I mean the stock market is crashing, good chance unemployment could tick up quickly at least for a short period of time. Companies might stop hiring for fear of what is to come economically. Even Trump humpers may have fear of this virus as they seam to be scared of nearly everything anyway. They cannot contain this message as states and large local cities will message however they feel fit including major health organizations and companies.
This will give Dems a massive chance to say "This admin is completely in the weeds and incompetent to deal with a crisis.

(3,483 posts)We ( we're the SMART ONES, ya know) will continue to respond with snarky tweets and sternly worded letters, while he continues to wreak havoc and we (the SMART ONES ya know) can't seem to come up with any kind of effective response.
We can't even seem to come up with an effective bumper sticker.
Frustrating.

(1,178 posts)That's why Trump has everyone out there trying to downplay how serious this is. He has them out there saying it's not serious and that the Democrats are trying to make this bigger than it is....even some are going as far as saying the Coronavirus is a hoax made up by the Democrats. They're doing all they can to keep from losing their base because of this.

(3,483 posts)I have a deep distrust of mail in votes, even though I live in a deep blue state.
Why can't we just vote on Facebook or Twitter?
