He argued the administration should have put the ban into effect immediately.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhat President Biden did over the weekend is a typical half-measure that reflects the incompetence of this administration,\u201d Cotton declared. \u201cIf you want to implement a travel ban, it needs to go into effect immediately. That\u2019s what most European nations did that implemented that travel ban. If you don\u2019t want to implement a travel ban because you think the virus is already here or that it\u2019s counterproductive, then you shouldn\u2019t do so, but this is yet another incompetent half-measure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[L]ast January when the Democrats were wasting the American people\u2019s time with the impeachment trial of President Trump, I was trying to sound the alarm about this virus,\u201d he added. \u201cI was calling for President Trump to stop travel immediately from China to the United States. After about a week, President Trump did so, and I remember then that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris denounced it as xenophobic and racist, just like they called subsequent travel bans on other countries racist as well. The hypocrisy here is amazing, but it\u2019s very typical of what you get from this incompetent administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Trent Baker&nbsp;on Twitter&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/MagnifiTrent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">@MagnifiTrent<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday on FNC\u2019s \u201cFox &#038; Friends,\u201d Sen.
