Joe Biden says he will close the country down to stop the spread of the coronavirus if scientists recommend he do so.The democratic presidential nominee made the startling promise — and affirmed his resistance to defunding police — in joint interviews with his running mate Kamala Harris set to air on ABC News this Sunday night. “I would shut it down; I would listen to the scientists,” Biden told ABC’s David Muir, in an interview taped Friday. Biden reasoned that the key to reopening a country’s economy is first gaining control over the virus and its spread. He knocked President Trump for failing to realize that

Senile Joe is at the stage that he will do anything that is "recommended".
Like, "you should take a nap now, Joe, you know how tired you get in the afternoons."
"Yes, dear".

Dr Frankenstein was a scientist too. Joe could end up with bolts in his neck and a flat-top head.

A)...whenever libs say they are "listening to scientists"...what they REALLY mean is " we are listening to liberal hacks who support our agenda."
( Note that "scientists " and "doctors" can be bought as easily as politicians)
B) ...of course brain damaged joe would shut down the economy...just like he and zippy hussein basically did when they were in charge before.

I’d like to see him try. My state has been open for months and we are NOT going back into lockdown. We started the first Civil War here and we may have to start the second.

Even if Joe had constitutional power, there are a raft of factors re shutdowns. Medical. Social. Economic.political. Geopolitical. Essential services....and more than I can list. By suggesting shutdown is but a scientific decision by others, he is confusing the roles of administrator and executive....not surprising, the executive function Departs early in dementia.

We tried that, but the Chinese virus didn't listen. Try it again, and much of the population of this country won't listen.

Joe's handlers are having heart attacks because he went off script again and babbled incoherently.
So Creepy Uncle Joe wants to destroy our economy, starve children to death, and cause a mental health pandemic that will be far worse than the Coronavirus, all over a virus with a 0.04% death rate.
He will be offering a very well scripted explanation of what he "really meant" in 3-2-1.
But this is why I am totally certain that we will never see a single debate between Creepy Uncle Joe and President Trump. His handlers will find any and all excuses to refuse to debate, and their minions in the MSM will fully find a way to blame President Trump for there not being any debates.

Lockdowns do not stop the virus. Yet the blue states are still shut down. I have been wondering when the people of Michigan and Wisconsin are going to put a stop to their lockdowns. I have heard nothing from the people of NY except whining. What are you going to do?

I've heard this before. It went like this:
"We had to destroy the village, in order to safe it."

As usual, Joe Isuzu Biden is lying. If Biden and Ho manage to steal the win, lockdowns will suddenly vanish from the blue states because Dems know that such a mad policy would prevent them from imposing the economy killing Green New Deal, massive tax increases, free Medicaid for illegals along with a pardon for the 22+ million illegals. The Democrats have more destructive plans for our country than lockdowns. Masks yes, since these face coverings will be a clear sign of obedience to the tyrants.

I think the GOP should play this at their convention on a loop. There are very few people that would be for another shut down. I am in SF Bay Area and we are still mostly shut down and everyone you talk to has nothing good to say about Newsom because they blame him. If Biden wants to immediately tank the country for a generation try another shutdown.

Biden says he would be "willing" to shut down the economy. The whole agenda for Dimocrats is to shut down the economy as we know it. Then decide how and if we get to live.

Of course, why not? His family makes most of their income from foreign sources, not the USA.
