Americans impatient with continuing stay-at-home orders and other coronavirus-related restrictions have descended on several statehouses this week to clamor for governors to ease up and reopen the economy

Some of the governors have rebuked the demonstrators, including in Kentucky, where Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear said during a briefing that reopening the state immediately “would absolutely kill people.

With the help of misinformation from the far right. It should not be a choice between going back to work and your life. 39 years of income inequality and the ever smaller saftey net have left the majority of Americans in dire straits. This must change.

Meanwhile back at the ranch: The Trump administration’s promise of swift and effective action is colliding with a federal and state apparatus ill-equipped to deliver so much money so fast. for more read the WSJ

Trumpers in action right on clew with tweet!

Lets be clear.....this is TRUMPETERS that are holding these rallies....selfish, reckless, and irresponsible people following the actions of THEIR leader....Blind leading the blind!!!

Yes yes give me the disease! idiots bepatient

Yeah! Reopen the states. Many girls need the guys to work so they will have money to spend. ♀️

If they die, they die.

Sad they are broke and need to work. Hopefully they will not start saving and quit frivolous daily spending.

Ignorant and stupidity to protest government orders of shelter in place .

'Freedom' = 'I don't give a crap about anyone else'.

WSJ editorial board is a shame!

No, fed up with losing jobs and potential financial ruin.

Trumps tweets are more madness from a reality show clown and a reckless, irresponsible, blatantly illegal attempt to shift blame to Governors.

Its valid to consider what the long term outcome of the shut down will be vs. the impact of the virus itself. If the world is plunged into another depression, then what? WWII led us out of the last depression. The WWII death toll: 400,000 Americans, 75 million globally.

Plenty of other pathologies that need to be monitored and require income to treat. Those terrified to leave their house are free to stay there, otherwise-move on!

LiberatePennsylvania

Lol this reminds me of the young spring breaker that said “if I get corona, I get corona” but alas these are mature adults instead...who SHOULD know better. But I guess some people prefer the saying “ignorance is bliss” 🤷‍♀️

They are being prompted to do this by Trump.

Ok...just Have the protesters sign a waiver...absolving their state legislatures and executive officials of any responsibility in the event that they or any members of their families require treatment for this virus ...

Mad as hell and won’t take it anymore!

Protesters need to have plans to make sure the government will provide the necessary supplies and enforce safety measures to help keep this virus at bay. If you go out in the work force without terms it will be worse than a setback as Fauci mentioned......

These people protesting are completely forgetting the risk they pose to health care workers. Our doctors and nurses are working around the clock and can’t afford to have thousands more overwhelm the hospital system. Please stay home.

assclowns

C’mon . These protests are stoked, organized and financed by billionaire conservatives to provide exactly the kind of story you wrote here

Why gives these idiots anytime it’s all a plan from the republican stop highlighting stupidity

They should be forced to visit a hospital since they do not believe the gravity of the situation. Better yet, a nursing home

The End is bye.

Would they be fed up after losing a child? A family member? They will get back to work & be fed up with working! Sane Americans are fed up with ignorant ones! Especially the leader of the morons! TrumpMadness

Yeah....go get virus to kill u....otherwise u wouldn't know the pain....idiot

They’re making natural selection easier 🤣

Organized by Betsey Devos’s family foundation. Nice touch with the confederate flags.

Trump is supporting this so-called liberation movement against Democratic governors putting his ignorant base at risk for infections & apparently they’re too stupid to realize that! Now those idiots will infect others & it will take even longer to open states DUH

You folks at the WSJ are making a case that Trump/RNC MAGGATS did not orchestrate these sham protest. In my opinion, one could not directly tie them to the demonstrations, but a little investigative journalism could probably find conservative state allies doing Trump/RNC bidding.

And in a week a bunch of them will be sick.

They should give away codeine & phenobarbital near state capitols

'Some' Americans? Let's be more precise WSJ: Active ignorants ideological zealots; low information seniors; militant nihilists, cult members. Normal Americans, nearly 80% in a recent Pew poll, want the restrictions to stay in place.

There is no vaccine for Covid yet, nor is there one for stupidity.

Aww poor snowflakes!! Stay home - save lives! This is a war and these people are selfish cry babies!!

Yes, all of this disruption has been unnecessary- no new novel virus in our modern history has ever come close to the so called experts dire warnings. So many lives disrupted, 22MM new unemployment claims, constitution usurped, mini tyrants have claimed unconstitutional powers.

States taxes should pay for all economic damage caused by governor shut down decisions. Then the fear mongering will stop.

So they can die soon.

While we are at it can we get rid of all speed limits? Getting products to market even faster is worth the trade-off cost of a few thousand more traffic fatalities.

stay at home if you want to.

Have these protesters seen today’s numbers? MD hasn’t peaked yet. I’m good with staying home. Not in a hurry to die. Thank you GovLarryHogan for your leadership.

Is trump inciting an uprising with violence

A fraction of assholes came to protest and that represents America? I think you need to rephrase that headline.

In two weeks or so ,when they get sick maybe they will reflect on their stupidity .

Led by trumpie and the trumpettes. Hope they all get sick, every goddamned one of them.

They don't care about the probable deaths. They are selfish individuals.

Re open the courthouses. There are too many bad tenants and criminals taking advantage of this.

Charles Darwin at work here folks!

now this is a real conspiracy--all these groups funding seems to lead back to the white house in 1 way or another--isn't this of a criminal nature to expose people in the name of money

A few bozos and clowns.

Does anyone remember these? Anyone?

This flys in the face of those that say everybody will be cautious to return to the way things were. I can see a case for both sides though.

People get it. Stay home for a short while to “bend the curve” through a government (federal & state) induced recession. But draconian measures that limit growing food & buying car seats, include brutality removing people from buses & then moving goalposts...no. CivilLiberties

Open it up now.

don't worry, they will weed themselves out soon enough. Stay home, Stay safe people. don't be part of that herd.

Dangerous cowards

Who let the dogs out? Trump, Trump, Trump Covid_19 StayAtHome

MAGA is out to play...no rallies so they are bored and do this instead. I hope no one gets sick and dies.

If the President believes so much in this movement let him come hand shake their hands.

Are you people spying on me?

Let them all gather. Let them all high five. Let them go back to work. Make them all work together. Then let them all go to rallies for their favorite person. Ask yourselves where are yo going to go to work if your business is closed? Some places r going 2 be afraid of reopening

All the millions of people that don’t die from the flu each year are just really really lucky I guess

I trust all of these Impatient people will stay the hell in their own benighted states and don't spread this dreaded virus to those of us who would rather be safe than sorry.

For fairness - if someone wants to end the lockout they sign a waiver prior to reentering society stating if they test for COVID19 they waive their ability to receive medical care and must be on house arrest until they negative test. Then see how many want to roll the dice.

Or maybe they need to get back to work so their family has a place to live and food to eat.

you might want to point out that at least some of these 'protests' were orchestrated by and paid for by deep-pocketed Trump cronies.

These the photos I been seeing. I know is owned by FoxNews 😂😂😂

These fools remind me of drunk drivers. The drunk usually crosses the center line and crashes head on with a car following every law and rule of the road. The drunk usually has minor injuries and the family of 4 in the other car are killed.

Governments can choose to lead by beginning to ease restrictions, or they can follow as more and more people simply refuse to obey them.

Wow, you people are quaking in your boots over something you don’t understand...too bad some of you vote and breed

Ok to push back, but please to put masks on. Fight for your rights is one thing, stay safe is another.

Those who have chosen to ignore shelter at home orders are starting to see spikes in the spread of the disease.

The private sector does not have a right to put people's life at risk over corp profits. Employers know the consequences of prematurely reopening the economy. American workers and their families will file lawsuits and bankrupt them all. With that said, God bless America!

Let them. If they get sick they should be denied medical care. If they get anyone sick charge them with wreckless endangerment.

So ironic that the GOP has coalesced into a protect White Power Party. And now they are going to Jim Jones, 2% of that shrinking demographic.

And they will blame the government for a second shut down from these actions. 🙄

You can’t fake or BS science (sorry to the dopey orange clown President). Darwinism will take care of these folks.

Take notice his white base !!

This is a garbage headline. They are violating executive orders and ignoring advice of medical experts endangering everyone else.

Oh, the irony. Fact ppl that can't follow simple orders are difficult employees.

Let’s check back in 5-14 days

It’s only going to get worse.

Let them have at it but when they cant breathe, hook them up to a ventilator at there job and let they ass die there with pictures of today.

These idiots should be denied Covid-19 medical care.
