I can say that at my hospital, numbers of covid patients are going up now. Admitted a couple of them today, we have several intubated, and twice the total number we had 2 weeks ago.

They are preparing to postpone/cancel elections in November. Typhoid tRump is many things, but stupid about ways to screw everyone to get what he wants is not one of them.

All good questions. It feels like Trump has gone off the deep end, but his re-opening his 'rallies,' in Tulsa on Juneteenth shows the cynical planning behind his moves. I think his intent is to bring the country to the verge of race-war (Charlie Manson's old dream.) Are the rednecks willing to die for this grifter ? Maybe - maybe not.

No maybe about it. He reads the polls and the people who know are telling him this economy is going to take a long long time to recover and it will not be business as usual. Many jobs will not come back, ever. Many businesses will not come back, ever.

Desperation and stupidity
