So as soon as Biden gets in we will be getting "more testing", mask mandates, all of Trump's immigration orders rescinded and critical race theory


how much more testing do we need? We already have more testing than any other country. Tests should be reserved for sick people and those exposed to positive cases ONLY. Why test healthy college students three times a week. Why test people who are traveling if they have no symptoms. (And if they are, why are they traveling if they don’t absolutely have to?) No bribing people with sports gear and gift cards to get tested. Reserve tests for people who really need them and leave everyone else alone.


mask mandates? For how long? Viruses don't just disappear even with a vaccine. Most places have them already. And I thought it was unconstitutional, Biden said it himself. So why is he contradicting himself?

More contact tracing?

It's only effective at the very beginning of a real outbreak of disease (think Ebola in Africa). It's literally like trying to fill a water bucket with no bottom now

rescind all of Trump's immigration orders. So open borders are good? And I thought we were in a pandemic, so wouldn't having less people coming over be a good thing?


Critical race theory. So basically force companies to teach their employees that they are all racist and have racist thoughts


Hey if Biden is the president, I respect that, and you get what you vote for, but I get the impression a lot of his plans won't be popular and he is going to be giving 2022 Republicans an entire platform to run on.

Good post! Yet the left voted for him anyway.

The trifecta of overregulation with federal mandates, open borders and critical race theory? You sure know how to trigger and anger a conservative . Without Trump how will we stop it .

If he indeed becomes President, I will give the big middle finger salute to all of his endeavors you have mentioned. So will more than 70 million other Americans......

It would be funny to see all those politicians who push lockdowns and masks physically try to enforce those rules in ghettos: I mean actually physically send them into the rough neighborhoods and tell the residents of Harlem, Watts, South Chicago, etc to keep their masks on when outside or to walk up to groups and tell them they must stay 6 feet apart if they don't live in the same household.

Doesn’t sound like much a proactive plan I would agree

If you have testing for people who aren't sick or asymptomatic then it would be good to isolate them so they aren't spreading the virus.

Great idea.

We can call them interment camps...just like FDR did in 1942.

For people who aren't sick and don't have symptoms why would you test them exposing them to medical providers in the first place, and worse why lock down and quarantine them?

Why are we giving any credibility to a tweet?

We don't know the source.

My guess is it came from Hunter's laptop.
