I remember hearing how Pennsylvania would never ever go Red in a Presidential election.....Trump is a once in a lifetime leader.... And everything that’s happened during his 1st term has sowed the seeds for an unprecedented landslide re election...... I’m not guaranteeing he will win over 40 States.... but it’s a lot more likely than you think.... These Blue state governors are really doing everything in their power to make it happen......a lot of sh*t hitting the fan in coming months

Except the guy I refer to as Governor Dum Dum, Minnesota’s Governor Tim Walz is not upper reelection till 2022.

I do expect the Democrats in the State House to pay the price for him

It's a sizable percentage that need an authoritative figures to think for them. It's rather creepy.

After the failed lock downs of the Spanish flu it was taught in med school to NOT lock down the healthy. Why are they doing the opposite of what traditional medicine teaches is what I'm not following yet.

BS, the Polls in those States show the Sheeple support their Masters telling them what to do and how to live.

Unlike the 1930’s Depression, they are not doing without. The Government has told them that they don’t have to pay their Rent because they cant be Evicted. They just call everyone they owe money to and say I can’t pay it, whether they can or not.

They still get paid, in some cases making more than when they are actually working or they get to work out of the Homes. There are no real shortages of Food and Supplies.

Last but not least, they can just blame POTUS Trump for this, not the Chinese Communist Government or their own Governors.

They think that Electing a Rat in November will solve all their problems. Don’t doubt me.

From what I’ve read and from what I’ve seen a significant number of people are truly fearful of re-opening America and support the continued lockdown by the governors (who continue to blame the virus for what they have caused by their overreaction and tyrannical instincts). A very sad fact indeed.

I think I generally irk so many with my pessimism and half empty glass but I think the GOP is in serious trouble and the “blue” states are making a calculated strategic play of socialism and science works and look what Trump/capitalism has done. Anyone who wants out of “lock down” are absolutely torched as “deniers” as the left and whore media is purposely dividing and scaring people.

Trump’s move to allow state control of lockdown initiatives is very shrewd...

There’s no better spotlight on leftism and fascism than what Democratic-led states have been doing (with the exception of perhaps Ohio). This may be just enough of a push to pull an appreciable number of independent and right minded leftists to either sit out the election or vote for candidates who believe in our constitutional rights.

I know several left-leaning friends and family members in Michigan who are beside themselves over Whitless’s house arrest orders. I wonder if they’ll remember all of this come November...

History repeats itself, and those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat old mistakes. Unless that traditional medicine came from an overly expensive government study the new leadership doesn't want to believe it.

Eventually our society will reach the point where some democrat wants to invest in signs that say "Come in from the rain." In 37 languages.

Blue state lockdowns are incredibly popular. 80% like it in Oregon.

Stuffing infected people into nursing homes was even worse.

The term, “Quality Of Life” needs to be brought into the equation when discussing lockdowns. It’s a term the FDA is anal about. Use it against Fauci and the other Control Freaks. Quality Of Life is suffering, in many ways, current and future.

Have seen that, too. Pathetic losers.

After watching the criminal spectacle the lying Communist and Democrats have put on the past 4 years, I’ll be marking my ballot for Trump with a 5 pound hammer and steel punch.

That is the thing. it shouldn't be repeating. The medical term for vaccine is immunization.

Assuming it an uncontaminated virtual spread (over 1% of the population.) If there is no antibody available for distribution then it's well established that getting the virus early is the best course.

This report by the CDC written in 2006 which backs the concept of immunization in early stages. saying, " ( lower death rates) findings consistent with previously acquired protective immunity caused by an identical or closely related viral protein to which older persons had once been exposed"
https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/12/1/pdfs/05-0979.pdf

They're going against their own guidelines which suggest a political motive.

My Republican governor Bill Lee of TN went too far.

I’m in Tennessee, too. I agree. He treated the whole state as if it was Nashville.
