    1. It took a global pandemic for people to realize Trumps strict travel ban should’ve been fully taken but Pelosi being the traitor she is decided he was xenophobic and enacted the No Ban Act.

    Edit: *I’m a conservative and I hate hypocritical lying democrats but it doesn’t change the fact that Donald Trump reaction to Coronavirus has crossed all limits of clownery, idiocracy and selfishness!
    He lacks empathy he doesn’t care about the people,he’s EXTREMLY delusional. All he does is spread hatred among people.

    *HE’S AN EVIL MONSTER!*

    1. @Dave S he saif it to head off any criticisms. Were there no legitimate criticisms? Saying that he was only talking about “lies” being told is alsona weak argument.

      He got away with calling everything a Hoax before and he was just trying to re use it.

    2. @terry walker That’s alright because republicans are quite happy slaughtering everyone once they are born.

  3. So me being black female I’m pose to think a certain way, my silly snowflake that would be unamerican

    1. His next show will be the debates where he humiliates Biden. It will have the highest ratings ever!

    2. @John DewispelaereThat would be the only thing that could save your Party now, isn’t it?… Ha, ha, ha!!!

    3. Trolling! He is giving it his best shot! 250 times on the course since he first infested the White House! Almost 30% of his regime! The rest spent tweeting, watching Faux news and taking “Executive Time”! LOL!

  4. “As polls continue to show…” In other words, Trump is in no trouble at all.

  5. This is why he has open churches. With no guild lines. Because they are the ones that keep him above the water. It is pure sad.

    1. @Brian Bianco All you need to do is infect a few blankets. It doesn’t take much. This story took place in Canada during British colonization. It was the British that sent the blankets to native populations there, and it was intentional.

    2. We hate you! We will remove you from AMERICA. You are a GLOBALIST. You are on AMERICAN TECHNOLOGY. We don’t want your ilk anymore. Hide. Twenty 21 will scare the LEFT to death

    1. The pillar of shame? Lol are you kidding. You lefties have destroyed America through the genocide of the unborn, you lot demonstrate to kill babies right up to birth. God you lefties are messed up and pure evil. 🙄

    2. Did you happen to notice that this FAKE NEWS report forgot to mention that Trump SHUT DOWN air travel from….CHINA…..on January 27th when only we had 1 death? What did CNN do…? They called him a racist and a xenophobe. .. you peope have a very short memory. You hate Trump more than you like the truth. Its pathetic how easily you posters can be brainwashed by the FAKE NEWS MEDIA.

  6. Damn Fareed, this was spot freaking on! Calling both sides out for EXACTLY what they are and doing! Bravo!!

    1. The money that Mexico is spending, using the army and all their resources, to prevent hordes of immigrants coming up from the triad,( Honduras, etal.) is money that the USA is NOT spending. In fact, Trump did mention it. This goes along way with deferring costs that we were having to pay for border security, and all the associated costs with health, food and placement. Yeah, I’d say Mexico is paying a pretty good chunk of it.

    2. Carl Fratus All the costs associated with border security. We’re spending less on aliens that reach American soil, due to Mexico spending more. The physical wall? No. Border security? Yes.

    3. @Jim Skarw ending the War on Drugs would solve most of our annual budgetary problems, well atleast before covid-19 it would have. Drugs should be legalized and taxes, we would no longer suffer the burden of the cost of enforcement. This would end the conflicts in Mexico, which would let legal businesses thrive there, life would improve for those poor people in Mexico and South America, and then those people wouldn’t be fleeing for their lives due to constant threats from cartels.
      You’re sure you believe in fiscal conservatism and saving money, because you sound like you’re going about it all wrong. Or are you just gonna be afraid of the boogeyman the rest of your life?

    1. Yes. Yes. Yes!!!!! Incinerate. Those. ANTS. And. Punish. Them. For. This. Playing. Around. With. GERMS!!!!!

    2. Well, hate to say it but wrong. If somehow he did start a war with China before November, sadly there will be no more elections in America, forever.
      Who knows, Trump might hold a different thought.

  7. Thank you for keeping an objective report; it’s refreshing to hear the mistakes both sides are making, altho, and even-tho, the pandemic is not a political disease. 🤔

  8. the media is to blame, they have been blasting biased reports about China 24/7, this creates a breeding ground for the McCarthyism 2.0
