Tens of millions of sequestered people with no immunity and still residual cases of COVID that they can be exposed to. It will drag on for god knows how long.

it appears there are people still unaccounted for.

All my Trump loving Rellies have no clue as to what that train wreck heading towards them looks like.

And if yesterday's first hand observation of those whom thinks it is only a Flu,well,that train left the station months ago.

This catastrophe belongs to Trump. He is buying it with the thousands of dead his dismantling of the global pandemic infrastructure made possible.

More like the Civil War. If the Casinos in Vegas were not closed I'd be checking on the odds of a bet on a Military Coup.

We’re certainly having a horrible year, but we’re also suffering from a horrible person who either has no idea what he is doing—a distinct possibility—or is doing his best to destroy this country.

He has botched it from the beginning and ignored the warnings. He has blood on his hands for the needless deaths. He is committing genocide in front of us and is too stupid too realize he will be responsible for killing his own supporters. A lot of Magas who were told it was a hoax by him and Fox are not gonna be around to vote for him in November!

And the economy is in a complete free fall because of the Great Quarantine. None of this will end well.
