January 15, 2020 - Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) holds a vote to send articles of impeachment to the Senate. Pelosi and House Democrats celebrate the "solemn" occasion with a signing ceremony, using commemorative pens.

"On Jan. 17, the CDC and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that American citizens returning from travel-restricted countries were being rerouted to specific airports, where they would be screened and isolated.

January 20, 2020 – The National Institutes of Health announces that it is working on a vaccine against the coronavirus under president Trumps direction. “The NIH is in the process of taking the first steps towards the development of a vaccine,” says Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

January 29, 2020 – The White House announces the formation of a new task force that will help monitor and contain the spread of the virus, and ensure Americans have accurate and up-to-date health and travel information, it said.

"Biden’s supposed chronicle of Trump administration failures derides the president’s statement on Jan. 22, saying, “We have it totally under control, it is one person, coming in from China…” What was actually happening in the United States on Jan. 22? It was one person coming in from China. And the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) had yet to confirm the human-to-human spread of the virus."
"Jan. 24: The CDC confirmed the second U.S. case of coronavirus, adding again that “based on what we know right now, the immediate risk to America remains low.”"

January 30, 2020 – The US reports its first confirmed case of person-to-person transmission of the Wuhan coronavirus. On the same day, the WHO determines that the outbreak constitutes a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC).
January 31, 2020 – The Donald Trump administration announces it will deny entry to foreign nationals who have traveled in China in the last 14 days.

January 30, 2020 - Senators begin asking two days of questions of both sides in the president's impeachment trial.

February 4, 2020 - The White House directed the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to step up coronavirus diagnostic testing procedures.

"Feb. 5: The CDC issued a public statement saying, “While we continue to believe the immediate risk of 2019nCoV exposure to the general public is low, CDC is undertaking measures to help keep that risk low.”'
February 3, 2020 – House impeachment managers begin closing arguments, calling Trump a threat to national security.
February 4, 2020 – President Trump talks about coronavirus in his State of the Union address; Pelosi rips up every page.
February 5, 2020 – The Senate votes to acquit President Trump on both articles of impeachment, 52-48 and 53-47.
February 5, 2020 – House Democrats finally take up coronavirus in the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Asia.
February 11, 2020 – The WHO names the coronavirus COVID-19.
February 26, 2020 – President Donald Trump places Vice President Mike Pence in charge of the US government response to the novel coronavirus, amid growing criticism of the White House’s handling of the outbreak.

February 25, 2020 - Pelosi says, "...there’s no reason tourists or locals should be staying away from the area <Chinatown festival> out of fear over coronavirus concerns.
On Feb. 29, the first death from the coronavirus was recorded in the United States. On that date, President Trump halted travel with Iran.
On March 11, the WHO declared coronavirus a worldwide pandemic. The next day, on March 12, President Trump imposed travel restrictions on Europe and elsewhere.
Biden criticized that decision also.

March 13, 2020 - President Trump declared a national emergency.

March 13, 2020 - Democrats demand more testing for COVID19.
March 13, 2020 - Dr Fauci and other virologusts call for flattening the curve, not lockdowns. Five months later we are still having calls for stricter lockdowns from Democrat governors.
March 15, 2020 - Dr Fauci calls for a temporary 14 day lockdown to flatten the curve of COVID19.
June 4, 2020 - “We should always evaluate the risks and benefits of efforts to control the virus,” Jennifer Nuzzo, a Johns Hopkins epidemiologist, tweeted on Tuesday. “In this moment the public health risks of not protesting to demand an end to systemic racism greatly exceed the harms of the virus.”
“The injustice that’s evident to everyone right now needs to be addressed,” Abraar Karan, a Brigham and Women’s Hospital physician who’s exhorted coronavirus experts to amplify the protests' anti-racist message, told me. "While I have voiced concerns that protests risk creating more outbreaks, the status quo wasn’t going to stop #covid19 either," he wrote on Twitter this week.
It’s a message echoed by media outlets and some of the most prominent public health experts in America, like former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director Tom Frieden, who loudly warned against efforts to rush reopening but is now supportive of mass protests.

So the Democrats have not only been skeptics of the COVID19 virus, but they have been disrupting efforts to contain it, failing to support Trump at every turn, and then blaming it all on Trump instead of the Chicoms in Beijing, or their own malefeance.
Plainly the BLM protests spurred the second wave of COVID19 and the Democrats hve not hesitated in blaming that on Trump as well and using it as an excuse to further attack Christian churches for having meetings while BLM burns down America.

You left out the part where the blob's CDC was recommending social distancing before the blob's DHS forced Americans who were not screened (much less tested) to stand shoulder-to-shoulder for hours at 13 airports across the nation. Each of which represented a Covid19 Hot Spot.
And you left out the source of your information, the date and direct quotes.

Sorry, what you did does not constitute a rebuttal at all.

The blob didn't have enough screeners on the ground and peole at the airports were jammed together for hours as a result. This was while the blob's CDC was telling Americans to practice social distancing.
Lol, you are being ridiculous. We did not know how the disease spread. There were theories for everything under the sun, from fecal to airborne virus to no spreading without physical contact.

Trump declared the emergency on March 13, which means he had hardly any time responding to the crisis, meanwhile Democrats are still trying to figure out a new way to impeach Trump after the last attempt failed, lol.

And as bad as that lack of social distancing was, it wasnt any worse than the BLM protests that are still going on all over the country.

But once again, you TDS Dems fault Trump for anything he does, even though he has shown much better leadership than any Democrat so far. All you guys do is sit on the sidelines and say "We could do it better!"

The CDC said to social distance on March 2.
The blob's DHS packed everyone into airports on 3/13.
lol, the CDC can make RECOMMENDATIONS all they want, but that is all it is, ma'am.

That is a weak argument even for you.

Actually the CDC does have powers to do more than "make recommendations"

So you had Trump's CDC saying to do one thing.
And you had Trump's DHS doing another.

It's just one of the many, many ways he botched it. If you were capable of honesty, you'd admit it.
 


Moderna’s vaccine is reportedly estimated to cost about $15 per dose.
According to the company, the government will provide the vaccine to the U.S. public free of charge.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) explained on Tuesday:
If these doses are used in a COVID-19 [coronavirus disease] vaccination campaign, the vaccine would be available to the American people at no cost. As is customary with government-purchased vaccines, healthcare professionals could charge for the cost of administering the vaccine.
Under the agreement, the government will reportedly have the option to buy up to an additional 400 million additional doses.
“With the latest deal, the U.S. has agreed to spend more than $9 billion for the shots,” the Wall Street Journal noted on Tuesday. “It has also invested in vaccine research and development, as well as supplies like vials and syringes.”
The agreement marked the sixth vaccine-related deal by the U.S. government, which has already secured over 500 million doses from other drugmakers as part of Operation Warp Speed, including Johnson & Johnson, Novavax, Pfizer and Sanofi, and AstraZeneca.
President Trump has promised to develop and deliver a safe and effective vaccine in record time (by January 2021) through his administration’s multi-billion-dollar Operation Warp Speed, a public-private partnership....
In collaboration with the U.S. government, Moderna is already conducting the final part of a three-phase clinical trial to clear the vaccine for widespread use.
At the moment, the Moderna candidate is the only one in the final phase. The manufacturing of the doses purchased by the Trump administration will reportedly take place while the trials are underway.
There are about a dozen other vaccine candidates in the U.S., including five or six backed by the U.S. government, going into the Phase 3 trials over the next few months, Trump administration officials have said.
“There’s never a guarantee that you’re going to get a safe and effective vaccine,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, told lawmakers late last month.
“We feel cautiously optimistic that we will have a vaccine by the end of this year and as we go into 2021,” Fauci, a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, added.
Trump said that the U.S. might have a vaccine by the presidential Election Day on November 3.
“Moderna has previously said its vaccine could get emergency approval in the fall if it proves to work safely in late-stage clinical trials, and has begun ramping up manufacturing in advance,” the Wall Street Journal pointed out.


There is no way an apparatchik like Biden would have implemented and Operation Warp Drive.
 

The seven-day moving average count of new deaths had plateaued at around 1,000 as of the end of Tuesday after a second spike that began in July and remained below peak levels, data maintained by the COVID Tracking Project revealed:

Trump is the President of the United States- and under his Presidency 160,000 Americans have died.
Trump is responsible for the actions of the United States not Democrats.
Trump lied to Americans about the severity of the disease, he lied to Americans to protect his re-election campaign- and to this day refuses to heavily promote the very policies his own scientific and medical experts have been saying are needed since April- mask wearing and social distancing.
Trump never prepared for a pandemic. For years, he had multiple warningsbriefings, reports, simulations, intelligence assessments—that a crisis such as this one was likely and that the government wasn’t ready for it. In April, he admitted that he was informed of the risks: “I always knew that pandemics are one of the worst things that could happen.” But when the virus arrived, the federal government was still ill-equipped to deal with it. According to Trump, “We had no ventilators. We had no testing. We had nothing.”

That’s an exaggeration. But it’s true that the stockpile of pandemic supplies was depleted and that the government’s system for producing virus tests wasn’t designed for such heavy demand. So why, for the first three years of his presidency, did Trump do nothing about it? He often brags that he spent $2 trillion to beef up the military. But he squeezed the budget for pandemics, disbanded the federal team in charge of protecting the country from biological threats, and stripped down the Beijing office of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

n early January, Trump was warned about a deadly new virus in China. He was also told that the Chinese government was understating the outbreak. (See this timeline for a detailed chronology of what Trump knew and when he knew it.) This was inconvenient, because Trump was about to sign a lucrative trade deal with Beijing. “We have a great relationship with China right now, so I don’t want to speak badly of anyone,” Trump told Laura Ingraham in a Fox News interview on Jan. 10. He added that he was looking forward to a second deal with Xi. When Ingraham asked about China’s violations of human rights, Trump begged off. “I’m riding a fine line because we’re making … great trade deals,” he pleaded.

....
Trump would later claim that he saw from the outset how grim the situation was. That was clear, he recalled, in the “initial numbers coming out from China.” But at the time, he told Americans everything was fine. “We’re in great shape,” he assured Maria Bartiromo in a Fox Business interview on Jan. 22. “China’s in good shape, too.” He preferred to talk about trade instead. “The China deal is amazing, and we’ll be starting Phase Two very soon,” he said. On CNBC, Joe Kernen asked Trump whether there were any “worries about a pandemic.” “No, not at all,” the president replied. “We have it totally under control.” When Kernen asked whether the Chinese were telling the whole truth about the virus, Trump said they were. “I have a great relationship with President Xi,” he boasted. “We just signed probably the biggest deal ever made.”

There were three logical steps to consider after suspending travel from China. The first was suspending travel from Europe. By Jan. 21, Trump’s advisers knew the virus was in France. By Jan. 31, they knew it had reached Italy, Germany, Finland, and the United Kingdom. From conversations with European governments, they also knew that these governments, apart from Italy, weren’t going to block travel from China. And they were directly informed that the flow of passengers from Europe to the United States far exceeded the normal flow of passengers from China to the United States. Trump’s deputy national security adviser, Matthew Pottinger, pleaded for a ban on travel from Europe, but other advisers said this would hurt the economy in an election year. Trump, persuaded by Pottinger’s opponents, refused to go along.
 
Wow, the government responding to a public health crisis....It only took them several months of denying there was a crisis to do it.
Has there been a Republican President you liked since 1960?

I've often said that Reagan shouldn't be on Mt. Rushmore; he should have his own mountain.


Please tell us about Democratic Presidents of late you've admired. We'll wait for your next round of lies.
