...

All the way back on January 31, in reaction to the coronavirus outbreak in China, President Trump announced a travel ban of “all foreign nationals who have traveled in China within the last 14 days.” That included, obviously, Chinese citizens and anyone from any country who visited China.

Americans returning from China were put under a 14-day quarantine.

That was 50 days ago.

President Trump took that action 50 whole days ago.

That same day, Joe Biden published this tweet:

[N]ow [Trump’s] adding more countries to his list of who’s not welcome in America. It’s not who we are — and we’ll prove that when we beat Trump this November and end the ban.

Please note that Biden promised to “end the ban” — the ban that stops people from entering our country who are coming in from a country facing a massive epidemic.

The next day, Biden — who has always been cozy with China, and whose son Hunter set up a deal worth hundreds of millions with the Chinese government while traveling with his father (who was then vice president) — issued the following statement declaring Trump’s ban “racist” and “xenophobic.”

Yesterday, Donald Trump further diminished the United States in the eyes of the world by expanding his travel ban, placing new restrictions on the residents of six more nations that limit who is allowed to come to the United States.

…

Trump’s atrocious asylum and refugee policies — they are all designed to make it harder for black and brown people to immigrate to the United States. It’s that simple. They are racist. They are xenophobic.

And there is no evidence that they do anything to make us safer.

Immigrants from each of these countries and their broader diaspora communities here in the United States enrich the larger fabric of American life as our friends and neighbors and make vital contributions to our economy.

That same day, Biden published this tweet:

We are in the midst of a crisis with the coronavirus. We need to lead the way with science — not Donald Trump’s record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering. He is the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health emergency.

Biden followed this statement up the next day with a speech in Iowa, where he again blasted Trump’s travel ban, this time as “hysterical xenophobia”:

We have, right now, a crisis with the coronavirus. This is no time for Donald Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia – hysterical xenophobia – and fearmongering to lead the way instead of science.

On February 15, Biden again attacked Trump’s immigration restrictions:

Donald Trump’s inhumane, fear-based immigration policies are a stain on our nation. We have to get him out of the White House and ensure our laws reflect our values as a nation of immigrants.

The following month, on March 10, Biden was still lashing out at Trump’s travel restrictions as racist:

A wall won’t stop a virus. Racism won’t stop a virus. Do your job.

On March 11, Trump announced a European travel ban.

The very next day, Biden railed against the idea:

A wall will not stop the coronavirus. Banning all travel from Europe — or any other part of the world — will not stop it. This disease could impact every nation and any person on the planet — and we need a plan to combat it.

Trump just has to be better than Biden to win reelection.  In this case he clearly was/would have been.  His quickly enacted travel bans from China and then Europe(read Italy) no doubt reduced the impact from the virus during the month after that bans were put into effect vs no bans from those hot spots.(and the people who no doubt would have come to escape the horror show)

Biden has been clear that he would not have limited travel from those places for virtue signaling reasons much like the 'hug a Chinese' Italy dumb fucks.  No squinting required.

Was Biden (as a presidential candidate and non-sitting rep) privy to the COVID-19 intelligence briefing? If not, does one know for sure that he would not have limited travel? The implementation of the travel restrictions did funnel air travel to specific airports but the monitoring system was fubar. The Emerging Infectious Disease Journal has a paper to be released in July showing COVID was already in Europe prior to January 23, which was pretty much suspected.

Enacting travel restrictions was a good plan to slow the spread (which was already going to happen, IMO). But, when one looks at the apparent lack of coordination between intra-agency stakeholders: TSA, Customs, CDC, it appears that nothing was actually implemented in a cohesive way. Cuccinelli admitted that they were not screening nor restricting travel from non outbreak cities when a traveler may have originated from an outbreak area. The reason: cost, manpower, and numbers: over 100,000 per day.

When Biden is not actually at the helm it is difficult to assess whether he would limited travel or not.

Honestly?  Because we are a center right nation that is deeply racist. 
 

basically half (if not 2/3) of white people dislike/fear POC, to the point it drives every other aspect of their life outlook, knowingly or unknowingly. Trump says the quiet part out loud, and that gives them a deep sense of belonging and alignment.  
 

Your traditional suburban business types aids and abets because they just can’t bring themselves to pull the lever for the Democrats.  So they go with the incompetent devil they know, who also won’t hurt their race and class type (also, Trump re-enforces traditional gender roles and structure, which is soothing for your suburban dude worried about a woman taking his job or worse).

Donald trump was warned about this in January and did nothing about it. He blew it off as a deep state Democratic hoax and figured if he cut off air travel from China that would do the trick. He’s an evil narcissistic fool who signed the death warrant of perhaps millions of Americans.

An entire article built around a misconstrued (on accident, I'm sure) tweet.  Biden is talking about the MUSLIM ban in that tweet.  "I will end bans [that are just based on stoking racism].  All you have to do is show Trump is better than Biden on something. anything.  And you still have to lie to do it. At some point do you not say "maybe my guy, that comes in last place in everything that i can possibly think of, shouldn't be my guy"?

 

 

And:

 

I think one answer to OP is this:  people see America as too big to fail, and at the same time they haven't gotten their fair share.  From that perspective, voting for Trump makes a little sense.  Hey, we (as a nation) are rich, we have this magical ability to stay rich because this machine can't break.  Why not roll the dice a little, maybe I'll get a little more of the pie on this reorganization?  The worst that can happen is I end up where I am because a mindless drooling vegetable can do the day-to-day of this golden goose, so it's not like we are going to harm anything.  I think that explains why it was Trump over the others in the primaries too.  He best exemplified a roll of the dice.

I suppose we should be glad that you've moved on from misrepresenting the first tweet, now we are on to the next one. Such is the whack a mole of discussions with Republicans these days.  They don't care if they are wrong.  They just want to talk.  

Biden never says he's not shutting down travel to diseased places.  It's the bad faith of Republican discussions, and it's a waste of time to have them.  But I'll give you a hint:  he's trying to contrast his stances with Trump's, because he is going to run against him.  He's not pointing out where they overlap, but where they differ:  Stopping flights to diseased places isn't enough.  We need a real plan in the US--something Trump is showing that he is incompetent at.

I vacillate from thinking Trump defenders are retards and Trump defenders are just contrarians funnin' around.

There is some interpretation going on.  I interpret Joe's tweets referring to the decisions by Trump for limiting access when he deemed necessary as xenophobia, etc, were comments akin to virtue signalling that he would not have banned anyone at any time for a coronavirus type event.  Since it "wouldn't stop it" why do it at all, amirite? 

Joe's tweet on jan 31st, at 4:40 PM , the sentence after the Muslim ban specifically, could easily be construed as referring to the China restrictions Trump put into place earlier that day along with declaring a national emergency just before Joe's tweet ~1 hour after the China travel restrictions.

Quote

"...

And now he's adding more countries to his list of who's not welcome in America.

..."

Chinese restrictions announced in meeting 3:30, ending about 15 minutes before Joe's text:

Crossposting: Re Rural Hospitals...

Oh I’ve worked small town hospitals back in another life.  Those people are fucked on a whole other level.  Less beds per capita, almost zero truly capable intensivists - anything serious gets sent to the big city.  Well, we have never had a situation in modern times with zero big city hospital capacity.  Shitshow guaranteed.  
 

These places may have one respirator and almost a guarantee they have no idea how to use it properly.  It’s no surprise much of the opioid crisis took hold through very rural docs - some of whom I worked under in Med school - mandatory rural rotations.  The cute pharma girl could get those yokels to do anything.  At least in the city you would be looked at funny by colleagues.  You get rural enough there’s not too many colleagues who aren’t your drinking buddies/family etc.  And many are great docs when they start but it’s tough to stay on your toes practicing out there   Why are anesthesiologists the number one drug abusers?   They’re not drug addicts by nature just as rural docs aren’t shitty docs by nature,  just a product of their environment.  
 

(anesthesiologists have access to the good stuff. And literally have to be around it all day.)

Oh sure, but how many trump supporters realize that it will fuck up their communities too? I’d bet a lot of money they think it’s just gonna hurt elitist city types.

I am fully competent to adjudge you an idiot. 

I get that media is biased.  I believe that it is, so I have my bullshit detector fully calibrated and on high sensitivity at all times.  But that Breitbart article is a flat out lie.  There's no spin there.  No editorializing disguised as reporting.  It's a complete misrepresentation about what Biden said and the context in which he said it.

I also believe that the media probably fucked up by breathlessly reporting every early Trump fuckup as if the world was ending so that when the Mueller Report, impeachment, and now this happen, it all got lost in the shuffle.  Tl;dr they cried wolf too often.

 

Also, for the record, Trumps "early" travel ban was next to useless because it only applied to aliens coming from China.  It posed no real restrictions on Americans traveling to/from China.  https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/proclamation-suspension-entry-immigrants-nonimmigrants-persons-pose-risk-transmitting-2019-novel-coronavirus/

There are no "levels of bias". There's just bias. Everyone has it. Your job as a consumer is to understand the bias and interpret accordingly. 

The NY Times discovered that millions of people were starving to death in the Ukraine. But because they loved communism, they lied about it, and got a Pulitzer for their lies. Biased enough for you? Does your chart inform your understanding of what they did?
