I'm actually quite delightful, but I want to fist fight people exacerbating the panic right now.

I assume that's you, but I reckon you'd be too scared to leave the house to meet at sonic, so raincheck, pussy.

No good way to respond to the problem:

1. Do nothing and get blamed for things getting worse.

2. Do something and get blamed for overreacting.

Trump chose:

3. do nothing to begin with then react when the shite hits the fan.

4. Blame Obama.

Look at all the people who want to be left to their own dramatic ways without being called out.

We are canceling everything. Yall really think this is necessary? Unbelievable.

Necessary? Probably not. Extremely smart as a means to get ahead of the virus and stop exponential spread? Absolutely.

Why is that so hard to comprehend?

Do you really think Trump would purposefully take measures that will practically erase any economic gains made since his election without thinking it's necessary?

If even Trump thinks it's necessary, it may be time to get your head out of the sand.

He chose to ban travel with China at the start of this back in January and was called a racist for it.

You shouldn’t state lies.

What has been cancelled that you’re upset about?

I’m aware that tons of shite has been cancelled - I’m just wondering what specifically you care about this has been cancelled.

Trumpistas even more Trumpier than Trump. There's a Dr. Seuss book in there somewhere.

At what point should he have declared a national emergency?

In that vein, why have any events ever? Think of all the things you'd be ahead of? What is so hard to comprehend measured reaction?

People are now totally fine with stopping life when someone tells you it's necessary. Nobody here thought it was necessary to cancel events in June until it happened, now I'm getting shite for still thinking it's ridiculous.

His son's travel ball has been cancelled so now he loses a lot of visitation.
