How ugly could it get? Trump faces echoes of 1929 in coronavirus crisis.

Well, it finally happened. Yesterday evening, it was announced that Amarillo now has 2 confirmed cases of COVID-19. The people who caught it had traveled outside of the Amarillo area.

Oh yeah...............Republican governor Abbot has decided that the virus is too prevalent, so now all groups of over 10 people are banned, and bars and eat in restaurants are being told to close. You can still get take out though. Might have to check and see if my favorite BBQ place is still open, because they do have take out.

History as proven........that you cannot stop the spread of these once they go exponential..........You can only advise people to try to minimize the spread...........In all the other Pandemics........that has always happened...........and it will happen here............Complaining doesn't change a thing.............and we aren't CHINA.........we aren't gonna FORCE YOU to stay in your home......

So it will spread.....hopefully most people will help stop this thing.....Historically...........we are screwed.....and nobody in office can stop it no matter what they do.

Unemployment will go through the roof. Twenty percent is being portended by some pundits.

MAGA followers don't even understand how serious the emerging financial crisis is.

just imagine how bad the economy would get if a anti business anti capitalist democrat were in office !

Yeah, that would be terrible! Why a democrat might even send $2,000 to every family, and ask for a $1 trillion dollar bailout!

this economy is going to bounce back commie and no matter how much you and your treasonous comrades in the democratic party want the virus to kill thousands so it will hurt Trump it aint going to happen ...you see we know what the biggest threat to our freedom and sovereignty is its the left not this virus ....... and we are comming out in record numbers in nov to keep you people out of the WH and we are taking back the House !

You are hired. Be at the White House at 8 AM Monday morning to report to work at Trump's Sec. of Commerce and Press Secretary. Be prepared to demonstrate that be his spokesperson while keeping a straight face.

and you are also hired be at my house at 8AM Monday morning to report to work and suck my ass .

 

[yidnar]

Perhaps we should consider our economy's fragility if some 'Chinese wind' can blow it over

~S~

Trump was handed a growing healthy economy and he intoxicated the economy with debt producing a stock market bubble fueled by debt and tax cuts for the wealthy.

Trump should have been reducing the debt instead of further enriching the wealthy with taxpayer money.

soooo your socialist agenda will reduce the debt ......

The Democratic party is proposing policies that would add tens of trillions to the budget, like the Green New Deal and Medicare for All, whether you are a US Citizen or not, and now they are worried about the budget?

Trump wants to send every American $1,000, and spend a trillion dollars in bailout, and you are blaming this on Democrats? Hell, I knew that Trumpettes were deluded, but I had no idea that they were insane!

Unfortunately, I don't think there is much the Government can do. You're right g5000. There is no blaming anymore. It's a world wide issue that everyone is dealing with. Stores and restaurants are all closed. Employees are being laid off. It's a really bad situation and I do believe there is a bi-partisan effort to try and help. I just don't see what can be done right now.

Stores and restaurants are closed by order of governors mostly Democrat governors. In many cases democrat mayors.

Wrong. Today Greg Abbot (TX Republican governor), shut down all eat in restaurants and bars. The prior decision was to let local mayors decide if a closing was required, but now the Republican governor has shut down everything.

Texas Governor Closes Restaurant Dining Rooms and Bars in the State

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued an executive order closing all Texas restaurant dining rooms and bars for dine-in service within his declaration of a public health disaster in the state, as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic.


Texas restaurants will be able to stay open to serve takeout, pickup, and drive-through orders. The order begins tonight, Thursday, March 19 and runs through Friday, April 3.


This order is similar to mandates already in place in Austin, Houston, and Dallas (though all with varying end dates) as well as other states like Oregon and Massachusetts. In Austin, the ban on dine-in service runs through Friday, May 1.


Gov. Abbott’s executive order, announced during a press conference at noon, follows the recommendations of the CDC. Along with the state-wide dining room and bar shutters, it includes avoiding social gatherings of groups of more than 10 people.

I see that this nonsense started in the more liberal cities. This is the next step in the democrat plan to really crash the economy.

The chickens are coming home to roost as Donald Trump spent like a drunken sailor in his first 3 years.

The worst aspect of this for Donald Trump will be that his own businesses will be under threat of collapse from the economic meltdown. It further demonstrates why US Presidents should put their assets in a blind trust when they are elected.

Donald Trump will be frantic in his efforts to save the Trump Organization from bankruptcy and wil be too busy to worry about his duty to Americans.

How ugly could it get? Trump faces echoes of 1929 in coronavirus crisis.

... The S&P is now only around 300 points away from wiping out all its gains since Donald Trump won the White House in November 2016. President Trump himself, one of the grandest boasters of the strength and resilience of markets and the American economy, appeared to capitulate on Monday with a more somber tone reflecting the immense magnitude of the challenge facing the nation. ...

Trump consistently uses half measures.

Trump announced recently he was invoking the Defense Production Act, which was established in 1950 in response to production needs during war. That same day, "I only signed the Defense Production Act to combat the Chinese Virus should we need to invoke it in a worst case scenario in the future," Trump tweeted. "Hopefully there will be no need, but we are all in this TOGETHER!"

That way, for those who approved the move he can say he invoked the wartime act because he is a "wartime President." To those who opposed the move, Trump can say "I really didn't mean it."

Trump consistently wants it both ways. He sometimes makes a fair stand-up comic when he does this.

Referring to a vaccine for malaria (caused by a parasite) working on covid-19 (caused by a virus), Trump said that if it works, it will be a game changer. Then he added, "Or maybe not." Trump's medical expert got up to the mike quickly to explain testing of the vaccine will take months.

Trump said his government is not a "shipping clerk" when criticizing governors trying to obtain supplies. Then he said governors are doing a"fantastic job" getting supplies and Trump's FEMA director said his agency was shipping supplies to the states.

Many times Trump avoids unpleasant facts.

When asked about the travel ban imposed by his state department, Trump referred the reporter to the state department and refused to to talk about it.

When asked about the use of bandanas by health caregivers, Trump said he hasn't seen that and he turned the matter over to Pence. The bandana issues have been in the media for days.

Trump said we should have known about this months ago. China reported the virus to the WHO in December. The U.S. government became aware of the virus in January.

How did this incompetent man become our President? He is a joke.

 

[Sandy Shanks]

In an "abundance of caution" L.A. County just shut down close to 95% of all economic activity. All that remains open are grocery stores, pharmacies, financial institutions, caregivers, mail services and restaurants serving takeout and delivery orders, among others.

189 deaths in three months within a population of 327 million. That's the approximate death rate for common cold complications in the sick and elderly.

Is the cure worse than the disease? You damn betcha.

soooo your socialist agenda will reduce the debt ......

Trump promised to reduce the debt to zero. He lied. He has first doubled, and now prospectively quintupled or septupled the budget deficit, or even blown it out more than that.

Comrade Dopey Donald Trump is a stealthy surreptitious socialist. His first step was to put farmers, the wealthy, and corporations on welfare before his spread his wings and socialized everything.

What's next? Will Uncle Sam buy Trump Organization at a premium?

 

[Sandy Shanks]

Why is the government shutting down the American economy? In three months within a population of 327 million, less than 200 sick old people have died from the common cold caused by a new virus.

I don't get it.

'THE CHICKENS COME HOME TO ROOST"? What does that mean? Does it mean that America deserves a pandemic because lefties ht the president?
