    I have some faint hope that if the totally craven disinformation campaign - not just wrt this, but in general - by Trump and the GOP keeps getting exposed, that some people might pay attention and come to their senses.

    I am not holding my breath.

    Well it certainly should show that the "government always bad" worldview is wrong. The private sector simply can't deal with a crisis like this and that's a start.

    They should. This highlights their foolishness. They bought in on what Trump and handful of Nunes clones said at the beginning and now that they've had to turn a 180, the suckers that thumbed their nose at science and medicine ended up being made to look foolish because of their faith in Trump and his sycophants.

    Libs were discounting the virus? I don't think so.

    Conservatives pre-realization: Ah this is nothing to worry about, we have a great relationship with China. It's the Libs who are the problem

    Post realization (Oh F moment): Crap this is a bad situation, it's all China's fault!!!!! We aren't responsible - who could see this coming!!!

    This explains why I'm seeing so much "get angry at China" posts on social media the last few days.

    That's clearly insider trading and needs to be investigated by the SEC

    Good luck. My mom (66) told me earlier in the week that Trump couldn't be held responsible for decisions people under him made but now he's aware of them and fixing them. I didn't even respond, just changed the subject.

    Yeah, she has a point. The leader is never responsible... That is especially true when the words came from the leader's mouth.

    ohhhhh k.

    I didn’t know it was actually liberals who don’t believe in science. Damn Trumpers and their “global warming”.... its 40 degrees today in March. Guess it’s just a hoax put out there by the Chinese.

    I know you're trolling now like others here...you have no intention on real and honest conversation. This is an AMERICAN issue not a Dem or Repub problem alone.

    As said before, everyone called it the Wuhan virus, but with attacks on Asians in America (and elsewhere), it's wiser not to call it by place of origin and avoid long term stigmatizing.

    Changing the name won't stop people from getting pissed off at China, it's government, its people, or their "weird and exotic" eating habits.

    Saying it on purpose though...makes you wonder why.
