The Proper Context for Blame
by Erick EricksonOn Monday, March 16, 2020, President Trump took to the podium in the White House press room and began to make the case to the American people that the underlying operations of the country must change to stop the growth of the Wuhan coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, in the United States.
The President wants Americans to end discretionary travel; shelter in place for fifteen days; limit gatherings to no more than ten people; avoid eating at restaurants and bars; and avoid gyms and other recreational spots if the virus is spreading in the community.
For several weeks, Democrats and the media blasted the President. At the end of January, the President imposed a travel ban on China. The very media now blasting the President for not taking the matter seriously attacked the President then. According to experts, the President’s ban on travel with China would make fighting the virus more difficult. In hindsight, the experts now agree it was the right decision.
