Bloomberg is LINK ONLY...

This administrative action is about the election because Trump deems it necessary to do so as this flu virus runs through its phases. The added benefit is that I don’t think for a hot second that it will “shut up the democrats”, but it may slow a tiny bit and for a very brief period their politicization of this latest flu virus ... at least for an hour or two after the declaration is made.

“What makes you think he didn’t?”

Big Media said Trump said it was a hoax, and made it sound good, and it must not have seemed DIRECTLY related to politics at the time.

[goodnesswins]

Yes...what you said.

The epicenter of the outbreak is in Europe and has no crested yet. We are going to see the epicenter move here.

I wish people would take this seriously. Preparing is not panic. Taking steps to avert a disaster is good.

[GreenHornet]

he is declaring an emergency to shut up the democrats who will otherwise say he is doing nothing or not enough.

He could announce that a cure has been found, and the virus will be eradicated within the next three days, and that still wouldn't shut them up.

Great time to go to the mall! No one will be there so the shopping will be pleasant.

[SaveFerris]

LOL

[Saruthe]

Its real alright. Its a real panic among the sheeple. The virus will be what it is. The reaction will be the problem. In 6 months we will forget all about it and it will be the Russians or globull climate change.

[DouglasKC]

You laugh - but that’s coming

It sure is. It's happened everywhere else. It will happen here.

[goodnesswins]

Soon there will be no malls...if the Dems continue barking their doom

[ifinnegan]

It does not show it’s not MSM hype.

It shows it’s a serious issue to be addressed and invoking Stafford Act is necessary legally to allocate funding.

MSM hype is exactly the same as global warming and Trump is evil/incompetent hype.

Leopard doesn’t change its spots.

Never let a crisis go to waste.

[treetopsandroofs]

I’ve learned not to go to the mall after dark on GOOD days.

[Solson]

Trump’s actions have been good. His comments though, undermined the seriousness of this. If you’re looking for a sycophant, look elsewhere.

[mewzilla]

Wonder if this has anything to do with China’s recent threat...

[Mom MD]

AMEN. the virus we will survive. The reaction may prove fatal

[ifinnegan]

Yeah.

The jet setters and people who meet a lot of jet setting officials are more likely to come in contact with it.

It’s not a populist virus, at least not here in the U.S.

[DarthVader]

Martial law time!

[Solson]

Too many non-thinking harpies that simply follow whatever they are told by their favorite talk show. It's amazing to me how many people talk about being not a sheep but act amazingly like them.

Independent research shows this is a big deal. the "it's just the flu bro" crowd is annoying.

[ncalburt]

wait for Markets close

[circlecity]

He had no option but to declare a national emergency with all the panic mongering from the left and the Never-Trump crowd.
