Political Discussion

Everyone is wishing the doctors had spoken up. If they had, they're risking Trump replacing them with someone with less belief in science that will cause even more damage. By letting him go on they're, in my opinion, making a calculated decision of the lesser evil by controlling what they can and staying in the position of authority whilst providing correct scientific guidance elsewhere. Yes, Trump can spew word-vomit on a daily basis, but few people will actual take that advice. Instead, they have positive impacts behind the scenes for the most people possible..

the dangers of coronavirus make things like immigration and abortion too risky BUT also the coronavirus is a media hoax made in a lab and we can't let it control our rights and economy. do I have that right?

It’s always about power never about logic. I once told a middle school kid in counseling, if you are always expecting people to be consistent they are always going to disappoint you.”
 
One of the things we will likely see unfortunately is blue states due to their higher population density remaining closed longer than red states.

With the strong stance of no bailout for blue states already set. I can very well see the GOP not giving extra stimulus packages to Americans who live in blue states that are most densely populated and appropriate measures include staying closed longer.

Instead, I fully expect the blame game and liberate the state rhetoric.

Because it's the blue states government fault of miss management and over reacting that people will be impacted more. It has nothing to do with the population density. Or so they say.
 
Looks like some sellers of "mms" wrote letters to trump recently. Those guys basically sell chlorine dioxide ( basically bleach) or sodium chlorite as a cure against nearly everything.but those chemicals are highly corrosive and just damage yor intestines.

The worst part about this is that he really is so stupid that he thinks, hey maybe the doctors haven't thought of that and if I say this, they could do some tests and it might work!

I mean he’s not wrong, I am sure bleach would kill the virus (along with just about everything else) if you managed to flush your respiratory system with it. Also, boiling your insides and unhealthy amounts of UV light would probably kill it dead too. Looks he’s the Ideas guy with a big “one of these”, the nerds will figure out the details.

Remember all the boomers laughing about kids eating tide pods? Yea ummm...
 
Georgia started opening back up yesterday.

Nail Salons, Gyms and Salons among other things.

People packed these businesses Friday and social distancing was not followed most patrons lining up for appointments.

Some employees chose not to come back yesterday because they don't feel safe and have underlying conditions like Asthma. They are fearful they will lose their jobs. The choice given to them was either show up to work, or you can look for a new job. One lady on the report I saw said she called in sick and is trying to get a doctors note to say she is high risk and should not report back to work yet, but she's fearful it won't be enough to keep her job.

Wasn’t there some Texas politician that was quoted saying “there are more important things than living”?
 
Apparently the anti vaxxers out there are spreading a conspiracy that the coronavirus is a hoax, and the government is using this as an opportunity to microchip all citizens.

Can you believe that?

Law enforcement and politicians clash over coronavirus orders

While a small number of demonstrators around the country openly flout government stay-at-home orders geared toward stopping the spread of the deadly coronavirus, a different battle is playing out in some communities with an unlikely group of protesters: the police.
www.cnn.com www.cnn.com

In Texas, law enforcement of Harris Country is refusing to enforce to enforce Huston's new order requiring everyone to wear a face mask.

The Police Officer's Union sought support of the courts to not enforce this order. They did not get it. They are still holding their ground with not enforcing the order and have appealed it calling the Harris Country Judge "idiotic" and lacking "critical thinking skills".

They aren't refusing to enforce the order out of safety for their officers. But instead are calling the order "draconian". They do not support enforcing it as they said they will lose the public's trust.

"Our officers work every single day to bridge the gap with our community and earn their trust," Gamaldi wrote, adding, "We will not stand idly by and allow Hidalgo to tear that bridge down, with her horrific leadership and echo chamber decision making."
