Is Trump's Immigration Announcement Too Little, Too Late? | Morning Joe | MSNBC

90 comments

  1. *Immigration ban?*
    *Well sure – we need to protect ourselves from all those countries who have fewer infected than we do.*

    1. Jesus Says When 1st heard of in January was the ideal decision ,it’s futile to think otherwise, a month 50 State lockdown would’ve open the doors too a corona free experience, not to mention a vaccine when ready, simple.

  2. _”The United States is reporting 43,000 coronavirus deaths (and rising), _*_more than any other country”_*
    *WOO-HOO!!! USA! USA! More winning thanks to The OrangeAnus (R – Impeached)!*

    1. @Rusty Nail Gross numbers count, dog. FFS, even 1 case on a Caribbean nation or Iceland or whatever will throw the per million number WAYYYY out of whack. Anybody who is even part-way competent with statistics knows you would throw out the outliers.

      If that was done, well then top 10, here we come!

      But really classy to dismiss the deaths of 43000 Americans … just cuz you want to protect an idol figure? I’d tell you to go do something, but instead I invite others to leave their thoughts on you below! 🙂

      kiss kiss, rusty cage, errrr nail. Sorry, I always mix up my lame alt right 4chan icels. Oopsie!

    2. @Max Moore don’t know how you got that I was dismissing 43,000 deaths out of my comment. It was just satistics and those numbers come from a neutral website, no political affiliations called, our world in data, if you have a problem with it go take it up with them. As for the rest of your garbage. I didn’t vote for Trump and I’m not a Republican, but you are definitely part of The Lunatic Fringe. Stay safe

    1. @Miguel Lema yep,I will be a good sheep and stay home, where I’m safe,and not run in the wild to get chase by the big bad wolf coronavirus.
      Cause we weren’t already sheep ,working and allowing the government take money out our hands for “taxes”.
      I wonder how many times trump used tax money to play golf.

    2. @Kim Lowe That’s wonderful, Kim. We have plenty of people who love our country. You can stay where you are currently, and maybe offer a room to an American who hates it here so much haha

    3. @Tony Perez You think you can call for the assassination of a sitting or previous U.S. president with no consequences? Not sure what else you meant by your previous statement, hombre.

  3. Here’s a solution to your problem regarding emigrant works shortage, have all the protesting people work on the farms, instead of having them on the street causing more infection

    1. I was thinking the same things. Ask Americans to work the farms for cheap labor if immigrants are stealing their jobs.

    2. “Cheap labor” is taking advantage of people that are desperate and keeping more money at the top

    3. Yup. The MAGA crowd that refuses to shelter at home, refuses to wear masks and practice social distancing in public, who don’t care if they put other people at risk and “want jobs.” Here you go! Be a farmworker and help supply the grocery stores for the rest of us who don’t want to sicken and die.

    1. Chiekh Kane It’s too late now, thanks to the lying Republicans. There was plenty of proof to be impeached, but only one Republican had the guts to stick up for what’s right.

    2. @sandy frye Have you seen what happened when they tried to impeach trump nothing! Do you want me to tell you why Democrats would be sworn under oath and then they would be charged for telling lies so they wimped out

  4. Mexico closed its borders long time ago. You know it’s really bad when Mexico is afraid of Americans

    1. @Q Wins Barr said, so it must be true. Barr is the man who will not let the unredacted version of the Meuller Report be seen in order to protect Trump and you believe his word about corruption in another country?

    2. @Q Wins so he’ll stay in Venezuela,and nobody will do squat about him, too many people keeps proffiting from him,all over the world,so ….go figure…

  5. Agree with Joe. Canada is moving well in the right direction and the thing that remains a threat to us is the prospect of it be reintroduced via the USA.

    1. @QUEEN ROYALTY RULES if you listened to Dr Birx she said they moved from positive cases and are going back in time and adding probable cases. HENCE, playing with the numbers. Go back and listen to the press conference and you will hear with your own ears and not take anyone else’s word for it, including mine.

    2. @wei wang I don’t want Canada to take the place of America, I just don’t want innocent people to die

    3. @Mike I have worked all my life, since I was 15, I don’t worship money, as long as I have what I need I’m good. I sincerely wish you all the best, I sincerely care. I hate what all of you are going through, Please don’t give up hope, it will pass. Things will get better.

  6. Like always… To little, too late for someone who knew for a long time about the virus and did nothing 🤔
    Ooh… Wait, it will magically disappear 🦄

    1. I wonder if Trump’s riches,whatever they are,dissapeared,it would be a different speech,lol.

    2. @Eddie Sanchez they are against protesting, because protesters will not keep social distancing,and most won’t wear masks. If so,Corona virus will spread through them. Risk:high. Goal: low. Makes sense?.I’m not trying to insult You. Just having good exchange of opinions.

    3. @Robert Zajkowski very kind reply thank you. Yes but they aren’t wrong about civil liberties being infringed upon. They a crowd of give me liberty or give me death unwilling to submit. I find it hard to disagree with that when we can find ways of protecting ourselves.

    1. Where is his “wall”? Oh, right, it is exactly the same slatted steel barrier that was installed over 640 miles during Pres.Obama’s administration. Trump just renamed the steel barrier a “wall” but it is nothing like the “wall” he promised. Under Trump, 93 miles of steel slatted barrier has been installed and he wasted the billions Congress already gave him so he is stealing money from the military. Trump said the steel slatted barrier design was insufficient yet that is exactly what is being placed at the border.

    2. @Nick Hiscock That’s really quite funny. In truth, it’s too risky for anyone else in the world to visit America.

      Nobody in their right mind would want to go. Certainly not us.

    3. Stephy Fine. Just make sure you don’t travel to any other country. We don’t want your disease over here. Keep in your own infected country and share it amongst yourselves.

    4. @SWSimpson so you’re saying it was okay for Obama to build that many miles of walls but it’s not for Trump. Wow

    1. @Fromage Frizzbizz you are right, I’m having a look to see when, just doing research at the moment. Got some time on my hands. Trying to keep busy. Thanks mate! Stay safe, stay sane!

    2. @Fromage Frizzbizz Boomers see fascism as the ultimate evil. You do know the OK boomer meme came from alt-right 4chan right? It’s not a leftist meme.

    3. @Accelerationist From 4chan? Nope. Reddit channel in 2009, 6 years before 4chan.

      Fascism as the ultimate evil – you mean there are people, aside from neo-nazis, alt-right and 4chan that DON’T see it that way?

    4. @Fromage Frizzbizz The OK boomer meme didn’t come from Reddit you moron. Nothing comes from Reddit.

    1. Hurry and find it soon!! Don’t you watch the news they are still trying to cross the borders and I’m sure since your such a good little democrat you want more to come across and possibly bring more covid19. Why wouldn’t we close off the borders until things get better.

    2. Yeah sure you’re lookin. Just like all the people that were gonna leave if Trump won. None of them left! haha haha you’re too funny.

    3. sue You should close your borders. Americans are the most likely carriers (759090 +cases, inadequate testing etc. No- one wants you coming into our country 🇨🇦

    4. Llewellyn Kereiff don’t worry didn’t want to come to your country. The head of your country kisses up to what is going to destroy the western countries. Such crybabies!!

    1. @Joshua Hagen Why not? Far less disease, far better health system. But, even our our very own neocon Orange Furball (Ford) doesn’t want you diseased people.

    2. @Joshua Hagen Of course it is, and we have the quality of life statistics to prove it. Down there, except for the rich, no-one is ever farther from personal-bankruptcy than a single major illness. Down there, people get refused treatment even in ERs because the balance on their credit card isn’t high enough. We live longer, your child mortality statistics are the worst in the western world, the list of how your health system has failed you goes on a lot longer than that.

      It’s also better in virtually all the european countries and Japan and South Korea and …

    3. @Fromage Frizzbizz people do not get refused treatment in the ER. That right there proves you have zero idea what you’re talking about.

    1. @Gary Cherwonick your right about us citizens coming back and weird shorty debunk white people being immuned to CHY-NA virus but democrats like biden used to be about boarder protection or was is a fake smoke screen? I was blue union once until the bernies and aoc progressives took over.

    2. @Gary Cherwonick when george carlin passed larry king left cnn and john steward stopped doing the daily show the left got even more weird

    3. @Gary Cherwonick drag queen story for kids? Cmon man the left is teaching kids weird sexual stuff that adults do and promote poltical stuff at a young age. Why does my six year old son need to learn about eleanor roosevelt instead of the basics.

    4. Eddie Sanchez Nit sure where you’re going with this last comment. This thread started with a comment about delayed actions with the virus. Stay with the tour.

  7. The “invisible enemy” versus the visible one. We know who is “winning” unfortunately. Though with 44,000 dead and hundreds of thousands infected, maybe the enemy is one and the same….. DONALD TRUMP!

  8. He’s just throwing red meat for his supporters. And they love it. It’s their fault. Not mine…
