When Trump panicked

This story about Trump and the Evangelicals is well worth reading. I had forgotten all about this episode, which apparently was just fine with all the caring Christians of the evangelical right:
The U.S. cannot allow EBOLA infected people back. People that go to far away places to help out are great-but must suffer the consequences!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 2, 2014
Ebola patient will be brought to the U.S. in a few days – now I know for sure that our leaders are incompetent. KEEP THEM OUT OF HERE!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 1, 2014
Stop the EBOLA patients from entering the U.S. Treat them, at the highest level, over there. THE UNITED STATES HAS ENOUGH PROBLEMS!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 1, 2014
Ebola is much easier to transmit than the CDC and government representatives are admitting. Spreading all over Africa-and fast. Stop flights— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 2, 2014
I am starting to think that there is something seriously wrong with President Obama’s mental health. Why won’t he stop the flights. Psycho!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 16, 2014
I have been saying for weeks for President Obama to stop the flights from West Africa. So simple, but he refused. A TOTAL incompetent!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 24, 2014
We have been lucky not to have a national emergency with this lunatic in the White House. But I think that gives you an idea of what will happen if we have one.
