    I actually don’t know what your question is. I thought I already answered it. If I didn’t. Ask it now.

    Then you can answer my question. Deal?

    How predictable, if you don't know what the question was, how would you think you had already answered it.?...we're done.

    Does it taste like the highest unemployment rate in 80+ years and 50k deaths?

    America is certainly great again...

    Lack of preparedness and disregarding it as not serious from the beginning didn’t help the cause. But we can spin and deflect that for hours

    I guess we can. Now that businesses open up, the PPP encourage small business owners to hire back employees, and the economy starting back up again, that argument will be old news in September. Perfect timing 2 months before the elections. :)

    Trump is going to scale back from the Coronavirus briefings.

    sounds kinda snowflaky, but whatevs. He loves the spotlight, so his minions probably warned him if you want to completely burn down even a slice of a chance you get re-elected you better shut the hell up.

    it’s akin to taking his ball and going home.

    I haven't followed this part of the story, but wouldn't an old fart who had been hospitalized for coronavirus and been released be likely to be non-contagious by that point?

    tough shit...that's the price he pays

    those daily briefings have never been about informing the people. They have been ego-driven substitutes for trump's campaign rallies. He's been haming it up in front of the camera at a world record pace, and talking at least 1 to 2 hours a day, most of the time, talking out of his ass, and it's all intended to prop up his re-election chances

    he's the one that created the stage, jumped into the middle of it, and has hogged the limelight. He set the stakes so naturally, when he says something really stupid, he's going to be ridiculed and pay a price

    and by the way, trump telling doctors what they should "look into" is pretty stupid.

    if you do, then why do you support trump? He's a habitual liar. Maybe you're really a fan of alternative facts or believe the truth isn't always the truth, :biglaugh:

    The real problem with opening up more suburban and more rural is that the more urban centers will get jealous that they will have more freedom.

    Places like New York probably won't open up until July or so. They will be trapped, while the rest of the country comes to normalcy.

    So you are in support of the briefings being over then. Cause there wasnt any facts going on there.
