Poll
Question: If COVID-19 had first begun spreading in the US, how would Trump's response differ from China's?
#1
A more proactive approach than China (immediate federal-run lockdowns in Dallas, forced quarantines for probable cases within a couple days)
 
#2
An equally proactive approach as China (closing of area with apparent cases, shutdown of city after 17 apparent deaths, complete lockdowns of regions with single-digit cases)
 
#3
A less reactive approach (Trump denies it's a problem and refuses to support locking down of area)
 
#4
Something else

Let's dispel with this fiction Trump responded strongly to COVID because it originated in China. Trump had a phenomenally weak response to COVID and complemented China's government in its transparency and cooperation in addressing the outbreak until doing so was no longer politically viable.

If it had started in the US, he'd have probably had a similar weak response unless it started somewhere like San Francisco, in which case I think you can look to Reagan's response to AIDS as something of a precedent for how Trump would have initially responded.
