Politically that was a stupid thing to say. He needs to sudy politics and learn to speak like a politician. "I will do whatever is required within the law to solve this problem". At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

| petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | No, not sure. I think partly because over 30% are over 65, and the lowest concentration of testing in the US is in Az. Really bad on the Navajo reservation, with fewer than 70% having running water. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12554 | Inside Trump’s coronavirus meltdown Great article from the Financial Times about just how badly Donny has screwed the US. Still waiting to hear from our righties all the good stuff he’s done in response to the crisis (besides the China travel ban they always cite).

I am fairly sure it is more of the same garbage published all the time, but you linked a pay-walled site, so I won't be reading the article. We can't even tell from your quote what issue they were talking about. In spite of all the left's whining about him not following the advice of scientists, and some of his own dumb comments, he has followed a goo deal of the guidance and advice provided. Some of it has worked out well, some of it has not. We can't shut down for an endless amount of time. and just print money to cover it. There may be a few jobs people don't need to have due to already having money, but a huge percentage of jobs are essential to the people who hold those jobs. |

WTF Fauci does not think schools should open Trump wants schools to open. He's Mr Death WTF does this have to do with the economy. Its unsafe to open the schools but Trump disagrees with science We are now finding insidious problems in children due to this virus Lets stay safe and keep the kids safe. Our economy does not depend on grade schools. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/05/13/coronavirus-trump-says-schools-should-open-fall-fauci/5187530002/ Trump says schools should 'absolutely open' this fall, says Fauci did not give 'acceptable answer' https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/13/health/coronavirus-children-kawasaki-pmis.ht Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12554 | I suspect one of the reasons our righties are so hesitant to specify the good stuff (besides the China travel ban) they say Donny has done in response to the pandemic is because I will be easily able to find a tweet he sent out afterwards that contradicts his advice or the action he supposedly took. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |
