Why does the fool not understand?

Nope. Just wear a damn mask, wash your nasty hands and keep them from your face.

Okay. You don't have an answer to my two questions.

Moving on...
 
Why does the fool not understand that in order for the economy to become strong again we must first get the virus out of the way?

****in moron.

There is only one way to get the virus out of the way and that is for a certain population to have been exposed to it at a level where we reach heard immunity. Closing things down, taking all these preventative measures does not change how many people get it. It only spreads it out over a longer period of time. The benefit to this is that we don't overload the healthcare systems in place. However, if the healthcare systems in certain areas are not overwhelmed by opening back up then it's best to do that.

Immunity to coronavirus is "fragile" and "short lived," expert warns

Trump blew it. It's as simple as that.
 
Well, there could be a middle ground, keeping the economy in a holding pattern for when it's safe to have a more robust reopening.

One of the most foolish things about Trump's approach is that he's encouraging people to engage in non-business activities which will make the contagion worse and hit business harder. He's making it a point of pride for people to engage in risky behavior which is counterproductive to his supposed economic goals.

Nothing significant will be done about this until Trump is gone.
 

What does Trump have to do with it? Is he king of the states and can dictate what they can and cannot do with the administrating of their own states? Oh...right, it's actually up the the individual governors to do that. Now which state has highest number of people who have died from COVID, and it's by a factor of about 5? Oh...New York, with Cuomo at the helm as governor. So who "blew it" exactly?

Further, they don't actually know what the antibody situation is. They change their position on that often. The fact remains, is we either get it over and done with as fast as possible without overwhelming our medical systems or we just keep everything shut down and the number of dead from other causes make COVID look like a cake walk.
 
If you let the economy stay poor or shut down vastly more will die of starvation or disease aided by malnutrition and poor living standards that the disease ever could.

Fyi the corona virus can not be destroyed, it is like the rhino virus, it mutates every single year and never leaves. It seems 2 months ago it was just flattening the curve, now yall want to end the economy until the virus goes away which is scientifically impossible, just might want to admit that despite the polls biden might lose and that you accep mass poverty and death acceptable to ensure trump loses.

Infact I bet re open the economy chants are heard all over this forum by the left whether trump or biden wins in november, as by then an election will have been over and no one can be scared of jobs returning at epic rates hurting their candidates chances.

Oh look we have an epidemiologist on the board, that's neat!
 
NY???

No. I suggest you watch what Colorado is doing. We are keeping the virus in check WHILE we open our economy.

Clearly you have no clue as to NY leading teh country in dealing with the virus.
 
But if the economy goes weak, food production slows, shipping and processing slows, people can not afford rent, and the greatest factors in disease and even surviving disease is health and living conditions.

If we let the economy fail just to prevent the disease the failure would actually leave more dead than if we ended all protections and pretended the virus never happened. Look at the 1918 pandemic, the biggest cause of the high death rate was lack of treatment for pneumonia and poor living conditions and nutrition, and somehow people like you think shutting down the economy and bringing ideal conditions for a pandemic will make things better?

There is a reason economic return is moving forward, everyone with half a brain should know this, and if they were serious about protecting lives they would be doing like is done now, moving forward with restrictions rather than what some want which is shutting down the economy and locking people in their houses to fight a flu/cold type virus the type no science has ever been able to beat in the history of mankind, and this one is no different.


There is only so much you can do to handle a situation before the cure kills more than what you are trying to cure.


You need to learn that it is not one or the other.

Why are you talking about 1918? This is VERY different.

Your pots makes one wonder if this views come from half a brain.

Really poor logic, very poor understanding.

This is so typical. You'd likely pass a polygraph thinking this post acceptable.

sad really

Well lets see....DonDon could stop dog whistling and bull horning his ghoulish hordes to resist masking up and social distancing. He could stop turning masking up and social distancing into political issues, something he is singularly responsible for.

Spain just released a study that has determined herd immunity is not possible with this virus. (look it up)

wearing a mask, distancing and all the "limitations on crowds works and we know it does


BTW, what do you mean by "a certain population?"

He could take ownership of the situation and demand states follow the task force guidelines. That states didn't is why we are in trouble today.

The northeast followed the guidelines and it has been a great sucess story.

The problem for the northeast is that people travel and are constantly reintroducing the virus. We can't lock out people from red states like a country can close it boarders.
 
I just did. My God, can you really not be aware?????????????

How sad.

You did nothing but make an unsupported contention.

Look. I really don't care if you support your blather or not. So don't get upset when I tell you...

You are dismissed. (see my sig)
 
Watch what NY is doing, follow the task force recommendations.

Wear his damned mask and stop making it political.

Take ownership at the federal level and stop with the "not my job" ****.

So you don't have a plan to get the virus out of the way got it.
 
I like the term PAB for him.

that's really all he is.




and the fact that strong, independent Southern and Midwestern MEN follow him like a savior is, well, really sad.

No argument from me. DonDon declared a National Emergency and then walked off the stage toward a cliff edge taking the country with him. Don't think I have ever seen that before and I am old as dirt.

More recently, when he first made his idiot remark about asking his "people" to slow down the testing, the WH immediately tried to cover him saying "he was just joking". When asked if he was, Trump responded that he never jokes and one day later cut federal funding for 13 test facilities, some of them in Texas. Smooth DonDon...real smooth. Do everything in your power to prove to the country that you are just as much a jerk as you look like you are. Your base will love you for it and everybody else will think you belong in the dust bin of history.

News flash DonDon, your base is not big enough to pull off threading the needle as you did in 2016.

He tried while pelosi and biden were callin it xenophobia and telling people to ignore it and just go out in public.

Nancy Pelosi Visits San Francisco’s Chinatown Amid Coronavirus Concerns – NBC Bay Area
"That’s what we’re trying to do today is to say everything is fine here," Pelosi said. "Come because precautions have been taken. The city is on top of the situation."

Nancy Pelosi visited San Francisco's Chinatown to encourage tourism there three weeks after the Trump administration imposed a partial travel restriction on persons entering the U.S. from China.

I know it stinks that leftist were against it before they were for it but that is what we expect from these people.

Bull **** people were fleeing NY in droves and going everywhere else that Gov in other states were thinking of closing them down and they should have.
why do you people lie when you hate lies so much?

For the most part, New York is practicing the same guidelines we are in Colorado. Their average new daily cases over the past month have been similar to ours.

****in moron.

He only understands what his narccissistic mind tells him is best for him. He's so self centered he can't believe he can be wrong so he doubles down when a reasonable man would change course. He's headed of a cliff and taking OUR Nation with him.

What else have you got to lose.webp
