The ONLY thing you heard out of the Democrats at that time was impeachment. Now they are blaming the president. Where were they? Trying to impeach a president and calling travel bans (that probably saved many lives) racist.
On January 29, 2020 Joe Biden in a speech in Iowa said that Trump's idea of restricting travel from China was "Xenophobic". On March 9, 2020 Bernie Sanders said he would NOT, I repeat he said he would NOT shut down travel from China. In fact Bernie said "Isn't it funny that this President's first reaction is to close the borders." February 24, 2020 Nancy Pelosi says from San Francisco's China Town to come visit, it is safe and "there are no Coronavirus concerns". Then SF became one of the epicenters of the disease. March 20, MSNBC's Rachel Maddow (as well as NY Times) bash Trump for talking about Hydroxy Cloroquin calling it a "fairy tale" and giving people false hope. Now it is being sought after to fight the disease and is being tested as helping patients recover faster. March 30, 2020 Morning Joe anchors say "everyone saw this coming in early January...yet January 24 2020, Joe Scarborough and wife Minka had a segment where they said "no Americans need to be concerned about COVID-19 and should be more concerned about the common flu. Everything I have quoted are all true and easily verified. It seems to me that the Liberal leaders and media have not been accurate about ANYTHING about COVID-19 and some how Trump has been way ahead of them. Trump nailed this one and the press does everything to blame him? Do not let the media rewrite facts. Liberals and the media on January 28th were talking about the final vote of the impeachment hearing while Trump was sounding the alarm. They all said he was trying to distract us....well guess what, he was right this time. Facts Matter
