We need to eliminate the infection threatening the country,

Not the coronavirus. As serious as the coronavirus is, the most dangerous infection is spreading out from the White House, and the GOP Congressmembers.

It is the infection of ignorance, and greed, and bigotry, and misogyny. Trump is the most abhorrent outbreak, but he is joined by so many others.

The cure is to vote in November, and vote in such numbers that no amount of GOP cheating can overcome.

You can be sure they will try every dirty trick in the book to steal the election.
History speaks for itself.

Because if you are a con you dont believe in science and if your leader, the dumbest man alive, tells you to ignore the science, you do.

When will we need to close our borders to anyone from a state that refuses to grow up? Now, I say, if you are in a grown up state, now is the time.

Is he trying to attack his own base? Similar to Jerry Falwell Jr., who wants to reopen Liberty University. He would be exposing his own base among the evangelicals.

...the pity he will wring out of this if he gets COVID19? He will become the victim-in-chief and the sympathy will swell for him. lets all hope he stays coronavirus-free.

Doesn't matter if it's state, local, or national, treat them as if they are the enemy. Yeah that sounds extreme, but we need that to fight them.

In my view, a combination of Fox propaganda, and an educational system that prioritizes memorization of selected memes rather than critical thinking.

Many history books are written to please the Texas market, and what results is not really history, but a very right wing narrative.

And that "America first, America best" narrative is a large part of the problem.
