The pandemic will not go away as long as Trump is President. He just doesn’t give a shit. Over 1000 people died again today.

> Jay you are just stupid. You think Trump can wave a magic wand and end this? You think Joe Biden can fix this? I can guarantee one thing for sure, you have no solution! Sorry Rod, Trump will win re-election and you will have to move to Cuba I suppose. Children also need to return to school

> You are right that Trump (nor Biden) can fix this. The American people COULD if they would quit being selfish children and wear a mask, distance, etc. Other countries remained OPEN all through this but their people co-operated and got it under control without destroying their economies. They worked together and for each other. In our culture it’s everyone for themselves and to hell with the next guy. And that’s why the rest of the world bans us from their countries and I can’t blame them. And why the virus will stay and spread.

> Perhaps not directly but Trump’s pathetic “leadership” is. Trump disbanded the pandemic task force, did not restock inventory, ignored the early reports, down played the issue, promoted and continues to promote snake oil cures, insisting our children return to school in person (and we see how that is working) and now, other than spouting how great a job his administration has and is doing addressing COVID-19, basically ignores the pandemic. And let us not forget tear gassing and attacking peaceful protesters. Perhaps Trump is not, yet, shooting people on 5th Ave but he is close.

Our local government isnt doing anything about this and wont even force people to wear masks in public. Photos from yesterday show the President of the County Commissioners and a State Delegate in Cumberland in a group of people without masks. Cumberland Mayor posts photos on his social media out at bars posing in groups of people without masks. Its no wonder our numbers are jumping up when the message we get from our leaders is that precautions are not necessary.
