if these buffoons believe it's not real, it's a hoax, and no one is dying from this disease, they they should say fuck quarantine. And then their staffs can make their own decisions about actually showing up for work. Maybe take sick leave, or vacation. Let's see how other people feel about showing up for meetings with the governor. Let the rest of the world isolate the buffoons. And if those in their circles agree with the governor's beliefs, then they can show up to work, unmasked, and stand up for their beliefs.

BTW, that's sort of sarcasm. Sort of not.

You don't get to flaunt the science when it suits you and then fall in line when things don't quite work out as you want them to. And I would apply this to all republican politicians who feel this way.

they don't care enough to quarantine just on the strength of having been exposed any more than pence or trump does.

I had a test yesterday, where they put that stick up my nostrils.
Got the results in 15 minutes. I was told it’s the best test.

I think they have it or must be really worried. Otherwise, I think he would still be hound-dogging about how low risk he is.

his buddy Lindsay Graham. Probably because he knows he will win SC but he is not worried about the senate seat. If he thinks he is gonna win then the senate would be important. Lindsay might win anyway (south Carolina..🙄 ) unless the voters do what Lou Dobbs told them to do .

They will be in Rome on Sunday and I'm sure Marjorie Taylor Greene will get her face (and gun) in all of the pictures. Some folks I know may be counterprotesting (getting in good trouble.)
