I know this is hard for you to grasp, but there's no evidence
that that's true, and now there's evidence that it's not.

You people keep posting the same garbage about the efficacy
of this "travel ban" (which didn't prevent people traveling
between China and the US, just prevented Chinese nationals
from traveling directly from China to the US; 40,000 people
traveled between the two countries followign the "ban") but
continue to ignore the squandered opportunity to prepare.

Trump himself admitted the impeachment didn't impact his
2019-nCoV response _at all_: why do you keep brining it up?

Made sure that the largest economic stimulus package in
American history -- put in place only because the GOP-led
government failed to respond to the pandemic adequately,
setting us up for a forced shutdown of the economy to
safeguard human life -- had oversight and didn't turn into
a money grab for large corporations while stiffing working
Americans?  I keep hearing you right-wingers cry about a
few million dollars earmarked for cultural institutions,
while ignoring the hundreds of billions of bailouts for
airlines and cruise lines: companies that wasted whatever
windfall they from the GOP tax cut, that transferred a
trillion dollars of wealth from the middle-class to the
very top tier of wealthy Americans, by buying back their
own stocks to enrich themselves?  That is, instead of
passing the savings onto their employees or setting aside
some money for an economic downturn.  And oh yeah, who was
the _one_ member of the house who voted against the bill?
that's right, it was a right-wing Republican.

You mean besides all of that?

Indeed.  And just think how much better off we would be
if Donald Trump had not tried to just wish it away.  For
that, the penalty must be voting his dumb ass out of
office in November, after which he'll probably be indicted
for numerous crimes in New York State related to campaign
finance violations: too bad presidential pardons don't apply
to state laws, huh?
