Donald Trump is considering a quarantine of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
I am giving consideration to a QUARANTINE of developing “hot spots”, New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. A decision will be made, one way or another, shortly.

I support this, largely because of the large population of Jews that exist in this region. The last thing we need are these filthy people spreading themselves across our great country. We need these Jews contained.
I also support this because it is making the New York Governor Andrew Cuomo who has promoted all sorts of doom and hysteria about the coronavirus a bit nervous.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP on Saturday suggested he’s considering implementing a quarantine for New York and the surrounding area as the number of coronavirus cases there continues to rise.
“We might not have to do it, but there’s a possibility that sometime today we’ll do a quarantine,” the president told reporters Saturday afternoon. The quarantine could also apply to New Jersey and certain parts of Connecticut, Trump said, describing New York as “a hot spot” for the virus, which causes a disease known as COVID-19.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo told reporters Saturday he had spoken with Trump recently but that the president did not mention any new quarantines.
“I don’t even know what that means, I don’t know how that would be legally enforceable,” Cuomo said. “Not even knowing what that is, I don’t like the sound of it.”
Not sure why he doesn’t like the sound of a quarantine. He has spent the past few weeks telling us that we are in the midst of an apocalypse. He should be welcoming the quarantine if that is the situation we are in.
But the main reason why I support this is because of how funny it would be. The only thing that would be funnier is if Trump ordered a quarantine of every state that voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. Now that would be extra funny.
