Other Trump tweets on Ebola:

"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!"

"Stop the EBOLA patients from entering the U.S. Treat them,  at the highest level, over there. THE UNITED STATES HAS ENOUGH PROBLEMS!"

"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!"

"The fact that we are taking the Ebola patients, while others from the area are fleeing to the United States, is absolutely CRAZY-Stupid pols"

I shouldn't be surprised (though I really thought he was brighter than this).

But he's a politician, and both courting a segment of America that agrees with him and just being The Donald - obnoxiously ignorant and releasing a few puffs of self-importance (which must become painful when held for too long).

The only way to cure diseases is to study them in a controlled environment with the latest technology.

I'll bet big pharma is all over this, though they don't care about the victims for a different reason than Mr. Trump.

Just an observation, but you can tell how hard television is searching for relevance when they feature tweets as news segments.
