Rocket science realDonaldTrump

Trump wants you to believe forcing people off federal help by forcing shops to reopen will help the economy. But 85% of the country agree w/ the lockdown orders. No customers = layoffs, liquidations and bankruptcies. The small groups of protesters are demanding to be laid off

You would think Trump would have this kind of information at the ready for him...he's obviously not smart enough to figure it out himself.

A lot of them are...they’re that dumb. And selfish. Their governors have said, “It’a good now!”...And off they go.

Across US, a 'tale of two cities' as some embrace reopening amid coronavirus and others remain waryAmericans are slowly starting to leave their homes. “I’m not a fool, I’m not unsympathetic,” said one California restaurant owner. “But we can’t quarantine the healthy anymore.” But....How do you know who is healthy and who is not......if you're not testing? without extensive testing, this is all just 'whistling past the graveyard' foolhardy wishful thinking Be careful. From my experience on this hellscape called Twitter over the past few weeks, any suggestion whatsoever to reopen society is met by hordes of morons with no understanding of economics that think this needs to last forever. Otherwise YOU WANT PEOPLE TO DIE!!! Are asymptomatic carriers healthy? They look healthy. They feel healthy. They don't have a fever. They'll still infect you.
