The objective of building wall might not be to prevent Mr. Trump watching the poverty stricken views of Modi's own Gujarat. Every sight on earth is readily available at their finger tip for US president and his security. Then why spending such a huge sum to build a wall?

No Japanese ship. US ship!

take care

Keep them at Area 51

What took sooo long for the US government to rescue American ctizens in peril over seas? Send a plane for American citizens.

'Americans who have already tested positive for coronavirus, as well as those showing symptoms of the virus, will not be able to board the aircraft, and will continue to receive treatment in Japan.'

Thank you Trump for keeping America safe !

Makes ya wonder if China created this virus to help with their overpopulation problems. They’ve been tossing the 2nd born child off of cliffs since the early 1980’s. Scary!CoronaVirusFacts coronavirus WokeAF SundayFunday ATTSlamDunk BlackLivesMatter

Oh so pathetic

I am praying for them all.

US must pay much attention. Those who died of flue may not really by flue.

US must take all the responsibility. The nationality of the ship is UK, and operated by US. Japan has no first responsibility.

Anyone else in the mood for a cruise? 😷

No, just keep them on there until all this blows over.

🔺

How we need to treat all cruise ships...

Are the bringing these people back to the US🤔

Where’s the wall.

Do the planet a favor and sink it

virus incoming

By know they all have it. A quarantine should be 40 days, not two weeks.

Must be an election stunt

Amazing...I bet if they were illegal aliens certain people would be clamoring for them to be rescued. If they are American...leave them in the cages.

No!!!! Keep them there!!!!

Hurry up! Don't trust Japanese government's corresponds and medical technology in Japan. Take all Americans on board to U.S.A as soon as possible.

Dozens? It’s well over 200.

Not so fast - take them out to sea - bring them back in a month

Make sure to bring them right back right away to the US to infect 331,000,000 people... Just like the US has been doing..

Super- That’s Good… Bad- going to Mexican border in cages.👿

Palestines, war countries need stupid legals, to be against arm robbers and liars. Go to work rights!!!! and lock up your workers

... and quarantine them for another 14 days at a US base.

Can we trade Donny for them?

It’s about time!!!

How about moving then into the White House with the trumps

Just once I'd love CNN to respond to questions with 'have you tried reading the article? '

May as well spread it while you can. I guess.

Learn Korea.

Incompetent government!

What's the end game... Where would you be keeping them?

And bring them where?

Tbh this would be an amazing experience if you had the drinks package
