Bans travel from South Africa


Biden has announced he is banning travel from South Africa.

Here is a tweet he posted in 2020:

Trump further diminished the U.S. in the eyes of the world by expanding his travel ban. This new “African Ban,” is designed to make it harder for black and brown people to immigrate to the United States. It’s a disgrace, and we cannot let him succeed.

He's the gift that keeps on giving.

It's the new COVID strain that is causing the travel ban, and has nothing to do with making it harder for black and brown people to immigrate to the U.S. The ban is also being put in place by Canada, the EU and Japan.

In short, it's not political like Trump's travel bans.

reply

As someone that despises Trump, he was actually right early on to ban travel from China when the pandemic started. He got a lot of pushback from that even though that's become the acceptable response. This is in that same line of thinking so hopefully it will help prevent it's spread.

I was referring to the Muslim travel bans as those being political.

reply

so its not racist that he is banning travel from Africa? there are lots of muslims in those countries too.

Those mean tweets hurt your widdle feewings?

reply

Oh the hypocrites! I bet you always find an excuse why your farts don't smell. And since when are Canada and the EU positive references?
News from Botswana: 0 (Zero) Covid deaths last week. How many in the US? How many in Canada? How many in the EU? The travel ban is somehow in the wrong direction.

Trump’s travel bans weren’t political either, they were done for the safety of Americans.

But when Democrats do it, it’s fine.

Hello

Might I remind you of a little thing called

RULE NUMBER ONE.

It's OK when Dems/Commies do it.

Now you won't get so mad when you THINK that Dems are hypocrites when in reality they are following their NUMBER ONE RULE.

Now you and I and everyone else can all settle down and relax.

Everything is fine.

Exactly, it’s OK for Dems to have super spreader events where they aren’t wearing masks or social distancing but if a Republican does it then they are a murderer. We have a caste system in this country, if you are a Republican you will go to jail for things that a DemoKKKrat will not.

reply

Trump did the right thing by implementing his travel ban, the DemoKKKrats politicized it when they called it racist and xenophobic. They were doing everything they could to undermine President Trump trying to protect us and it was all for political reasons. The DemoKKKrats were willing to kill people to score cheap political points and it’s beyond shameful. They are a bunch of murderers.

reply

So are travel bans racist or not? Which is it?

reply

At first I was like it makes sense to ban sick people from abroad but the DEMS enlightened me and now I am a firm believer in the reality that it is very

RACIST.

reply

Exactly and the Dems also enlightened me that rioting is wrong unless it is done in the name of civil rights or reparations for slavery.

reply

He's gone full Trump.
That's racist.
Zero doubt about it.
Racist.
I suppose Skeletor will start the impeachment proceedings immediately.

So sad.
