If Trump had tried to do that, douchebags like you would be screaming the loudest that he was xenophobic and unnecessarily destroying the economy. In fact, that is exactly what your ilk did.What did Taiwan do?Wow! Trump is awesome! He’s third on the list! And that horrible Obummer is 11th. He sucked so bad!
Trump at one point was #1 on the list, but he is rapidly falling now. He might have to settle for #8 on the list by the time he leaves office on January 20, 2021.
Yeah man. He earned that #1 spot. The drop isn’t his fault though.
Its definitely his fault. If Trump had reacted to the pandemic the way TAIWAN did, less than 8,000 Americans would have been infected, and less than 160 would have died. The virus would be contained, and any new infections would be handled with contact tracing and selective isolation of individuals. The economy would be opened up and people would be going about their normal lives. That's the way it is in TAIWAN. TAIWAN was smart because the sealed off the country and locked down everything back in January. They got a very tiny amount of the virus thanks to their early restrictive policies. This has allowed them to go back to normal, with the less than 500 people who have been sick, and only 7 deaths in a country of 25 million people.
Trump had his chance and he failed and the American public will soon vote him out of office.
Oh? If he did what Taiwan did you would have called him a dictator. We know you love authoritarianism but don't accuse Trump of being one, when he CLEARLY is not.
What Taiwan did is what Franklin Roosevelt would have done. Franklin Roosevelt was not a dictator. Franklin Roosevelt ended the careers of dictators. Trump had an opportunity to protect this country from Covid-19 and he FAILED. There are now 192,000 dead Americans from Covid-19. If the United States had done as well as TAIWAN on a per capita basis, there would have only been around 100 dead.
TAIWAN IS NOT A DICATORSHIP. TAIWAN IS A DEMOCRACY LIKE THE UNITED STATES!
BTW, FDR certainly was a dictator.
FDR ended the careers of dictator's and insured that democracy would not perish from the earth. You and I currently live in a world that he created with Harry S. Truman.
Taiwan sealed off their country from all foreign travel/trade of any type on January 20, 2020. Even citizens of TAIWAN were blocked from returning to TAIWAN. Later, TAIWANESE citizens were allowed to return, but had to be locked in quarantine upon arrival at the airport or seaport and had to remain in quarantine for 14+ days and TEXT NEGATIVE for coronavirus on at least two test before they would be allowed out.
Because TAIWAN dramatically and suddenly enforced this in January, the number and scale of their lockdowns was much smaller because the virus spread within the country was so tiny. It was also easy for contact tracers to track and isolate anyone that got infected.
The United States can't even do contact tracing effectively because the number of people infected is too large.
Again, Taiwan is an island. It's very easy for Taiwan to seal off its border. It's much harder for the US to do that, especially when Dim douchebags are trying everything possible to prevent it.
