[quote=svelte][quote=Myriad]Pretty sure Trump’s plan is to ignore it. If it becomes a problem, deny it and complain about the media. That way, it will just spread and no containment is needed.

It’s a pretty interesting situation when you stop and think about it. Trump and his sheep have disliked the global society concept and have thrown up roadblocks to globalization under the guise of protecting jobs…and then this pops up almost as a proof point that globalization is bad.
Yet, this may be the very thing that dooms his re-election. If the stock market keeps tanking, if production lines stay closed, if thousands of people die, people may re-think whether his cuts to the CDC and other programs were such a wise thing and whether four years of Trump have left them better than before.
Still nine months until the election…if this thing really takes off it really changes the political landscape…
This may end up being a very unique, interesting year.[/quote]
I think the opposite is more likely. The coronavirus doesn’t affect the U.S. any more than SARS did. Everything turns out fine, no thanks to trump. Trump takes credit for everything turning out fine. Trump wins.
