Gov. Phil Murphy (D-N.J.) said on Sunday that his state will need to "learn how to live" with the COVID-19 pandemic.

"We're not going to manage this to zero. We have to learn how to live with this," Murphy said of the pandemic on NBC's "Meet the Press."

Does this mean masks and restrictions every winter or dropping everything?? I'm thinking he wants the first part because he doesn't want to get rid of the power.

Murphy’s Law: Anything that can go wrong, will be mandated by Murphy.

...until he’s almost booted from office and decides to renege.

Stage 2 in this is “managing the virus”, meaning in bureaucrat-speak, the state throttles the narrative to suit their needs in command and control of your liberties.

What I found the saddest is that Rino Republicans are more scared of Covid than any other group.

80 percent of independents
74 percent of Democrats
72 percent of Republicans - goddamned RINOs.

Wait! WTAF? Okay, someone must be punking Jerseyites. What did you do with the real Phil Murphy? Did duh-blah-zero drop Jersey Phil on his head too?

Corollary to Murphy's Law:

"And At The Worst Possible Moment"

Murphy says it's time for New Jersey to 'learn how to live' with tyranny.

I don't believe your numbers. It's quite the opposite.

Monday, December 20, 2021
Surveys have shown partisan divisions in opinions about the coronavirus ever since the pandemic emerged in early 2020. Far more Democrats (77%) than Republicans (45%) are now concerned about new COVID-19 variants. Those totals include 42% of Democrats who say they’re Very Concerned about new variants of the virus, compared to just 18% of Republicans. Among those unaffiliated with either major party, 50% are concerned about new COVID-19 variants, including 22% who are Very Concerned.

My inlaws in NJ do not want us to visit as we are not vaccinated. “We have to protect ourselves”. They are all vaccinated.

I still don’t understand how if they are vaccinated we are any threat to them?

“Let bygones be bygones”?

Not until the women and men responsible for government’s two year reign of covid terror are held accountable.

Good point. We need to realize these people don’t think like us.
Absurd though it may seem he might want to tighten the screws and push for more draconian mandates. Hearing from him directly would clear up the mystery….except, of course that I’d have to watch Meet the Press.

The process will be accelerated when New Jersians first learn to live without Murphy.

I get that from relatives as well.

Since the vaxxed are more likely to spread Covid than the unvaxxed, it is they that would put me at risk of sniffles.

I don’t blame living NJ residents for Murphy.

It is the cemetery vote that he dug up for the win.

You are right on target. Unless we put a stop to it, masks will be used as a tool of control forever.

As another Freeper pointed out:

It is a fact that people have died from the shot, and that people who have had the shots have died. The virus can be deadly, but the alternatives are not risk free. But that information has been kept from us until recently.

We all should have the opportunity to weight the risks for ourselves. Instead, we were lied to and strongly ‘encouraged’ to submit.

Is this freedom?

Obviously they know the vaccines don’t work.

Fortunately even a horrible governor like Murphy can look across the Hudson River to NYC and realize the impact is devastating - and probably permanent. We’re already hurting; Governor Christie slowed but never stopped the bleeding, and it accelerated under Murphy pre-COVID because the economy here is so unfriendly to business.

You're being rational; ergo, you're wasting your time with any Branch Covidians.

(It's kind of like walking into a bar after midnight; almost everyone else is under the influence of alcohol to some extent, so nothing they say will make much sense to you.)

In a pandemic, you are safer being surrounded by those who hate your guts.
