What is going to happen when a great portion of our medical professionals come down with the coronavirus and can’t treat patients any longer? All because this president refuses to provide the proper preventative supplies.
People refuse to see that there are many people really suffering now.Those unemployed with NO money coming in. When you are in the grocery stores stocking up, watch out for the struggling moms, with the calculator in their hand, trying to figure out how they can stretch their last $30 to feed their kids.
The United States saw it’s deadliest day yet with more than 200 reported deaths and this administration thinks that things are winding down.
What kind of “Wartime President” chooses to withhold vital supplies from his generals or governors, when they are crying out for help because their people are dying? A very sick and dangerous one.
Drew Brees has donated $5 million to food relief in New Orleans. It’s about time that other pro athletes, with their obscene salaries, step up and do likewise.

Boris Johnson talked about continuing to shake hands with people while visiting them in the hospital, despite the fact that many of them had coronavirus. Now he has it too. Why are these people being so reckless?
The daily COVID-19 briefings would bemuchmore effective if the Impeached Incredibly Stable Genius with the Great and Unmatched Wisdom did not participate in them. As soon as I see his face, I hit the mute button, since absolutely nothing he says can be believed. I’ve been depending on Gov Cuomo to keep me updated with the truth.
A group of young adults in Kentucky held a coronavirus party to defy orders to socially distance, and now they are testing positive for the virus. They showed us, didn’t they?
