Two Presidents Two Potential Pandemics

How Trump handles a potential pandemic..


How Obama handled a potential Ebola pandemic in 2014.
One could legitimately argue the outbreak of the Ebola virus was a far less threat to the United States and other countries then the Coronavirus. Ebola was nearly limited to one country whereas the Coronavirus has now spread to 50 countries. Even though far less threatening former President made a much larger deal out of it. The markets didn't crash because of it. The reason why is how Obama reassured not only the United States but the world realizing not only would our markets be affected but the global economy as well. Hence was able to avoid what we see happening in markets all over the world.

Speaking at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia, President Obama provided an update on the U.S. plan to help combat the Ebola epidemic in West Africa. September 16, 2014.


In short no country's economy is insulated from what happens to another's. Now more then ever we need a President to demonstrate the leadership of the United States to the rest of the world. Unfortunately it doesn't help matters when...
