They gave us a head start and made it easy for us to find supplies in the stores. While their audience was laughing at us, we were stocking up.

(13,620 posts)got real. Out of nowhere it's all of a sudden a national emergency, cases are breaking out everywhere,and the stores are being mobbed. Many of them could have no idea that was coming because they get their information from FOX "News" and believe what Trump tells them.
That was probably really rough on some of them. How many seniors suddenly found themselves in real difficulty for getting to the store and getting what they need? I've known quite a few that still do okay shopping for themselves, but they go to a store that's an easy drive for them when it's not busy. Trump and FOX had them forced to go into a mob to get what they could if they were lucky.
I'd bet many of the Trumper FOX viewers were the worst hoarders once the panic hit them. I put a post up a few days ago asking who got out and stocked up early and got quite a few responses. Like most of my well informed local friends,quite a few knew what might be coming and were out loading up a week or more before the hoarding started.

We need to keep pointing out their flaws until FoxNews is small enough to drown in a bathtub.
