Not undermine health experts by saying the pandemic was a hoax.
Can you post a link? I remember him stating that the way the media was portraying it was a hoax.
quote:
Not undermine the world health organization and attempt to defund the agency
Are you talking about that organization that is in China's back pocket and is a bastion of integrity?
quote:
Follow the advice and senior health offices and scientists
You mean like when Dr Fauci and Dr Birx recommended not to wear masks? Or are you talking about his ramping up the production of ventilators? Or maybe you are referring to his making available two Navy hospital ships that were never used? Or are you talking about legislating "Operation Warp Speed" to help develop a vaccine faster than any other one before?
quote:
Probably the most dangerous thing the president did was ignore the pandemic at global level when preparations could have been made
Such as when he restricted travel from China against the recommendations of all of his advisors while you and your ilk screamed he was a xenophobic racist? Or while Pelosi was inviting everyone to come to Chinatown after the travel ban for no other reason than just to spite Trump?
quote:
then downplaying the virus for months
Are you talking about when he was giving the American citizens hope when all of the fake news sites promoted non-stop fear mongering? He was totally correct in that opinion.
quote:
undermining independent health experts.
Who did he UNDERMINE?
and, finally the most laughably ironic statement that you could possibly make:
quote:
not politicize the pandemic.
How difficult is it to be that obtuse?
You really make it look very easy.

They would have continued to allow flights from China, making the situation really bad in March and April.

Biden would've done a much better job of mandating wearing a mask. It's taken Trump 4 months to wear one in public and to say wearing a mask is important. One just have to look at some of East Asian Countries like Singapore, South Korea, and Japan to see how wearing masks have done for them (hint a lot lot better).
You know who disagrees with your feelings about the masks?
Science.
I do agree wearing a mask I think it's helpful, however the actual science is all over the place.
And mandating masks are a difficult proposition. Then you will have enforcement issues she punishment issues.
I think encouraging masks is recommended.
So trump didn't do anything wrong earlier because the CDC recommended against wearing masks.
quote:
Biden would've been much more proacitve in identifying and isolating cases. Trump has done a very poor job in isolating and identifying who was infected. Though this is only based on how he and Obama did with Ebola. Trump has done a very poor job with identifying who has Covid. Even Today people are often waiting up to 3 weeks to know if they have covid or not.
Trump bought us extra weeks by hanging a travel ban.
He told the CDC to get testing and tracing ready.
They totally shite the bed so trump stepped in and got private industry involved.
And tracing in a country this mobile and with that thing called the constitution is somewhat tricky.
quote:
Hopefully, there be enough PPE for all the medical personal out there. I know there was a shortage of PPE left over from Obama but the Obama administration did warn Trump about it and Trump did have 3 years to replenish supplies and didn't
The job this administration has done on PPE has been simply Herculean. Seriously. You should read about it sometime.
quote:
Biden wouldn't have wasted time on stupid drugs like Hydroxychloraquine. This drug didn't work and just wasted doctor's time.
Hcq was the only treatment that was available in the world. Strangely in still not sure it doesn't work if taken with zinc.
And how did he waste anyone's time? He suggested we test it. The liberals turned it into something war.
All trump said was maybe this was a game changer.
And because of that we can't get well done studies.
Slightly over half of the studies show no benefit. Honestly I still don't think we are sure yet.

Counts their data very differently than we do.
I could go through it if you wish.

Why weren’t they replenishing the PPE as they used it?

Damn man, you do realize that the China virus was a medical hurricane do you not? No president or man could have prevented the inevitable. When there is no vaccine or no cure for an unknown just what in the hell can you expect? Trump didn't send infected old people back into nursing homes that eventually morphed into a 40% death rate nationwide. Your Dem governors did that my friend.
Since you seem to be full of critique for Trump, exactly what would you have done to lessen the blow of the virus?

That’s the thing though they wouldn’t have to do anything better because the media would cover for them 100% of the way and paint the picture of everything is fine and dandy
This is the answer. The history of the media’s coverage or lack thereof of SARS, MERS, swine flu, bird flu, etc. says so.

issue lots more mandatory orders

For your answer, think back to war coverage under W. Bush. Flag draped coffins headlined every hour of the news cycle. Obama is elected. We didn’t scale back, didn’t have less combat deaths but the coffins in the news magically disappeared.
The media is one of the biggest problems facing our nation.

1. Biden would've done a much better job of mandating wearing a mask
quote:South Korea basically shut you down if you were positive or in contact with positives through intrusive means like putting holds on credit cards etc. That doesn't fly in a free society.
Countries like Singapore, South Korea, and Japan to see how wearing masks have done for them
quote:What does this mean? As mentioned above, some Asian countries isolated you as if you were a prisoner. Is that what you want? In a country as large as the US, how does that happen from a federal govt level?
. Biden would've been much more proacitve in identifying and isolating case
quote:No time was wasted. How does writing a doctor's order for a med waste time?
. Biden wouldn't have wasted time on stupid drugs like Hydroxychloraquine
quote:This is flat out stupidity. Relatively tiny countries compared to 330,000,000 in the US. There are 6 European countries with higher deaths per millions than us. I guess the leaders of France, Spain, Belgium, the UK, Sweden and Italy are worse still, right? Realistically, in a free society, with a new pandemic, the US has not done poorly. But hacks won't see it that way.
I just wonder what might've been if we had a competent leader like New Zealand, South Korea, or Germany

But, the poster you're responding to is correct that Trump will take a hit. Idiots don't think, they emote and believe govt should have protected them better from an unprecedented event.

The opposite of whatever Trump does. Duh!
That's their pre-packaged answer to everything.

this isn't to say that Biden wouldn't have made these errors or others. But Trump has been awful. I just wonder what might've been if we had a competent leader like New Zealand, South Korea, or Germany.

Clearly, it wouldn’t be as big of a deal. Under Trump, Dems and Marxist media act like it is going to wipe the planet clean of all life.
Posted on 7/27/20 at 7:55 am to GusAU
They wouldn’t have done anything and it would be over by now. The only reason this is a big deal is because of Trump.
