That's the problem with the people that throw around the word racist at everything so as to try to score political points or make it stick. It's a despicable thing to do.

RACIST has jumped the shark. I used to actually take the term seriously, now it's a complete farce.

With that in mind, the guy crying racist got completely obliterated when everyone started pointing out how the major media outlets have all been calling it the Wuhan virus for months.

But it *is* China's fault. And everyone knows that, except for MSDNC hosts and LeBron James.

Let's just call it the Kung Flu.

But the NYT calling it the "Trump virus" is top-notch reporting.

Website still says address began 30 minutes ago. I guess it is a typical serious address with no video and no audio. Okay it is live now.

11 people now on a tiny stage but no Pence or Trump yet.

Trump just said we shut US border and never did that before.

Other then that, Trumps comments were fine. Although I don't know if a Payroll Tax roll back really is associated.

Pence said risk of catching virus is LOW and serious consequence of that infection is LOW.

I would say it depends upon your age. If you are over 70 this is a very questionable statement.

The bad news about the Grand Princess is the crew. They are going to be stuck on their virus infected vessel and continue to spread the virus to each other. I would have preferred that these crew members be treated like people and rescued off the vessel too. Why do people from the UK and Canada get flown home, but people from Philippines get stuck on the ship?

You just made that up. If that had happened Trump would be ranting about it.

Why don't you just start a thread about all the things the liberal hysterics DON'T call "racist"?

The thread would be a lot shorter.

Yeah, he's talking now. That Gaetz is now in quarantine probably has him freaking out now.

You have it backwards. I was using the numbers that incorporate all data. The other person was wanting to only use numbers that met her standards.
