    Oh, well, if Trump said it then I'm sure it must have been true.

    It’s a comforting feeling that these dudes who don’t believe in science are going to protect us from Coronavirus. Very reassuring.

    Are you talking about the act that Pence in all his wisdom opposed prolifically? Yeah, what a brilliant idea, let's put Pence in charge.

    Someone needs to tell Pence "Sit down, shut up and get the hell out of the way!"

    Coronavirus outbreak is 52 TIMES worse in one Chinese province than officials admit as local authorities seek to hide the true number of people infected, report claims
    • Daily figure in Shandong has been up to 52 times the official toll, it is said
    • Shocking finding was revealed to a US-based newspaper by local officials
    • Comes after a worrying outbreak was detected inside a prison in the area
    • Mike Pompeo yesterday accused China of covering up the epidemic scale
    • The virus has killed at least 2,771 people and infected over 81,400 globally

    Our government should have acted on the coronavirus weeks ago.

    Yes, Lanny. I know. We have a lot of Asian friends....most of them are Cambodian. My wife has been there two times. I'm planning to go with her, probably next year. For the record, when I use the term, "stereotype", I'm speaking of cultural differences, and not discrimination in any way. I certainly hope we can discuss - even celebrate - those without being classified as racist, or otherwise.

    That would cripple this country if we were to do something like this. No way parents could afford daycare (if it would be even available) or to take that much time off from work.

    Trump was shocked that people die from flu. Lots of people. Which makes him the only American over age 10 who didn't know that.

    Actually, I think he was more surprised/shocked by the number of US flu-related deaths each year (upwards of 70,000) than anything else.

    Actually Im thinking it will bounce at quickly as buyers will be all over it when things improve, which they will.
