Of Coronavirus increases and wakes everyone up. He’s the only one who will be immune from the wrath of the people.

Actually, she reminds me of that homophobic City Clerk who wouldn't issue marriage licenses to LGBTQ applicants.

This one, too, shall meet her doom.

square in the middle of a killer disease outbreak.

Just put them all in a rubber room for a week........

Let's all meditate or pray for a huge rain of humility to pour over our nation very soon.....

If you’re utility bill was cut off whose side would you take? Or would you prefer they all shut up and be friends?

Just saying.....public servants should set the example during a crisis and be civil.

Perhaps I misread it but it seemed like a personality conflict.

I didn’t realize you didn’t watch the video. The man who was angry was right. He was obviously fighting for the public. She just ran away in the end.

soft-pedaled what happened. That guy was righteously pissed for his constituents. Will be interesting to see how this plays out after tempers subside.

I think we're going to see much more of this kind of conflict as Republicans across the country refuse to discuss revenue increases even in the face of world-war levels of economic stress. Trump appears to be doing that religiously to protect his beloved tax cut package.

We're now paying dearly for Reagan, W and now Trump.

There is the bad person using her power to hurt people and the good person using his power to fight back and help the people, and then there’s the rest of the people sitting around doing absolutely nothing with one of them being totally clueless and oblivious, asking a dumb procedural question. It’s so symbolic!
