Trumps plan to open up America, simply put.

[shockey80]

Phase 1. Kill people.

Phase 2. Kill more people.

Phase 3. Kill a whole shit load of people.

Without massive testing, tracing, all us here know many people will die if we open things up. Trump doesn't give a shit.

1. He is willing to trade an unlimited number of dead for a better stock market

and especially since it is currently hitting black and brown communities he thinks "they don't vote for me anyway"

little does this moron realize that it is soon going to ravage the hell out of his red states and rural areas.

then there goes his last areas of support.

2. Phase 4:

Walk over the dead bodies and order your aides to flatten out the rug.

[treestar]

3. The media goes on letting him control the narrative

All about reopening when it ought to be about testing.

[Nay]

9. When every day they should put a big photo of the bodies in trailers on the front page

of their goddamn newspapers and TV shows.

[Pobeka]

4. Stock market will respond, but not in the way he thinks.

1. People will still be afraid to go out, especially when deaths re-spike.
2. Killing the consumers in a consumer based economy, well, you can where that leads.

5. We just hit 1% of the population having been tested

According to the Johns Hopkins site and about 20% of those were positive. But since the tests were being rationed to those who had risk factors or symptoms, I’m sure that is inflated. There’s just not very much data yet.

7. 1%? Well, time to call it good and get back to normal then!

[gristy]

6. I'm not convinced testing+tracing is going to do it either - not with an Ro of 5.7

How are other countries faring with this approach? That will be important information.

[ooky]

8. But, he has decided to have the governors do his dirty work, and bully them into

compliance with his evil wishes.

Who will be the first Republican governor to become a murderer? They have seen the outbreaks in other areas and know how fast it can spread. So, if they "open" without taking the proper precautions and cause another outbreak in which people die, they are murderers, just like Trump.
