    Yeah if Obama had been in office there wouldn't have been an outbreak in China.

    Ebola is only spread through blood or mucus transmission, so it was never going to be a problem here.

    Well they spent $11,000 per patient per day just to get rid of and treat the medical waste on the few patients we had here. imo it could have developed into a huge problem had it gotten out of control or many people with Ebola were brought into this country.

    Next time a do gooder voluntarily goes over there to do good let them die over there by their decision. Do not bring them back.

    Yeah, we were saying, why are you bringing people with Ebola into the US?

    Seems like a logical thing to say.

    They brung a bunch of AIDS sufferers in the past. It goes to show that just passing inside of the beltway can make elected people nuts, and want to spend taxpayers money that they shouldn't spend.

    Let me guess.

    From countries with cultures that believe having sex with a virgin cures aids.

    You know, like in South Africa, where they like to rape infants to cure themselves.

    Incredible. Just when you think the left could not possibly come up with a bigger load of bullshit, they decide to blame disease on Trump.
    We're lucky there hasn't been a total eclipse of the sun, or they would be impeaching him for darkening the world, implying that it was a demonstration to extort them.
    Get a grip, people. Your extreme phobias are already destroying the democratic party, and making new fools by the thousands. It's a home-made disaster and you own it, lock stock and barrel.

    Just when you think Trumpers can sink no lower they prove you wrong by "misrepresenting" (there's another word the site won't allow me to use that is more accurate) the facts.

    Trump is not being blamed FOR the disease...but rather for the poor and incompetent RESPONSE to it

    Conservatives were asking why Obama's brilliant plan to fight Ebola included either bringing people with Ebola here, or sending our troops to catch Ebola in Africa.

    Not a real brilliant strategy.

    You mean the media was freaking out. Just like they are now.

    Which party do most of the media belong to again?

    With exactly the same objective- to make him RESPONSIBLE FOR IT BEING HERE.
    Understand now? It implies that if not for Trump, it wouldn't be.
    There must be someone to blame in 75 countries around the world, that's how widespread it is. It's in Mexico- may well have come over our southern border, invited by the liberals. It's in Canada too.
    Perhaps Trump conspired to send carriers to all those nations.....
    Expect to see that kind of drivel pop up anytime now.

    You misunderstand.

    Ebola under the current operating restrictions, where the border was closed to travel from affected countries, was never going to be a problem.

    The problem, of course, was that Obama didn't do jack **** to stop travel from affected countries.

    Well the border WASN'T closed and because of competent response...Ebola was contained and dealt with.

    Odd that you had no problem with Trump demanding that corona-virus exposed people be allowed in to the country though huh?

    Woulda been nice if we had adequate testing and quarantine there huh?

    Yes people with Ebola were competently allowed to go and come into the US as they pleased.

    You don't even know what's going on. Trump closed travel from the get-go, unlike the last POTUS.

    Basically, you have no idea what you're talking about.

    Actually, the fatality rate for Covid-Trump-19 is around 3.5% from this source, or 35,000 per million.

    No they were not. But had they been as you now claim...wouldn't that have spread the virus (which didn't happen either)?
    Trump has done nothing of the sort. In fact corona virus has been identified in like 24 countries. Have we shut off travel to all of them?

    It did spread the virus. To the people taking care of him.

    Do you have any idea what actually happened?

    Would you like him to shut down travel to all of them or would that be racist.

    Exactly. Left is paraphrasing to their advantage.

    But then they've been doing that for decades. You'd think they'd be better at it.

    My post is perfect....and no Quid pro quo. When Trump called the virus a hoax, he made no other qualifications; however, his lawyers are trying to clean up his **** with an post hoc deniable alternative paraphrasing--you know, like the mafia. Trump thinks everything is a hoax, including universities and charities. In fact, Trump is running a Theranos type fraud on the entire country. Media is powerful in that it can construct a false reality.

    Well you lose....and rather badly.

    He said this was their (media) latest hoax. 24 seconds in

    Then goes directly into the number infected in America what he did to help lower the impact of the virus. 26 seconds in

    So clearly he is not calling the virus a hoax and in the same sentence talking about people infected and his actions to prevent the virus being worse.

    Please fell free to answer this. How is he calling the virus a hoax and speaking about it's impact in the same speech?
