realDonaldTrump GovRonDeSantis Trump said DeSantis screening of inbound international travelers is effective. RON proposed TAKING TEMPERATURES which is NOT an effective measure since infected people do not display symptoms initially.

Trump is always 'looking at' everything while doing little or nothing.

Eugene_Scott Wait until countries start banning travel from the United States because we’re so stupid

Lol. Why? The fox is already in the hen house.

BIG STORY !!! 🇺🇸

Why don't Trump send bolsonaro 20 Hydroxychloroquine trucks just to start? That could help avoid some travel ban...

🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

That’s fine. But please remember the previous 2 so-called travel bans (China in Jan and EU in Feb/Mar) weren’t enforced as such. They were as leaky as a sieve. If you’re going to do it, then DO IT! Don’t make an announcement to score political points

Are we really even going anywhere here in America ? Let alone traveling to Brazil ?

At last the motherfucker did something I would as well

The US already has so much, what's the use of the travel ban

Travel bans, at this point, are not part of the solution. The virus is already raging in US, no need for a travel ban.
