Actual Change My Mind I'd like to see

The president could have closed the godddamn borders when it was still in china

lol he did. In January. Please go study history.

I meant the whole time

Dr. Irwin Redlener, the director of the Columbia University National Center for Disaster Preparedness, called the travel bans a “mixed bag" in terms of effectiveness.

Stopping travel from China was coupled with inconsistent messaging from the White House on the potential severity of the threat. On Jan. 30, Trump said the U.S. has "very little problem," and through February, Trump was comparing the coronavirus to a flu.

“There was value in closing the border to Chinese nationals coming to the U.S. in the early weeks of this situation. Closing the borders to Europeans later? It was too late to make much difference. It’s a mixed bag,”

Nearly 40k flew to U.S. from China after Trump's coronavirus travel ban.

The serverity of the threat was downplayed by the CDC and WHO. Of course the white house followed their lead, just like every administration since the inception of the CDC and WHO.You are tilting at windmills.
