First of all, take the president into context (which you will never do). He never said the virus was a hoax. He said the politics the dems were playing were a hoax, and they are. The virus didnt start here, and no one, no country took this as seriousely as trump did. He took extreme heat from it, again with dems playing politics - hes racist! You cant stop the chinese from entering the country! Racist! This is the Trump virus.If the hype is all a hoax, why is the Trump administration spending so much time and money on press conferences and round tables to address the issue?
$7,500,000,000 being allocated... sounds like a hoax.
Trump requested 2.5b (based on requests and conversations with the best infectious disease experts and doctors), dems flipped out, demanded 9b. Just throw money at the problem (ie. Let our cronies get rich) and that will solve the issue. Remember ebola? Obama threw money at that problem, assigned a tzar, and guess what? It's still alive and well.
