Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

Maryland Governor Larry Hogan op-ed on the nonexistent federal response to Coronavirus.

Mirrors a lot of the complaints that were being discussed here during that time.

All of this probably needed to be said, but Hogan was somebody I had hoped would take a prominent role in the GOP after Trump. The fact that he’s now criticized Trump to this degree probably means that won’t happen. The Trumpkins will hate him forever, just like they’ve hated every other voice of reason in the party.

A local infectious medicine doctor said yesterday on Nashille radio if Trump had put uniform federal corona virus rules in place from the beginning, we would already be out of this mess. Since there are none, states and localities have been free to do what they want.

Our local infectious MD cannot possibly predict that. Besides, freedom is too important to reign in.

How so? California has been very strict from the beginning. Are they out of it?

Are you driving back and forth daily or going to stay the duration of your work week?

They are going to pay for her hotel there , plus food . Then she plans on driving home after her week is done . It’s a little over an hour from the house .
 
Not as simple as that and you know it. People need to get back to work, and most want to get back to work. We've already received one stimulus, how many more do you think the government should issue?
That money has been appropriated to Israel, however I am sure that Congress has the ability to do something. Just think, if we could've done an actual lock down in March or April, we would be past this by now. Nope, we are still trying to put a band aid over a bullet wound.

Cali locked down. Sorry to break your theory DJ.

Lots of people suddenly become Nostradamus in hindsight and speak out of their ass.

It's easy to blame Trump, but I still contend response should have been more on state and local government than federal government. Governors should be held more accountable on something like this than the President, IMO. And no, that's not a defense of Trump. I guess it's all about how you view government, and who you think should have what powers. I think we rely too heavily on federal government, which is what has allowed them to seize more power than they were ever intended to have.

There's gonna have to be some balance at some point. If it's more advantageous to sit at home, some will definitely choose that option. Others are impatient to get back to work.

Can you put a number on how many people are making more money by staying at home? This seems to be the standard Republican response to stimulus checks and federal unemployment assistance. I guarantee you more people have lost income rather than made more income on governmental assistance.
 
There you go again with this guy, this is like Trump tweeting out marriage advice or Travis Henry preaching to people about wearing condoms. This guy is a hypocrite
Side note, is anyone else disappointed that none of Travis Henry's mythical children have grown up to play football for the Vols?

Then why didn’t Fauci recommend those rules in the beginning?
