Coronavirus (political)

[SolidSnake84]

Well, Fauci just said yesterday in an article in the USA Today, that he has advised President Trump to not open the country again until there has been a period of time where there are no new cases, and no new daily deaths.

So that right there should pump the brakes on anybody thinking that the USA opens up again this year. No new deaths and no new cases, if that is the criteria Trump uses, we could see the USA shut down completely for years until there is a vaccine developed....

Idw talk down to you SS24, but the difference between Fauci and Trump is one is a highly respected and educated doctor with a long and distinguished career in public service, and the other is Trump (out of civility I declined to list all of the terrible things I think about him). Fauci's priority is trying to limit the damage to human life, and Trump's priority is trying to limit the damage to the economy, because that's his primary reelection priority.

I put less than 0% probability Trump actually does this unless we get a month or two down the road and the numbers are so bad Trump is forced to come around (like January, when the 'Rona was no biggie in Trump's world, and now, when it's a pandemic).

Don't worry, i am not supporting Donald Trump in the least. I also was not trying to compare the two or put them on equal footing. I also say we don't have to worry about an election this year, I can't see them having an election. Unfortunately that means Trump stays in power another year or so, which would also mean he would no longer have to worry about trying to re-open the economy, as it wouldn't matter by then. I believe the path we are on right now, another month from now even, there is already permanent economic damage that can never be repaired. 300 + million out of work, 85% of all businesses shut down permanently. Food shortages, etc.....
