Pelosi's Complete 180 on Trump Halting Flights from China

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) repeatedly criticized President Donald Trump’s decision to halt flights to and from China. In fact, she led her Democratic colleagues in calling the president a xenophobe and a racist for making such a decision.

“One point of clarification I was wondering. Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign told me earlier this month that he supported President Trump’s partial travel restrictions on January 31st, blocking foreign nationals from China coming to the United States,” CNN’s Jake Tapper said on Sunday. “Do you agree that it was the right move by President Trump at the time?”

“… Actually, tens of thousands of people were still allowed in from China. So it wasn’t as it’s described, as this great moment,” Pelosi said with a smile. “There were Americans come back, green card holders coming back, but there were tens of thousands.”

“So, if you’re going to shut the door because you have an evaluation of an epidemic, then shut the door,” the speaker said.

After Democrats criticized China travel ban, Nancy Pelosi now says it should've "shut the door" on the re-entry of Americans.

What Pelosi is saying makes absolutely no sense. Democrats continually said Trump was a “racist” and a “xenophobe” for a halting flights from China. They somehow came to the conclusion that the Trump administration was blaming Asian Americans for the coronavirus starting in Wuhan.

In fact, just last week, Pelosi came under fire for encouraging people to visit Chinatown in San Francisco as a way of “end[ing] the discrimination, the stigma that was going out against the Asian American community.”

If President Trump wouldn’t even allow Americans or green card holders to back home, Democrats would have doubled down and said that was racist. They would have said he was so afraid of the Chinese people that he wouldn’t even let people home simply because they visited China.

Democrats are trying to play all sides of this issue and it’s pathetic. Regardless of what Trump did or didn’t do, the Democrats would label him a racist, a xenophobe and an overall terrible person who only cares about himself.

I am reminded of a humor monologue statement which could be Pelosi:

Which way did they go ?
I must find them !
Which way did they go ?
I am their leader and I can't find them ..
Which way did they go ?

I can see it now:

"The Republican Party is filled with racists. All those black people who died of COVID-19 in places like New York and Detroit would still be alive today if they were allowed to work outside and pick cotton in Alabama and Mississippi like they used to!" -- Nancy Pelosi

She’s nuts if she thinks the President has the power to prevent Americans from coming home after their vacations to China. I think a batter argument could be made that he should have allowed the cruise ships to dock sooner. The boats were eventually going to be allowed in because there were Americans on board. Letting them in sooner would have reduced the number of infections. Instead the witch is ranting about letting Americans come home.

Amazing. That IS what’s she’s saying, i.e., that Trump didn’t go far enough and that American citizens who were traveling in China (most of whom were likely Chinese-Americans) should be forced to stay there. Incredible. Absolutely incredible chutzpah of this b—ch, the veritable Queen of Open Border policy, to now try to out-Trump Trump and paint herself as a hardliner who’d exclude even U.S. citizens from reentering the country. Absolutely incredible.

I cannot reconcile the first sentence in the OP...
"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) repeatedly criticized President Donald Trump’s decision to halt flights to and from China [??? emphasis added]."

With third prograph.

“… Actually, tens of thousands of people were still allowed in from China [??? emphasis added]. […]"

There’s timeline confusion. Or is Pelosi trying to rewrite history?

Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping COVID-19 will effectively give fast-working Trump a third term in office imo.

MAGA, also KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)

DEMOCRATS IN LOCKSTEP--as usual

Feb 20 Pelosi went to Cali Chinatown to stick it to Pres Trump. She tweeted:
"It was a pleasure to make fortune cookies at the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory.
The message inside? “United We Stand.”

====================================

Joe Biden's sucking-up to Communist Chinese bigtime: Biden says "Chinese leaders are good folks."

<><>Hunter Biden served on the board of the billion dollar Chinese private equity company BHR Partners,

<><> Hunter organized a meet-and-greet between his father, then-VP Joe Biden, and BHR CEO Jonathan Li on Dec. 4, 2013, according to New Yorker magazine. =====================================

When he threw his hat into the 2020 ring, Biden came out swinging. He mocked President Donald Trump's position on China at a campaign rally.

BIDEN: “China is going to eat our lunch? Come on, man...they can’t even figure out how to deal with the fact that they have this great division between the China Sea and the mountains in the east, I mean in the west.... they can’t even figure out how they’re going to deal with the corruption that exists within the system. I mean, you know, they’re not bad folks, folks. But guess what, they’re not, they’re not competition for us.”
