Democrats, including 2020 presidential candidates Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren, have warned that the president’s policies have made the United States more vulnerable to an infectious disease crisis.
“This is another attempt by a failing candidate to gain credibility on an issue where he has almost none,” Trump campaign spokeswoman Sarah Matthews said of Biden.
As the midterm elections approached in fall 2014, Trump and numerous GOP leaders faulted Obama for his response to Ebola. Obama appointed Ron Klain, a Democratic political operative, as the administration’s Ebola czar.All told, four people in the United States were found to have contracted the disease, including a Liberian national who died while visiting Dallas.
But Tim Morrison, who served on the NSC from 2018-2019, said Ziemer’s team was merged with another NSC department and experts remain on the White House staff. He cited the administration’s handling of an Ebola outbreak in the Congo in 2018 as evidence that the White House remains capable of coordinating an effective response to an international threat.
