I am appalled at the main untruth of Richard Giannamore’s letter “Coronavirus not under control” (Aug. 15, TribLIVE). He stated that President Trump “waited almost one month to take action.” According to the internet and other sources, the first known case of covid-19 was on Jan. 21. The president restricted travel from China on Jan. 31 — hardly “almost a month.”
The left complained that Trump was not listening to the experts, but when he did, complaints seemed to abound about that. The left cried and called the president xenophobic, and when they think we forgot, they said he waited too long. Methinks hypocrisy is the name of that game.
As for the president being a liar … just remember the words of another liar: If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor; if you like your insurance plan, you can keep your plan; and my favorite, your health care premium will drop by $2,500 a year. I am still waiting for mine to drop. How about you?
