After a trial run in Tulsa, the coronavirus is gearing up to give its principal benefactor, Donald J. Trump, a rousing welcome to the RNC SuperSpreader Spectacular in Jacksonville.

It's early days, but the virus is descending on Duval in preparation for the big event. There were an average of 30 new cases a day before the RNC chose Jacksonville on June. 11 Since then, there has been a variable explosion of viral activity: News records set every day, culminating in 447 new cases yesterday, and 677 today.

In other news, 58% of Jacksonville residents want the RNC to take their convention somewhere else.

Duval County sees 211 new cases of COVID-19 -- a record for the 5th day in a row.

2. I predict the event will be cancelled

People are turning on trump real fast here now. I have seen the parking lot at my work go from a dozen trump bumper stickers to one today. I saw the dirty ring around where a trump sticker went on a guy's 'good ol boy' red pick up truck.

They know he isn't doing anything and those who are honest know that its only going to get exponentially worse. They also begrudgingly know that the Dems are going to sweep.

3. Music to my ears !

Poll after poll has trump trailing in FL - Although I agree with Rick Wilson: Don't doubt bet on it unless you've got a double digit lead; the Florida GOP excels in the dark arts.
