Not a Trump fan but he is 100% right on this. The hypocrisy is staggering.

Fair point, the protesters (not the rioters and looters) were there to support equal rights for all, the POTUS, not so much.

It's really not a good comparison at all.

I don't wish harm or illness on anyone, but I will not fail to see the irony if Florida is forced to put limitations (or completely cancel) his Convention-Rally, especially if it turns out that NC is on the mend, and it could have gone on in Charlotte.

He is in no way right. Putting people at risk for his personal gain will cost him. He can do what the rest of the profit-seeking world is doing, and ADAPT! (I love profit, and the underpins of getting it are being flexible and adaptable.)

Simple question: Do you think a rally in its typical format of a lot of people close together without masks is a good idea AT THIS TIME?
And yet they will be handing out masks and individual bottles of sanitizers to all of the rally goers at the doors.


Most likely the majority of those without masks will be those who have had the virus already. Why wear a mask if they can't catch it or spread it?

Probably far more Dem lives will be lost due to the protesters, looters and rioters.

Are you also telling that to your friends who are gathering the thousands to “protest”?

How is tearing down statues supporting equal rights? How is taking over a precinct in Seattle supporting equal rights?

Bunkerboy should really stick it to the Fake News Industry, by shaking hands (no gloves, that would be cheating) with everyone that attends one of his rallies. That would show America how The Left is lying about the risk. Make the rallies as large and frequent as possible.

Yes. (Not my friends though, my friends are mostly keeping distanced. I don't know anyone personally who has protested.)

If someone can protest and stay socially distanced and masked, I support them.

If they loot or riot, they are part of the problem, and are diminishing the message of the many people who are trying to effect needed change.
