Lol, that's what Trump says, it doesn't make it true. There was no particular opposition from the Dems when Trump restricted travel from China. Just as well Biden wasn't in charge. How many more infected people would have entered the US if the Dems were in control! https://nationalfile.com/flashback-biden-opposed-trumps-chinese-coronavirus-travel-ban-as-xenophobia/ 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumps rogue action created a position wherein trump had to be impeached.

The man at the top is responsible. Trumps failures are manifest. Blissful ignorance might not remain “blissful”. What a load of rubbish!

On another, however, Trump's high approval ratings for how he has dealt with coronavirus and how he is handling the job more broadly might well shock people who have been keeping close track of his and his administration's performance on the pandemic. After all, it's quite clear that the administration simply didn't take the threat of coronavirus seriously enough soon enough. And the testing capabilities for coronavirus in the US were decidedly slow. And Trump's public statements have been marked by inaccurate claims (the test is "perfect", the vaccine is coming fast, etc). 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He continues to fail in his duties to protect America and Americans. The very language he chooses to use antagonizes the nation’s the US needs to cooperate with. He’s not fit for the job, he needs to go. again.... revisionist history. Trump restricted travel from China in JANUARY........ JANUARY. He got called a ricist and a xenophobe by every prominent Democrat. The MSM attacked him as a.... yep.... racist. As such, he toned down. I am not a Trump fan- he's failed on too many fronts for me to endorse him. Had the MSM and democrats cared more abt America than their globalist/destroy America agenda, and backed the POTUS, this thing would have gone down differently. Kinda like including funding for planned parenthood in a Chinese Wuhan virus stimulus bill- they care more about their upside down ideology than reality. Do we really need to have pro-kill babies legislation in a Chinese Wuhan virus bill?!?!?!? The only HONEST answer is NO.

Maybe because it undermines your case that pangolins have been dismissed as a suspect? Mystery deepens over animal source of coronavirus Scientists are racing to identify the source of the coronavirus that is causing havoc around the world. Three weeks ago, Chinese scientists suggested, on the basis of genetic analyses, that the scaly, ant-eating pangolin was the prime suspect. But scientists have now examined those data — along with three other pangolin coronavirus genome studies released last week — and say that although the animal is still a contender, the mystery is far from solved. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-00548-w In addition to which, just because bats are hibernating, that doesn't mean that they can't be harvested, does it? What's more, if pangolins can be imported from elsewhere, why not bats? That said, I don't believe scientists claim that bats are the direct source. It's not cherry-picking. I gave the link - not trying to hide the info. And don't expect anything that casts shade on China in headlines, given those who have big investments there are also owners of the publishing / media business. The article shows the pangolins in question are not the source. If evidence emerges of such a virus existing in pangolins (or other animals) elsehwere, please advise - because that has not been discovered yet, to my knowlege - much less the animal being sold at that wet-market. As to bats, there were stories of humans interacting with droppings - which is clearly not the case here. But even with an "imported" or "cave harvested" bats case, no animal, much less one sold at that market, has been found, which has a virus that could have made the jump to the COVID-19. In addition, zoo-jumps of viruses tend to initially-result in a virus which does not spread well, until several attempts to survive / evolve in a new host. This one was Immediately very virulent, to spite having no related in its class ("clade"). Though such a jump "could" happen this way by chance, that is highly unlikely. So, right now, we have no known animal host starting-point, it appears to have evolved independently for a long time (genetic distance), if evolving naturally ( http://virological.org/t/divergence-of-ncov-2019-to-closest-non-human-relative/388/2 ), and has no close relatives known. New information could change all that, of course. But this is where things stand now, based on what I have read. I am open to any new information, of course.

Yet it didn't release it for a week. That info is crucial to creating test kits. ... and, they could have had it sooner, if not for destroying the first sets of samples, thus trying to cover it up, initially.
