"this [earth] is just not a planet that has much promise for the future"

Normally mild-mannered, Collins said an alien arriving on Earth would conclude that "this is just not a planet that has much promise for the future"

The problem with that is they will infect so many others who had nothing to do with the rally. Earthshine2 Sep 2020 #2

Maybe Team tRump will kill off his base with Covid by having more indoor rallies. The future already looks brighter if that happens.

Only a percentage of them will be infected.

By the time the infection takes hold, the people will be scattered, and will not trace their maladies to that rally.

At times, it seems so hopeless, but I'm hangin in there.
