    A beautiful take down of trump.  
    You (and especially Eddie) need to grow up and stop the Trump bashing, you're embarrassing yourselves. The president has a 60% approval rating for his handling of the coronavirus crisis. He wisely decided to enact a travel ban for people arriving from China VERY EARLY ON (Jan. 31 to be exact). He was branded a racist and xenophobe by the media and fools like Bernie and Biden. ALL experts NOW agree that Trump's bold decision gave the U.S. a head start in containing the virus and has saved countless Americans from contracting the virus, many of whom would be dead now. Besides, Trump WILL be President for 4 more years and 8 months so you might as well make the best of it - it's your life...
    I cannot see how anyone can think Trump has done a good job handling this.

    1. Got rid of the pandemic task force.
    2. Didn't listen to the intelligence community about the possibility of a pandemic from this. 
    3. Downplayed this at the beginning (and is still downplaying it now), which is contributing to people not taking the stay at home orders seriously.

    A lot of Fox viewers and right wing radio listening mouth breathers in the US.  Remaining ignorant is a badge of honor among them.

    Wrong. Limited travel to and from China while everyone called him a racist for doing so. Had he not made that move, this virus would be much, much worse. Liberals care more about hurt feelings than they do about people's lives.
    Yeah, things are going so great here with the virus. The virus is here and it's spreading like crazy. Tell me how successful he has been again. What a joke. 
    Why don't you just say "I got nothin'?" LoL. Weak.
    I gave you 3 things and you ignored them. Weak

    The US has handle this crisis terribly, I do not think a lot of people realise what is coming their way. Trump has been talking about having everything opened back up for Easter? If that is done he will cause tens of thousands or deaths, if not more!
    I think some things have been done poorly, I won’t deny that. But Darth is right with the travel ban. When he did it everyone called him racist.
    And I never heard him say reopen the country by Easter. I heard him say many times to begin to reopen parts of the country. There’s a big difference between the 2.

    You are very confused, we were as illed prepared as possible given the head start we could have had.  It was coming here with or without travel ban, the key was to be prepared for when it arrived and Trump was busy crying Hoax and worrying solely how it would effect him.  There are examples of other nations who have had much better success dealing with the virus, they simply got their ducks in a row before it got there.  There is no reason we should be asking, oh wow how did South Korea get their arms around this so much more easily than the United States of America.  But i guess that's not the story on fox "news" (entertainment)....

    I love that out of this whole crisis and literally hundreds of decisions a real leader would and should be making the only positive thing people can point to is this travel ban.  It’s a fantastic example of a broken clock being right twice a day.

    And I love people still claim he closed it because they “look different” and that it had nothing to do with the virus.
    I swear, he could personally fund and find a cure tomorrow and people will hate him for that too.
    Ive said many times I have a lot of complaints about him, but some of the comments he gets are ridiculous.

    I might be a little biased, but my cousin and his entire family of five are battling the virus right now, I don't think the our current federal government has done much of a job on this. Doesn't help that certain news organizations didn't take this seriously. At least according to our president, it's almost April and he said it would be gone by then, because he had a feeling. Ugh. 

    Anyways, I hadn't really listened to this song too much, but saw this post and listened a couple times this morning. Brilliant song.

    Why do we need Trump to come up with a cure?  He told us all that there would be 15 cases and then it would be gone.  

    LOL.  Great leadership skills.  😂

    Pearl Jam and the NBA showed more leadership than Trump by postponing on their own.

    Seven O’Clock is my favorite from the album.

    It's okay if on the first listen, a song doesn't jump out to you. Give it time. 
    I'm very grateful that Pearl Jam is still together and releasing new music!
    Stay safe.

    I think a cure would be good. But you’re entitled to your opinion.

    Trump told us we don’t need a cure, remember...

    TBH I think the theme is a much more general one. Trump may be part of all that’s wrong with the world today but I feel like the song isn’t „just“ about him
