Open borders and globalism is being seriously rethought in Europe right now, especially Italy. The EU might not survive this. Just coincidental with this virus, correct? The EU and the US whacked pretty hard medically and economically. Globalism gone bust: Italians burn EU flag, vow to leave EU over EU's lousy coronavirus response American Thinker, by Monica Showalter Original Article Now that Italy has recorded its 10,000th coronavirus death, a third of the global total, and nearly a thousand just yesterday, Italians are questioning the value of globalism, and more specifically asking what good its European Union membership does it.

Personal protective equipment and other medical supplies donated by these organizations can help save lives in #China and help protect people from the #coronavirus. You know if Trump could deport you back to Cuba, he would.

@AssemblyRoomUSA History will record @realDonaldTrump 's failed presidency as one big trial balloon--and flip-flop--after another. There's already overwhelming evidence to suggest he's been the most indecisive, petulent, and petty POTUS ever. He's a follower--not a leader.
