Anger. Non the less. To vote to send an FU to someone is still anger and you got who you got. I voted for Trump cause I don't know why anymore, it was a mistake.

And as for economy taking priority over the virus , let me put it in simple math . Over 20 million people lost their jobs and are struggling , less than 1 million infected . Tell which is having a greater impact on people ? The virus or the economy as a result of the virus ?

Financial hiccups are certainly a fate worse than death.

Those protesters are no different than going to a grocery store with regards to risk of the virus.

No different.....

True. Protesting is as essential as food and water. How did I never realize this until now?

Posada my grand father from Puerto Rico was a farmer and a carpenter who married a German immigrant who left Germany after WW1. They both lived thru the depression. I know from them what poverty is and even in that period people were not leaving the Cities to work on farms. We have had desperation in the world and US before. Working in a factory like a garment factory is one thing. Picking crops is a whole different bag.

Wear a mask at the venues...

Keeping EVERYTHING closed is ridiculous.

I wear my mask out.

Masks are beneficial but they are far from a perfect defense. You use them in hopes they'll be any sort of benefit in a situation where you absolutely must go out, not as a way to guarantee safety.

It's almost like South Korea did a monumentally better job at defending themselves from this virus....

I don’t regret voting for trump at all . Why should I? But I do know I won’t be voting in the next election . Or any election after that .

Or maybe a smaller population with less immigration is much easier to control than a country like the US . Then there is the fact that South Korea is a “socialist” country too

Since locking down the country hasn't instantly halted, let's just open her up and let this thing spread like wildfire, amirite?

Trump gave license to pass the buck. Because no-one really knows what will happen when we reopen, no one wants to be left holding their dick.
It wasn't my fault., I told them to take charge
It wasn't my fault, I told them to take charge
It wasn't my fault, I don't have the ability to take charge so it ended up a shite show because you told me to make the call

Hey, he told me to tell you that
No, I told you that you were in control
Oh yeah and I told you, you were in control

It really is that simple to understand. Accountability and taking some responsibility.

So you realize that the U.S. is absolutely not in the same position to be opening things up like South Korea is?

Why if you don't regret it ? You know every time you defend Trump your just trying to quiet the doubt in your head. Every single time. You will now go back and listen to right wing radio. Rush should be on about now. Or watch some right wing tv outlet. Then you will be back at around 6 hurling anti lib arguments. It's what you have become used to. It's your pattern, it gives you routine and purpose. Not my cup of tea but if that is what you call life until the baseball season returns to distract you it's on you. This is the life you have chosen for yourself. I used to do that myself. But I stopped.
