Debates


Trump economic advisor Larry Kudlow said the coronavirus is "contained" and people should stay at work.


Well, I'm glad that's over. I knew it was just a Liberal plot to discredit Mr. President. 🙄

I think there is enough hysteria at the moment. I'm not sure telling people to panic more is necessarily the way to go either.

What are you saying?

Sell your stocks, board your houses, horde toilet paper.......!

Personally my only fear is running out of toilet paper. The thought is just too horrific to put into words.

You're gonna die, you just wait!

Don't say I did not warn you!

Then again, will you even care at that point?

And no, for the record, I'm not threatening you like Schumer threatens Supreme court justices he does not like.

So what exactly are your thoughts on the COVID 19 viral pandemic ??

Just wondering.

It seems that a quorum here, who don't like Trump, are saying that he and his administration should not be telling us to live our lives as usual, making thoughtful decisions, and wash our hands. So does this mean that you would rather that our people should be told to stop living their lives, nd maybe instill panic? I remember when George Bush, after 9/11, told everyone to continue on with their lives, to not panic, which certainly was the thing to do. Should Donald be telling us something else?


It is impossible to contain it, just have realistic expectations as well as proper quarantined. Why could they not simply have people on cruise ships get off on an island to quarantine, then ship back to mainland? But such measures are not allowed for some reason.

You're missing the whole point. Telling people the coronavirus is "contained" is lying, pure and simple. Regardless if they're making thoughtful decisions, and washing their hands. - Get it??

If a dem had said it then it would be another person bringing it up and you asking what is the big deal.

Nobody knows how bad it is in US - there are no
reliable stats because hardly anyone is being tested.
However,
looking at the deaths v recovered numbers it seems either US is grossly
under-reporting cases or their health-care is woefully inadequate.
For example:

UK deaths: 4 recovered: 18 (total cases: 280)

US deaths: 22 recovered: 8 (total cases 603)

Assuming the same death rate for UK & US would
suggest total cases in US should be more like 1500.
And 900 of those are wandering around spreading
the virus to on average (apparently) three others.

Now I'm not saying we're all gonna die.
But this is serious for old folk!
