If “in trouble” means not re-elected I’m not so sure. You underestimate his ability to control his base. His plan, already noticeable, will be to blame foreigners as always. (UK....you can still visit cuz you’re like us) And it will work. Drive home that this is a foreign virus. And his proxies will go right to conspiracies that the Chinese did this on purpose specifically to nail Trump. His base will eat that up. And if it starts to clear up? He’ll take full credit. May be a win/win for him.

The same person who gave you the nugget about the team Trump cut has also said that restricting flow from the EU will work bc most of our new cases were coming from there. Decision that was made based on the math. Isnt that what you guys preach? If it starts to clear up he will take credit. And his opponents will claim that it wasnt that big of a deal after saying the world was ending and blaming him for it. Everyone gets their confirmation bias. We forget about it in two months and China continues to own us. Rinse and repeat.

Singapore and Thailand have contained the virus because they had a pandemic plan of action.
The US is making it up as we go along.

I wish Trump had the power his counterpart in Singapore does. Things would be a lot different. Anyways. Here is the patron saint. If he keeps agreeing with Drumpf he will soon be the enemy.

Bloomberg article of all places. Trump sided with the medical experts over the financial experts. Putting lives ahead of the stock market.

And if a global depression is caused by shutting things down for a month then the socialists are going to win. So the hedge funds and banks better have their eyes open before they short America.

I wish Trump had the power his counterpart in Singapore does. Things would be a lot different. Yeah if only he had the power to create an agency that had a pandemic response capability.

We have the CDC and the FDA. And they are the problem. Government is the problem. The testing issues and vaccine will ultimately be developed by the private sector. Mark my words. And it will be the FDA that slows them down. I dont know what power Trump has to cut the tape and let the states and local hospitals do whats best for them but he should be doing it and do it fast.

I think you are far too optimistic about people who choose hedge funds as a way to make living. I could be wrong. Maybe they want the socialists. These people have adapted very well to big government. They like when government picks the winners and loser for them. Eliminates all the guess work they used to have to do. And if the government gets it wrong, they get a bailout and get to buy up everything again.

Taiwan had the worlds most successful containment, despite being quite the mirror of China. english.kyodonews.net/news/2020/03/1e7864b88592-focus-taiwan-beating-the-odds-on-covid-19.htmlThey did it by a level of forcefulness and societal buy-in that seems anathema in our country. Trump was called racist for the China travel ban. Taiwan SENT doctors on flights to and from Wuhan to pre-screen passengers before they got on planes to come to Taiwan. Can you imagine how that would have gone down here?

When Trump came to office he shredded all of the pandemic response plans that the CDC had created in the past and insisted that no one ever think about pandemics again!
