Anyway, I am one of those liberals your mother warned you about. I’m not a fan of President Trump. I do try hard to find the good in some things he does. Like the tax cut was nice. So I don’t hate him, and yeah, despite my dislike for him, he is my President. We must play the hand we’re dealt. Anyway, I watched a little of both of President Trump’s rallies. Based on the estimates of the crowd size, together would be a little over 20,000 people between the two venues.
Most were not wearing masks (no I don’t want to get into a debate regarding masks, that’s been beaten to death), or social distancing. Of course I worry about everyone at those venues. They put themselves at risk for getting COVID-19. But it’s a free country, no biggie there. We all have freedom of choice. Good thing there. I worry President Trump will get sick, after being around so many people. I do not want anything bad to happen to him. He is older after all, and not in the best of health. Being an admitted liberal, please do not paint me with the same broad brush and think I would ever want something bad to happen to him, or anyone for that matter. In fact, it may surprise you to hear I pray for him occasionally.
I’m wondering how those of you here in Rogue Nation feel about all this. Are you worried too? Do you think he’s taking too much of a risk? I realize he’s campaigning, but I think he should refrain from anymore rallies for awhile. What do you all think? I’d love to hear your opinions. Thanks.
Why is he not in the best of health?
A link to that please?
As for the virus, according to the CDC and the left, the right to assemble for a cause is more important then the virus.
Will he be exposed and get the virus?
We all eventually will.
Will he live through it?
The probability is high... especially because he is taking measures to proactively combat the effects of said infection.
Am I worried about him dying?
Technically yes... the idea of a Pence Presidency is rather appalling to me.
But the probability is really pretty low.
And you are not the Liberal my mother warned me about.
My mother was an actual Liberal from the 1960's.
You know... social safety nets OK, get the Government out of my life otherwise, balance the budget, no wars without due cause, peace and pot for everyone.
