no this is the new script. They're doing it to counter Trump's attack plan 'Beijing Joe', believing Coronavirus and anti-China sentiment will guide the next election.
They're straight up throwing away the muh russia narrative and trying to spin Trump as pro-China

Nancy Pelosi just today tried to deliver this new script in one of the most absurd ways, right on CNN (of course):

Quote
: "Tens of thousands of people were still allowed in from China. It wasn't as it is described as this great moment. ... If you're going to shut the door because you have an evaluation of an epidemic, then shut the door"


So remember, just a few weeks ago Biden and Pelosi were denouncing the China travel ban as xenophobic fearmongering and Biden pledged to end travel bans if elected
and now Biden and Pelosi are teaming up to say Trump didn't go far enough and that he should have banned US citizens from returning from China
and Hunter Biden literally got slipped a gigantic diamond as a bribe by a chinese businessman, but Trump is beholden to China because 8 years ago China owned a mortgage backed security of his for 22 days between issuance and being securitized and sold on commercial markets

Restricting travel from China is basically the only move that Trump and the cult can hold up as an early response... so not surprising to see Nancy and Joe attack that talking point.

Also I can't find Biden or Pelosi explicitly condemning the China travel ban.

She doesn't even refer to the China travel ban. Lol. I guess this is just a right-wing talking point that got started based on faulty evidence, and now everyone pretends it's the truth.

What I find most interesting is that the Dems choose to try to frame the decades-long China-hawk Trump as pro-China, which is completely absurb, rather than trying to argue against the Republican accusations that Biden is soft on China.
This indicates that they simply dont have good arguments against this "China has Biden in the bag"-argument - because it is true.

Goom posted her condemning it on this very topic like 5 posts ago. Today she is condemning it because it ‘didnt ban American citizens from returning based on their race’, and before she condemned it as “racist and xenophobic” or whatever. The 31st is when the travel restriction from China went into effect. why else would Pelosi tweet that on that day. Biden called it xenophobic not too long after. https://mobile.twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1223727977361338370

wait he still called it xenophobic in the middle of March lmfao



just because you lack the ability to use search engines doesn’t mean you get to deny reality and math like you do with the 2016 election

stick to worshipping idiots like this:

President Donald Trump will expand his contentious travel ban, placing new restrictions on six additional countries, just as he embarks on a tough reelection campaign where he will tout his hard-line stance on immigration.

Immigrant visas will be suspended for citizens of four countries — Nigeria, the most populous country in Africa, Myanmar (also known as Burma), Eritrea and Kyrgyzstan — while people from Sudan and Tanzania will be barred from the U.S. diversity visa program, which awards green cards to immigrants. The new restrictions won't apply to tourist, business or other nonimmigrant travel, according to Homeland Security Department officials who detailed the new updates on Friday.


Pelosi's tweet:
Quote
The Trump Admin’s expansion of its un-American travel ban is a threat to our security, our values and the rule of law. Barring more than 350 million people from predominantly African countries from traveling to the US, this rule is discrimination disguised as policy.


Trump's expansion of the travel ban to these new countries, and his China travel ban are two different things. Pelosi wasn't talking about the China ban.

And do you think that video somehow disproves my point on Biden? He doesn't explicitly link the China travel ban to xenophobia. He says "labeling COVID-19 a foreign virus" after saying "we shouldn't fall back on xenophobia".

He even says travel bans may slow the virus, and travel restrictions based on favoritism or politics, and not on risk, will be counter-productive.

So, no, unless there's some other information I can't find, Biden and Pelosi did not speak out against the travel restrictions. It's fake news.
