  1. Poor doc s been getting more and more frustrated w the situation across the country. I feel for the guy

  2. If these happen, expect protests across the state (as they were in Florida) as thousands of Kerens will take to the streets and be led by the Queen of All Kerens, the Greatest of All Trump

  3. by fall our healthcare system will have collapsed and be unable to handle a second wave fantastic job republicans DYING HUGELY

    1. Sadly this can happen.If tRump had responded sooner and medical supplies we may have saved more people.tRump needs to be charged with treason and abuse of power.He has blood on his hands.stay safe.✌

    2. @Penny Sutch One life sentence for every american that died from covid, for him, and everyone that allowed him.

    3. @Penny Sutch He should have met with Nancy Pelosi in San Francisco’s Chinatown in late March when she proclaimed how safe everything was.

  4. Medical Experts: The most effective thing we can do to slow the spread is to wear masks.
    Economic Experts: We’re not going to get people back to work until we can slow the spread of the corona.
    Normal people: I’ll wear a mask to protect myself and others.
    t’rump idiots: **wahhh** But I don’t wanna wear a mask!! It makes me look stupid!!
    Everyone: Umm, it’s not the masks doing that. 🙄 😂🤣

    1. @frictionRx9 Erasing our lessons learned from history is, the rest is able to be dealt with reasonably.

    2. @Shawn Corbin That has only place in museums, by having public statues you legitimize neo-nazi groups

    3. I’d like to have some bat wings for dinner and none of those GMO covid-19 bat crap, I want fresh organic bats any suggestions

    4. Last I heard, the “experts” said masks did no good…. What’s next “experts”…. Voting for Trump will automatically give you Covid and death?

    5. @SinBae No you teach history, Lords know the “schools” nowadays teach nothing at all about it.

    1. @Jay Gibson Nothing happened because nothing happened? Again a bot trying to shift attention to something unrelated, explain to me how did trump killed more americans than imperial germany did

  5. No to government mandate of masks.thr chambers of commerce should come together and mandate them in their places of business. It’s effectly a mask requirement without Governnent overstepping. Work with your business communities

  6. Isn’t it so f….d up that you have to make rules to save people because they lack the common sense to save themselves. Are humans a race of idiots.?

    1. Last I heard, the “experts” said masks did no good…. What’s next “experts”…. Voting for Trump will automatically give you Covid and death?

    2. Isn’t it F
      ed up when blacks are treating this whole thing like a giant vacation and not listening to anyone?

  7. And just think, this could all be avoided if grown adults would just act like grown adults, instead of petulant children.

    1. Trump’s words and behavior are really quite consistent.

      As far as confronting problems, he sees himself as a great, if not the world’s greatest, “counter-puncher.“. He will hit you 10 times harden than you hit him.

      He does know how to “counter-punch” pretty good, but he’s got a “glass jaw.” He’s good at striking out, at belittling, but if you get him good, he’s like Scott Farkus or his toady, Grover Dill. They really get walloped, and they cry to tell their mother. Or their “base”.

      So, COVID-19 struck the country hard. Trump’s predilection is not to hunker down, but to somehow directly bully the virus into submission.

      Maybe that’s by denying the existence of the threat. And so, he wears no mask. Maybe he thinks by insulting the virus by calling it “Kung Flu” or Chy-navirus” that it will go away in humiliation.

      COVID-19, like Honey Badger, don’t care.

      The virus is not a problem for a Superman like him. And if you support and believe in him, you will be under the protection of his tent. Wonderful magical thinking.

      He also decided that he knows more than the doctors.

      We just need to let the virus “burn through” the population, as he asked Dr. Fauci about earlier. Dr. Fauci told him 2 million might die. Trump’s response was-we’ll wait a few weeks, and by Easter, it will go away.

      Well, with his impatience and belief in his intellectual superiority, he kneecapped Fauci and took over the briefings.

      He is going to let the virus “burn through” the country. He doesn’t have enough patience to do otherwise. The pain for the nation allows for his counterpunch- the end of the virus.

      If he gets hurt, everybody gets hurt worse.
      If the economy isn’t improving punish America. Insult the virus. Ignore the virus.

      Maybe it worked with his ex-wives. I don’t know.

      And all the lies? He has never thought of them as lies. He merely gives the people what they want, right now. Or maybe giving himself what he wants, right now.

      Trump need not fear for a job. So long as Isuzu goes through with plans to return to America, he will serve as the new Joe Isuzu.

      Joe doesn’t lie. He just tells you what he thinks you want to hear. That’s our Trump!

    2. Last I heard, the “experts” said masks did no good…. What’s next “experts”…. Voting for Trump will automatically give you Covid and death?

    3. Freedom & Liberty Bot Well, if they weren’t really experts, why did you listen?

      Are you a sovereign citizen who decides his own destiny and need not cooperate with the needs of other Americans?

  8. Would be completely pointless. The death rate has declined since the only real threat from the Wuhan Virus was that it was new which has been over for weeks.

  9. *In Trump’s mind, those who wear masks . . . do it for the sole and only reason that they dislike him. There are no limits to how narcissistic and paranoid POTUS is. Trump = moronavirus.*

    1. Last I heard, the “experts” said masks did no good…. What’s next “experts”…. Voting for Trump will automatically give you Covid and death?

  10. “I am a patriot living in a free country, I am free to infect my fellow countrymen and -women with a deadly Virus because I don’t want to wear a mask or socially distance. It only kills old people, who cares anyway?”
    – Every Trumpet out there

  11. Californians became too comfortable. Look where they are where they are now!

  12. Buy the time everyone decides it’s bad it will be to late. Is there something more pathetic???

    1. NYC has had a voluntary mask on policy (except for stores) and it has not spiked, in fact going down and remaining low. Science. Brain. Thanks.

    2. Last I heard, the “experts” said masks did no good…. What’s next “experts”…. Voting for Trump will automatically give you Covid and death?

  13. It’s never too late . Time to send a message to the POTUS to go and fly kites at the golf course…

    1. The virus doesn’t care that you’re a moron, it will still use you as a vector to intelligent people.

  14. *Masks need to be breathable, comfortable, affordable and readily available; then just about everyone would be happy to wear them.*

  15. Last I heard, the “experts” said masks did no good…. What’s next “experts”…. Voting for Trump will automatically give you Covid and death?
