Rather than move on to the corona virus later, the true meaning of this daily media information, Trump gave a long speech of anger against the media and Democrats. Joe Biden (77), the Democratic presidential candidate, has been accused of double standards by Trump. “When I issued entry regulations against China in early January, Biden insulted me as a racist,” said Trump, who often highlights his first actions against China as evidence of his supposedly good crown policy.
The fact is: Biden described the President of the United States as a “racist” at a campaign event the same day, but not in connection with his China policy. Both politicians exaggerate their respective arguments. Trump said he was “extremely early” in his dealings with China. Biden said in an interview in early April that Trump was “very slow” with the entry ban against the Chinese. The fact is that, in a global comparison, the United States did not act early or late on the so-called “China stop”, but at the same time as most other countries.
Finally, Trump’s angry speech culminated when he described a journalist as “shame.” “You know you are wrong,” said the President of the United States.
Then, the president lowered the light in the room and showed the representatives of the media to present a propaganda film of his government. “That is part of their campaign event, but certainly not at an official Corona press conference,” several journalists were outraged on Twitter. Larger American television stations, including CNN and MSNBC, demonstratively changed the line and returned to the studio.
When Donald Trump switched to the corona virus, about an hour had passed. The President of the United States said it was very important to reopen the country “as soon as possible.” Like Saturday, he promised he would listen to the “experts.” Trump also added that, as president, he has absolute power to make decisions. “If you are president of the United States, you have general power,” he said. However, the fact remains that the power of an American president is constitutionally limited by separation of powers and federalism.
Trump also announced that the freeze on entry to the US USA For foreigners in Europe it will remain for the moment. Italy and Spain are still not doing well in the Corona crisis, and France has just extended measures to contain the virus, Trump said. There is currently a “very strong” entry ban and it will remain in place until countries are better off. As soon as this was the case, the President of the United States made it clear that the entry stop must end “very quickly.” “But we want to make sure everything is fine.” In announcing the entry stop in mid-March, Trump had said the regulation was limited to 30 days. Two weeks ago, he announced that the move should last longer. Swiss citizens will not be able to enter the United States until further notice.
