that point. The first cases really didn't surface until mid-March, more than two weeks later.
