Now is the time to cordon off all of the US. Nobody in or out, you stay in there and rot and fester.

May I recommend that we, as a global community, not decide to allow rot to fester in a country with more nuclear warheads than any other on the planet and continually degrading safeguards for their inventory and security?

That rot can go metastatic very quickly.

For only $5000 a month, you too can sponsor an American neckbeard like me! For your generosity, you will receive one poorly made crayon drawing each year, and a heartfelt letter written by Chat GPT.

May I rather also recommend that we don't leave good folks rot in there?

They will be crushed, and can never help in the rebuilding of society
