The Lincoln Project: School
COVID puts everyone at risk. But with schools open, Trump just put our kids on the list.

Hasn't he even denied that kids can get coronavirus?? And people will believe him - the same way that they believed him and drank bleach... 
Ty, Rhiannon. 
Not only is this powerful, but this is an issue that desperately needs to be addressed! Schools are opening (in August?!) with no preparation, putting kids in serious danger - meanwhile Trump continues to pronounce that kids are immune - despite thousands of cases to the contrary! 
It took only 2 days for our local high school to have 1 case. They did not publicize it, of course. 
Why decision makers follow chumputin's directives on anything is completely beyond me!
Other schools in my area have had outbreaks, then announce going to online school for 2 weeks. Two weeks! Wtaf?
Humans are social mammals, but what is so difficult to understand about the fact that we can no longer be crammed together in social groups like sardines in a can?
They seem to keep trying the same things over and over again - expecting different results.
My real question is: how does putin benefit from all US citizens being infected? This seems to be rump's goal, so there must be a connection. 
He started in Europe, but has achieved unimagined success here in the U.S. due to the coronavirus and Trump!
And why are schools still opening after we've seen what has happened with those who did - and anyone with half a brain knows that classrooms are petri dishes during the best of times! Last I knew, schools here were still scheduled to reopen when they always do, the second week of September - even after they've seen the results from other places. I also don't get schools that opened in what's still considered summer when they had no time to prepare, do they even have air conditioning?? I dread hearing even more results.
And there are idiots out there that are clueless enough to believe Trump when he says that children are immune - when the numbers say otherwise! And he and his minions have officially announced that the virus is over - when in so many places it continues to get worse!
