Democrats were calling anyone who wanted to close the border to Wuhan racist against the Chinese even when China itself was doing it. They were priding themselves on never taking the Trump vax.

Can't say I remember Democrats saying Trump was racist for wanting to put travel restrictions on China. I see Trump made a false claim on Biden that Biden called him xenophobic for doing so, but here is what Biden actually said.

All Dates in 2020.

On the day the White House announced the travel restrictions, Biden did say at a campaign event in Iowa that as the pandemic unfolds, Americans “need to have a president who they can trust what he says about it, that he is going to act rationally about it.” He added, “This is no time for Donald Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia – hysterical xenophobia – and fearmongering to lead the way instead of science.”

The Biden campaign says Biden’s “reference to xenophobia was about Trump’s long record of scapegoating others at a time when the virus was emerging from China,” and that he was not talking about the travel ban.

On April 3, Biden’s campaign said Biden supported Trump’s decision to impose travel restrictions on China.

“Joe Biden supports travel bans that are guided by medical experts, advocated by public health officials, and backed by a full strategy,” Kate Bedingfield, Biden’s deputy campaign manager, told CNN. “Science supported this ban, therefore he did too.”

On ABC’s “This Week” on April 5, Biden responded that while he agreed with the travel restrictions on China, he didn’t think the president acted with enough “urgency.”

You got to go faster than slower. And we started off awfully slow. He indicated that I complimented him on — on dealing with China. Well, you know, 45 nations had already moved to keep — block China’s personnel from being able to come to the United States before the president moved. So, it’s just — it’s about pace. It’s about — it’s about the urgency. And I don’t think there’s been enough of it, urgency.

Trump vax? You're speaking like Trump was personally inside the facilities himself, hand crafting the vaccine, Lmao. Sorry but this is complete nonsense, who the hell was taking pride is refusing the Pfizer vaccine except from anti-vax idiots...Who are mainly Trump supporters, yes, there's some idiot antivaxxers on the left too, but boy what revisionist history to make it seem like it was the Democrats who were antivax when it was actually in fact mostly Trump supporters.

Funny how quickly people forget who the original antivaxers were.
