Fake news. Come on you can do it. A: what actions POTUS should have taken 2: when he should have implemented each action, exact dates please #: and what the key factor that would have triggered each action.

You’re on the snowflake list, too. The only problem is that you don't own the "Snowflake List". You and your ilk are so unoriginal that you had to try to take the pejorative term and claim it as your own.

I think he's done an excellent job pointing out the flaws in planning on the state level, the challenges with knee jerk reactions on requests to FEMA from the states, and in bringing the story directly to the American people via daily pressers and twitter. FEMA. Has 14,000 employees the director makes 120-170k a year, Witt a budget of $18bil but POTUS should have had them prepared for a virus that didn’t exist 6 months ago.

I know Chinese Americans who have taken a lot of crap over that. Kids, as a matter of fact. The only reason to characterize the virus as such is to inflame. Edit:. I have to clarify. Not all references to China in this area are bad. Eg, “numbers in China are down” are perfectly fine. The context is key, and characterizing the virus as the Chinese virus is what I take significant issue with. 5 minutes ago, Gary M said: FEMA.

I can understand the Kung Flu version, though I personally think it's pretty humorous, but I think transparency is both reasonable and necessary. A few years ago, a family was murdered not far from where I live. Family of 4, Mom and Dad with two middle-school aged children. The murder remains unsolved, but the scene was by all accounts horrific, with a message being sent based on the order of the murders and the brutality of it all. It seems the conventional wisdom was that the father was involved in illegal activity with the Chinese triads, and there have been reports of same in the media. The general consensus is that there was no threat to other members of the community for that reason. Would you consider that to be unreasonable reporting..given that the possibility of mistrust in the community? I don't really see an alternative, with this particular virus... especially given the international coverage of the "Wuhan Flu" and "Chinese Virus" as initially reported just about everywhere.

Don’t know enough about the horrible situation you described, but at first glance that characterization seems ok b/c there is a reasonable basis for the specification. The virus i see differently b/c the only reason to specify as trump (and others, to be fair) have in that context is to inflame. It’s not like there are two COVID pandemics and there is a need to distinguish b/w the viruses in that way. thinking about your point further ... I don’t know on the family situation. “Organized crime” might have worked there. I guess the best answer is that this is a fact specific issue, and the virus references fall on the wrong side of the line. Where that line is admittedly is a hard thing to specify. Kind of invokes the “I know it when I see it” principle from the US Supreme Court indecency cases. good points for thought and for debate on your end though, for sure.
