Vice President Biden stated the cold, hard truth with his tweet. Supporters of all candidates also should remember

There is a vaccine in trials and if it works Don the Con will take credit and these kinds of political statements that Trump can’t handle it won’t age well.

What they do have is an untested SARS vaccine that they hope might be effective for this outbreak or at least slowdown the spread and/or reduce the severity. If I recall correctly those vaccine samples are in Houston in cold storage. They never tested the samples because SARS finally burned itself out.

Guess we'll find out one way or the other.

Look at what he did to Obama's economic recovery. He's an albatross.

If he mismanages something positive, don't give him a disaster.

"Eh". Though, of course one cannot disagree with one word but... it's a bit boilerplate, though, then again what more can one say? It's shattering, every bungling moment (from A-Hole Face not Joe) stings like bees inside ones head. So at times one wants to hear more, something, anything that says more, that feels more, the makes one sting inside the head less. I'll be boarding another airplane tonight (two in one week- hazard of my work) and when they spray that spray down the isle's it feels about as futile as boilerplate while "HE's" about to slash CDC funding
I dunno-
(oh, and speaking of "I don't know&quot I'm a newbie here and I feel kinda lost-
How does one introduce oneself?

work, he'll pull out his sharpie and modify the results of whatever coronavirus info there is.

People will die at the hand of his stupidity. But what's new.

Joe is 100% correct and time is running out to get a cogent plan against the anticipated onslaught of the virus.

I'm as concerned about Trump bungling our emergency response as I am about the spreading virus. Just this evening I read a clip claiming Trump doesn't want anyone in the Administration talking about Covid-19 because he fears it will ruin his reelection chances.

Really?

We're talking real human lives at risk and the man wants to pull a blanket over his head and pretend it's not happening while making nonsense comments that 'we have it all under control.'

While WHO is loathe to call the virus spread a pandemic, the scientific community is not so squeamish. The worldwide warnings are out there whether Trump likes it or not. Or Larry Kudlow in an attempt to juice the market's slide saying that there's no risk of an economic hit from the coronavirus, even as the rest of the world begins to lean into recession.

We couldn't have a worse bunch of incompetents in charge. God help us all!

Biden's tweet is on point: a pandemic will require global coordination and cooperation. It requires leadership, something we sorely lack at the moment.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
