Rush Limbaugh stated during his radio show last week that he believes the deadly coronavirus wreaking havoc around the world is part of an effort to “bring down” President Trump.
The conservative commentator and recent Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient made the claim as the stock market slumped over concerns about the coronavirus continuing to spread.
“It looks like the coronavirus is being weaponized as yet another element to bring down Donald Trump,” Mr. Limbaugh said during his syndicated radio show.
It seems that Rush is not far from the truth.
President Donald Trump also told reporters Saturday the United States may close its border crossings to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus.
Speaking from the White House, the President said his administration was “thinking about” possibly closing the country’s borders to guard against the spread of COVID-19.
“We have ports of entry that we are keeping open. And we’re not talking about it, we’re thinking about all borders,” President Trump said Saturday, when asked of the country’s border with Mexico. “But right now that’s not a border as it pertains to what we’re talking about here. This is not a border that seems to be much of a problem right now. We hope we won’t have to do that.”
It seems that open borders are the last thing we need as a deadly virus is spreading.
Data from the Department of Homeland Security shows that 328 immigrants from China were caught trying to the border illegally so far this year.
Three other people from South Korea were arrested at the border, The Washington Times reported.
The report comes as the coronavirus continues to spread across China, where there are more than 80,000 confirmed cases and 2,902 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins. In South Korea, there are more than 6,000 active cases and 35 deaths.
“All told, more than 1,000 migrants a day are caught attempting to sneak in illegally from Mexico, which detected its first case last week and since has identified five others,” The Times wrote. “And if that many are being caught each day, an unknown but significant number are getting through undetected, Border Patrol agents say.”
“The journey to the U.S. border puts migrants in poor conditions,” a Homeland Security official told The Washington Times. “We don’t know if they have come into contact with someone who has the flu, there is no passport, medical history, or travel manifest.”
This isn’t new problem only thing that is new is the Coronavirus.
So once again we have more and more reasons why we need the wall.
The video below will explain the huge problem we have and that President Trump is right with open borders spreading the viruses it’s much easier.

Obviously these Chinese and South Koreans don’t give a rat’s azz if they infect the entirety of the Americas
They have NO honor. It makes me ill that we have to contend with America hating demos in Congress for the likes of these dishonorable people.
The ones that got caught - Trump still hated for the wall and immigration policies that may help stop the spread of the coronavirus.
The Ninth Circuit has just tossed out the so-called “Remain in Mexico” rule for the California & Arizona borders. Welcome to the US!
trump should somehow try to get an Emergency Stay of ruling- declare a national emergency somehow- the left are always declaring emergencies- Virginia declared one to violate people’s rights just recently- NY declared one to pass an unconstitutional gun law-
