'I shouldn't be here': Oshkosh bar owner in ICU with COVID-19 angry with Trump over out-of-control p

[RandySF]

Mark Schultz has been hit on both sides of this pandemic.

For six months it was his Oshkosh bar and restaurant, both of which are closed for now after being hammered under state coronavirus restrictions.

Now it is Schultz himself, infected with COVID-19, lying in a hospital intensive care unit, laboring to breathe, unsure of when — or whether — he'll go home.

"I don’t worry much about me, but I got a 10-year-old son and my fiancée — that’s all I care about," he said through tears. "My family is all at home. They are all worried about me. I don’t want them to worry about me."

As he spoke by phone, he struggled with short breaths and was interrupted at times by fits of coughs.

"I don’t want them to go through this," he told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "I hope I get to go home."

1. They know there's a debate over the correct protocol... They could've chosen to be safe rather than

Sorry. Sad that he made the wrong choice.

2. dumbass. If you read the article he is a typical idiot.

he says he does not get into politics yet he hosted an event for don jr. He suppositely supports the governor's calls for masking, social distancing but yet oppose having to run his bar at only 25 % capacity because its affecting his business.

3. He hosted an event for Axios

whose founder was his friend and there was an interview with Don Jr. It doesn’t say he hosted an event for Don Jr.

I didn’t get from this article that this guy acted recklessly.

4. a distinction without meaning.

Im sure he was told Don Jr was the guest. Likewise saying he cares ( now that he is sick) about safety measures and yet oppose the reduced capacity for bars because its affecting his bottom line.

5. I truly hope you recover

& then remember why this happened to you.

It wasn't the Democrats that caused this tragedy. If not, then who could have been responsible?

In all sincerity, I hope you get better for your sake, your fiancees sake, & your sons sake.

6. and this is repeated how many times?..trump is a murderer, 1 is a tragedy, 200,000 is a statistic

7. If you hang with Trump you're gonna get a virus.

He's just a dirty, unclean and unkempt slob of a man. It goes with the territory.
