Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden revealed Friday that he would re-lock down the United States if scientists recommended the extreme measure to stop the spread of the Chinese coronavirus.
“I would shut it down; I would listen to the scientists,” Biden replied when asked by ABC’s World News Tonight anchor David Muir if he would shut down the country if experts proposed the measure.
“I will be prepared to do whatever it takes to save lives because we cannot get the country moving until we control the virus,” Biden, flanked by running mate Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), said. “That is the fundamental flaw of this administration’s thinking to begin with. In order to keep the country running and moving and the economy growing, and people employed, you have to fix the virus, you have to deal with the virus.”
Biden’s remarks come one day after the former vice president pledged to implement a national mask mandate during his Democrat National Convention nomination acceptance speech. Days earlier, Biden said all Americans should wear masks “outside.”
“Let’s institute a mask mandate nationwide,” he proposed. “Every single American should be wearing a mask when they are outside for the next three months at a minimum.”
Re-shutting down the country, something President Donald Trump has opposed, would be a move at least some Americans could potentially disagree with.

Biden is the best thing we could ask for to run against Biden.
While I have my concerns this country is stupid enough to elect Biden. But telling the independents and undecided voters to completely shut down again is not a winning stance. I guess the DEMs will need even more voter fraud to compensate.
He hates this country so much it disgusts me.
WHICH "Scientists"? There is NO consensus of opinion on the value of shutting the country down. In fact, I'd wager that three-quarters of "scientists" think that the damage done by locking down is far, far worse than the risk of spreading the disease.
daytime outside is when the UV kills viruses in the air so is the stupidest place to demand masks.
WHICH “Scientists”?
Great point. There is no consensus!
Very few people want that. Even most mask NAZIs realize that a total lockdown would be a disaster.
Keep talking jo.
Be sure to get in front of TV cameras to do it.
.
Biden is so freaking brain-addled. He doesn’t know his ass from a mask.
Joe just locked in the Karen and Chad votes.
The ones that vote democrat.
Truth. We need to be compiling lists of everything he says he’s gonna do.
What on earth are these hand wringing Marys going to do come October when the cold and flu season starts. They all but have heart failure if anyone sniffs, blows their nose, coughs or sneezes already. People all but run if a person sneezes 3 aisles away at the store. It’s going to be a very interesting fall/winter I think.
BREAKING:
Chinese Communist Newspaper ENDORSES JOE BIDEN
24News ^ | 08-20-2020 | Joe Callen
by Joe Callen No folks, this is NOT ‘The Onion.’ The Global Times is a daily tabloid newspaper and voice of the Chinese Communist Party in Beijing.On Thursday (China time), on the same day as Joe Biden’s much anticipated Democrat Party convention speech, the Chinese Communist newspaper endorsed Joe Biden for President of the United States.
The Global Times says Joe Biden may reactivate the job-killing TPP and the Iran nuclear deals pushed by the Obama administration. China is rooting for a weak America. Trump is rooting for a strong America.
"Experts" propose all sorts of crazy stuff -- and as we've recently demonstrated, "experts" are usually wrong.
I did Not hear
“Shut It Down” !!!
only the Mask BS.
Shut it Down might Not
Be so popular since the
Virus is almost

The mind-bereft dunce thinks that will distinguish himself from Trump who “ignored the experts and killed thousands of people.”
Mr Biden, f—k you, you puss filled pimple head traitor.
