in oct and nov when people's houses and 250s are being repossessed because the economy is in the shitter, what are people going to think?

"man, I wish we stayed shut down longer"

or

"whose idea was this, anyway



That’s the plan. The Dems wasn’t as much pain as possible in October and November so they can blame Trump for it all right before the election

Because of the constant harping of the press. Joe six-pack (well actually Karen 6-pack) has been lied to by the press into thinking if they venture outside they will die a nasty death in 2-3 weeks. If we open back up and a month from now there are not bodies in the streets they will forget they were against opening back up.

If we leave things as is much longer the economy will reach a point of no return, if that happens people will be looking for a change, any change. Even a senile, creepy, sexual pervert racist like Biden.

It is hurting Trump and the polls reflect that. However I believe like most things in the past if Trump goes against what is politically expedient and does what is right he will be shown to have been correct before November when everyone realizes reopening didn’t cause millions of deaths AND we didn’t destroy our livelihoods.

This is a free country, if you want to stay home and continue isolation it is your right to do it. However those of us who are healthy and want to move on with normal life should be allowed to do so

Hey Genius, stay at home. Do whatever floats your boat. Nobody is holding a gun to your head. Some of us will gladly accept the risk, to avoid going broke.

I hope the next virus "accidentally" released from a Chinese lab affects only males with extremely low-testosterone so that the Democrat Party will be left with only Womern voters.....

Oh wait, only women vote Democrat anyway....

Well said. When people realize the economic effects of this will last for years, people will not be so quick to suck off these politicians or Dr. Fauci for these measures

How and why do you see this as a valid response to the OP?

The American Public is on the side of the lockdown because they get up to $600 more a payday than they do by working.

If the lockdown lasts another 2+ months it will take 10 years to recover from the depression caused by it.
Then those same dumbasses will be crying about it.

Nobody actually thinks the democrats would be good for the economy or anything else. They NEVER talk about economic growth in real world terms, always some fairy tale shite like "green jobs".

They just want power

So basically you want it to kill old men. Interesting tactic. Don't think it will work the the GOP advantage.

Too bad historical data does not support what you say. Look back historically to see when crashes occur and when growth occurs. It's objective data. There will be no evidence to support any general statement that America suffers economically under Democratic administrations.

Maybe if you just spouted other stuff off the top of your head for a couple days, you may stumble upon something which is true.
