Trump is desperate to get reelected and for him, he sees the economy as the only way. Well, C***D put a big damper in his illusion of an economic powerhouse which is why his means to fight it was to ignore that it was there. Well, that approach has backfired and months of sequestering may have been for naught as C***D is alive and well and growing faster than at any point in the past.

His faithful are happy to die for him but will the rest of the country? In Texas, he's slipped a point behind Biden and all the key states that gave him victory in 2016 he trails in each and every one. That means the e*******l college can't save him this time and since he can't seem to offer anything but an affirmation of h**e for his conservative base what does he have to offer the rest of the country--a country reeling from racial strife, a worldwide p******c, and an economic downturn--all things Trump has no answer for...

Ok, so, after you fools elect Biden, who will be running this country?

PeterS

I would assume Biden but from your tone, I'm assuming you think it someone else?

One thing that Biden will do is to get qualified and experienced people in the positions needed to help him run the country. Trumps big problem has been that when he did have experienced people he would not listen to them. They are pretty much all gone and now he has a bunch of yes men and women around him and he gets garbage in terms of advise. Half of the critical positions at the top in government now are held by people who are "acting" in the position as their nominations have not been approved by Congress. They have not been approved by Congress because Trump knows that Congress would throw out the nomination and he has not brought them forward for Senate confirmation. And why you ask? Because both sides know these people are not qualified for the job. But in the end it doesn't matter because Trump thinks he knows more than the rest of the government combined.

Yep, old Trump promised to bring in the best people. Several of those best people ended up in jail, the rest left because they couldn't stand Trump, and now he has multiple crisis's going on and few people he can or will turn to for help. So he just flails, lies, does basically nothing, and things continue to get worse.

Honestly do you think we could be doing things worse with our C***d response. Well maybe we could have done things worse, but it would have been difficult and right now there is no other country in the world as bad as the US when it comes to C****-**. And this is the US with the worlds best health system, best doctors, best labs, and most wealth. So yeah, it will be nearly impossible for Biden or anyone with half a brain and a ego smaller than Mount Everest to do as poorly as Trump.

And you know what Archie, most of the people in this country have figured it out. Many were fooled by Trump and his con show the first time. They won't be fooled again.

PeterS

Wow, very nicely stated. Trump didn't have a clue how to run a government and it showed in the people that he appointed.

Welcome aboard. Always nice to have a new voice added to the mix...

We are all just trying to bring a little t***h and reality into the picture before its too late. Without it the road back will be so much more difficult. It gets harder every day, but the people in the states getting hit hard with C***d right now are starting to wake up. The tide is turning, and there will be a reckoning!

It tells a lot about a leader that 1.) they can't pick good people; 2.) they can't retain good people and 3.) they can no longer even attract good people to come and work for them. Every person I have known like that failed in their leadership role. It speaks volumes about Trump and why he is failing so miserably today. Nobody to blame but himself though.

==================
Two scenarios, will analyze both.
1. To lock down, stay home, and do all precautions to avoiding spread of the v***s.
2. To take every precaution, but partially go back to work to keep life going.

Here are the results that could happen if we stay locked inside our homes for a long period of time.
1. Staying home, until the v***s disappear, though we don't know when.
Effects: People will run out of all essential supplies cause factory manufacturing these essentials are closed. Stores will run out of those items, people have nothing to buy. Store gets empty.
2. Food supplies. Become very scarce and finally will run out of supplies too, cause workers are lock down. People get hungry.
3. Medical supplies run out too, since pharmacy manufacturing are locked down.
4. People locked at home get hungry, angry, frustrated, stressed of idling for long at home, when they feel the hunger.
5. Violence increase, when desperate needs of people increase. Especially those thugs on the streets.
6. Sick people could not see doctors, or medical health care providers. Those with heart diseases, or those with medical conditions that need urgent cares.

So, decide, you prefer to say home or die without food, and medical care? The decision of president Trump is the most prudent and needed What was that? Partial work, essential to perhaps 25% to 50% depending on the area location.

But using all precautionary measures, like social distancing, and wearing masks, and frequent hand washing. These are achievable.

The current rise of the v***s is not only in the US. Fact is it is worldwide. Why do you blame president Trump of the rise? Because you are a liberal brain democrat, who does nothing but lie, and attack the president doing his best on this China v***s world crisis.

Well put!!

Tiptop789 Loc: State of Denial

I can't argue with you except to say that I live in a state that was very conservative with reopening. Things seem to be going well in that new cases have dropped significantly even though testing has increased. Throughout the lock down, or was essential travel only, i.e., food, pharmacy, medical care (at hospitals or urgent care as all Dr offices were closed). Juxtapose this with Fl & TX where cases are surging. FL reported over 9000 need cases in a single day. In my state, makes are required by not only the State govt but local govt as well. If you don't want to wear a mask, don't go in the store. Trump gets the blame because he hasn't any planned fed response. This is a large country, there need to be a coordinated plan between states, say CA & NY for example. In the NE, the Gobs on NJ, NY, CT, & MA all coordinated their openings. Trump's just "leave it up to the states" and let's reopen isn't working. Also, stop testing then there's no new cases is dumb.. Duh, how do you contain it if you don't know who has it?

Radiance3

==============
You are right there. Every state must not totally rely on the overall federal guidelines. There is the federalist where states have their own responsibilities and obligations to their own people. That is why every county or city, have their own health department who must enforce compliance on these. That is the right thing to do.

The radical dems including all the MSM's ,blame all problems to president Trump to make him look bad when problems arise.[/i]

Kazudy

What ever President Trump does is the wrong thing. If the choice is door number 1 or door number 2 which ever one he picks according to the Democrats AND the media it's wrong. The good thing about that is that many never Trumpers are beginning to see thru that and are coming to the president's side here.

Because all Trump cares about is the economy, which was his only claim to fame until it tanked. A million Americans could die, but if the economy shows evidence of recovering, Trump will be happy.

What a stupid and dumb assessment is that liberal brain? Million could die? You are hoping for that? Then you blame the president?

President Trump is the most hardworking president 24/7. He works for all of us. He does not receive salary. His mission is to saving our country from decays of the liberal rotten brains. Check all states
under democrats are all rotten, decayed, homelessness, diseases, drugs, drunks. Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle, New Jersey, Baltimore, New York, Minneapolis, MN. most cities in California.

World economy tanks. Whose fault is That? Blame China C****av***s.
For 3.5 years, president Trump had created the best US economy in history before the v***s came in. V***s destroyed most of it within 60 days.

kemmer

Hahahaha.... Trump doesn't even come down from his bedroom to work till 10:00 or 11:00 in the morning.

EmilyD

Are you really trying to imply that Trump is lazy?? Because he only sleeps about 4 hours per night - the rest of the time he dev**es to his family and his job. I'm sure a lot of men who have a wife as beautiful as Melania would rather spend their mornings working "at home" with her around than in a cold, impersonal office.
