Don’t you just know they all drove their own car there. Maybe they can be like those good ol’ boys in Texas (where else?) that got all liquored up and decided the drawbridge actually could serve as a ramp. It almost worked on Scooby Doo.
Texas, which did it “Trump’s way,” just had over 8,000 new Covid-19 cases the other day. The entire European Union has been holding steady at about 4,000 cases a day (they are doing it the “Scientific Way”).
Even with “Republican Math,” this looks bad. 8,000 divided by 4,000 means that Texas is infected twice as bad as all of Europe. But it is a small continent.
Now let’s look at “Real Math:” Texas has a population of 29.9 million people. The EU has a population of 455 million. So the infection rate for Texas is 26.75 infections per 100,000 people. For the EU the rate is 0.90 – give or take a thousandth of a decimal point. 26.75 divided by 0.90 is 30.
It is 30 times more dangerous to breathe the air in Texas than it is in Europe.
The overall US rate is 11.25 times greater than Europe. We have 25% of the world’s cases with 6% of the world’s population. Any way you slice it, the numbers look bad.
In Pence’s words, “ I want to proudly say of the entire federal team under the leadership of President Trump, we have made truly remarkable progress."
Is this what “remarkable” means? If so, then what is the Republican definition of “Great?”
Newspeak and MAGA.

The most dangerous bar in the world is just outside Mt. Rushmore today. The Governor was bragging the other day about how there won’t be masks or social distancing at Trump’s rally tonight.
Denial has literally become a pandemic. Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with “partnering” status. People go to bars to be stupid in a socially acceptable setting; surprise! too loud, too close, too stupid. What! We have to close the bars again? Those darn sober, liberal, medically-informed, cautious thinkers are at it again.
Have you heard about the COVID parties in the great state of Alabama? A cash prize is awarded to.the first idiot who gets COVID-19 and can prove it with lab results. Survival of the fittest indeed.
If you’re not single now, you may be soon, after visiting that bar. So far, Central Oregon has been dodging the bullet, to some degree. But the idiocy I see in public is pretty disheartening.
If we include the ‘Darwin Award’ candidates – it would also be the the people who drive around railroad gates – But of course not many of them are around any more.
No, the most dangerous bars in the world are in Tuscaloosa AL, where the kids are playing Russian Roulette with Covid-19. Put your money in the pot. First one to get the virus wins the money for their funeral. Fact. Look it up.
Climate change – yes the climate changes all the time. If the Liberals are So worried about it, work hard had changing yourselves, and getting science to work on better cheaper alternatives. Yes the conservatives should still care about the world (and some do) that they would want change. The big thing is to get the corrupt politicians (both dems and republicans) out of office. The problem with that is no sane honest person wants the job. Also, even if there was one, the other side would try to find something to tear them down.
Pandemic – I don’t trust any news site, but I do follow the laws of the land.
Yes, I’m religious, I state I’m Republican. I was going to vote trump, but changed my mind because he like Hillary is corrupt.
I don’t deny that Climate change is happening, but I disagree that humans are the cause. I don’t deny that Covid is a pandemic, I don’t believe that we can stop it.
