Law Coronavirus the US GOV'T Response analysis Thread

[BlacknBlue]

Hmm

Sweden has been pretty lax on lockdown/social distancing. Their neighbours Denmark have done a lock down. Sweden has almost twice as many dead pr million. 49 vs 91.. So if we just transfer those numbers to the US that would be 16k vs 30k.. I think you might be the ignorant and uninformed one here.

Except the narrative all along has been that most of the country is going to get this no matter what we do, it is just a matter of time. Our lock-down efforts have been to slow the spread and "Flatten the Curve" to help keep our Health Systems from being overrun. Sweden has effectively flattened their curve without lock-downs, and kept a sustainable system that's resulted in much less economic devastation. They don't have a panic about an explosion of cases after re-opening their economy because they never closed it. For all that their current numbers are still way better than many of our states that have implemented full lock-downs, and Sweden does not have benefit of warm weather that seems to have slowed the virus down in other parts of the country.

Maybe I am just a cynic, but it does seem like a lot of people (not saying you) are not as scared about Sweden seeing more deaths, but are actually more frightened that Sweden's approach to this is working.

Its amazing how the right unknowingly roasts Trump when they say the president is some sort of babbling child that shouldn't be listened to most of the time.

He was obviously joking.

Or being sarcastic.

You can't take him literally.

Or figuratively.

Either way, he tells it like it is.

Hmmmmmm

 

[Prutfis]

100k sure. 200k fine. These numbers are miniscule and pale in comparison to the millions dead from the total economic shutdown. My parents are in their 80s and are far more concerned with the shutdown than the virus.

Jeez

Lol at millions dead. Hyperbole much?

 

[evergreenrider]

So, what's considered "real news" and not fake? State sponsored news? Like how ccp does? Is that "real news"? So any independent investigation and reporting is "fake news"?

You're unemployed, and you steal from food banks. Everyone knows this.

Especially since he’s in his 30s and still in community college.

Hope Trump sends in the military to states that refuse to lift quarantines so we can start the Balkanization sooner.

"We are going to liberate the people of the state from quarantine. I command you to stop wearing masks and stop socially distancing from each other"

 

[Renard]

It's pretty sad that Trump is only major leader willing to say the truth about the WHO. All the others don't dare say the truth, or they're part of the problem itself (advocates of political correctness over lives).

 

[ookii]

Trump vs Trump

 

[superpunch]

Holy shit did he say he was going to be ending lockdowns while there are 550,000 active cases?? Please tell me I heard that wrong

The two party system is trash.

The two party system is trash.

Following the campaign closely for the first time as a non american is a funny thing to do.
My conclusions are :
You're all not living in a democracy, the two political party are trash and are not really in power, they are corrupted ploutocrats working for their generous donators (who are basically the same people for both) , the press is lying to the people and corrupted also, and the people are uneducated and follow stupidly what the medias tell them.

Good stuff.

Is his campaign paying for the change? It's basically a campaign move at this time tax payers are paying for sure. But Obama?
