Trump Will Look At This As A Win....

No one sees his taxes before the election. This will be tied up in the courts for a long time in the future.

Trump Promises Arizona Gov. Ducey He'll Help Them Deal With Covid......

He's sending the U.S. Navy Ship - the Comfort - to Arizona.


[Note: I posted this very early this morning and I don't think many DUer's saw it. So I'm posting it again.]

Did I Hear Pence Say 'We Flattened The Curve Now And We Can Do It Again'?......

If we would have had a nationwide plan and implemented it - instead of 50 different plans - we wouldn't have to flatten the curve again. It would have been flattened and stayed flattened.

Now we're right back where we started and we're making the same mistakes and we'll be facing the same problems we did the first time (i.e., overwhelmed hospitals; increased death; shortages of PPE; shortages of health personnel; lines for testing; etc).

Why haven't these people learned anything by their incompetence from the start? Why do they keep making the same mistakes?

Until Trump is gone from the scene - this will continue to happen. He must be defeated in November,

I've Seen Some Posts Here About The Potential For Brain Damage By Covid.....

and that people have recovered from Covid will be damaged well into the future.

And now they are talking about re-opening the schools and putting our children in danger.

Are they pushing for a future that we've seen in that science fiction movie - Idiocracy?

Here's a description of that movie:

a dystopian world where commercialism has run rampant, mankind has embraced anti-intellectualism, and society is devoid of such traits as intellectual curiosity, social responsibility, justice, and human rights.

Is this what Trump is pushing us to?

Yes - Dr. Brix - The Parents Have Been Very Protective Of Their Children To This Point.....

If we haven't widely been testing children and don't have the data as to how susceptible or infective they might be - how can you advocate for opening schools without that info? Your a scientist - for God's sake. Why are you being so reckless and cowering at Trump's dangerous wishes?

This whole Task Force is so bogus - it's just maddening.

If I had kids I wouldn't be sending them back to school at your unfounded conclusions that schools can be safe. I would continue to still be very protective of my children and I urge parents everywhere to do the same and continue to protect their children.

There are just too many issues related to re-opening schools and making sure that it is done safely and soundly.

Are we going to be reversing the re-opening schools (like so many States are now reversing re-opening their cities) a month and a half after we do - because we're seeing more spikes around the country?

No Mr Pence - Not Every American Feels We Can....

safely open the schools.

What don'tthese people at this Task Force get?

Look what happened when States opened up bars & restaurants. We now have new and potentially more dangerous hotspots because Trump wants to juice the economy before Nov.

Why are they willing to keep making the same mistakes and killing Americans.

Schools Can't Open If There Are No Teachers.....



Teachers should go on a nationwide strike.

Teachers will be at greatest risk if schools reopen. Can't reopen schools without teachers.

Trump doesn't care about the kids, the teachers or their families.

The only thing Trump cares about is his re- election and he's focused on juicing the economy before Nov.

Let's be honest with ourselves - this is what it's all about.

Are Any Repug Governors Up For Re-Election In November?.....

If so - how many? and which States?

Trump Could Have Been A Great President....

If he just made all opposite decisions and did exactly the opposite of what he did do. It's like everything he has done was wrong or bad.
