trumps trying to force kids back to school

[duforsure]

While a active virus pandemic is raging now out of control should just make more of his supporters run from this lunatic. He caused the premature re-openng of states , which has failed badly causing more to die, and wants this? i think its more diversions , but this will backfire badly for trump and any republicans that support this. What person would send their children back while a very , very active virus is killing people, or support a politician who would do this to the people, and their children?

1. 3 pm ET prez and 1st lady host a "national dialogue on safely reopening schools"

Might give a clue, but it’s probably “schools are day care and we need to get parents back to work, so...”

2. I wonder how his kid's private school will handle re-opening

3. Daycare's already seeing a dramatic rise in cases

And trump still wants kids sent to school? Bet a lot of his supporters are turning against him even more now. This will backfire badly for trump.

4. Just found out a camp in Central Texas I went to as a kid tried to re-open

and had several kids test positive in the first session. When Abbott allowed camps to reopen, I only thought about day camps, which would be bad enough. But this camp is one where you drop your kids off on a Sunday afternoon and pick them up again the next Saturday. And it's in the middle of nowhere, so a lot of the families drive a couple hours from the big cities to drop off their kids. I don't understand the parents that would be willing to risk this kind of activity right now.

5. This will be like how we opened on Easter

It's always a moving target for Trump and he's never accountable for not meeting his goals.

And as someone pointed out, this isn't about school, it's about daycare so workers can return to work.

6. How many trumps?

7. He's emboldened by the woman in Florida who murdered her daughter for him.

The one who sent her already weakened sick child to a Covid party. He wants to see how many more people are willing to kill their children for him.
