  1. Solution: shutdown country, no one in or out, and test everyone three times by years end. Government must provide economic life support.

    1. How exactly do you expect the government to shut down the economy thus take in no tax revenue while at the same time supporting every business and citizen? Do you even know what inflation is? The government can’t print money endlessly.

  2. Sure let the government spy on you and track you down with your cellphone data and force you to quarantine. Sounds great

    1. I guess your that stupid you don’t realise how much information is all ready gathered by every company or government agency you come in contact with Luddite 🥴

    2. maxswp, How many people do you want to infect and MURDER while you snivel about quarantining?

    3. @frank hayles The difference is that private companies collect data you consented to in the 100 page terms and conditions you agreed to but never read. The government is specifically blocked from spying on people like this unless there is a warrant signed by a judge that specifically states what crime they are suspected of.

    1. We are sorry. In the New Normal you have been left out in the code.

      We spell it pry-vacy, as we pry vacancies to turn into fast real estate profits.
      We guarantee that if no-one wants to buy your house, we will, twice, if we have to.

  3. The Beast System coming to life, the all seeing eye of Lucifer. No where to run or hide.

    1. That’s a little extreme. Just stay away from people, they still your friends even if you don’t French kiss them. Be safe. Stay strong.

    2. @Thomas Rogers Trump is a form of judgement on the liberals.Remember anyone who is pro abortion and pro same gender marriage is 100 percent of the mind set of the Beast and is playing on team Satan.

    3. This end times battle is between God and Satan. Either you are on team Jesus or you are not. Sorry, no other way around it. Either you stand for truth and righteousness and God’s laws, statutes and ordinances or you don’t. In the end of it all, though many of us Christians will be killed, we will be the only ones, dead or alive still standing. Jesus himself will cast the tree of good and evil out of the garden and put an end to this madness.

  4. Just have a look at your government’s history of protecting privacy (eg. Patriot Act). How trustworthy is your government? Do the citizenry have a just cause for suspicion ?

    1. Such as yourself perhaps? Trolling ? I suspect…. no content , no profile info , just a derogatory comment. BLOCK , REPORT , IGNORE….

  5. Well we know that following the advice Donald is spewing has already resulted in *FAILURE* so this might not be that bad.

    1. @The Mean Liberal hilarious you cite a bias video as fact…typical. i assume you prefer cho mo Joe. Or the communist formerly known as Bernie. Gfy.

  6. No one is going to tell me to wear a f***ing Mask! Patriots dont get sick we get Stronger! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🍺
