Coronavirus Timeline: What the President Did vs. What the Democrats Did

20

President Trump and many governors, Republican and Democrat, are focused on getting America through this global pandemic and back to work safely. The left’s political class, meanwhile, is fixated on something else: dividing Americans for partisan gain.

The difference is that real leaders want results. Many are working with the President to achieve just that. Media pundits and Democrat leaders in Congress, on the other hand, are in the business of manufacturing conflict. They lose out if Americans unite.

Yet the left botched the Coronavirus story again and again. Now, they blame the President and hope you don’t remember how they fought him every step of the way:

  • The President formed a Coronavirus Task Force on January 29, when there were just a handful of confirmed cases in the United States. That day, The New York Times warned its readers to “beware the pandemic panic.” By the next day, Democrats were busy fighting each other over the impeachment spotlight.
  • President Trump restricted travel from China two days later. Democrat leaders called the ban “xenophobic” and unnecessary. The Washington Post published a piece that day: “How our brains make coronavirus seem scarier than it is.”
  • In an Oval Office address on March 11, President Trump spoke about the U.S. response and announced travel restrictions from Europe. Speaker Nancy Pelosi joined the media and other Democrats in questioning the action: “We’ll see whether it’s worth the trouble.”
  • The Trump Administration negotiated with Congress later in March to get immediate relief for working Americans through the bipartisan CARES Act. Speaker Pelosi and House Democrats stalled the Senate bill with their own list of demands—filled with partisan items that had nothing to do with Coronavirus.

There are more examples, but the pattern is clear: The left attacks President Trump for overreacting to Coronavirus, then later claims he didn’t do enough. It’s a classic Washington stunt, but it won’t work this time. Americans have seen these tricks before.

Is that all there is to the article? I expected a detailed list of informatin.
I’d love to see a list beginning with November showing what China did, what the President or administration did, what the media reported, and what Democrats in Congress said or did. THAT would be a great list to have..

I somewhat agree with you. If you have been following the Geller Report much of what you request has been documented and published and can be found in the archives. Pamela performs a heroic service with limited resources. May I suggest a generous donation to her foundation earmarked for the compilation of the list and source materials you request? I’m sure many of us here would join you.

Important to highlight that Trump offered to send a team of forensic scientists from the CDC to Wuhan on January 5 to help identify the origin and genome of the virus, weeks before he declared the Travel Ban from China, and Xi refused to allow the US team. Xi has continued to refuse admittance of CDC team. Democrats and Pelosi were focused 24/7 on “Articles of Impeachment“ and Obstruction, just returning from another break, while Trump was focused on the country’s safety and protection.

We need to monitor the difference between COVID deaths and virus lockdown related deaths. For example, someone who died from diabetes during virus lockdown, who had financial restraints and owned only one car in a remote rural area scenario: car’s fan belt snapped, was unable to purchase new fan belt, was unable to repair car to purchase more insulin at pharmacy; death caused by lockdown. https://banned.video/watch?id=5e9780ecc9cfda00ab341ada

Here is some breaking news for you. The PM of Canada, Trudeau just gave $828,000 to the Wuhan Inst. of Virology. Gave it to them. Canadians should be in the streets with pitchforks but they won’t because just like Americans they are sitting at home by government order. YES FOLKS WE ARE ALL STUPID.

I would like to know how you square the circle in saying China was merely attempting to demonstrate their expertise at virology and not bioweaponry and then turn right around and report that there is suspicion they may be toying around with nuclear devices someplace in the northwestern part of their country?

The Wuhan virus was a failed biological weapons experiment that got out of control and if the chinks pull the same stunt with nuclear devices, it will make Hiroshima look like a firecracker.

Nanotech is dangerous and should be banned. MIT tricked cells into pumping hormones using nanotech. So it is possible with nanotech to trick healthy cells into “committing suicide” (aka apoptosis)? BTW Nanoparticles are small enough to pass through N95 face masks and “float” in the air for days. https://phys.org/news/2020-04-remote-hormone-magnetic-nanoparticles.html

I wish you were correct but IMHO the left is too stupid to realize anything but their own personal opinions.

It appears that this started to spread around Boston and Cambridge in December judging from the high number of people that were walking around with “colds” during that time and afterwards. Why not exhume some that died of “pneumonia” during that time to see what they really died from? There were daily flights out of Boston to and from China until our heroic President put a stop to that. No wonder Mass is now #3 in cases in the US.

In the high desert of So Cal, we heard many complaints about “bronchitis,” a severe dry cough that lasted around two weeks. At Christmas and after New Year season.

The receptionist at my doctor’s office reported hearing the same story from a lot of patients.

One friend told of walking around a trade show in Vegas for three days talking to auto parts manufacturers from China. For three days. In November. And got deathly ill. Fortunately, he recovered.

Possibly we see fewer COVID-19 cases here because we have already passed it around? Small population, comparatively mild winter. Wishful thinking?
