You do realize Hitler pretty much took control over the entire economy.  Imagine what Hitler would do with this cv-19.

 

If Trump was the Authoritarian person you claim he would have mandated all states do a lockdown, would have taken over companies to insure the manufacture of PPE, ventilators, masks, just like Hitler.  As soon as he confiscated all the guns.

 

Ignorant partisans like @BullBuchanan can't seem to grasp a basic fact: 

 

Authoritarians CENTRALIZE power. 

Nearly every one of Trump's policies has been to DE-CENTRALIZE power. 

 

But, when you don't know your history and can't think for yourself, you'll fall for ANYTHING, as Bull keeps proving.

..this SG kid is VERY sharp IMO............

 

He is pretty sharp but i for one am shocked that since Trump is such a racist he would allow an AA in high place in his administration.  I would rather have him answer questions than Trump, at least when discussing medical/health issues.

How is your niece doing?

 

My sister posted yesterday. Might talk to my sister later today. Haven't heard anything much. Trying to give space. Yesterday she took a second covid-19 test. Not sure much else going on. 

 

Update on Cassandra! and I got to see her today at Buffalo Children's. She is looking better. She is at 50-60% working on her own and the rest is the ECMO machine. Doctors are deciding to slowly dial down the machine so we can make sure she is able to function on her own. Everything is healing like it should and brain activity looks good. Hopefully by next week we will be able to interact with her. We don't know yet what type of virus did this and perhaps we might not never know. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers so she heals. Thank you for all the outreach, we really appreciate it.

Can anyone Joe Biden doing one of these Q&A pressers?  :blink: 

 

It would be 5 minutes of Joe bumbling thru on the teleprompter, 15 minutes of the other experts  and a few softball lobbed questions. Over in 25 minutes.  His handlers would be in total panic Joe might wander off the script the entire time.

 

We would also see everyone with masks but Joe becuase he is special &entitled old hack politician his mask doesnt need to have his nose covered.

From Michigan:

 

New Whitmer order bans 'travel between residences,' with a few exceptions
 

After Friday, Michigan residents will no longer be able to jump in the car — or cross the street — to visit friends and relatives inside the state, or to go to the cottage Up North, with limited exceptions.
 

That is one of the major changes in Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's "stay home" order, issued Thursday, which also extends the expiration of the order to May 1.
 

</snip>
 

“All public and private gatherings of any size are prohibited," Whitmer said at a news conference. "People can still leave the house for outdoor activities," and outdoor "recreational activities are still permitted as long as they’re taking place outside of six feet from anyone else.”
 

People will still be able to travel to other residences outside the state, but not to cottages or vacation rentals inside the state, the order says.
 

</snip>
 

The new order creates a few oddities. For example, it is still OK to travel north to visit a state park, but not to go to a cottage or home, Whitmer spokeswoman Tiffany Brown confirmed.
 

Brown did not respond to a question about how some aspects of the travel restrictions will be enforced. Violating the order can bring a civil fine of up to $1,000.

I've heard this situation described as "The Ring of Power for governors."

More leftist fake news.

Hart Island, shown in the photo  is amnisland in the Bronx that is the NYC Potter's Field, Over one MILLION bodies are buried there.  Now on average about 20 unclaimed bodies are interred a month. Might be a few more due to the pandemic, but the article is pure propaganda from the left.

I watch all these pressers. It is amazing to me that the press does not. <_<   These "journalists" either ask a question about something that was pertinent two or three weeks ago (and no longer true or relevant today)  or they ask the same question that was asked, and answered, two days prior.

I said it before, I'll say it again - President Trump has the patience of a saint.

 Half arent looking for any real answers, they are  looking for a gotcha moment.  The Jim Acosta question was just absurd, setting up false premises in his question as fact and letting Trump respond which Trump would have none of.

Forgetting the fact that National Socialism is a completely different and opposed thing from Socialism, do you believe that because someone calls themseleves a thing, that's what they are? Do you think The Congo is a Democratic Republic? Is North Korea a Democratic People's Republic? How About China? Are Al-Qaeda freedom fighters?

People are what their actions say they are.

 

By refusing to give states the aid they requested, he assisted their decline which will make them far more vulnerable to his future executive actions.
