Flip-Flop: Biden Now Backs Trump Travel Ban After Calling it 'Xenophobic'
Townhall ^ | 4/03/20 | Reagan McCarthy

Posted on 04/04/2020 8:08:39 AM PDT by Libloather

Former Vice President Joe Biden reversed course, again, Friday afternoon. The presumptive Democratic nominee to face President Trump in November now says that he supports the president’s travel ban to and from China.

This is a 180-degree spin from the former vice president. Just two months ago, Biden called a ban on travel to and from China, where the virus originated, was "xenophobic" and "racist:"

"The national emergency and worldwide alerts. The American people need to have a president who they can trust what he says about it. That he is going to act rationally about it. In moments like this, this is where the credibility of a president is most needed, as he explains what we should and should not do. This is no time for Donald Trump's record of hysterical xenophobia and fear mongering to lead the way instead of science,” per CNN.

Medical experts have affirmed that President Trump’s travel ban helped contain and fight the COVID-19 epidemic. The president’s approval ratings are at record highs for his first term, and polling shows that the American people trust President Trump to get the nation through this crisis.

Before it’s over Biden will say he was for building the wall all along.

Just another example of Democrat politician’s talking out of their hineys.

Biden’s press secretary Winston Smith challenges you to find any evidence that Biden ever opposed the travel ban.

Because, Winston, if you do, there's always room 101. "Everyone knows what's in Room 101."

I’m waiting to hear a mea culpa from Gov Kumo for not buying the extra 15,000 ventilators that his administration recommended back in 2015. I know, I know, when pigs fly.

Not a flip-flop, just some more of Joe’s continuing gush of word salad. The sentences seem to have some structure, but manage to be devoid of any consistent meaning, often at great contradiction with other earlier utterances.

Joe is not sleepy at all, he is just permanently “Out To Lunch”.

He was against it before he was for it. Subject to change as circumstances require.

The Leftists are scrambling to rewrite recent history. They have their work cut out for them. Spin doctors are working overtime. A lot of democrat voters are at a loss, waiting for new talking points that don’t sound completely asinine.

Room 101 at my Jr.HS in the early 70’s was where all of the developmentally disabled were placed and taught.

Asking someone if their home room ws 101 was the annual joke at the start of each new school year.

With this travel ban, I don’t know where to spend my vacation; kitchen or living room. Need ideas.
