Pence to AF Grads. "..When hardship comes, Americans come together"

[Budi]

Pence to Air Force Academy grads:


"But as each of you has shown in your time here, and as the American people always show in challenging times, when hardship comes, Americans come together," Pence continued.

He cited medical workers on the front lines, farmers and grocers keeping America fed, and autoworkers who are making medical equipment to save lives.

"With the courage, strength and compassion of the American people, we'll get through this," Pence said. "We'll protect the most vulnerable and we will heal our land."

Meanwhile:
Trump to Americans:

"LIBERATE"!!

Thousands of demonstrators descended on the state Capitol in Lansing, Michigan, on Wednesday to protest Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's restrictive stay-at-home order, clogging the streets with their cars while scores ignored organizers' pleas to stay inside their vehicles.

The protest — dubbed "Operation Gridlock" — was organized by the Michigan Conservative Coalition and the Michigan Freedom Fund, a DeVos family-linked conservative group. Protesters were encouraged to show up and cause traffic jams, honk and bring signs to display from their cars.

1. Lots Of Precautions Against A Hoax

Grads wearing masks, marching 8 feet apart (not exactly close order), sitting all spread out...
53 days ago, the 15 was going to be down to zero.
Now, the military is taking measures against zero!
Things that make you go, hmmm.

"LIBERATE!!" -Trump to his base

6. Idiot45 then belittled the distancing at the graduation as "politically correct,"

which is a dog whistle to his deplorable base that such things are to be ridiculed and ignored.

"President Donald Trump appeared to take a stealthy swipe at social distancing arrangements at the Air Force Academy commencement Saturday by referring to them as “politically correct.”

Social distancing is also a prudent safety measure that’s recommended by the Trump administration’s own Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Trump uses the term “politically correct” to belittle actions that he believes are unnecessary and demanded by progressives. “I think the big problem this country has is being politically correct,” he said during his campaign.

4. Pence was almost right.

"But as each of you has shown in your time here, and as the American people always show in challenging times, when hardship comes, Americans come together."

Or we would, if we weren't drenched in propaganda turning us against each other in a mad search for scapegoats.
