Re: Coronavirus (political)
You said who cares, I think plenty of people care that the President was slow to react to an impending pandemic and cost people their lives by doing so Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Coronavirus (political)
My comment was directed at all the pictures of Trump violating social distancing protocol. It had noting to do with anything else.

Re: Coronavirus (political)
I don't know about you but I would hope no one would use Trump of an example other than the poster child of what not to be. I have a feeling other than his children, the only respect he garners is due to the money and power he has.

Do you find it great that the media is high fiving that people are getting sick simply based on politics? When I look at the maps of infections and death rates should I be celebrating the deaths in Democratic run areas? What country do I live in, seriously

If you can't be critical of the Florida Governor claiming the WWE is an essential business then you are lost. |

Re: Coronavirus (political)
Dude, first off that pork plant would not have been affected by the shelter in place order...so whether the governor ordered it or not, the plant would have been open. That’s the operators call....nowhere in that article does that address that yuuuuuge fact. It’s a dishonest piece of reporting. It’s cherry picking

Re: Coronavirus (political)
No state has done things "perfectly", but clearly some have and continue to drop the ball more than others. Why is that a crime to point out? Florida had beaches full of people when other states were shutting down. Wrastling is deemed essential?

“The order that was signed on Thursday states that employees at professional sports and media production with a national audience can continue only if the location is closed to the general public. This essential service was added because it is critical to Florida's economy.” The order applies to other companies and organizations, not just WWE. If closed to the public and doing it due diligence... You know what’s the big deal? I think the beaches shoulda been closed to spring breakers though, that was dumb, but the young folks not only traveled to beaches, they traveled overseas to Europe, they traveled to NYC, they traveled all over the country...they made choice, parents didn’t step in...the ones who paid for most of them. Bad decisions abound. I know in this area, some of first people who tested positive was a senior came from Florida and spread it to a retirement home where it’s killed like 40 there, the First person who tested in my county where I was born was a college student who went to Europe spring break and the first police officer who test positive traveled to NYC and brought it back. People made choices

Is this just news because the Gov is a republican? Really who cares?

Re: Coronavirus (political)
It would appear at least so far, that the individual states so far who have launched their own task forces / groups dedicated to re-opening their states for business seem to be politically divided. It appears that Republican ran states are eager to re-open again and are waiting for guidance / advice from the federal gov't / CDC, etc...
Democrat controlled states seem to be pushing back and trying to stay shut down as long as possible. Take Ralph Northam for example, whose June 10th order is currently the longest in the USA. So it looks like there is going to be a big fight once again between Republicans and Democrats. This is one time that I hope the republicans win because i'm not sure how anyone thinks something good can come out of people being out of work until the end of the year / through next year, etc...

Re: Coronavirus (political)
There have been atrocious acts on both sides of the aisle. What about the governor of Rhode Island turning the national guard and police on out of state tourists? What about the governor of California spreading panic saying 25 million Californians would get sick? Obviously Trump is the worst of them all, it seems now he believes he can appoint himself dictator.
