The president has decisively acted and invoked the Defense Production Act for the first time since the Korean War. The president will now be able to nationalize critical industrial resources and redirect civil manufactuting to produce masks, medications, weaponry, and police supplies as he deems necessary for the Republic to survive the coming storm.

All obeisance is owed to Trump!

Surely that article must be mistaken. I've heard Trump say that coronavirus is "very much under control" in the U.S.

It is. And with his decisive action it'll be kept that way.

Why doesn't he activate a 3-D printer for production of a gun to shoot himself in the head

I'm more scared of Chlamydia than Coronovirus

Sorry, thought Trump said there were 15, and all but 2 or 3 were cured...
Surely Trump wasn't wrong or lying?

Correct, he wasn't. He said there were 15 cases detected through epidemiological surveillance and 45 from American citizens he evacuated from the Diamond Princess.

So, in other words, his wisdom has kept the U.S. with only 15 cases while the rest of the world burns. However, his magnanimity allowed the repatriation of 45 carriers infected abroad under secure and controlled conditions.

Lol

And this is why I hate that our votes have the same value

The reason we have less cases is because we're not land locked with China and his cabinet told him what to do i.e. shut down flight from China and the CDC took care of the rest

Trump probably did worse in his response than the average president would have which makes him borderline negligiant

If a Western leader doesn't get the numbers 100% right it was obviously a simple mistake or underestimation, unlike if a Chinese leaders gets them slightly wrong in which case it is obviously oppressive 1984-esque propaganda.

Splitting hairs is important

Intent is everything

There's a difference between making a mistake and blatant lying about a global epidemic with real life consequences

It has nothing to do with Chinese disease or Western leaders

Your simple mindedness is puzzling

It has nothing to do with racism.

It's because they're Asian so they should be good at math.
