Hmm I was just thinking that mf45 wanted everything open tomorrow Easter . Fill the churches

[lunasun]

Meals at restaurants or gatherings at home . Everybody else not celebrating the holiday could be finally out and about at all the retails stores now open and enjoying the shopping offers or going to Disney , a movie or game
Anyway my thought was the science community must be supported and stay strong in government
Because I don’t trust trump along with some random entities like the marketplace and certain sects of organized religion to come together alone and make decisions for me about a virus

1. He has since changed his tune--and what else is new?

I read that his advisors spoke to him about the possibility of his losing the up-coming election if he didn't start taking the news about covid19 very seriously.

He heard them.

3. Hope he doesn't change his tune again or that they stop him again

He seems subdued now I agree but he is a narcissist and many have his ear I fear

2. that was nothing but a payoff to the fundies. easter is the big collection day.

nothing more.

4. Threatening to "open" is a blame tactic.

Trump will blame others for holding him back from "opening the country." Trump has no power to do so and he knows it, but he can blame common sense people for holding him back. So all through the campaign, Trump can bellyache about how "they" have done him wrong. As always, he's the almighty victim.

And what? 42% of the population would lick his feet?

5. Ugh his victim crap . Its an opportunity of the pandemic for him ! You are correct he can push and

shame blame but his power is limited .

6. Or making decisions for me about anything else. ...nt

7. I am personally not at all religious,

so Easter doesn't mean much to me. But I do understand how important it is to many others. And all of those others should understand that we are a long way from the end of this. And they'd better understand that staying at home is the right thing right now.

I have a good friend who is an observant Catholic. His faith means a lot to him, is an important part of who he is. While he's not about to break the stay at home orders, he was feeling a bit distressed about not being able to go to mass tomorrow. I was able to help him and let him know the times he can watch an Easter Mass on EWTN, and he was so happy. And I was so glad to be able to help him.

We really are all in this together.

8. +Your post here would be a good addition to this OP below . Showing there are alternatives for group

prayer needs
Your friend’s catholic church was going ahead tomorrow but Catholic archbishops of Chicago + New York, have canceled all masses. It s up to all local church leaders to do the right thing by cancelling and offering some alternatives

9. No, my friend's Catholic church is NOT going ahead tomorrow.

I thought I had made that clear. He knew he couldn't go to Mass, was distressed, and I was able to help him find an alternative.

I apologize if I wasn't clear.

10. Hey it got him set up to GOLF this weekend

It's really that simple.

11. Covid-45 is his forever, while he's desperate to con people

To believe first it was a hoax, then blamed the Democrats, china, WHO, and others, while he refused to do anything, even help the states. He's so desperate he'll claim he's doing a great job, when everyone can see he's doing everything he can to prevent help, hide the numbers, and use it as a weapon against the American people now. He intentionally is hurting us now, repeatedly coordinating with Putin and his bots for messaging , and will try to rig with Putin another election for him.Maybe this time they'll undermine the electoral collage to do it this time.
