.....”This is the most aggressive response to a national emergency from a POTUS and administration I have witnessed since my political awakening over five decades ago”.....

I agree...

I think during 9/11 it was when the Pres. grounded all aircraft and how the entire Airline Industry, Tower Staff, Ground crews, Pilots, and Military actually pulled that off without incident...that I knew then whatever comes against this nation it's good people will come together and make happen whatever is necessary to protect this country.

But this was a horse of a different color....how do you close down a country from an invisable enemy you can't see other than the trail of death and illness it leaves in it's path? How do you get ahead of something you can't see?...... Although I think people were a little slow in understanding how serious this was, but as they did come to understand for the most part they did the right thing to protect our medical system, themselves and their families as well as the public in general.

Th Pres. did the right thing as I see it.

Concur...My duck-and-cover elementary schooldays, fear of polio, Cuban Missiles-the cold war, civil unrest of the 60s and my Naval career did not create the butterflies in my stomach as intensely as this virus has. I'm in agreement that Trump had to act as he has.
