The sky is falling! The sky is falling!

The extreme right; always the drama queens. It's either "It's a hoax!", or "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!"

No wonder people laugh at them.

It's a serious problem, it's now killing Americans. More of us will die because the Trump administration disarmed our public health agencies, and botched their initial response. We're not all going to die, most of us aren't going to die, and likely less than a thousand of us will die. But more of us will die than would have died had the administration handled the outbreak properly.

We all get it; to Trump, a few dozen or even a few thousand Americans dead isn't a concern, so long as it doesn't hurt the stock market and hurt his election chances. This is why there's a gag order on our public health people, who have to clear everything through a political commissar before they can release it to the American public.

I never mentioned Trump. Why is everything about Trump?

He botched the response, and he's the one who cut funding for the agencies that are supposed to be protecting us.

I believe that the media is blowing this way out of proportion.

Depends on whether or not someone in your family dies, I suppose.

And now, the left suddenly thinks border control is a good thing. Y'all really need to make up your minds.

That's the funny part; it's not about border control. It's about identifying the virus, not people. Notice Trump's first move was reflexively to shut down borders. Notice, it didn't work. Guess why.

Yep. Not about borders. Stuff like his people deciding to evacuate U.S. citizens from China with sick and well people on the same flight. Stuff like failing to provide even the basic protective gear to federal workers working with those people. Stuff like that.

During the bubonic plague in Europe, rulers closed borders. Didn't work. Never does. But it's the right-wing statist go-to. Ideologically attractive, but practically worthless.

You're the one getting hysterical

See above. Q.E.D

Could you give me God's phone number? That way I could know as much as you about what He thinks.

PS I didn't vote for Obama either time he ran.

It's WONDERFUL that you ask for GOD's phone number, because it may be the FIRST opportunity for you to hear from HIM.

MAYBE, Trump and Netanyahu are IMPORTANT because they're the "Two Witnesses" spoken of in the Book of Revelation, -- which I STRONGLY SUSPECT.

Trump seems to be the witness mentioned in Exodus 20:16.

How are you supposed to stop the virus if you let people in carrying the virus?

Learn about it here:
What is the difference between isolation and quarantine?

Once Trump dropped the ball, it was too late to shut down borders. And even if it could work, it would effectively wreck the economy. So the key is to test potentially affected people, isolate those infected, where there's been contact, quarantine people until they can be tested and cleared.

All a minimally competent President has to do in a situation like this is defer to the experts. Instead, we get....

Trump floats his own coronavirus hunches on 'Hannity'

Trump’s coronavirus musings put scientists on edge

"President Donald Trump is using his metaphorical black Sharpie to draw his own mental map of the spiraling coronavirus crisis — vastly complicating the work of public health officials scrambling to contain the spread of the deadly disease.

In the latest example alarming the scientific community, the president on Fox News forcefully contradicted the World Health Organization, which earlier in the week estimated the global mortality rate for the coronavirus at 3.4 percent."

Lol, so many Monday morning quarterbacks, and keyboard warriors, all telling us what they would have done if they were president.

It's not exactly going out on a limb to say that the President shouldn't be contradicting medical experts in the midst of a viral outbreak.

Netanyahu and Trump get killed for witnessing for Jesus? Do the people of Israel know Netanyahu is a Christian? I wonder when he will and Trump will dress in sackcloth and start witnessing?

Prophecy is not my wheelhouse. Color me doubtful.

Not "doubtful". To be "doubtful" you need an informational basis, and you don't have any It's like being neither happy or sad. -- You're simply uniformed and should have no opinion.

There's a saying: "ignorance can be cured, but stupidity is forever". So let's cure your "ignorance", because we're not called to be "stupid".

Who said "Jesus". There are basic GOD TRUTHS whether a Jew or a Christian. And who said "sackcloth"? Are you adding to the Scriptures?

Rev. 22:18 I warn every one who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if any one adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, 19 and if any one takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.

Perhaps Prophetic Scripture is not your "wheelhouse" either, -- but it can be, unless you prefer more than ignorance.

So now we have Saint Bibi along with Saint Donald.

I didn't add "sackcloth." Why do you say such things about me when you reveal how little you know yourself? Are you on some kind of medication that's affects your mind?

Revelation 11:2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.


If Saint Bibi and Saint Donald are the two witnesses, somebody better get work started on a temple soon. You seem to think maybe we're already in the middle of the tribulation.
