Yup. As I said he’s delivering the message Pence and his task force failed to deliver in March.

We’ve yet to invent a vaccine against any coronavirus. Herd immunity is the answer, with theraputics and prophylactics like HCQ for those most exposed.

One thing I’d be interested in knowing is what Meadows (and, by extension, the White House) mean by “other mitigation efforts”. Does he mean wearing masks (which DON’T WORK) is going to be a “forever” thing?

Please don’t get me wrong; I don’t want to look like a single-issue type. But it bothers me to see photos of a masked Pres. Trump and the First Lady. Why wear them at all, now that he’s had (and beaten) the Dreaded Death Plague?

Guess the answer will be seen after the election. Hopefully the masks will disappear as quickly as the grossly inflated “case” totals, beginning Nov. 4.

That explains the Dems ‘platform’, perfectly.

We need to stop calling this far from lethal illness a pandemic.

Pence mistakenly catered to the whims of Fauci-the-fraud a lot-probably why pres Trump quietly and gradually removed Fauci from the spotlight and put his own choice of docs there instead-Fauci obviously has the rat’s ass over that, running to a camera to complain every chance he gets-egotistical little troll...

I agree this was a very poor choice of words one week before the election. I think it’s a gaffe, even.

What “suburban women” do want to hear is just a tad more concern about it from the Trump admin—even if it is not true, a phrase such as “we are going to control the pandemic by careful measures and reopening everything SAFELY” is much better than a cavalier “we aren’t going to control the pandemic”. They love that word SAFELY even if it only really means more recommended handwashing in actuality.

Yup. Pence let himself get bogged down in the minutia of PPE supply chains when Job #1 was message control.

I know a couple of people who got the virus way back in April and yet STILL they are forced to wear masks for zero reason now.

Funny how the left points to Sweden as a model for what socialism can be and wants to emulate it, except when it comes to COVID.

Yup[. The lockstep MSM railed against the Swedish approach of going for herd immunity and just protecting the vulnerable. Their plan worked, so naturally the MSM now ignores their success.

Democrats aren’t intelligent enough to understand his comments about controlling the epidemic with treatment, vaccines etc...

Those that are, are not honest enough to not demagogue.

“Meadows then went on to suggest that former Vice President Joe Biden wants to quarantine the country.

Tapper said, “nobody is saying that.””

Joe Biden is saying it. He wants people to be required legally to wear masks on the friggin’ interstate FCOL.

Yikes! That’s not good. State mandate? City/town mandate? What state do they live in, if you don’t mind my asking?

Those are suburban Karens-weak sisters-I’m a country woman-no suburbs, thanks-but none of the women I know out here are hiding, masking or living indoors any more than usual-my own cub is a suburban woman who teaches at a private school-yes, that school is open for business, my cub is teaching in the classroom and she’s no Karen, either-I’m tired of catering to these whining, pearl clutching weak sisters-they need a boot in the ass to knock some sense into them...
