Trump: US Won’t Close Over Second CCP Virus Wave

President Donald Trump on Thursday said the United States will not shut down if there is another COVID-19 wave.

“People say that’s a very distinct possibility. It’s standard. And we’re going to put out the fires,” Trump told reporters when he was touring a Ford manufacturing plant in Michigan. He was asked about whether he’s concerned about a second wave of the virus.

But Trump added a caveat, saying that “we’re not going to close the country,” and “we’re going to put out the fires.”

Trump expressed confidence in the United States being able to contain future CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus outbreaks.

“Whether it’s an ember or a flame, we’re going to put it out. But we’re not closing our country,” the president said.

Currently, data shows that more than 90,000 people in the United States have died from the virus so far. Starting in March, a number of governors have imposed strict lockdowns, leading to layoffs and business closures.


Trump made the remarks while touring the Ford plant, which is currently making ventilators in response to the pandemic.

But over the past month or so, all 50 states have started some level of reopening, including New York, the state with the most COVID-19 deaths.

The number of Americans applying for unemployment benefits in the two months since the coronavirus took hold in the United States has swelled to nearly 39 million, the government reported Thursday, even as states from coast to coast gradually reopen their economies and let people go back to work. More than 2.4 million people filed for unemployment last week in the latest wave of layoffs from the business shutdowns that have brought the economy to its knees, the Labor Department said.

That brings the running total to a staggering 38.6 million, a job-market collapse unprecedented in its speed.

The number of weekly applications has slowed for seven straight weeks. Yet the figures remain breathtakingly high—10 times higher than normal before the crisis struck.

And the continuing rise shows that even though all states have begun reopening over the past three weeks, employment has yet to snap back and the outbreak is still damaging businesses and destroying jobs.

 

He'd better be right

 

The People have spoken.
They do not think CCP Virus will infect them.
"Currently, data shows that more than 90,000 people in the United States have died from the virus so far."

Just be happy.

 

I like the borders closed me !

 

Trump didn't actually CLOSE us down, he only closed down international travels from abroad, the STATES are the ones who closed down and restricted all movements to some degree! Trump played it correctly by letting the States decide what was best! Any issues now and it's the States on the hook for them, Not the Fed Gov, Brilliant move, and the absolute correct one!

If we get hit with another wave, it's already set up to block all foreign travels again, and this time, the fucking STATES can focus on the issue instead of attacking Trump claiming he was slow or inept in his official response! Mean While, N.Y.C took weeks to shut down public transportation, but were the first to blame trump for the outbreak and lack of action! And lets not forget Former El' President'e Obummer loudly claiming his righteousness and indignation at how much betteror he would have done things, all the while he fucked up twice and left us hangin far worse going into Covid-19! If this had been Canckles, we would all be dead by now!

 

No doubts here.

 

Nuke China Now!!!

 

The end game is the blindly loyal useful idiots have dug their own mass graves, are no longer useful and need to be disposed of.

 

Oh well, Got casks of powder, lead and primers, let them melt it all down and we can dance in the ruins, next morning we will see who is really ready to take on this brave new world we will find ourselves in!

 

For what it's worth the who says person to person transmission shouldn't be a concern.
WHO: Data suggests it's "very rare" for coronavirus to spread through asymptomatics

 

Right, and none of us need masks, and the drugs the president and rich folks are taking are ineffective, & etc. Sure, we believe the WHO, & CDC. They wouldn't lie to us!

 

I don't need or want to wear a mask, I also don't need or want to take drugs for something I don't have.

 

Most of us Monkeys are smarter than the those idiot " experts" with the CDC and the WHO. I decided long ago to do what I thought was best and the hell with what the foolish experts said. So I wore a mask from the beginning and then months later the CDC said to wear masks. F*ck'em and feed'em fish heads!

 

Went to town today, I was the only one wearing a mask and the Count is up to 30 new cases of the CCP Virus.

 

Where I work we are required to wear masks, but most have them around their necks or have their nose sticking out. It wouldn't be so bad, except that one county south of us is a hotbed for the CCP Virus. I wish that they would set-up roadblocks!

 

We had a DAV Meeting today, it was time to elect Officers, we had the required number of members for a vote, all officers were voted in as the official list stood from last year.

It was a landslide in support of the Chapter.

Short meeting, most wore mask, distancing as required and a good bunch to support Vets.

Adjourned

 

Counts up to 32.
