Vice President Mike Pence said Thursday that he thinks the coronavirus pandemic could "largely" be "behind us” by Memorial Day Weekend.

“Am I going to be on my boat and fishing in early June, Mr. Vice President?” Fox News’ Geraldo Rivera asked Pence on his radio show.

“If you look at the trends today, I think by Memorial Day Weekend we will largely have this coronavirus epidemic behind us,” said Pence, who is chair of the White House coronavirus task force. “State and local officials will begin to reopen activities, you’re going to see states ahead here begin to do that.”

Trump is not getting good advice from his people. He has DC tunnel vision. Somebody needs to drag him away from that daily microphone, put him on a bus and tour the countryside... get some real feedback...not politician feedback.
We, as an American society accept the yearly deaths of the seasonal flu, so much so that we don’t even give it a second thought. We have a vaccine for the flu yet thousands upon thousands die every year in this country. We give it zero thought.
Now comes coronavirus...its on our radar and we’re working on the problem, but we don’t stop living because of it. Its not a pandemic, its controllable.

To think that a feckin flu would end a constitutional republic in less than a month is bone jarring to say the least. At least I got to spend over half my life as a somewhat free man.

My a-hole guv Smurphy of NJ says he is thinking about Memorial Day which means NO Memorial Day weekend and a huge chunk of the NJ shore economy.

I agree Trump really screwed up on this. Poorly handled by him. Could have been a better leader.

Because the goalposts have been moved. It’s no longer about that, because that didn’t work......

What will we be left with by then, though. Why doens’t anyone ever talk about THAT?

Somebody IS talking about these moving goalposts....and, what will happen if we keep allowing them to get away with this.
