Is this fake news also?

So, the President should overrule States ability to make their own rules..?? 😕

He said he was the wartime president and covid was the enemy. But then who pays much attention as the story changes from day to day and he seems to think the enemy will just go away without us having to do anything.

Got news for you... it's a virus. It ain't going away.

Its definitely here to stay.

Once a virus has mutated to human-human transmission, its not going away. It's achieved its purpose.

But trump said it would go away.

Recently

The data models are still trending towards around November 4 for it to go away.

Unless it's purpose was to mutate to porpoise-porpoise transmission.

I'm guessing that's a Tuesday

It’s a Wednesday. Election Day.

Like magicccccckkkkk

Someday we'll wake uppppppp...

And it will be gonnnne...

Cheeto the orange O.N.E. HAS SPOKEN...

It will be a Tuesday afternoon.
Most definitely...

Tuesday afternoon
I'm just beginning to see
Now I'm on my way
It doesn't matter to me
Chasing the clouds away
Something calls to me
The trees are drawing me near
I've got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh
I'm looking at myself reflections of my mind
It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind
So gently swaying through the fairyland of love
If you'll just come with me you'll see the beauty of
Tuesday afternoon
Tuesday afternoon
Tuesday afternoon
I'm just beginning to see
Now I'm on my way
It doesn't matter to me
Chasing the clouds away
Something calls to me
The trees are drawing me near
I've got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh

The data I've been looking at suggests the same thing. But until then, it's showing that millions of people will die and stuff.

If this is correct we'll take the credit for it. If it's wrong we'll just get a new model and if we scare people enough nobody will call BS about our first 10 models that were incorrect.

Interesting, one of the main points you cons wanted to talk about was the ruining of the economy. But crickets about the article. What? What's that? We could save a trillion if we all wore masks? Goldman Sachs is saying that? They are just talking about the economy?

Oh, better change the conversation. Lets see, complain about states rights. No, joke about the curve. And so it goes. Just exactly the response I expected from our cons.

Maybe by accident?
Or was it...
on porpoise?

Stealing.

Relax, the article gets its trillion dollar savings with the assumption that we’re going to lock down the economy again unless everyone wears a mask. We’re not shutting down again.

The title kinda says it all. A national mask mandate COULD save....it also could not. It also could stop the Martian attack. We’re getting a pretty heavy dose of this type of reporting these days.

But not from Forbes. And definatly not analytics from Goldman Sachs. If you believe the economy will not be shut down again you are not paying attention. Its happening in 20 states at last count to varying degrees. Also stop your nonsense. Masks work. If you would like to talk intelegently on that subject great. Why do you think blue states have lower infection rates? Though California is an outlier. I think there are reasons for this. George Floyd protests, and wall to wall people at beaches in California. You want to keep the economy as open as possible? Wear a mask. Everyone wear a mask. Some types of businesses are in serious trouble. No matter what is open or closed. The infection rates at those types of businesses is astronomical.

The economy is not shutting down again because the loss of tax revenue was too extreme the first time.

Blue states have lower infection rates because they wear masks and red states don’t. Well, except all those infections in California, New York, and New Jersey. NY and NJ also crushed everyone in deaths. If we count all those as outliers maybe blue states have lower infection rates.

California was the first state to shutdown and last to open. Most of the urban areas in California have been under mask orders for 3.5 months. When I hear all this “wear a mask” screaming going on I can’t even recall when we could not wear a mask (unless protesting and rioting).

Masks work. If everyone wore a mask for three weeks ‘Rona would cease to exist. OK, let’s just say masks may help reduce the spread. We released 25,000 jail and prison inmates in California because masks weren’t good enough to protect them from ‘Rona. It might be a bit more honest if we just said “masks might help with something. Masks aren’t going to hurt. We got nothing else to try. Try wearing a mask.”
