Who cares what Seth Meyers thinks about the President or the crisis in general?? And the response to this crisis has been exemplary, not bad. Remember, China dropped the ball (on purpose), not the U.S. .... Trump's done a great job, and I challenge any critic to just step in his shoes and try making the same decisions he's having to make. I think we'd all agree that this pandemic be over with and quickly forgotten.

If you believe this I have some Ocean front property in Kansas for sale at really cheap prices.
To properly manage a problem you first have to admit you have one. Almost anyone you can imagine could/would have done better.
So... Trump tweeted this morning that it’s up to him, not governors, if states reopen business. Grumpy Trumpy Wumpers does NOT like hearing he isn’t the boss baby of everything! So since he’s the head of the party, I guess the GOP platform is now... anti-states rights? Interesting. Well, Trumps word is gospel so I’m eager to hear how Fox News argues that a sprawling Federal government with total control is what God intended.
So was he not recommending mitigation at that point? Why did he institute the ban regarding China at the end of January and why did he do the European flight ban early in March. He did these types of mitigation before many other countries.
Why is the death rate in Italy 329 per million, in Spain 374 per million, France 220 per million, Belgium 336 per million, United Kingdom 167 per million, Switzerland 130 per million, Sweden 92 per million and the US 67 per million? Did Trump not react quickly enough in those countries to?
Why is Japan's rate only 1 per million?
What early mitigation steps did they take? I know they closed schools early but what else?
It's a legitimate response. The libster criticizes Trump for not serving, while he was fine with Obama not serving. And I believe that Clinton was even worse - not only didn't he serve, but he was on foreign soil condemning America's military.
Can we spell.....HYPOCRISY?
Two points:
(1) Trump is president now.
(2) I didn't vote for either Clinton or Obama so I have no reason to either attack or defend their military records.
At the time the task force was established, January 30th, President Trump signed a presidential proclamation, using his authority pursuant to Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, temporarily suspending the entry into the United States of foreign nationals.
Just for comparison purposes, South Korea already had a rapid detection test ready by January 24th. So... yeah. We responded, but next time it needs to be faster.
Thinking Trump botched the response is a matter of subjectivity and bias. If you have a post on these fora that parrot the failed intel operations I mentioned, then as far as I am concerned, you have zero credibility to me.
1. This thread isn't specifically about the failed intel operations you mentioned so 'thinking Rump botched this' isn't limited to that specifically.
2. Things that Trump could have done but didn't do are a matter of fact, but you're right, what constitutes 'botched' is a matter of opinion.
3. I don't care if I have any credibility with you.

Nope.
When I make a mistake, I admit it.
As an example, within the last 24 hours or so I thought I remembered one word from another member's post, and when I went back and looked at it, that word wasn't there, but two other words were in 'that spot' which made the post have a different meaning than I remembered. After noticing that I immediately did an ETA (edit to add) pointing out that I hadn't remembered that post correctly.
I am a deplorable. And Fauci has also said that Trump acted as fast as possible with the information he had. People who say otherwise are just political hacks trying to damage what amounts to a wartime presidency. And it's shameful.
So I don't know who you think "most people" are, but I think you are sadly mistaken.
