Goin to the chapel and were
Goin to sit inside this time
Goin to the chapel and pew

Masks we’ll wear
Do distancing there
No more drive in sermons
We sit near friends

Lord we really love you and were
goin to go worship your name
Goin to the chapel and pew...

Reading the article, he’s having it both/all ways.

Expert at platitudes.

The bully pulpit is better.

Actually, I want to see more acts of tyranny by RAT governors and big-city mayors.

Short-term pain, long-term liberation. Sooner or later, even a portion of the low-info voters will get the message.

Of course, the RAT base is built upon narcissistic elites, and their willing dupes. Those we can never reach.

Lets see DEMOCRAP PUKE swing state governors defy Trump. This will lead to more voting for Trump in November. Michigan is a good test case with loony evil whitchy female Governor and the loony lesbo loudmouth Attorney General.

If anyone missed this press conference go and find the replay. It was one for the ages!

Started with this announcement and ended with Kaleigh ripping the press to shreds over the Flynn case.

Sandwiched around Dr. Birx. torturing them with indecipherable data slides.

President announced that churches are now essential and will be open. I guess that means the ballparks are going to be full again. That is church for 90% of the country.

And if Trump can force them to open churches, he can force them to open ANYTHING.

The administration can take the governors to court.

If that happens, the governors will ultimately lose.

Trump gave them the opportunity to wise up.

The governors refused.

Now they comply, or they will be forced to do it by the courts.

Trump KNOWS no Governor wants to actually wind up in court arguing that churches should remain closed.

Got ‘em by the shorthairs with this one.

Good.

This tyranny and madness must end. Thank God for President Trump and the sane governors that we have.

The decision at this link lays out the case the administration would likely make...

For Easter, a federal judge wrote a luminous decision defending religious liberty

“But now is the time, depending upon where you are and what your situation is, to begin to seriously look at reopening the economy, reopening the country to try to get back to some degree of normal.”

He's quite skilled at predicting the past.

Had to wear one in a greenhouse today. (Had to keep pulling it down anyway) That was two hours ago and I still feel ill. I cannot breathe in greenhouses WITHOUT a mask on.
