that’s likely what’s gonna happen- he let on yesterday really that he was basically leaving it up to govs, and would be working closely with them to determine where hot spots might crop up, and what to do next-

Please allow me to piggyback on your thread:

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

Crazy Nancy Pelosi deleted this from her Twitter account. She wanted everyone to pack into Chinatown long after I closed the BORDER TO CHINA. Based on her statement, she is responsible for many deaths. She’s an incompetent, third-rate politician!

The only things locked down in my area are the closed businesses. The people have been ignoring the stay at home thing for some time. Traffic is really heavy today, people are all over the place and no one is wearing a mask.

Workers at the open businesses are annoyed because people are coming there just to walk around and let their kids run, they’ve already bought everything they need.

County pop: 146,000.
Cases: 35, 30 recovered, 3 in hospital, 2 at home.
Deaths: 0.

I understand low information voters believing that the government can just print all the money it feels like doing without any negative conseqences. Governors of a state in the USA should know better. Perhaps asking for 500 BILLION dollars is just a way of blaming PDJT when he doesn’t send it.

“Stick a fork in Ohio’s Mom and Pop businesses they’re cooked!!”

Sadly, politicians, and most of the general public have no idea what this is doing to small business. They think a business owner, regardless the size of the business, is just sitting on mountains of cash.

When unemployment goes through the roof and stays there, the public and their elected morons will be dumbfounded.

Yeah, this is going to get very ugly very fast. The Democrats and RINOs are looking for some kind Nazi revolution (only the tame businesses they can control) will operate. This is going to be war, I think. Red State / Blue State war.

“” I certainly hope it includes a way to neuter all of these Democrat Governors … “”

Amen. Trump should have all the Republican Governors open up their states. He should make a statement that if Democratic governors do not begin to open their states the voters should hold them accountable for financial damage to the state’s economy from this point forward. He should make a clear contrast for the American people to see. It could actually be a case, in a few months, of breadlines in Democrat controlled states verses prosperity in the Republican controlled states.

They are utterly clueless. That's why they think they can toss around mandates and regulations without consequence. I had the good fortune of working for a friend of mine while I was in college. He had a small landscaping business. It was basically me, him, and one of his old Army buddies. I learned a whole lot about what is involved in running a business from him. I remember being horrified when I learned that he was required to match my FICA contribution. His wife had just had a baby and I saw that money coming out of their child's mouth.

A lot of these political bozos have never even had a real JOB let alone run a business.

My fear is being realized it is going to turn into a red state/blue state thing.

Why is that a fear?

I would LOVE to get to the point in this country where the red states are recovering well and the blue states are bankrupt due to their own inept mismanagement.

Wait until they hear that the only restriction on the stimulus checks is that you can not spend it in a state with a Democrat Governor.

“Early on I had suspicions that the way this “pandemic” was playing out was simply a last-ditch attempt to keep President Trump from being re-elected.”

We’ve always believed that. The flu virus was real. The freak-out was to manipulate the election.

Neat idea, but red states can’t “recover well” with blue states in the dumper at the same time. Our economy is based on interstate commerce.
