Does anyone know what the plans are for the Dem Convention? I haven't heard a word, and the time

is getting closer. Talk about an event that crams people really close together! I'm just curious. Can't imagine how they could do something like that by phone or online?

How much of the mishandling and extra killing rump is doing because Putin ordered him?



EVEN if there is a DRAMATIC turnaround you still cant have large gatherings until there is a vaccine.

I haven’t heard anything (to answer your specific question), but there’s no wonder about that. Nobody knows what’s going on right now, and nobody knows what shape the nation will be in come July.
