Trump Campaign Responds to Joe Biden’s Accusatory Coronavirus Press Conference
FTA:A day after President Trump delivered a statement from the White House about the administration’s efforts to combat the coronavirus, Former Vice President Joe Biden offered a press conference of his own. He noted that his presidential campaign had cancelled election night rallies they had scheduled in Cleveland, OH, taking his own advice to “avoid public gatherings.”
That’s all understandable, and a good tip. But then Biden pointed fingers at Trump and accused him of “xenophobia” because he called COVID-19 a “foreign virus” in his White House address. He also said the Trump administration was guilty of several “misjudgments” since the start of the outbreak, particularly the president’s new travel bans. As he announced Wednesday night, all travel to the U.S. from Europe will be banned starting Friday at midnight for the next 30 days, with the exception of the United Kingdom.
Banning travel may “slow” the spread of the virus, but “it will not stop it,” Biden responded. He then suggested that Trump’s travel restrictions were based on “favoritism.” A few minutes later the former VP said that coronavirus had laid bare this administration’s “shortcomings” and that Trump was relying on fear, not science, in his response to the health crisis.
Tim Murtaugh, Trump 2020 communications director, responded in a statement on Thursday.
“In the past, Joe Biden has shown terrible judgment and incompetence in the face of public health issues,” Murtaugh said. “The Obama White House had to publicly apologize for and clean up after Biden when his irresponsible remarks caused panic during the swine flu outbreak in 2009. Just weeks ago, he was openly critical of President Trump’s early move to restrict travel from China to the United States in response to the coronavirus – a decision which medical experts agree helped impede the spread of the virus to this country. Yesterday his campaign actually raised the vile conspiracy theory that the President purposely allowed the coronavirus to spread. In times like this, America needs leadership and Biden has shown none. President Trump acted early and decisively and has put the United States on stronger footing than other nations. His every move has been aimed at keeping Americans safe, while Joe Biden has sought to capitalize politically and stoke citizens’ fears.”

President Trump Participates in a Meeting with the Prime Minister of Ireland
So glad I kept busy today gardening. Started a few seeds on the plant heat pad. Storm hit just as the onions and pea patch were finished up. All the babies are in (and want to sit on my lap). Pot roast aroma is filling up the house. Gonna pull the throw up and read for a bit. I think self hibernating is an excellent idea. Just go away hysterical idiots! Let me know when this thing is over.
What a good day hm. Sounds like your garden is off to a roaring start!
Your comment about pulling the throw up made me do a double read lol. I thought you were sick or something. Self hibernating is a wonderful idea.....I am not watching any news, neither on tv or online, nor am I checking my stocks any longer. I’m just going to wait until this nonsense blows over. What a sham - their most disgusting ploy yet.
Pot roast sounds great! Enjoy your evening!
Sounds like you are having a wonderful day, enjoy your reading.
That rabbit is so cute Pax. I used to have a real cute rabbit that used to sit at my window waiting for my carrots, I called him the arrogant rabbit.
In the last six months we’ve had a lot of coyotes and I haven’t seen my little arrogant rabbit.
My cat cleans mine off for me. Everything on the floor.
"The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" Is all we're seeing and hearing. Pitiful and desperate since none of Dem/media schemes have worked to take down Trump.
Doesn’t matter what Trump says or does, the response is always the same from the swamp. Orange man BAD! When will someone hold the media accountable for this mass hysteria they are causing? They hate Trump more than they love our country!
Our liberty is in grave danger.
