January 20th: First Covid case in the US.
January 22nd: "We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine." - Donald J Trump.
January 30th: "We only have five people. Hopefully, everything's going to be great. They have somewhat of a problem, but hopefully, it's all going to be great. But we're working with China, just so you know, and other countries very, very closely. So it doesn't get out of hand." - Donald J Trump
January 31st: Donnie implements travel restrictions on China; the restrictions don't actually close the border to China and nearly 40 000 folk have travelled to the US from China since the 'ban'.
February 1st: Donnie plays Golf.
February 2nd: "We pretty much shut it down coming in from China." - Donald J Trump
February 10th: Donnie has a rally in New Hampshire, he says: "Looks like by April, you know, in theory, when it gets a little warmer, it miraculously goes away. I hope that's true. But we're doing great in our country. China, I spoke with President Xi, and they're working very, very hard. And I think it's going to all work out fine."
February 13th: "In our country, we only have, basically, 12 cases, and most of those people are recovering and some cases fully recovered. So it's actually less." - Donald J Trump
February 15th: Donnie plays Golf.
February 19th: Donnie has a rally in Arizona.
February 20th: Donnie has a rally in Colorado.
February 21st: Donnie has a rally in Nevada.
February 24th: Nancy, in Chinatown (San Francisco not China), tries to ease fears - something y'all have vigorously defended Donnie for.
... Also February 24th: "The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries. CDC & World Health have been working hard and very smart. Stock Market starting to look very good to me!" - Donald J Trump
February 26th: "When you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that's a pretty good job we've done." - Donald J Trump
February 28th: Donnie has a rally in Charleston. He calls Covid the Dems "new hoax".
March 5th: "It's going to all work out. Everybody has to be calm. It's all going to work out." - Donald J Trump
March 7th: Donnie plays Golf.
March 8th: Donnie plays Golf.
March 10th: "And we're prepared, and we're doing a great job with it. And it will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away." - Donald J Trump
March 11th: "The vast majority of Americans, the risk is very, very low." - Donald J Trump
March 16th: "My administration is recommending that all Americans, including the young and healthy, work to engage in schooling from home when possible. Avoid gathering in groups of more than 10 people. Avoid discretionary travel. And avoid eating and drinking at bars, restaurants and public food courts. If everyone makes this change or these critical changes and sacrifices now, we will rally together as one nation and we will defeat the virus. And we're going to have a big celebration all together. With several weeks of focused action, we can turn the corner and turn it quickly."
March 17th: "This is a pandemic. I felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic." - Donald J Trump
Today: US cases, 770 564. US deaths, 41 114
Today: San Francisco cases, 1 157. San Francisco deaths, 20

meanwhile here's Joe Biden in January:
FLASHBACK by Joe Biden: Trump is worst possible leader to deal with coronavirus outbreak
Donald Trump has blithely tweeted that 'it will all work out well.' Yet the steps he's taken as president have only weakened our capacity to respond.
eu.usatoday.com
The outbreak of a new coronavirus, which has already infected more than 2,700 people and killed over 80 in China, will get worse before it gets better. Cases have been confirmed in a dozen countries, with at least five in the United States. There will likely be more.

Joe isn't my first, second, third or fourth choice as nominee but if I was a voting American, I'd crawl over broken glass to vote for him, and every other downballot blue candidate, in November.

Last time I checked, Trump's government hasn't made walking your dog illegal, or taking a jog illegal, or even the worst crime of all: selling cooked food.

That pig is still better than the windvane that South Africa has for a president.

Oh right, it must be how nicely the Ramamessiah reads a speech. Just ignore the fact that his government has murdered people in their homes, has banned the sale of just about every consumer good possible, has prevented people from staying healthy by exercising, and oh wait, the small part of forcing millions poor people to starve to death in 3x3m shacks.
But really ORANGEMANBAD because he said some nasty things about China.
