Can you pls. pull up the Schumer quote as I have not seen it?

Every person can have a different idea if a policy is good or not. I'm agnostic on whether it was or not. That is why I said earlier damn if you do or damn if you don't and if you think it was good - good for you. Overall I think he has done a terrible job (lying, blaming others, down playing it, not wanting to bring the Americans back bc he didn't want the #s to go up, his lack of empathy, his horrible speech, refusing to take any responsibility, etc). Yesterday he seemed to be doing a better job by finally realizing this isn't going away. He won't get a 10 from me regardless of how he ranks himself.

He should just let Fauci talk.

Do you agree you seem to want people to praise Trump for some reason?
"It's never been understood to mean each and every foreigner "

I already said I agree with that. How many foreigners does one have to go to bat for, before you'd decide he's not a xenophobe?

"I'm agnostic on whether it was or not."

Fine. But for the 4th or 5th time, is it reasonable to assume the policy was rooted in bigotry?

Schumers line was in the thread I started the thread got removed...
"travel ban to and from China by the current administration is just an excuse to further his ongoing war against immigrants. "
"

No possible justifiable medical reason, just an excuse to hurt immigrants. No possible benefit for Americans, nope.

What gets me is the same people who attacked him for the travel restrictions, are now saying he didn't do enough. And no one can criticize what Biden or Schumer said.
