    Everything else is speculation and fake news. No proof.
    What , exactly, is acceptable proof, to you?
    Only proof approved by the Democratic party might seem to be the case.

      Slave,he doesn't believe anything unless it is from an approved website of his likeing. Otherwise he will label it fake news. Problem I see is there are too many extremist websites on both sides of the equation. So it goes back to who you can trust,not who do you want to beleive..

        One of the best things since Trump entered is the acceptance of all different types of reporting......this country has been brainwashed and controlled by corporate interests which controlled everything the people believe through a limited 12 channels or so on the TV.
        One part of the whole "hate Trump panic" is that those who controlled the limited media have lost some power. Not all...But they can't stand to lose any.
        As far as I'm concerned we might be better off if they lose a whole lot more.

          Even in the midst of a world wide crisis...Even in the midst of a national emergency where lives will be lost...It all boils down to...Red Team/Blue Team...Unbelievable!!!!

          Even if you believe this is an overblown crisis and people are over reacting...No one,and I mean no one knows where this is going...3 weeks ago Italy was reacting to the crisis the same exact way we are reacting now...Now they have dead bodies in places they won't go into because of the quarantine!!!!!

          We're playing catchup after not restricting entry of infected people,the best approach to avoiding an epidemic..Even Anthony Fauci backtracked on letting symptom free people in,and now is advocating draconian restriction like no entry from the EU...Most countries who are successful deport or restrict entry by a 14 day quarantine on arrival...Since we are closing the barn door after the infected are in,all we can do is minimize spread by 'social distancing' and self quarantine...80% of Americans cannot deal with a true emergency,will avoid expensive medical care when mildly sick,thus continue spreading the virus,and will have to work to survive,while many other countries pick up the costs for quarantines,testing,and treatment for their citizens...Really exposes the need for universal healthcare like many industrial countries have...

          Besides letting infected people into the country,there was no monitoring of temperature,like every Asian airport until it was to late,and no quarantines of arrivals,as is now the norm in Australia,New Zealand,Israel,and most Asian countries...At best now we can slow the spread by shutting down any mass gathering of people,and hopefully we can contain the infected patients steaming into our hospitals and not overwhelming our healthcare system,unlike Hubei initially,then Iran and Italy...Johns Hopkins says the fatality rate is grossly inflated,many more people are infected than confirmed by testing(maybe 500,000 in the U.S.),which reduces the fatality rate 50 fold or more...

          We just DON'T KNOW how bad it will be...The H1N1 Swine flu pandemic in 2009 killed over 500,000 globally...COVID-19 may kill 35,000 like a mild flu or 350,000 in the U.S. alone...We do know that children get sick and spread the virus but it's not fatal to them...Only the aged and those with underlying lung,heart,or immune disorders might die even with adequate medical care...There are at least 16 to 17 million Americans over the age of 70 in this country...The goal of course is to slow the spread of the virus so it can be handled by our healthcare system...In China,Iran,Italy,and many other countries their healthcare systems were 'overwhelmed' by the Coronavirus...Let's hope it doesn't happen here...

            The planes were delivering the Virus in early January. It can not be stopped or contained. A shutdown is Nessessary to slow the infection so we don't over run the hospitals.
            I hope your ready.

                Places like Singapore and South Korea who've been aggressively testing their population and isolating cases is starting to see a downturn in infection rates...That is where we'd like to be at...But we aren't...We are in the opposite position...The one you really don't want to be in...

                If you have to work to survive,including most of the 30 million people uninsured which will swell with job losses during the shutdowns,you might catch and spread the virus eventually...Tulsi Gabbard and others have advocated a $1000 a month payment to keep people at home quarantined,but helping them survive and not further spreading the virus...Some doctors also claim serum from recovered patients speed the recovery,presumably due to antibodies against the virus...In countries successful with the virus so far,the government has picked up the costs of testing,quarantining and treating their citizens...In the US of course,medicine is only about making money...But not to worry,our ruling elites will be safe...Politicians in Washington have private doctors and hospitals ''just for them'',plus the facilities set up for a nuclear disaster stocked with food,medicine,and YES,'Toilet Paper' for years of isolation...

                  As far as the senate taking off for the weekend? I agree that they should be in Washington till the shit stops hitting the fan. That is why they get paid.
                  Trump could have said unicorns with the sparkle farts would make everything fine and it wouldn't matter. At this point he couldn't sell ice cubes in hell. Trumplethinskin will find someone to blame, but not using his usual method. He can't point the finger as both hands are around his throat on this major choke. People want straight answers not his line of BS and lies. I received straight answers today. Finally.

                              Pennsylvania closes all nonessential businesses for the next 2 week's as per Governor Wolf

                              https://www.wfmz.com/news/area/penns...4194e7698.html

                              HARRISBURG, Pa. - Gov. Tom Wolf ordered all non-essential stores, restaurants, bars, and programs for seniors in Pennsylvania to close for two weeks over coronavirus concerns.

                              The closure takes effect at midnight.

                              Essential services, like grocery stores, pharmacies and gas stations, will remain open. Trash collection will continue and and medical facilities will remain open, Wolf said.

                              Restaurants will be takeout only.

                              Wolf said to make contact with as few people as possible. The fewer contacts you make, the less likely you will spread the virus to others, Wolf said.

                              The Pennsylvania Department of Health announced 13 new positive cases of coronavirus as of midday Monday.
                              Of those, one is in Bucks County, six are in Montgomery County and two are in Monroe County.

                              There were also two more in Philadelphia and in Allegheny County.

                              Monday's numbers brings the statewide total to 76:

                                My son has a friend who owns a restaurant in town and they are selling their steaks and chicken and ribs on Facebook. Tough times ahead...
