Biden has reccomended a halt to immigration from India to prevent the spread of covid. This might be a good thing. BuI seem to remember Biden slamming Trump for halting immigration from China to prevent the spread of covid. He called trump zenophobe (sp?) among other offensive names. I think I smell a very large hypocricy.

Trump said Democrats “loudly criticized and protested” his announced travel restrictions, and that they “called me a racist because I made that decision.” Trump is overstating Democratic opposition. None of the party’s congressional leaders and none of the Democratic candidates running for president have directly criticized that decision, though at least two Democrats have.

Besides, different circumstances. There’s a whole lot more data and different variants to be considered.

Call it what you will but, with Biden:
“The new restrictions are on the advice of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and are imposed ‘in light of extraordinarily high COVID-19 case loads and multiple variants circulating in India.’”
With Chump:
His record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering are what drove him. He was the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health emergency.
If you want to call THAT
"hypocricy" then, have at it. Not sure what that word means anyway.

One type of hypocrisy is insulting another for doing what you have done. Exactly what Biden suggested

Giving arguendo, Trump’s decision regarding China and Biden’s decision regarding India are simply not comparable.
Chump's focus was on division, hate, and xenophobia.... PERIOD!
Biden's focus IS on helping others survive this pandemic.
Wrong Krak. The word is p-o-l-i-t-i-c-i-a-n. That encompasses both which is something you and the howlers on either side just don't seem to get. Everyone makes excuses. First for Trump, now for Biden.

Biden has a humanitarian interest in India. Trump was void of humanitarian interests. Big difference,

If you're looking for a warm feeling, hopefully you got one.
Probably similar to the one you get when you pee your pants thinking about Big Perp!
