I just don't understand why can't people sacrifice maybe 1 month or 2 months of their freedom to save our country!

Look at Italy, even if majority of their people don't die, (and they won't) their economy is screwed for this year at least. They can kiss their tourism business goodbye, but maybe this is a good thing for them!!!!!!

He needs to close the schools in the state to make up for DiBlasio's refusal to close them in NYC. Having 1 million kids in school makes the rest of the actions done to quell the spread of the virus meaningless

The cases in some European countries are exploding as noted by the percentage of population (right column). Italy has been bad all along but now Switzerland and Norway are increasing. Why is Mexico so low? Is it lack of testing? Do they have greater immunity?

Orange Man made test kits unavailable

So, now that all these people are infected, they should start exhibiting symptoms throughout this week and many should be in the hospital, near death by Friday. Right?

If this happens I’ll side with Democrats on this argument and agree Trump is at fault and should be held accountable.

What will Democrats say if this doesn’t happen? What will be the reason?
They will move the goal post !!! Situation normal !!!

If not this week it will be next week or the week after and so on !!!

Slippery aren't they !!!

Dems- you should nominate him over your current losers (excepting Tulsi as I would consider her as well).
Andrew "Evil Eye" Cuomo is a d***, born with a silver spoon, and many other insults..but he's a much better leader and executive in a time of crisis than this orange clown right wingers put in the oval office. I have no doubt Hillary, Obama, Bush...every one of them would have handled this better...because they are not narcissistic con artists who solely care about their own PR and NOTHING else. He can't even put it aside NOW. They all have many faults and are far from perfect, but are all mountains of character when placed up against this buffoon.

You can't tell me they couldn't have foreseen the massive influx of returning citizens. All they had to do was call airlines (top mgmt) and ask what the manifests look like.

Did you hear officials, at any point, tell passengers "do not rush for the first flights, you will be able to catch flights for the next month. Do not crowd." Or, anything? At all?

The Federal Gov is instituting things with no coordination, little communication (and a percentage of that communication is wrong), and no leadership.
Do you really think that would have worked after seeing what is happening in grocery stores?

The smart people already quietly made their way back home.

These are the same people whose relatives are hoarding toilet paper.
