The latest evidence of the delicate, sometimes impossible line that these governors have been forced to walk came Tuesday, when the president took swipes at New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo during a televised town-hall-style program on Fox News. “I watched Gov. Cuomo [today] and he was very nice,” the president said of the man steering the state hardest hit by the virus. Cuomo had, moments earlier, conducted a press conference in which he scoffed at how insufficient the administration’s help in procuring ventilators had been. “He had a choice… He refused to order 15,000 ventilators,” Trump said, referencing a recent column by Betsy McCaughey, a hardened Trump supporter and longtime health-care policy crusader on the right. “It says that he didn’t buy the ventilators in 2015 for a pandemic, established death panels and lotteries instead.” Trump would go on to insist he was not blaming Cuomo. But the magnanimity was short-lived. “It’s a two-way street,” Trump said of having the feds help states with a coronavirus response policy. “They have to treat us well, too.” Link to comment

Danny Bateman Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Georgia is choosing between this and a spineless Trump lackey in Doug Collins in a Senate special election. They have a jungle primary which means top two voter getters regardless of party compete for the seat in a runoff. Here's hoping the Dems get have someone outperform one of them because both those options are awful. Link to comment

People are acting responsibly to not potentially spread a virus by going out. This is like saying an employee is scared to speak his mind during a staff meeting because he doesn't interrupt his boss. No, he's not scared to speak his mind, he is just smart enough to know he'll have to wait to talk. 2 Link to comment

Danny Bateman Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I mean my god some places they just say it out loud. Ask yourself if a party who relies on people not voting is likely to turn around and do things that are good for people. 2 Link to comment
