How Naive Is Trump?
Does he really think that banning flights from the Schengen area is going to limit Covid cases in the USA? Has no-one told him that Covid is no respecter of boundaries? Of course he wouldn't want to include flights from the UK in the ban as that would upset his mate Boris. I despair of his intelligence.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.TBH, the US has massive land borders with Canada and Mexico and a gazillion flights landing from gawd knows where every few seconds. Banning the Schengen flights is mainly a gesture, to be seen doing something in this election year. In the modern world measures necessary to stop the spread of a disease is likely to be more damaging than the disease ever could be. Ebola for example, did we lock down when we first heard of that? much more deadly yet we didn't did we?
"Would it really have been impossible to prevent anyone from that one country landing here? " - no but it would have been impossible to stop them landing in all the other countries and then it would find its way here. With modern transport and people movement it is impossible to stop an airborne virus. The best we can do is what we are doing.
I suggest you read this carefully and see whether you still think Trump has acted wisely and in a timely fashion:

""The European Commission has said that the European Union “disapproves” of President Donald Trump’s decision to protect his citizens from further foreign exposure to coronavirus by banning entry from most of the bloc’s countries without having consulted with Brussels, first.""
Haha Bless......since when did POTUS need the permission of a bunch of jumped up unelected chancers? Tells you everything about the control freaks at the EUSSR. Maybe they should be looking at their own borders and let Trump look after his. Perhaps Merkhel could put all the redundant aircraft to use and fly the millions of illegal immigrants in from Turkey. Straight to Berlin.....no health checks .....or weapons checks....or women.

Haha last week the luvvies, lefties and dimmercrats were....as one... squawking that Trump was doing nothing and that we were all doooomed a tell ya. They were all doing a Smollet and writhing about in agonising death throes and confected panic..........now.....? Trump is over reacting and taking unnecessary measures. Mind you when it comes to the Dems in America I thought that they would be happy with millions dead before the elections. Every dead voter votes Democrat.
I deliberately didn't criticise Trump earlier because I could tell that he was afraid of the situation. But it's still reasonable to say that there's no point in banning flights from Schengen countries. The disease is already in the US, and already widespread there. This action, then, serves little to no purpose.
