Every time the left says something stupid a Corona virus gets its lime

The Corona pandemic is a serious thing and should not be short shrifted. That being said, a little perspective is in order. In 2009 the H1N1 swine flu infected 60 million Americans, hospitalized 274,000 and  killed 12,400. It is thought to have taken as many as 200,000 -500,000 lives worldwide.

12,400.

Remember how democrats blamed obama? Me neither.

This season the flu has already killed at least 12,000 people in the US since October 1. 31 million are thought to have contracted the flu and between 200,000 and 370,000 hospitalized.

12,000.

As of this writing there are 1215 cases and 36 deaths from Corona. That number is expected to increase significantly and it may well. As I said, this must not be taken lightly, but what makes this pandemic so different from others? What is it about this that makes democrats and their allies in the media act so stupidly?

Led by Nancy Pelosi, democrats want the borders thrown open to allow as much disease into the country as possible.

House and Senate Democrats are responding to the coronavirus outbreak in the United States by supporting measures to effectively strip President Trump of his authority to impose travel bans to protect American citizens. While Trump has implemented travel bans on China and Iran — two of the most coronavirus-affected nations in the world — House Democrats are looking to roll back the president’s authority to enact travel bans from regions of the world.

The “No Ban Act,” introduced by Rep. Judy Chu (D-CA) and co-sponsored by 219 House Democrats, would have prevented Trump from immediately implementing a travel ban on China once the outbreak of the coronavirus spread past its origins of Wuhan.

Instead, the No Ban Act would have allowed travelers from Wuhan to continue to arrive in the U.S. while the president received guidance from Congress.

“This bill imposes limitations on the President’s authority to suspend or restrict aliens from entering the United States and terminates certain presidential actions implementing such restrictions,” a summary of the legislation reads.

Donald Trump instituted a travel ban to China on January 31. Joe Biden called the action "xenophobic." Bernie Sanders said he wouldn't have done it. Yesterday Trump expanded the travel ban to most of Europe. Dr. Anthony Fauci, one of the world's leading immunologists, supported Trump.

“Dr. Fauci, will a travel ban like this have a significant impact on reducing the community spread of the coronavirus, that is cases that are already in the United States?” Rep. Jimmy Gomez (D-CA) asked.

Dr. Fauci said in response:

Yes … the answer is a firm yes. That was the reason, the rationale, the public health rationale [for] why that recommendation was made because if you look at the numbers, it’s very clear that 70 percent of the new infections in the world are coming from that region, from Europe, exceeding other countries. [Emphasis added]

Of the 35 or more states that have infections, 30 of them now … have gotten them from a travel-related case from that region. So it was pretty compelling that we needed to turn off the source from that region. [Emphasis added]

The Corona outbreak is so grave a situation that Nancy Pelosi attached abortion funding to a bill meant to fight the virus.

The biggest democrat issue today? What we call the Corona virus. 

“Since the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, we have seen not only the spreading of the virus, but also a rapid spreading of racism and xenophobia,” Pressley said. “We have witnessed at the highest levels, in fact, the Republican Party fanning irresponsibly these flames. One colleague tweeted that ‘Everything you need to know about the Chinese coronavirus.'”

“My district is home to nearly 32 percent foreign-born residents with more than a quarter immigrating from Asia,” Pressley continued. “This painful rhetoric has consequences. Restaurants across Boston’s Chinatown have seen up to an 80 percent drop in business, and I believe this has everything to do with the rapid spread of misinformation and paranoia. It is critical that we stand against these inciteful messages… in our communities.”

As I have long said here- liberals have ZERO long term memory and now- no short term memory either

Senator Chris Murphy last week:

"Trump thinks he's a dictator!"

Murphy this week:

"Why isn't Trump acting like a dictator????"

Sen. Dick Blumenthal is bewildered by the last two months

Really?? What might Blumenthal and his stupid colleagues have been doing over the last two months instead of being concerned with the Corona virus?

China is currently attempting to shift blame for the Corona virus to the US. The Chinese Minister of Disinformation:

HOORAY Dr. John. Perspective! I heard perceptive/opposing viewpoints were banned. It could be fake news...I dunno.

Thanks, Chief

More good than bad will result from this virus.

China will no longer be able to threaten us with shutting down medication shipments.

OVERALL, Trump can take stronger action against China because Americans don’t like being held hostage by communist regimes..well...except bernie and his followers and some other dems.

I think Trump will come out stronger because although dems always think they have a winning issue against Trump, it always backfires.

More than just medication production will be looked at.

Many things made overseas that are quite essential will be looked at and I’m sure Trump will try to bring a lot of that work back here.

DirecTV lets me stream episodes of shows and I was binge watching Expedition Unknown the other day.

For sarcastic reasons, I assume, every other commercial was a Corona ad.

There are trillions or quadrillions of corona virii.

That’s almost more than the liberal lies.
