They want to die. Trumpers that is.

I stopped by my local Trump/Fox News bar in Columbus tonight for a carry out sub ... stupid good ... and the porch is backed up without one mask and people are on top of each other too.

The Beast is burning through Franklin County 10,000 dignosed cases and at least 100,00 according to the CDC's numbers. My vet's office 1 mile north of here just had to close because 2 of the vets and 2 or 3 of the techs had the virus.

3,000 experts dont.

Believe it or not, that is the case.

Dumbest adult alive they believe, the adults with the education and experience they mock.

I said LONG before the virus that we will NOT survive them, that they WILL get us all killed.

All of DeWine’s pressers right there about the virus, too.

How thick can some people be? For sure we have our share here in NE Ohio as well.

I was trying to return books at the library drop off today and several unmasked people who walked up with their books were squeezing between my car and the book drop, inches away from me, to return their books in the same drop. I had my mask with me but didn’t have it on because I certainly didn’t think I’d be in contact with anyone at the drive through book drop, ya know? I will probably get tested next week just to be safe.

I live in a gated community.
(Not my idea, inherited after my parents passed away.)

The Republicans in here have absolutely lost their minds.

We have a lot of events here, and we also have a lot of public gathering places. The HOA board finally had to shut everything down, because someone in here got in touch with the lawyer for the association. And the lawyer highly suggested it would be a good idea to follow the rules.

To a person, the Democrats who live here have been very careful about social distancing, wearing masks, staying away from those who are not practicing safe measures.
And trying our darndest to educate the Republicans, to no avail.

The Republicans actually took matters into their own hands, and celebrated the Fourth of July with public gatherings, after the board had shut everything down.

They had to shut down the dog park because no one would follow the mask/social distancing rules. You would not believe the uproar over the dog park. They all swear they are following the rules. But you can drive by and no one is doing what they are supposed to be doing. Ever.

Their attitude is that they will take care of themselves and wear a mask if they feel it is necessary. Of course none of them ever feel it's necessary. None of them are thinking about the fact that they could be shedding virus and spreading it throughout the village.

Yesterday I found out that we do have people in here who have Covid-19. It finally made its way into our gated community. It will now spread like wildfire. I am sheltering in place in my house!

Any day now I'm expecting a civil war with torches and pitchforks. The Republicans in here really are insane.

but for the life of me, I can't understand how you would even want to eat anything from a place that is likely to be spreading it.

No sub is that good.
