1. So are his enablers in the ReTHUG party

Dems should be screaming from rooftops

[Lock him up.]

13. It's their new "old" Healthcare policy but enhanced...

... "If you get sick, die quickly faster." for short.

Lock him up.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

28. Amen on that. But get the feeling ship has sailed. We have

no national leader to pull it together. Trump was smart to decentralize it all. It diffuses everything and makes it even more difficult to focus blame.

But here we are, playing by the rules, going with science, staying home. But the others are out spreading and it's like we'll have to stay at home forever.

[leftieNanner]

2. ...a never ending first wave....

That's the way I have felt too.

Damn.

[Leghorn21]

3. I know, right??! People are talking about the "second wave coming in the Fall!!" and I'm like wait

wait

WAIT, the first is still rolling out, ffs

but hey, I’ll just keep layin low and hoping for the best

[leftieNanner]

4. We are doing the same

But we are retired and our kids are grown and gone. No grand children yet.

We joke about my writing things like "wash hair" and "vacuum" on my calendar just so the pages aren't completely empty!

And our (also retired) next door neighbor walks over (BYO) for coffee on Sunday mornings on our back deck.

I go to the grocery store now and again, and I have visited the horse rescue barn where I volunteer a few times lately. Masked, of course.

I do not want to get sick and I do not want to infect anyone else. This is a rolling tsunami of cases and we do not have even the slightest handle on controlling it.

5. We have to go out to the grocery store

and a couple of other essential places. Our children are also grown and gone. If they were around, I might consider sending them on errands once in a while. They tell me they are being cautious as well. Our son has been here. He brought us a rescue cat. I wonder if I will ever see my girls again.

6. Titus is definitely on the money here.

In Chump's own words, we are a rudderless ship heading for disaster.

[KS Toronado]

7. And the countries with the lowest cases per million, all require masks in public

When in the hell are our politicians/leaders gonna learn?

8. He has a federal plan that the Southern states are implementing. "Let God sort it out." "Party

hardy and don't worry about anything, everything is totally under under control"

[GopherGal]

24. And buy low!

While the stock market is down.

Because that's what they really care about.

[LiberalArkie]

25. In Arkansas I think they want individuals to buy high. At least that was the way it was when

I was working and they purchased stock though the employee stock purchase plan.

9. New Jersey has survived its Memorial Day spike of new cases

Fortunately, we didn't hesitate to get the ball rolling on mass testing (without Dr. Trump's permission), and are succeeding at getting the enough of the asymptomatic and the infected off the streets and into proper quarantining:

15. Good, but...

See my reply #14 down here.

Lock him up.

[IronLionZion]

10. There are shithole countries who had 0 deaths

[kairos12]

11. In Arizona we are screwed by a Trump

imitating, no mask wearing, virus hugging clown of a governor.

[C Moon]

30. Yeah, that guy appears to be doing some Trump butt kissing.

[NonPC]

31. Ducey Will Be Gone

I think Kate Gaellga (Mayor of Phoenix) will be running about Ducey next time. She is being very vocal about the lack of a consistent message on masks and openings from the Gov's office. She will clean his clock.

[dem4decades]

12. "50 different plans, noneworking"? It seems the CT and NY plans worked pretty well to me.

Painful but successful.

[Lock him up.]

14. Although that's good, what are they supposed to do now?

Block anyone from out of state from coming in and risk new spreads?

How do you do that successfully?

Police blockades on every road at the borders?

Lock him up.

[dem4decades]

16. i'm not arguing that a Federal plan isn't needed. i'm crediting states that did it right.

[rocktivity]

17. That's exactly what Florida did

[Lock him up.]

18. But the border is not closed?

There are checkpoints along I-10 at the Alabama/Florida line and I-95 at the Florida/Georgia line but they are not roadblocks.

How about ALL the other roads? How about infected people told to quarantine but decide not to (mostly Russiapublicans) because they couldn't care less and think they're invincible, or those who aren't able to?



Lock him up.

[Oppaloopa]

27. Are you kidding? We are on a big increase.1,000 new cases per week 53 dead in one day.

[rocktivity]

29. And that's precisely because comphrensive mass testing

has been the missing ingredient.

26. I'm in NY, but close enough to

the PA border that we get some of them coming here. Cuomo has given all public places permission to deny access and service to anyone without a mask.

Got a text from a RW cousin from SC. He is driving to PA for his wife's family reunion. So, plenty of exposure opportunities on the road and at the family gathering. Then, while up north, he wants to visit me after the reunion where nobody will wear masks. (Rural RW folks)

I told him that my apartment building management requires masks and has limits on visitors (true but not enforced). I offered to meet him at a local park. I am not letting germs inside my place. At least outdoors is a bit safer. But he is a stubborn type who would skip the visit rather than accept limits so I do not expect to see him. In fact, he has not responded to that text.

The last time I saw him was 2 years ago at his father's house in AZ. His father is a solid Dem, and there were squabbles over political issues during that visit, with me on his father's side.

So I think this setting of limits will cause a break in my relationship with the cousin. He knows my physical vulnerability but refuses to believe that precautions are necessary.

19. A friend was placed in ICU this afternoon with CoViD. It is not looking good.

[deurbano]

21. So sorry to hear that, and hope the situation will turn around. This is a scary, surrealistic time.

[niyad]

23. Thank you so much. It is indeed a scary and surrealistic time.

[live love laugh]

20. And Fuckface is back to rallies. Timeline updates are in order. nt

[Layzeebeaver]

22. What about all the kids STILL in Trump's/Miller's ICE containment camps?

I know we are all forgetting that they are still in cages and nothing is being done about it.

Interesting that the press hasn't asked that question of the government yet.

Are they getting tested? How many of them have been infected ?
