Betsy is a monster

1. This death rate is not a problem for the ultra rich sociopaths in the Trump Administration.

It will be our sacrifice, not theirs.

[soothsayer]

2. She repeated that ol' dr oz figure, eh?

He said 2%-3%, so kick it up a bit.

[montanacowboy]

3. Cut out of the same cloth

as the orange sob
these people are truly monsters who walk among us, to be so evil, so cunning, so cold that money and only money determines their every life move.

16. Cruella DeVos. nt

[drmeow]

4. When we bring back the guillotine

I want her to be second, right after Steven Miller.

[Pacifist Patriot]

5. I cannot tell you how disgusted I am, but it goes beyond the willingness to sacrifice children...

I'm am so angered by the narrow focus on the students (and I'm a parent with a third child still in school).

The children cannot go to school unless adults are there to teach, administrate, clean, serve food, provide security, etc. They aren't sacrificing just children. They are sacrificing adults in the schools and the families they return home too. How hard is this to wrap their fucking brains around?

[Cairycat]

6. The sacrifice of educators and staff

is a feature, not a bug for them. They hate people whose paychecks come from taxes, and especially those involved in education, which they also hate.

[Pacifist Patriot]

7. Fair point

[EarnestPutz]

22. DeVos is a big proponent of private schools, you know, the ones with really underpaid teachers,

no health insurance and no unions to protect workers. So sacrificial and disposable really sums it up.

[Pantagruel]

8. Make DeVos commit

to sending her grand kids to public schools. That would be a start at building credibility. Think Melania would send Barron to mix with the "little people"-doubt it.

[lagomorph777]

12. Make her commit to being a teacher's aide from September to January in a public school.

Of course, she would never survive that long. I'd be OK with that.

[Blue_true]

9. Each dead child will be someone's child.

She is infinitely tone deaf, another one of Trump’s good people.

[sheshe2]

10. To them it's just collateral damage.

[lagomorph777]

11. Cruella DeVos will enjoy slaughtering hundreds of thousands of children.

[Nevilledog]

13. They're just numbers on a piece of paper.

[Crunchy Frog]

17. Then she'll make coats out of the pelts.

[lagomorph777]

24. Exactly!

[Talitha]

14. Call every day and tell them your kids are sick.

[Hoyt]

15. There is severe damage too for months more of what is essentially home-schooling for kids.

Assuming half those kids are in right wing homes, that's a significant problem to me. Some other parents are equipped to teach their kids or help them with personal attention to supplement on-line instruction.

There are alternatives to closed vs. open. For example, having kids attend for say two days a week might work in some areas. Investment in disinfecting technology is another way to minimize risk.

Kids lost two or three months this spring, probably haven't interacted with others as much during the summer, etc. How much longer can we afford to just say the schools should stay closed?

I don't have the answers, but it is not as simple as "kids will die if we reopen."

[leanforward]

18. Picking on the kids, once again

May both of these creatures stumble. I hope I'm not insulting any forest creatures.

[Kid Berwyn]

19. Lock her up.

Mass murderers should not “work” in government.

[generalbetrayus]

20. Of course she's a monster.

That's why her name is Beasty DeVos.

[gulliver]

21. And what about the school employees and parents?

Kids are germ recruiters. You put them in school, they catch whatever is there and bring it home.

[Stuart G]

23. Devos says what Trump tells her to say...That is Donald Trump speaking..
