   As a huge Trump supporter, I'll say that he was weak on his corona virus   
   response. But to his credit, he's still making good on his campaign promises.   
   That's what sets him apart from the last few presidents in office. And I   
   can't imagine Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden doing any better than Trump's weak   
   response.   
      
   I can't help but to suspect that Joe Biden wants to cash in on China's scheme   
   to sell us medical supplies amid the outbreak.

   Unfortunately, I think either Trump or whoever calls these shots, has screwed   
   that up too. As far as I know, international travel is still open and   
   allowed, except for a few specific countries like China, UK, and Brazil. We   
   obviously can't stop illegal international travel, but my buddies aren't   
   stopping legal international travel either, despite having a good reason to   
   do so.   
      
   So we've still got people coming from many parts of the world coming to NY to   
   snap photos of the statue of liberty, and we've got stubborn Americans who   
   think they're immune to the virus, taking trips to Cancun, or wherever else   
   they wanna go.   
      
   Does the president have the power to shut it all down? Or would that   
   necessitate a house vote?
