He's been talking a lot about wealth and god and how you cannot have both of them, you must choose who your master is.

Some fascinating listening the past several days.

I wonder if this is why some of the bizarre things we've been witnessing the past several days are part of how prayer may be affecting things right now.

Very intense and almost frightening I'll admit.

Will tune in again tomorrow and see what the situation is as I've been monitoring this particular scenario very closely as it is too strange to ignore. *eek* !

There must be a time lag between when you acquire the virus and when it’s detectable with a test. Hopefully those two were carriers before they caught it with this test.

A Pelosi presidency is a little farther from total fantasy now.

I shall indulge:
(cue harp music-fade to dream sequence)
1. Trump, Pence gone, r.i.p.
2. Pelosi has entire Trump administration charged, awaiting indictment
3. Evidence coming quickly supporting fact of Republican treason
4. Senate looses a few members, Governors of effected states rethink their future while appointing new senators
5. Congress impeaches and re-examines all Trump appointees to federal benches
6. While repealing republican tax cuts, congress discovers that the whole country can live off the unnecessary extra wealth of its multi-billionaires for years and only Yacht makers can feel the difference
7. Science controls national reaction to pandemic and total recovery "just magically appears"
8. Progressives breathe sigh of relief and wrestle with internal ideological purity testing
(cue sound of screeching brakes)

Okay, Okay. Back to.... a president Pelosi is not a total fantasy now.

if both the President and Vice President were self quarantined and unable to perform their duties. Heaven knows we need a healthy and wise person in the Oval Office at all times with their finger on the nuke button according to republiCONs. I'm sure it'll get interesting if both dumpie and dence are down at the same time. McTurtle is already making plans to step in instead of Pelosi, but his scheming will fail no doubt. Really liked #6 above, wouldn't be surprised if it's true, often thought they could pay off the national debt.

If Trump and Pence ended up quarantined on ventilators, would Nancy Pelosi get to sit in as president?

Now Trump's ragtag team is contaminating Camp David.

No one will want to be near him -- no friends, staff, cabinet, military or foreign dignitaries.

The whole world is watching.
