Do you want to argue about this for a couple months or do you want the checks in the mail?

Heard this today, 10 NBA players have it out of about 120 tested, 8%. Think they are just overexposed or do/did 25 million people in the U.S. have it already?

Didn’t mean for you to take it personal. Words I never thought I’d say but I agree with Mitch O ‘Connell on this “ We can’t let perfect become the enemy of good”

Most People with Coronavirus Experience Only Mild Symptoms - CNN

To summarize:

- The worst has already passed in China.

- 80% of those who contract the disease experience only mild symptoms or no symptoms at all.

- The mortality rate for those under 40 is 0.2%.

- No one under the age of 9 has died.

- If you are over 80 and have existing health problems, there’s a 10% chance it will kill you.

- Transmission rates in the US are still only ncreasing linearly and not exponentially, which is FANTASTIC NEWS. (Especially given that 60+% of Americans have admitted to pollers that they have still be going out and not cancelling large event plans.)

Trump Quotes:

- January, 2020 – “we have the virus totally under control”
- February, 2020 – “we shut the virus down”
- February, 2020 – “by April, it MIRACULOUSLY goes away”
- February, 2020 – “we are very close to a vaccine”
- February, 2020 – “we are going very SUBSTANTIALLY DOWN…. not up in cases”
- February, 2020 – “one day its like a MIRACLE it will just disappear”
- February, 2020 – “this is their new HOAX”
- February, 2020 – “the Coronavirus is a HOAX”
- March, 2020 – “the number of US infected is way under 1%”
- March, 2020 – Trump tweets that the Coronavirus is “less deadly than the Flu”
- Dr. Anthony Fauci almost immediately contradicts him and says, quote “it is 10x more deadly than the Flu”
- March, 2020 – “anybody that wants a Test can get a test”
- March, 2020 – “the tests are all perfect”
- March, 2020 – “we have tremendous control over the virus”

After these statements coupled with Trump's lack of preparedness (lack of testing, lack of test kits, short supplies for citizens, short supplies for first responders and medical personnel, Trump administration’s dismantling the government’s pandemic response team a few years prior to all of this, etc., etc. - Trump basically starting from scratch to address this AFTER the virus arrived although we all knew it was coming FOR MONTHS)…. In light of all this, in light of his quotes, and in light of what we now know about Senators selling off stock ahead of the onslaught of this pandemic, we should all be demanding to see the Trump family stock transactions within the past 4 or 5 months.

Was Trump really as DUMB as the quotes above show that he was? Or was he just laying the foundation for him and his family to make an incredible amount of money off of this pandemic?

McConnell going w/ a bill in the Senate to give small businesses of 500 employees or less a loan of up to $10 million to make payroll.

If you don't lay-off anyone in four months, the loan is forgiven completely. Interesting idea; and any small business owner can apply and receive funding within one-week.

Why just Trump? Would hold more weight if you ask for all politicians
