The administration also wanted to take out billions of dollars that would go to the Pentagon and State Department to allow them to better combat the pandemic both domestically and internationally, the Post reports.

It's NOT our responsibility to *combat the pandemic .... internationally*.

If other countries want to battle it, let them pay for it themselves.

If they don't, prohibit all travel to and from those countries, even if they fly to a safe country to bypass the restriction.

If you have had a presence in a banned country within the last (fill in the blank) there's no getting in the US, period.

I agree 100%. One thing Trump wants to do and has been able to start, is pare down fed agencies, get rid of fraud, waste and abuse, cut foreign aid tremendously - much of which goes to countries who hate the US and much of which is outright stolen by elites or given to Soros NGOs. Trump wants to eliminate some agencies, have others merge, cut staff and junk things that they do, etc.

It will be pedal to the metal in his second term.
