Wait another week or so and we will find out that it is all a lie.

The blame-shifting which took place after the fact (which even you are trying to do her) is just something which has come to define the pseudo-conservative Trump apologists.

Being a resident of Florida, I knew FL was doing it, but I didn't know about Texas and Georgia. Lying about it like that is borderline criminal.

Yes. The blame-shifting is nauseating. Trump wrote the guidelines, and he asked for the bail-outs, and he used the pandemic to campaign on daily bases. Pretty much every State reacted the same way, and some red States like Ohio and parts of Florida are still pretty strict. The protests took place in all 50 States, but all we hear from the blame-shifters is how everything is 100% the Dems fault. Maybe they actually believe it, which would mean we are a totally brainwashed nation.

Project much? You're the one who blames Trump 100% for anything and everything. Too funny.

Would be a cool story if if were true, but its not. I do not blame Trump for the virus, or the protest. What is it about Trump apologists that they feel compelled to repeatedly say things they know are not true? Blame-shifting is dishonest as hell, and so are these kinds of misrepresentations.

Get honest, and stay honest!

Pandering has started up again.

My friend works in the Texas Medical center(Houston)and says he has seen cases go up quite a bit in the past few days. Rates were like the very lowest in the country during the lockdown.

There has been a spike over the past few days in hospitalizations in some states but as of now, deaths are still declining. Time will tell over the rest of June and July if the protests led to a signifigant increase.

I know entire ER departments here in South Florida that were furloughed because of no cases.
