Almost 200,000 new cases yesterday. We should not be in this horror show.

How could any sentient being vote for Trump? He fired or got rid of all the people, protocols,
and materials that were in place that would have stopped the virus in China. And Trump did all
of that because they were "the black guy's idea."

60 days left in the horror show of Trump being POTUS but how many more months and or years of C-19?

Are operating on a different set of facts. That is the underlying problem.

to them, what they see are facts. Hence there is not a real likelihood we can have much in the way of any discussions with them, when the facts are not even able to be agreed upon.

but these people do not live in the real world but are bathed in and find comfort from
their misinformation which is fed to them 24/7.

I suspect it will be something of a surprise to the folks in the U.P. to find out that they are now Canadians.

Let's find ways to make life more bearable for them.......

This shitstorm is comparable to a war except it's a war at home that also affects the entire planet. To make matters worse, they're fighting a low-grade civil war to boot.

Wish I could just give them both a big hug..... ...... ....
