"Bring manufacturing home!" Our President Tweets.

Meanwhile, he tells a US manufacturer, who wanted to actually produce N95 masksin the US and offered to make them for the Governement to distribute, to go pound sand.

133 people died in Michigan according to today's numbers...we couldnt get lucky enough to have them be the clowns at the marches could we?

I would be willing to bet the rent that trump, Pence or both of them have tested positive for the coronavirus. I'm sure they are being tested as often as possible, maybe daily. Unless either was to actually require acute care or (fingers crossed) drop dead, we'll never know because it will be a cold day in hell before trump would allow a diagnosis of coronavirus to be made public.

They may be too dumb to do tests. Dump because he's delusional; Pence because he has the god stupidity.

It would be funny as f-ck if one or both died of it.

Dumb or otherwise my guess is people around them are telling them testing is a national security requirement. If we actually had an executive branch worth saving, I'd agree with that.

If trump died, I would fly my American flag for the first time since I took it down after Hurricane Katrina.

I got tested earlier in the week. I can guarantee you there is no way Donnie is letting someone do that to him every single day. I would wager the other way, and say he hasn't been tested at all. The first time the WH doctor came near him with that swab and told him what he had to do with it................
 
Time to re-institute the fairness doctrine.

Working on it. From NYT Friday:

“ Senate Republican leaders, under pressure from President Trump to install an ally who would dictate more favorable news coverage of his administration, are moving to swiftly confirm a conservative filmmaker to lead the independent agency in charge of state-funded media outlets.”

It seems pretty obvious now that all we can do is take care of yourselves, and be selfish.

People are willing to die and kill other people in the pursuit of making sure someone else makes a lot of money.

In this situation, we will all find out what kind of company we work for- just interested in making money, or do they actually care about employees? If anything, the former is going to end up losing a lot of employees and customers because of the risk (both because of the risk and the attrition).

And it also appears that the russians in charge are going to do a power grab to force people into making money for them.

It's so very clear that the moron in the white house only "leads" to make money- there's no real leadership to take us above the fray, and provide a path forward for the country other than seeing short term $$. They are happy to let people die to keep the economy alive- which is 100% against all of the regulations that date back to the beginning of the country. Willing to team up with a real enemy so that they can go down that path.

This isn't the country I grew up with at all. Thanks to the idiot, we are truly the laughing stock of the world. We've happily given up the leadership position just to make more money to a handful of people. There's a small group of people who are so anti-american that the real heroes of the country have been downplayed and abused for decades now. And a large group of people who are somehow eating all of that message up.

Anyway, it's still amazing that a health crisis that is based on science and medicine can turn into such a hot political subject.

Good luck everyone. All that we can do is let people who want to die go. And avoid them like the plague (literally).

Imagine what things will look like this fall when the federal government and and most (or more likely all) red states do not mandate or even suggest any mitigating actions. Half this country could stomach a little hardship imposed on them for about 3 weeks before they started crying about their rights and using it as an excuse to take their AR-15s to the capitol buildings.

When this flares up again in 5 months, even states like Wisconsin with a governor that tried to do the right thing will see legislatures passing laws to prevent him from taking any similar actions again. States like Texas or Alabama or Florida or Georgia won't even begin to put restrictions in place.

If those of us who know how to occasionally use the brains we were born with think 80,000 dead in 9 weeks is a shameful mark on the United States, try ten times that. We could see more people die from coronavirus related complications in the calendar year 2020 than we lost in every war this country has fought. But by the end of the year the average trump supporter is going to believe that the numbers were inflated or outright lies. Because the next spin their dear leader is going to put on this is just that. He will be helped of course by all the red states that are going to go out of their way to not count deaths accurately. It will be interesting to see how they explain the dead bodies that literally might need to be stacked up on the street if the numbers get as bad as they could have gotten this spring.

A lot of Americans are stupid and I don't think you can overstate just how stupid some really are. The right wingers I deal with are already merging over into the "this wasn't really all that bad" lane because we haven't seen 250,000 dead yet, they don't know anyone personally that has died (you and I both know they aren't smart enough to do the math in a country with 330,000,000 people), the flu kills 160,000 every year or this has just been a dry run for democrats to turn this country socialist. I have heard all of those things said, and each was by a different idiot.

I want to know how we prevent the worst case scenarios from happening when I fully believe 40% of this country might do nothing to mitigate it this fall. It truly terrifies me. But what do I know, since I'm just some internet idiot snowflake who thinks living in a civilized society means I have at least some duty to protect my neighbor.

I got tested for the flu once. My understanding is the covid test is the same procedure. It sucks.
 
Re: Covfefe-19 Part 9: Shelter In Place is Temporary, but Wu-Tang is Forever

as of 4 hrs ago we are on 24hr curfew.

People are allowed to go outside from 430p to 630p in residential areas only for exercise (no autos).
Once every six days. One is allowed to petition on one for grocery shopping. The shopping trip is limited to 30min. You get two bar codes, one for cops if/when pulled over and one to show at the market.

20 day curfew hopefully ends on May 30th - inshalla

It is. They jab a giant Q-tip through your nose into your brain.

Not fun. And this was my second, as I got tested for flu a couple months ago.
