He should have shut down the Chicom trade pipeline. But he didn’t. He is a Chicom bitch.

did he actually do anything or just mention it in an obscure speech that probably no more than a few hundred heard? Why wasn’t the media driving this story in 2005? Why didn’t the media demand an effective response during the 2009 Swine Flu? I guess the media didn’t get interested in pandemics until they figured they could bash Trump with it.

On Jan 29th, Feb 3rd and Feb 17....Fauci said....don't even worry about it....chances are miniscule.

Now he is saying that he didn't pay attention to the projections...but used the China and other data from different countries.

He has also said he didn't give a damn about the economy...that's not his job.

And a reminder, President Trump mentioned the Coronavirus in his SOTU on Feb 5th and closed incoming from China.

Now Nancy tore up the SOTU as being lies. And Chuckie called the President a racist for shutting down incoming from China.

And Nancy...She actually went to China Town and told everyone to come on down...after the warnings about the Coronavirus.

"George W. Bush Warned about Future Flu Pandemic in 2005"

Too bad he lacked the wit to close the Borders, halt illegal immigration, and resist the urge to waste more of the tax payers money than any President since Lyndon Johnson.

If the Bushes had had half the intelligence of Donald Trump, Jeb might not have failed in his bid for the Presidency. They certainly had the financial and political resources.

Back then they were worried about avian flu.
Anyone seen a vaccine yet?

One of the worst presidents of all time.

In fact, reminds me of weak presidents leading up to our civil war.

Clinton
Bush
Obama

They caused great harm to our country

Yes, there actually has been a pandemic plan in place for years. I was actually part of the pandemic response for a few years, during which time I helped with the Ebola outbreak of 2015.

President Trump is working according to the pandemic plan.

Bush Jr. and Obama were the twin towers of American stagnation and self-mutilation.

Why the hell should I care for what either of those traitorous bastards have to say?

He had just watched one of the dozens of pandemic movies that have been produced in the last twenty years. (perhaps even “The Omega Man”. Forerunner of the Zombie movies. Wow, a “news” story based on a movie script that has circulated since movies were invented. They are really good reporters..

After any Black Swan event - as Nickolas Taleb would tell you - you can and always will rationalize that you woulda coulda shoulda foreseen it.

The fact that people are doing it now is meaningless. It’s no trick to cry “Wolf!”
You can even cry “Wolf!” at the right time. The trick is to cry “Wolf!” at the right time and at no other time.

It wasn’t lack of wit or intelligence, Bush League Republicans are hell bent on the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA), destroying our sovereignty and subsuming the USA to the UN is the end game.

Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama.

It was GHW Bush who failed to take action against China after the Tiananmen Square massacre.

Great post but I wish you had the links to what Fauci said. Some of my in-laws would not believe me if I told them. Trump knew is all they can spout.
