Well that's wrap for Trump's reelection prospects.

If this shyt gets into NYC, specifically the subway system, it's a wrap

I'm honestly shocked that we haven't had any cases yet. But sadly it's inevitable

Reporter on MSNBC today said she was in Hong Kong then in Japan and then flew to London and nobody checked her at the airport

She was reporting from Milan today and said she will be going back to London with nobody even tracking her or checking her temperature.

I'm bout to be on a flight in a minute. I'm a little worried.

Just curious, it's obviously impossible to tell at this point, but what affect do you guys think this would play on the presidential elections coming up

Yeah if it shows up and explodes in latin america, then yeah... he will be able to do whatever he wants with immigration/travel

It's gonna hit the USA before it hits Latin America.

It's gonna hit the USA before it hits Latin America.



I feel like I'm screwed. We have to travel for work too much and interact with way too many people too. I already didn't want to do a conference in Indonesia in June but now I might even try to use that excuse to finally get my wife to cancel the trip. One way or another though I just have the feeling that me, my wife, or one of our daughters is gonna be coming down with this shyt.

Depends on how and who's leveraging it.

If non-stop news cycles and mentions of how Trump has underfunded the CDC and f*cked off the nations top health positions, along with the stock market, its going to get pretty bad for his only talking point.

Democratic candidates should be using a lot of anecdotal stories floating around to drive home the fact that the ACA needs expanding and/or this is one of the myriad of reasons why M4A is important.

I'm pretty sure it's already spreading in the continental US but we're not testing at all so we won't know until it gets bad like Wuhan.

Lmao y’all overreacting like a MF. I mean the economic effects I can understand but otherwise this is literally just another kind of flu that will overwhelmingly kill really old ppl with already compromised immune systems.

people are bugging acting like an ebola outbreak or some shyt

I'm going to start taking the train more than ever before and I was in one of the Asian hoods yesterday.

 

[DonKnock]

Sounds like it's gonna spread. I'm sure Trump and Republican leadership will be on top of this.

well its absolutely tanking the stock market which is is main talking point. shyt has a while to bounce back though

trump's never really had to lead the country, he inherited a healed economy and most of his problems were ones he created himself. the way he reacts to this could tank him with reasonable adults

You need one of those bubble suits. Just don't touch anything or anyone and you should be fine.

Don't breath in either if you can help it.

You got this!
