If we're going back to work by Easter, why are we wrecking our free market system now?
"If" indeed… Michael Kane does Rudyard Kipling, and does it rather well

“We”, or Donald Trump?
Trump was smart not to straight up confront the hysteria. It would be like trying to block stampeding cattle. That is what the media expected and wanted.
Instead he is using this crisis to be “presidential”. The media is trapped. The more effort they put into fanning the flames to make Trump look bad, the more opportunities they give him to look presidential and competent.
He isn’t falling on his sword the way republicans usually do for the media, and they have no answer for that.
In the real world this is all perfectly rediculous and Trump knows it. He is even saying it just from alongside the stampede rather than in front of it.
We won’t be back up by Easter because the underlying condition will not allow it. The people are choosing their safety over their livelihood, and they will continue to do so until they can longer put food on the table or take care of other basic needs. That has been staved off for a little while - a month or two - by this printed money package. That will only probably work once because by the time a second is needed, the supply chain for basic necessities will likely have collapsed. Eventually, safety will be overcome by more basic needs...but it isn’t now.
You can thank your lucky stars that Massie is widely seen as a ridiculous fool by Republican voters and his own colleagues...because if his way held and the nation survived until November, you’d have Democrat president, 60-some Democrat senators and somewhere close to 400 Democrat House members.
