The " Book It " thread!

Prepare

Do you have a 401 or another retirement plan ? or would you have one if you could afford one ?
This is done to prepare one for their old age. the key word is Prepare

Frankly I don't give a fuck what Dr Fauci has to say. because He did not Prepare us for this. and now he the Dam expert is changing his tune. or did He just Lie to us all in the past ?

In a country where nearly every man,woman and child has a smart Phone. most have a automobile, a few TV's etc What we don't have is good quality Masks. these n95 masks cost less than $1 on the wholesale level just a few months ago. My point is for a few dollars a day we could have protected ourselves and love ones. plus our economy.

the math
320,000,000 x $2 x 30 days = $19,200,000,000 that's less than 20 billion a month. not 6 Trillion
 
Cliff,
I’ve said many times Biden is a human gaff machine.
Politicians are synonymous with lying but there’s a huge
difference in intent and being a leader.
Trump was an experiment and other than tax cuts for the
wealthy and getting federal conservatives(qualified or not)
into judgeships what has he done? Take credit for the recovery
and yet blame Obama for anything negative plus if you can make
an enemy of the press and people shut out information you gain
control and get away with a lot of dirty shit.
Prior to this virus thing I saw Trump winning in a landslide but now
I’m not so sure he can pull it off?
Pelosi and McConnell should jump off a very tall bridge together that
would be awesome.
 
You live in a world that you have literally no idea of what's going on around you. anyone on this planet who enjoys any amount of freedom should be thankful to the old US of A. and also root for us on a daily basis. We at only 5% of the worlds population rule this planet, not a easy feat. the country next in line will not be so kind. think about that.

Our relations with China have been growing for years and they've quietly become our strongest relation. The same is true with nations like Japan and others all around the pacific. We've continued to help developing nations like PNG, Fiji, etc and the development in our corner of the world has been notable in return. Meanwhile, our relations with all other nations under the Commonwealth continue to be prosperous and strong - the Commonwealth isn't going away any time soon so that co-operation between nations is a feather in the cap.

Your very post shows it is you guys who literally have no idea what is going on. You just elected an official who jumped on nationalism, accused everyone of horrible trade deals and crushed any compromise or goodwill that had been built. He relentlessly mocks us, launches tirades against politicians who promote ideals that we have - essentially calling us all socialists and your enemy - and that mentality has led to the online world in which millions of Americans basically tell us to go fuck ourselves on a daily basis.

And we should be... thankful?

I'll guess you'll point to military might. You keep us safe. You protect us. Nothing will harm us while you're around. Here is a newsflash: You guys have started every major conflict since WW2 and drawn us in with you each time. It has cost us how-knows how many billions of dollars to support your military campaigns. And your President LOVES to scream that we, and every other nation, are not picking up enough of the cost for military action which you guys consistently and relentlessly start.

War is great when you spend three times more on your military budget than anyone else and have an extremely large industry built on a military complex. Ooh-rah. It's a pain in the ass for sensible nations like us who spend more on social services and welfare, education and health than we do on military.

Um, thanks?

I guess you'll also say trade? Again, due to simple cost and proximity, our trade largely runs through other pacific nations. China, Japan and South Korea alone make up like 50% of our exports and the US is like 5%. Actually, if you even just quickly check the Wiki, we actually lose money to America because we import far more from America than we export to America. You make money from us, not the other way around. In addition, tourism is our largest industry in terms of generation of federal and state dollars, and the growth of private industry - and, by far, those dollars come from visitors from China. They represent 16% of tourist visitors. So does New Zealand. The USA represents just 9%. UK is 8%. Chinese tourists spend $12B here every year. USA is just $4B. While we're at it, it's very common for the Chinese to send their kids to Australia to complete University, which brings in big dollars. UK, New Zealand and China also represent our largest percentage of immigrants, too - which always facilitates stronger relations, well, mostly - for ya'll it leads to racism and building walls and shit.

Um, thanks?

I guess you'll also say stability. That your own prosperity is responsible for the prosperity of everyone. So obsessed with the trickle down economy, you guys actually believe in that economic model at a global level. Just keep in mind that when ya'll fell in to a recession, we did not. No doubt, your economic mismanagement hurts everyone, but stop pretending smaller nations are dependent upon the United States. We aren't.

And as for the freedoms we enjoy, we owe you guys literally nothing. The only time that has been threatened was WW2, and ya'll entered that party late only after it impacted you - almost two years after a small nation like Australia entered that war. I've seen that American history textbooks portray military history as essentially, "Bad guys were bad, Team America saved the day, the world loves and respects us." In reality, the efforts of nations throughout Europe are those that we value most and remain a reason to this day for strong relations. You guys did what you did for you, nobody else. Even in direct protection for nations like Australia, that was only because ya'll would be fucked if the Japanese could force the surrender of pacific nations. It wasn't about protecting an allied nation. It was protecting yourselves.

For what it's worth, we are proud of many various battles that are widely respected (By everyone except the US, ya'll remember BF56's lines about Aussies being pussies because all those who served our nation were all shot in the back because cowards run away? Yep. Pretty consistent sentiment from the US towards literally everyone else) across the globe for the impact it had on war efforts. There is no point going through them, I know ya'll all believe that "allied nations" is just a nice way of saying "Worthless and unhelpful but we pay to protect them because we're nice to our lesser."

Also, keep in mind, I'm a crazy leftist to you guys. Here, I'm pretty centrist. Our right wing government (Liberal party) are basically democrats. They are responsible for many advances in universal health care, nationwide gun control, greater free access to education and gay marriage - all pretty recently. So don't think this post is political. Most Aussies could give a fuck about the US.

And, again, we're all laughing at your President. Seriously. Don't think that's just me. You guys don't seem to understand that he is a laughing stock worldwide and I think it's because you're so obsessed with Faux News and they tell you he's a demigod to all. But even the Murdoch press here (Responsible for an obscene percentage of Australian media) either trashes him or pretends he doesn't exist because he'd be so detrimental to the relentless promotion of Murdoch's conservative values that there is no desire for alignment. Let that sink in. Right wing media in nations like Australia and the UK just pretends Trump doesn't exist or actually joins in sinking the boot.

Here is the recommended news in my browser as one of the top biggest hitters:

Before we had the Ruby Princess, Australia had the United States. The governmental dysfunction and chaotic health care of our favourite ally has not just made it the world leader in COVID-19 cases, it’s made it the key contributor to shifting the disease in Australia from challenge to emergency.

The COVID-19 data on the high level of overseas infections –particularly through US flight arrivals into Sydney — show that Australia is paying a large price for our social and political integration with North America. Particularly now, in the age of Trump.

The epidemic in the US has been marked with a profound systems failure — a jackpot of denialism from the top, politicisation of policy and implementation and a profoundly irresponsible right-wing media.

These overlay the doctrine of American exceptionalism which has concealed the long-term gutting of public institutions (accelerated under Trump), the uncoordinated mish-mash of local, state and federal responsibilities and the inherent private-public chaos that is the US health system on a good day.

This failure meant the US lost control of the virus. And while we were laughing at the Trump clown show, the virus escaped over the trans-Pacific air routes into our cities.
Flight arrival data suggests that things turned in the second week of March. On March 9 there were 92 cases in Australia. Just two flights into Sydney from the US had each carried what seems a single case (reports are by seating rows, so there could be more than one case in each nominated row).

By the following Sunday, when Australia followed New Zealand’s lead and closed its borders at midnight, a further 15 flights with at least 21 confirmed cases had arrived in Sydney from North America and the US had become the leading source country of overseas infection.

We’ve come to rely on competent US administrations taking responsibility to manage through the challenges posed by the long-term privatisation and marketisation of US institutions — particularly in health. But the US is a long way from the usual and, as Trump said: “I don’t take responsibility.”

To avoid that responsibility, the US right — promoted equally through the Fox network and Trump — worked to shape the story as either (or both) an exclusively China problem or a Democratic hoax.

It was the Chinese virus, Trump asserted, or the Wuhan virus, according to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. It was no worse than the flu — probably better, in fact. It was all under control. Anything contrary was a Democratic hoax. His Republican supporters publicly mocked fears, with one representative wearing a gas mask into Congress (he was later quarantined) and the Oklahoma governor tweeting (now deleted) after Trump finally declared a national emergency: “Eating with my kids and all my fellow Oklahomans at the @CollectiveOKC. It’s packed tonight!”.

As ever, it’s hard to tell whether Trump was following Fox News or vice versa. Throughout February and early March, the Murdochs’ voice of the right was spreading these talking points through the conservative base, forcing an embarrassing walk-back in late March.

These lines continue to echo faintly over the Pacific with well-known epidemiologist Andrew Bolt continuing the “no worse than the flu” meme this week and the News tabloids yesterday puffing
the Dutton “crack-down” on exports of masks and sanitisers, complete with references to a former Chinese military officer.

It tells us again that when it comes to the United States, Australia is not an island. Trump is our problem too. Turns out, when the US coughs, we catch COVID-19.

This is just how we view you guys at the moment. It wasn't this way under Obama or (to a lesser extent) Bush. A problem. Maybe even the problem. Australia is no different than the rest of the world - your relations with us are at an all time low and not much can be done about it because correcting those relations is dependent on the egotistic, narcissistic fool you call "Mr President."

And that opinion piece also represents something larger - it isn't just me saying you guys fucked up with COVID-19. You guys just objectively fucked up.

Here is another of the top articles on the browser:

The United States has angered Germany and France after allegedly seizing millions of masks set to be shipped to the European nations amid the coronavirus crisis.

On Friday, German officials hit out at America for 'intercepting' 200,000 masks they had ordered from a 3M factory in China.

As 3M is an American-owned company, the US was able to 'confiscate' the shipment of special FFP2 and FFP3 masks which were on their way to healthcare workers battling the COVID-19 outbreak in Berlin.

'We consider that an act of modern piracy,' Berlin's interior minister Andreas Geisel blasted.
'You don't treat your transatlantic partners like that,' he is further quoted as saying in the Financial Times.

Germany and France: two nations that haven't made it a secret they're not exactly thrilled with the Trump administration - among a host of other nations.

But you want the world to be thankful to the US?

Thanks. For the condescending nonsense about how every smaller nation should be thanking you guys at all times. We are. With two middle fingers.
 
You proved my point no idea. I won't waste more of my time on you. get older and wiser I hope.

That's weak man. Super weak.

Don't start shit, get a response, decide you're either unwilling or unable to respond intelligently, and then double down with another insult.

And yes, I'm American, but damn man you make us look bad getting your ass handed to you and all.

I disagree. First, there is a lot to unpack in that convoluted tirade. But let's just examine a relatively small portion thereof"

Your very post shows it is you guys who literally have no idea what is going on. You just elected an official who jumped on nationalism, accused everyone of horrible trade deals and crushed any compromise or goodwill that had been built. He relentlessly mocks us, launches tirades against politicians who promote ideals that we have - essentially calling us all socialists and your enemy - and that mentality has led to the online world in which millions of Americans basically tell us to go fuck ourselves on a daily basis.

And your President LOVES to scream that we, and every other nation, are not picking up enough of the cost for military action which you guys consistently and relentlessly start.

Regarding the election of Trump, it is true that he has jumped on nationalism as opposed to globalism and the costs of globalism. It is true that he is a populist who has seen the rust grow in the so called rust belt while industrialists move their operation to the sweatshops in China to take advantage of cheap labor and minimal regulations, the result being a trade deficit with China on the order of $400 billion per year, year after year. The profiteers and rich consumers love it, but American workers suffer.

https://www.thebalance.com/u-s-china-trade-deficit-causes-effects-and-solutions-3306277

And yes, the trade deals negotiated by past administrations have been a disaster for us and deserved to be pulled back and renegotiated fairly. They basically involved a giveaway that was unsustainable but nevertheless sustained at great cost. And if "goodwill" with the foreign benefactors of the scams allowed by prior administrations is lost, then so be it.

And, yes, socialism is the enemy of free enterprise, self reliance and freedom.

In regard to his mention of the military, however, let's be honest for a change. Our foreign entanglement have become unmanageable and Trump was elected to end the endless wars of previous administrations. As Trump has repeatedly pointed out, we have spent over $8 trillion dollars in the Middle East in the past 20 years for no good reason. We need to let Russia, Turkey and Saudi Arabia take care of the Middle East. No doubt, liberals in congress will cringe at the concept of allowing Russia to replace us in Syria and other such like, but it is inevitable in any case. They are there and we are an ocean away. It is their backyard. Let them have their own backyard.

The same applies to Europe. We currently have about 60,000 troops stationed in Europe, mainly in Germany, Italy and the UK. Why are they there? Why not let Europeans take care of the security of Europe. Europe is as rich as us and with at least the resources. If Europe want our soldiers on their soil, they should pay for their keep. If not, said soldiers should come home.

If he wasn't so quick to ascribe the blame to the new guy who is trying to end the morass, we might find some agreement here and there. But why bother with facts, his mind is made up. And, anyway, the major disagreement I (and presumably MMW) is the prescription for fixing the problem. He prescribes socialism; I prefer free enterprise, self reliance and libertarian freedom.
 
The following link is to the article in the Federalist that the President referred to in his briefing today:

https://thefederalist.com/2020/03/3...top-of-it-while-biden-was-mocking-the-danger/

The title of the article is as follows

"The Real Coronavirus Chronology Shows Trump Was On Top Of It While Biden Was Mocking The Danger" by Cleta Mitchell

An excerpt:

The leftist national media incessantly reports that the spread of the coronavirus is, well, President Trump’s fault. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, always good for the most incendiary and least helpful comments in any difficult situation, said on Sunday, "[T]he president — his denial at the beginning was deadly."

Then in Joe Biden’s latest effort to be relevant, his campaign has released an ad attacking President Trump for not being sufficiently responsive to the threats of the coronavirus from the "beginning."

The article gives the true chronology.

Cheers.
 
There is just know way I’m going to try and address all of the
comments but I will say those who dislike the term “socialism”
are living in a fantasy world.
Before the big Corona we had already spent close to three trillion
dollars in what can only be called a serious waste of taxpayer dollars.
Since the virus everyone has there hand out and as tragic as this is
there is surely a lot of pork running around DC and the Trump hotel.

The handling of this has been rudderless, and the daily press rally’s
are borderline ridiculous.
Regardless of your politics all the country needs right now is Honesty.
Simply inform the country of where we are and what we as a country
need to do to slow this down and get a handle on it, what we’re doing
now is embarrassing.
There are refrigerated tractor trailers parked all over the country for the
dead.
Trump doesn’t have to take the blame but he really does need to lead.
Right now America is running a socialist country in the wake of this
viral attack and this is worse than 9/11 and Katrina, it amazes me how
we’re always a day late and reacting instead of acting.

Be safe and be healthy, even you Hammer!!!

The profiteers and rich consumers love it, but American workers suffer.

https://www.thebalance.com/u-s-china-trade-deficit-causes-effects-and-solutions-3306277

I feel like you guys, like your president, don't understand that the deficit is not a price tag you're actually paying. It is just the quantity of goods purchased on the free market. As your link notes, the largest import from China for the US is phones and computers.

All your iPhones and technology is made in China. And it's mostly from American companies who make their goods there to dodge tax and exploit cheaper workers. Also clothes, which as has been pointed out millions of times, the Trump family themselves have exploited Chinese labour for their own fashion lines and assorted products. Don't even get me started on the likes of Nike, Adidas and thousands of other products that are American but simply made in China. Again, make at a cheap rate overseas, and then sell at a massively inflated price back home... and then blame China for this?

And you dipshits wonder why us "socialists" want the companies who do this to pay more tax? Lol.

That isn't a nation taking advantage of you, it's just companies doing what they are actively encouraged to do, by you and those who share you ideals, because taxing them for the practice is socialism.

So, you're not giving China $300B, you're just buying more from them than they buy from you. At quadruple the price. I condemn that and it makes me a socialist, I guess.

And yes, the trade deals negotiated by past administrations have been a disaster for us and deserved to be pulled back and renegotiated fairly. They basically involved a giveaway that was unsustainable but nevertheless sustained at great cost. And if "goodwill" with the foreign benefactors of the scams allowed by prior administrations is lost, then so be it.

Here is the reason this sentiment is stupid: It's hypocritical.

U.S. goods and services trade with Australia totaled an estimated $65.5 billion in 2018. Exports were $47.3 billion; imports were $18.2 billion. The U.S. goods and services trade surplus with Australia was $29.1 billion in 2018.

https://ustr.gov/countries-regions/southeast-asia-pacific/australia

So you guys are outraged by a $300B deficit when it comes to trade with China, but cool with a $30B surplus with a nation as small as Australia?

But, because we're not dumb as fuck, we know that isn't actually us giving you $30B for nothing. You import meat and pharmaceuticals from us, we import aircraft, military equipment, machinery, vehicles and medical instruments - we aren't running at a deceit, we're just buying more expensive shit than you guys are.

Oh, and just so you know, those $900M in pharmaceuticals you buy from us is really scary. We have pricing regulations on the cost of medicines which keeps the production costs extremely low. You guys, on the other hand, hate socialism so your medicines and treatment cost utterly fucking insane quantities of money. So just like the insane mark ups on phones, computers and clothing/footwear, your companies are participating in socialism and then selling those products back to you at quadruple the cost - and ya'll beat your chest and say you're beating socialism. Cute.

And, yes, socialism is the enemy of free enterprise, self reliance and freedom.

This is another aspect of American ignorance that your President highlights - shitholes.

You guys really think everywhere else is a shithole. That we just don't have free enterprise, self reliance or freedom because, um, we've got health care and don't shoot children in schools. It's so. damn. weird.

But it's everyone else who doesn't understand how the world works. Right.

In regard to his mention of the military, however, let's be honest for a change. Our foreign entanglement have become unmanageable and Trump was elected to end the endless wars of previous administrations. As Trump has repeatedly pointed out, we have spent over $8 trillion dollars in the Middle East in the past 20 years for no good reason. We need to let Russia, Turkey and Saudi Arabia take care of the Middle East. No doubt, liberals in congress will cringe at the concept of allowing Russia to replace us in Syria and other such like, but it is inevitable in any case. They are there and we are an ocean away. It is their backyard. Let them have their own backyard.

Firstly, you're welcome. That $8T blown on the Middle East? Imagine the cost if nations like Australia told you to go fuck yourselves and refused to offer so much in military support. Given how the tiny handed tyrant has treated everyone, I think it's safe to say you guys won't get nearly as much assistance moving forward.

How is that going?

Judging by the headlines, the last two years of U.S. Middle East policy seem to be marked by a whiplash-inducing series of radical shifts. U.S. President Donald Trump ran on opposition to a foreign policy of “intervention and chaos,” then ramped up U.S. airstrikes from Somalia to Syria. He announced a complete pullout of U.S. troops from eastern Syria in December, declaring, “They’re all coming back and they’re coming back now,” only to reverse himself and then trumpet additional military deployments to the region to counter Iran six months later. He has simultaneously decried his predecessor’s overinvestment in the Middle East and his weakness there.

Even articles that slant more sympathetic to Trump?

Through its post-9/11 wars in Afghanistan and especially Iraq, the Bush administration attempted not only to root out hostile regimes but also to fundamentally remake the region in a manner consistent with U.S. interests and values. Bush, of course, failed in spectacular fashion to achieve that transformation. Barack Obama, who ran for president in part to remedy those failures, mostly maintained America’s security architecture in the region and sought (largely unsuccessfully) to overhaul America’s role in the Middle East without resorting to military force. Trump, by contrast, has been willing to use limited military force, but has also demonstrated little interest in effecting any change in the region beyond retiring the United States as a security guarantor. Ultimately, he wants out.

Either by incompetence or inability, Trump has changed little and the United States continues to bleed funds in to failed military efforts.

The same applies to Europe. We currently have about 60,000 troops stationed in Europe, mainly in Germany, Italy and the UK. Why are they there? Why not let Europeans take care of the security of Europe. Europe is as rich as us and with at least the resources. If Europe want our soldiers on their soil, they should pay for their keep. If not, said soldiers should come home.

What are you guys waiting for? In case you haven't noticed, people don't actually love the US having a military presence everywhere - despite what I'm sure your textbooks teach you. Take them home. You idiots won't take them home because you want people to pay you to do something that, well, you want to do. Believe it or not, the US isn't actually serving as security. Team America isn't defending our freedoms the way you gleefully seem to think. I bet you actually think those troops are the reason Europe isn't being invaded by whatever force you're claiming to protect us from this week. You are a warmongering nation with a military complex - stationing troops all around the globe is just part of your "bigger stick, little dick" oeuvre.

If he wasn't so quick to ascribe the blame to the new guy who is trying to end the morass, we might find some agreement here and there. But why bother with facts, his mind is made up. And, anyway, the major disagreement I (and presumably MMW) is the prescription for fixing the problem.

Don't blame him, it's everyone else's fault!

Firstly, I completely agree. Bush was a fucking mental case and Obama lacked the fucking spine to make the changes needed to be made - admittedly, he was in office during a time of far greater threat. But, I do acknowledge that a large part of the reason he was unwilling to end the war efforts was... you. He was consistently and relentlessly hounded for being too soft, too weak and too much of a pussy on that front. Shit, even following Trump's military strikes just a few months ago, are we going to pretend GOP supporters all across the nation didn't boast about how nice it was to have a strong leader who wouldn't take shit? Let's face it, he couldn't pull out of military efforts because the GOP provided the pressure point for those efforts to be continued at the least or massive ramped up at the worst. Unlike Obama, Trump is up against progressives who want those efforts to end.

Secondly, Trump hasn't ended shit. Even you mention the "new guy trying to end the morass." Key word is trying. Not doing. And he's not doing because he doesn't want to do. He's heightened tensions with Iran and Syria, launched more than his fair share of military engagement and hasn't done shit towards legitimately ending anything.

Yes, why would I blame literally the only person who can do something for not doing something? I wonder. I'm sure we could find common ground if I blamed Obama or Bush, but considering neither is President of the United States, I'm not entirely sure what you want them to do?

He prescribes socialism; I prefer free enterprise, self reliance and libertarian freedom.

Just so we're clear, what Australia and the slew of other nations on similar policies do is not socialism. I let you use the buzzword for the sake of simplicity, but all it shows is you guy don't actually know what socialism is. It's just something you scream to make yourself feel better about being confronted with policy you can't form a cohesive argument against. I mean, let's be honest, your crowd uses "socialism" and "communism" interchangeably without the faintest idea that those ideals aren't actually synonymous.
 
Thanks Dan

Regardless of who is president, we are living in the ducking number 1 nation in the world.

We as a country will get through this.

Any haters on the USA can go and get ducked.

Go America!
 
There’s no hate for America honestly it’s our own arrogance
that pisses off the rest of the world. Were always claiming to
be the greatest nation on earth but we’re not, we’re just not
Our country is such a great idea and I love and served our
country and just because we have the worlds best military
doesn’t make us the best.
It makes us the bully on the playground.

BDU,
Your a great poster and we’re all glad your onboard
with the Browns, but now is not the time to flame
Americans not all of us are bad and we all have bigger
problems right now, your patience with us right now
would be greatly appreciated.
Peace.

Okay Dan, keep your argument with my signature here and leave football talking there.
My signature is what it is rather you agree or not I do absolutely not care.
Bottom line is the vast majority of those whom will die were on deaths doorsteps anyways.
The lamestream news going as far as using video footage of Italy and advertising it as NYC only feeds my hoax of this is a media driven bull shit deal whereas the United states dead will about equal h1n1 &&&& ohh btw we DIDN'T SHUT OFF THE WORLD FOR THAT.
 
Your just being a fuckin asshole.
Like I said it’s people like you that will end
up killing everyone around you because
you feel it’s your right to be ignorant.

This is no hoax this shit is real if you want to promote
your BS you tube signature in here it’s fine but when it
follows you around the board your just being an asshole
I’m sorry but there’s no other way to say it.
 
I removed post regarding your signature not for
you but I don’t want to derail OC’s thread but I
stand by what I’ve said, sober up and watch a
Here’s a hoax video for you,

I'm not flaming anyone. I was told I'm forced to be thankful, and I explained why that's a load of bullshit - not only for me, but for everyone around the world. Sorry, you nation is not well liked or respected. At all. And nobody is going to be forced to thank you guys for it.

And you're not going to "not the time" me in to silence. That's another annoying American trait. Now is the time to talk about pandemic response because the pandemic response has been fucking abysmal at the hands of your moronic President.

Honestly, are ya'll really just not upset about this? Our current headlines are that in the middle of announcing potentially hundreds of thousands of deaths, your president stopped to brag about having fucked models. That is where you guys currently are as a nation.

Let's go back one week ago to when I first posted on this. Cliff parroted Trump's lines about this just basically being the flu and that business should continue as normal, and seemed shocked Australia was taking drastic measures with just 3,000 cases and 13 deaths. Dawgfan said I was just making it political and a Trump hater, and that COVID should be "treated like the flu-like disease it is."

A week later, we've taken many further measures and our cases sit at 5,600 and 34 deaths. Unacceptable, by our standards, and wondering why the government didn't shut everything down sooner.

Ya'll have now surpassed 300,000 cases, with 288,000 still active. You have surpassed 8,000 deaths with more in a critical condition. Your testing has also slowed, so those numbers are probably significantly higher. Trump is only just starting to take it seriously, and has foreshadowed a horrific several weeks to come.

You guys should be fucking furious at you government's response and denialism.
