Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden revealed Friday that he would re-lock down the United States if scientists recommended the extreme measure to stop the spread of the Chinese coronavirus.
“I would shut it down; I would listen to the scientists,” Biden replied when asked by ABC’s World News Tonight anchor David Muir if he would shut down the country if experts proposed the measure.
“I will be prepared to do whatever it takes to save lives because we cannot get the country moving until we control the virus,” Biden, flanked by running mate Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), said. “That is the fundamental flaw of this administration’s thinking to begin with. In order to keep the country running and moving and the economy growing, and people employed, you have to fix the virus, you have to deal with the virus.”
Biden’s remarks come one day after the former vice president pledgedto implement a national mask mandate during his Democrat National Convention nomination acceptance speech. Days earlier, Biden said all Americans should wear masks “outside.”
“Let’s institute a mask mandate nationwide,” he proposed. “Every single American should be wearing a mask when they are outside for the next three months at a minimum.”
Re-shutting down the country, something President Donald Trump has opposed, would be a move at least some Americans could potentially disagree with.

He's just proposing what we should have done in the first place. Instead, Trump threw up his hands and said let the states deal with it. He just shirked any responsibility or decision making from himself and put it on governors. He's the weakest leader this country's ever had.
The pain will continue until people OBEY!
3:39 You obviously do not know how ignorant you sound. You products of the US "public" education system are one of the major problems this country faces. You are ignoramuses and completely clueless. The President can not do a blanket shut down of the country or even part of it. States have rights. And if he did happen to use powers he does not have to shut down the country how would you expect it to be enforced Rocket Scientist? The military? Then you peon losers would be hollering about that. Your best bet in life is to sit down and shut up as it's "better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt."
4:28 we are writing, not talking.
My comment produces no sound.
God help us if this buffoon gets to be President.
And, please God, SAVE FROM PEOPLE AS STUPID AS 3:39.
428 you are 339. All day everyday
By Joe's illogic, all of free Europe should have shut down until the Nazis were defeated.
As for you anti-Trumpers who commented above: Trump sent hospital ships to New York and L.A., had the Corps of Army Engineers build temporary hospitals in a matter of days, and compelled the auto manufacturers to build ventilators (many more than we needed, it turned out). Most importantly, he terminated travel from China and Europe after which dunces in your pathetic socialist party called him a racist.
But go ahead and vote for a senile codger and the most liberal senator (the one who qualified according to skin color and sex). Go ahead and vote for higher taxes and more rioting and the destruction of capitalism. Go ahead and vote for the vilification of the oil industry. Perhaps you will improve your health by walking to work in the rain and snow.
Get a clue!
Biden like all other democrats are exaggerating coronavirus so they can use it for an excuse for mail in voting.
The shame is those in the imbecile/idiot/moron range like 3:39 fall for the democrat tricks every time.
3:39
No, the weakest leader this country ever had (With carter in second place) was the Obummer and Hiden Biden administration.
Bowing to foreign adversaries. When the Iranian people rose up against the tyrannical government providing a great opportunity to make change, Obummer turned his back.
Remember the big red line in the sand statement from Odumbshit? They laughed at him.
Dumbocrats and Obummer specifically are weak, clueless, and care only about power for the dumbocrat party.
Dumbocrats can't make simple decisions!
Because the Dem run cities and states cried for days it was illegal. Now it's ok if Biden says it's ok. They just can't let someone else be right.
To be fair to SlowJoe, he thinks everyone has a gilded basement hideaway where every need is taken care of by handlers, and each thought spoken is scripted.
Isn't that how your life runs? Don't give him any malarkey in your txt replies to 1-8000-the-thing. For those texting on rotary phones the number is Beechwood 45789.
Time to Shut Down the Democrats 2020 !!! Get -er-Done
just like Sweden did
Thank you 4:28 so true
4:28 You are spot on! You dropped a truth bomb but people like 3:39 will never open their eyes to it.
The pain will continue
4:28pm, well stated, Amen.
Why are you addressing this moron. He's probably laughing because he pushed your buttons.
Spot on!
So please tell us what you would have done? Are you saying the entire country should have shut down all at the same time and this should have been done by the President? You are crazy if you believe that. What about some places had higher numbers then others? He did not throw his hands up. He did exactly as he should the President doesn't have the power you think he has.
Bozo Biden actually said that, in order to "keep the economy going", he is willing to shut down the entire country again. WTF?? Is he stupid? Okay. ya got me there.
I suppose, never having had a REAL job, he wants to make sure the businesses that were able to keep their heads above water go down with the rest of them.
ONLY a democrat, a liberal loser piece of government trash, someone who thinks spending more than 27 TRILLION dollars (he was right there in the middle of all the appropriations) is not a problem, could utter that nonsensical thought.
Start looking at how this man acquired MILLIONS while doing a job that paid $100,000 grand a year.
The best news of 2020 & 2021 is shut him down. --clueless!!!!
Biden = Hitler wanna-be !!!
And yet he complains about how Trump handled the virus. He is nothing short of a dolt put him in the nursing home wife, sister whomever she appears to him to be today.
It WAS shut down for 8 years of Obama !!! Now we are Opening it back
the hell up & getting rid of enemy Democrats 2020 !!!!
And we're willing to shut him down!
