Actually it would be wonderful because it would mean we are on the way down.

I don't think it will happen the way everyone is not staying put.

Coming down from peak deaths would be wonderful. Packing churches full of old people on April 12 would not be wonderful.

I took it as, it would be nice but probably not going to happen.

Nope. People who contract the virus today might not even become symptomatic until April 8. Church isn't gonna safely happen 4 days later.

Guess what: It wouldn't be wonderful. The thought that the virus will be controlled enough for churchgoers (who are generally an older population) to safely pack churches for Easter on April 12 is either incredibly naive or incredibly self-serving.

Trump needs to be a big boy about this and speak the truth. CDC says we're 3-6 weeks away from peak coronavirus deaths. He only pulled Easter out of his ass because he thinks that'd look great for him if it somehow magically worked out. But it won't happen because the adults in the room will speak up about it.

With social distancing the worst should be over around Easter but I agree more time is needed to make sure things have passed.

What if Trump is just a straight psychopath and wants the high score?

That is the crux of the issue.

just go by the precept that NO ONE KNOWS ANYTHING.

it's all speculation. someone will be right but only by accident.

just act accordingly.

the problem with you liberals is you take his statement of hope and bash him for it. He's the leader he has to steer the ship and set the goals.
the fact is there has to be an end to this shut down and as our president (yours too) has said in many ways
at some point we have to take everything we have learned on how to seperate , how to isolate when needed ,how to stay clean and get back to work.

we cant starve the country . So instead of you A-holes just lobbing grenades. Give him some input on when and how we can do it. there's a lot of out of work critics right now and staying out of work forever is not the answer.
at some point we have to figure out how to minimize the risk and get out country cranking again.

I read your answer and I'm shocked that you of all people would act so freaking naive.

I didnt see the executive order mandating that so I' guessing that there will be a decision made a little closer to that date?

were you listening to a different press briefing or did you just decide to do something crazy and actually pay attention to what was said?

[DriveInDriveOut]

I was talking about the interview.

 

[Re-Raise]

Probably at least double that

 

[olroadbeech]

Right now the market is running on emotions more than anything else. This stimulus pak is giving people confidence so the stocks are up lately.

However this is FAR from over cause CV cases has not even come close to peaking so sit tight for more of a roller coaster ride.

we are still buying. dollar cost averaging.

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

Probably at least double that

Thanks Democrats

 

[Re-Raise]

Thanks Democrats

What happened to “Thanks Obama”?

It’s only the President’s fault when it isn’t Supreme Leader?

[newfie]
