Austin, TX Mayor: ‘It’s Really, Really Hard’ To See Businesses Suffer | Stephanie Ruhle | MSNBC
Austin: an oasis of culture and sanity in the state of Ted Cruz
Testing, tracing and isolating!!! And EVERYONE should be WEARING a mask or NO service!!!
Austin is great. I want to move there!
only Americans seems not to understand how deadly this virus is.
@The Tweatles so.
Do you have control to be left handed?
Do you have control over mind preferences of food you like?
@Brother Sanguinary dude, just stop it. Granted I know this is an unknown and deadly virus but most people who are infected are asymptomatic plus I’ve been working everyday since this pandemic started. It’s called self responsibility and following guidelines. If you’re feeling sick or you’re paranoid, then you have all the power to stay inside all you want. That people need to feed their families and healthy people should go out and start this economy back up. A Great Depression will probably be worse than this pandemic. Healthcare is not free actually cost money to produce medicine…
.03%…..scamdemic…to install communism.
Some do but most don’t give a s**t.Self self selfish.

isn’t it great when some halfwit, some dimwit, some dolt, some dunce, some dullard, some dumbbell like YOU finds something to fit their little preconceptions, their petty little uniformed prejudices, their stupid idiotic misconceptions of the entire world.
Not as hard as watching someone drown because of fluid in their lungs I guess.
@Gunner Patry I don’t support Trump.
@Gunner Patry So, nothing to prove your claims.
@Drake Fire Sure you do…
@Drake Fire Department of Justice documents go read them 👌…
@Drake Fire Unmasking its law broken by the criminal cabal you support…
Hard to see buisnesses suffer…. 82k people are dead.
In how many weeks? I forget.
“We have to watch the numbers and see.”
Translation: We don’t have it under control using testing, contact tracing and isolation so we will use the people as guinea pigs.
What would you do in this fellow’s situation? Little or no help from trump and his corrupt cronies in the federal government. Seems like his in a real bind to me.
@tanon i dont care about him. As you said, trump is the problem. The 100%failed gop government is the problem. We should be getting steady checks from Washington until it’s SAFE to go back to work
tanon First I wouldn’t shed tears for the economy when people are dying. Second I keep people as isolated as possible as long as possible. Doing the right the thing for the good of other even though it hurts you in the end. That’s called Leadership.
‘It’s Really, Really Hard’ To See Businesses Suffer, and ‘It’s Really, Really Hard’ To See the horror of dead bodies.
Oh yeah. Those dead bodies that are just piling up in the streets.
It isn’t hard for families to watch their lives ones die on ventilator.
They don’t get to be present in the ICU
Oh you are a heartless inhuman monster. Gotta see someone struggle and die to feel the anguish?
Camera on, masks on.
Camera off, masks off.
These small businesses as well as all businesses and the economy in general is in shambles because of one person who mishandled this corona virus issue from the beginning. He could have had some control of if had he only listened to the warnings. But No. He was too busy lying misleading people into a false sense of security. Having rallies in front of his brain dead disciples who are too stupid to know better. Then end result. In just 2.5 months over 80 thousand people have died in America. People are still getting sick and dying. That’s his interpretation of having it under control. America, you are your own worst enemy for putting a moron in charge of once the greatest country in the world.
@Max Larkin Yeap, now you are starting to understand it.
@Rudolf yeah trump. He was so afraid of losing pressies unemployment numbers and let the country sick
@Sylvester Woodest And when on January 31st he stopped flights from China (except for US citizens)…he was called xenophobic, racist etc . And while Democrats throughout February paraded through downtown New York and San Fransisco inviting everyone to come on down have dinner have fun….they still called him a racist while he stopped flights from Europe. Now these same charlatans, like you, say he didn’t do it soon enough. Later they demand he shuts down the economy. Now these same no good dog faced pony soldiers blame him for doing so.
@Rudolf I live in New York NOTHING WAS CLOSE ON JANUARY. AND FEBRUARY. Trump was afraid of losing his numbers
@Rudolf NOT TRUE. THE FLIGHTS FROM CHINA WERE LANDING ON JFK EVEN IN MARCH
“As complete and accurate data,” someone gets it. Too bad the President doesn’t
It’s really,really hard to hear about so many people dying😔
You’ll be added to the list if you don’t follow whats right.
10,000 plus in 7 days. For these guys having 1/3 of the total deaths from this virus in the f**king WORLD doesn’t tell them anything.
Trump and his corrupt administration are guilty of genocide.
Neo-Soviet propaganda. The democrat party learned it from Stalin in the 1930’s and you are good at it.
Queen Elizabeth is guilty of genocide.
If we had a real president, the U.S. could’ve been better prepared
‘It’s really hard to see businesses struggling’ this is very true.
It’s much HARDER to work in the ICU, frantically working to help them but mostly just watching as people die…there will be plenty of work in the medical fields.
The sad thing is that this is a virus that the human species has no immunity from.
The cases a that emerge are not second waves, they are the continuation of the first wave.
The mitigation efforts of masks and tracing, stay at home actions have reduced the HEIGHT of the virus tidal wave, but Tidal waves are deceiving. Waves as we commonly see them recede quickly. The tidal wave keeps flowing inland because the volume of the entire ocean is behind it.
The East and West coasts of the US the first major outbreaks, but the wave flows inland to the heartland.
The people with no natural immunity are the LOW LANDS, ripe for inundation. Mediation efforts are like safety boats to keep the spread at bay so as to not overwhelm the emergency rooms.
Opening up is only possible when people are disciplined. So not very likely for americans since they have no discipline.
No shirt, No shoes, No service. No mask, No service.
Make it law that way everyone has to wear protective gear no matter what the potus has to say fake presidents dont get a chance to say anything at all
Stay home if you wish; “66% of NY coronavirus cases were people who were staying home” – Andrew Cuomo
Democrats: ‘Keep America shut down, locked down-in and locked up. We have the media to support us to win the White House! Blame Trump! And, on to November!’
Went to taco bell in lakeway, tx. yesterday and they were not wearing masks, no respect for themselves or customers, I won’t be patronizing them anymore.
