Protesters are stupid beyond stupid,.. just like Trump..

..The protesters believe Trump more than the doctors and world health officials. They will not get sick, and they truly believe it. Trump is the model and sets the tome. So, some of the protesters will get sick and die. Those protesters don't have a clue as to how much Donald Trump, the President of the U.S., is protected from the virus in every possible way.
..They will protest, get close to each other, not wear masks, and pay the price at some point. Very sad...but...better them than me. I don't like staying home, but I like to stay alive more.

He's getting rich off of all this. What are they getting?

These people are literally fighting to be allowed to risk their lives and their loved ones' lives in order to make sure my stock dividends don't get cut.

...Yes, I don't want my dividends to be cut either...????

.....If they stay at home in Florida, they will have to use the ...."air conditioners"...Is that correct?
Years ago, I read about a stock, that was likely to go up. It was called, "Florida Power and Light" So, I bought some....Yes it did indeed go up since I got it many years ago. Those stay at home people are increasing the value of that one...
..by the way, it is now called...Nextra......Yes, it is the old FPL.. and it has gone up a whole lot.

but their families and the people they will touch and needlessly put at risk. There's the tragedy and reckless endangerment.

4. They are conditioned and easily triggered

Conditioned to be victims. Strong manly rugged individuals who don’t need anyone telling them anything but at the same time fragile little flowers at the will of the wind.

I saw the church protests as what they were - triggering and divisive. Pick a side. This is, I guess, just a secular use of the same tactics.
