Taiwan also had a very strict quarantine of people who tested positive, they tracked you with a phone, and if you left your house, the police came for you.

Should we have done that here? What would democrats and the media have said, back in December, if Trump proposed going that far? Don't you get it? Trump didn't do much back then, but the one thing he did, he was attacked for doing, because the democrats and the media said the virus wasn't serious enough.

So if democrats went berserk over Trumps restricting travel from Chinese nationals, you want us to believe they'd go along if Trump implemented the near-martial law that Taiwan implemented with their sick?

It makes no sense to me that Taiwan did as well as they did, and the whole world needs to know why, to see what we can learn. But it's preposterous for you to say that the country would have allowed Trump to do in December, what Taiwan did.

We will never know. Trump didn't try any of the above, and downplayed this for the first two months. Then yesterday he would do nothing different in his response.

Lots to learn at both the state and federal level on this one, we are lucky that this wasn't the 2-3% mortality otherwise we would have been #^&#^&#^&#^&ed.
