Because of Trumps failure/crime, we may have to sacrifice our economy in order to survive.

Trump lied about the virus for over a month. He was not interested in testing because he wanted to hide the truth from the American people. This led to the virus spreading out of control throughout America. We still don't know how many of us are infected. It must be in the millions by now and it is still spreading.

To open up our economy any time soon would kill many more Americans. It looks like this is going to be a long, hard, painful road. There is only one person to blame and we all know who that is.

Figuring a way to get out of this mess is our primary concern. Getting rid of Trump is the first step as demanded by the First Rule of Holes ... when you’re in one, STOP DIGGING!

I have been advocating that regardless of what shithead wants, we should REFUSE to go back to work until WE are convinced that it is safe and maybe make some demands of the regime when they start getting really nervous.

We essentially have a general strike in effect, we should make the best use of this situation to demand changes necessary to get beyond this.

My first demand... resignation of -45, the VP and McTurtle for starters.
