As people moved away for better jobs and chances the ones left behind turned their plight into blaming everyone else for not helping them and somehow bought into the Republican mantra of "government is bad so elect me so I can help you". A solidly union area is now Trumpville. Mitch knows his people think that annual report that he brought X amount of money to his state is helping them and so they don't pay attention when he blatantly lies about what the Democrats are doing. Or worse when he tells the truth about what he is doing. RE: Coronavirus Information...who do you trust? - GMDino - 08-23-2020 RE: Coronavirus Information...who do you trust? - GMDino - 08-23-2020

RE: Coronavirus Information...who do you trust? - Belsnickel - 08-28-2020 Today is the third day of classes at my university. As of yesterday, there were already about 120 known positive cases among students. Most of those were self-reported by students because that is the only way they can get that information if they test off campus. Word from healthcare providers in the city is that there are many more positive cases among students than that. It's going to be an interesting semester.

That's 9,210 deaths. The other 94% had 2 to 3 other serious illnesses and the overwhelming majority were of very advanced age; 90% in nursing homes.

The media will stop reporting on the doom and gloom of COVID-19 essentially overnight. Biden will then get credit for getting things under control on the COVID sector when nothing will have actually changed I would bet everything I have on that if it were possible. If voters think Biden is going to pay them to sit at home and social distance for 2 years, they are in for a rude awakening. Honestly, Biden winning would have that silver lining from me. Maybe the media would finally give it a rest and stop tearing this country apart like they have been since March. "Vote for our candidate or we will see to it that the country effectively fails to operate for another four years." That was the strategy the Dems had this election cycle.

Von, if social distancing has "flattened the curve" by November, I think that the position of whoever wins will be to open things back up. And I don't see how Biden will get credit for "getting things under control" while Trump was still in power. On the other hand, If the pandemic is still with us in January/February, and Biden is president, I'm pretty sure you'll see a national policy similar to that taken by European countries, with clear and consistent messaging from the whitehouse regardng research, needed precautions, etc. Biden's policy will be driven by a medical consensus on the proper means of fighting the pandemic, not a divisive re-election strategy. Media coverage of that response will indeed be less critical of it response to Trump's handling of the pandemic. |
