By the way guys, off topic, but I started watching this documentary on Netflix last night called Tiger King. It’s all about Joe Exotic and a few others that operate exotic animal parks. Holy #%^£! I knew that guy was insane but I had no idea, none. This documentary hooked me from the beginning and every 3 minutes I said “WTF?”

They’re all insane. The strange thing is, all of the major players are criminals and doing the same things, yet joe exotic is the only one in jail. They all belong in jail!

Well, Laura Ingraham gave a direct order on Fox News that he needs to put a date on it. So he may have just been complying.



I believe in ALL it was made by local authorities. But like I said, many companies, mine included, based their decisions off CDC recommendations. Of course, those local authorities and local companies can make their own decision, but I think what Trump is trying to do is say "we no longer are asking you to do this".

Another stretch.

Here's the problem, if the businesses start acting normally and the virus explodes they will have to shut down anyway. Then more people start dying. It's a recipe for disaster, an even bigger disaster than the one that's cooking now.

Agreed, that’s why I despised Carol the most. She was doing the same thing but took a morale high ground.

I have a theory about weirdos/criminals and their names....if your "full name" has three first names, then the chances of you being a delinquent increase by a factor of 5. A few examples:
Charles Lee Ray
Billy Wayne Todd
Robert Earl Scott
Henry Lee Lucas (serial killer)

:D
 
Oh. My. Gawd. Trump claimed in his town hall today that the Spanish Flu had a 50% mortality rate. His expert Dr. Birx LITERALLY SECONDS BEFORE that said it was 2%. Can people please stop listening to him? This misinformation is just wild.

i agree with most of that ...

something i would add however is that there is a point in time at which there is not restart of the ecomony

and there is a point in which not restarting the ecomony is worse that not staying in lockdown

That's why we need government intervention, so we don't reach the point of no return.
 
The idea that if Trump says we're open for business everyone is just gonna start showing up to work is laughable. A large enough portion of the population is cognizant of the risks of being in public that there's no real going back until the virus is under control.

Again, all he cares about is the stock market because he thinks his reelection odds are directly tied to it. People need to stop listening to his briefings, "It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
