No on the convention and yes on opening schools. Mariano Rivera was there and now they are going outside to hit balls with Little Leaguers. POTUS is throwing out the first pitch at the Yankee game on Aug. 15th.
Thanks! I had it on while eating, but I forgot half of what happened. Sad to hear about the convention because Jacksonville really would have benefitted from the economic activity.
Jacksonville is something of a hot spot. He also mentioned safety about 6 times, as in safety for the people.
I’m wondering if he was thinking about the optics of gathering a huge group together when the national consensus, right or wrong, is that it’s a bad idea to gather when the Rona is around. Even if the numbers are generally 50% lies or more.
Also, in my own mind, there may have been some serious security issues that he didn’t want to bring to Jacksonville. He’s certainly on top of the latest intel in that respect.
Guess I'd better spend more time responding, 'cause I certainly read your posts.
And enjoy them. You make sense and don't do text walls.
President Trump, after moving the convention to Jacksonville FL from Charlotte NC To have a “full convention,” just canceled it: “it’s not the right time ... I told my team it’s time to cancel the Jacksonville component”
A final straw was the sheriff saying it couldn’t be done👇 https://t.co/e49iHvnHPP— Marc Caputo (@MarcACaputo) July 23, 2020
NEWS: Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams says he can’t pull off security at the Republican convention because the plans aren’t clear, funding is a challenge, time is running short & he can’t get enough officers to help out. https://t.co/liIkiHbq2q— Marc Caputo (@MarcACaputo) July 20, 2020
Wow! Ring of fire is lighting up in Alaska since the 7.8 earthquake. Energy is building. Will it affect the West Coast?

About one of the covid/WuhanVirus vaccines from the previous thread...
Biblical... maybe.
Bob, I read all the posts on the thread but I almost never make an acknowledgement, mainly because bu the time I get caught the conversation has moved on.know that your posts are read by probably everyone here and appreciated.
I am just whining. My GI DR threw a big curve at me and Sat I have to be prepared for an EGD and a colonoscopy. Spent all day running around getting things done. Worn out... sorry for the whine. :)
Thank you. My laptop is being weird with videos again, so didn’t listen.
Just a whine after a real crushing day. Thanks - and sorry.
Oh ick. What’s an EGD? I hope all results are a-okay.
Thank you.
:)
This has been a crushing year in many ways.
I read your posts. I read just about everyone’s posts.
