True chances of Trump having it must be 60-80%.

True chances of Trump having it must be 60-80%.

I think we would know this, though. He is the epitome of the demographic that gets really sick with this.

"Il 50-75% dei casi a Vo' sono asintomatici. Una formidabile fonte di contagio"

Most of the words are obvious, but this says that 50-75% of cases in Veneto (where Venice is) are asymptomatic. A formidable source of contagion.

That is a worrisome thing.

We get it, you speak Italian

I can certainly read it pretty well. I highly recommend Rosetta Stone.

Being evil really boosts your immune system though.

Casinos are asking to be bailed out. I agree. No act of God should nuke our industries.

The public reaction on Twitter so far is no way. "You should only help working people"

Caesars by itself employs 65,000 people.

The public is dumb.

USA closing in on 1000 new cases today. 18 dead.

At what point do the Republicans need to force Trump out of office? Pence has his problems but he’s a former governor and I assume he learned some things about what to say and who to listen to during a disaster. No Republican is getting elected in November, best they can do is lay a foundation for Romney or DeWine to be able to compete in 4 years.

Italian might be the easiest language to learn, in my opinion. Maybe that's just because I know some Spanish. But I struggle far more when listening to Portuguese and especially French.

Install Biden now with agreement to do an election in 2022. Who could have a problem with that?

Romney could make himself a frontrunner simply by pushing hard for this $1000 one-time individual relief fund. The number of people that will keep from having to smash grocery store windows might number in the hundreds of thousands.

As part of the deal, put Bloomberg back in charge of New York. I just solved the coronavirus.

Those languages, especially French, have weird pronunciations. Both are easier to read if you know Spanish than speak/listen

Assume you're joking. I think Trump has botched this but you can't remove a guy for doing a bad job unless it's at the ballot box. We are already agitated and on edge. Mix it with more than half the country owning guns and it's a toxic storm. You'd have no country left and it would truly be Armageddon.

The curve in Washington state may be flattening so Trump may luck the fuck out here.

Positive news: Campbell Soup and Clorox were up today. I used to eat Campbell's as a child. My momma would make a grilled cheese to go with it for me. Pretty much a staple along with Chef Boyardee and Kool-Aid.

We are gonna make it through this.

Dr. Fauci, Dr. Gottlieb, great governors like Inslee and Cuomo, pretty much the entirety of the private sector now, Mr. Navarro, the Fed and Mr. Powell, Mr. Mnuchin, Mr. Cramer . . . the list goes on.

We've got a whole Hell of a lot of talented people in the US, and they're working to kick this thing's ass.

I believe.

West Virginia has been rejecting tests because "they don't have any cases." The stupidity of that circular logic boggles my mind.

I mean, it's literally exactly this logic:

AxeS, I am going to be deleting some of your posts for your own good. If I don’t do this, someone else will ban you. I would prefer to not have to do this in the first place, so help us out here.

I’m trying to think of how this can be good, but it‘s rough. Maybe they pipe in reaction noise like a 90s sitcom.

Two guys at a time beating the shit out of each other while isolated from everyone else: this is now too risky.
