I think Trump is doing a perfect job. The last thing he should do is say anything to create a panic. I’m simply saying that it’s prudent to take some precautions in case this ends up hitting us hard. Buy some extra canned goods and make sure your prescriptions are filled. Common sense. Hope for the best, but plan for the worst.
