Except, shocker, that is also not true. You should try actually looking up the facts, rather than just regurgitating OAN/Newsmax/Fox propaganda.
Here are the actual facts:
- Trump’s advisers were pressing him to ban travel for China for at least two weeks before he finally acted.
- 38 other countries had restricted travel from China by the time the US did.
- Trump’s travel “ban” didn’t ban travel from China at all. 430,000 people had already traveled from China to the US by the one Trump acted and another 40,000 people traveled directly to from a China to the US in the weeks that followed.
- Biden never opposed Trump’s travel ban. He said he supported such bans if recommended by public health experts but that the ban would not be enough to stop the virus from spreading in the US (which he was, clearly, right about)
- Biden did not ball the the “ban” “xenophobic.” He called Trump’s overall handling of the virus “”xenophobic,” specifically Trump calling it “the China virus.”
Those are the actual facts, and I’ve provided copious legitimate sources to back them up below.
The narrative you are pushing is just another of Trump’s many lies that you, and so many others, swallow hook, line, and sinker with nary a question about it’s veracity.
I would hope that you’d review the resources below and educate yourself. I doubt very much that you will, but the choice to be willfully ignorant is yours to make.
