'That's really ignorant': Anderson Cooper destroys Las Vegas mayor as she argues to reopen casinos

Published 21 mins ago on April 22, 2020
By David Edwards

Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman on Wednesday struggled in a CNN interview to defend her desire to immediately reopen casinos.

During the interview, CNN host Anderson Cooper seemed mystified by the push to reopen the Las Vegas strip without the necessary measures to mitigate the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

At one point, Goodman disagreed with a study which found that one person at a restaurant in China infected at least nine other people who were eating nearby.

“This isn’t China!” Goodman exclaimed. “This is Las Vegas, Nevada.”

I see she is an "Independent" who declined to support either HRC or Trump in 2016, according to her Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolyn_Goodman_(politician)

In other words, a bit of a whack job.
