I'm honestly baffled as to how anyone can continue to maintain the pretense that this pandemic has been anything more than a MASSIVE nothingburger when every day that passes makes that more and more clear. Using the official (likely very inflated) numbers, this virus is on track to cause about as many US deaths as occur each year from a typical flu season. And as with the flu, the very old and the very sick will make up the overwhelming majority of those deaths. Not only should we "reopen the country" immediately, we should acknowledge that closing it in the first was place was an insane 100-fold overreaction. Seriously, what the absolute fuck?! How does anyone not see that? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
Well, if you're taking them, then I'm taking them too. Still, strap in, because the left will be reeeeeeeeeeing that Trump acted too slowly and then acted too quickly. You know it, I know it, everybody knows it.
