"Lots of people said it would be over 100,000 by now. This administration is doing things that have never been done before. That nobody ever thought of before."

McMaster and KKKemp are going to open things up in spite of a public difference of opinion with Trump.

Is it possible they are willingly taking one for the Red Team?

When the casualties in excess of 60K roll in, they will be the fall guys. Trump blames them, it all looks non-partisan, they fall on their swords and get generous pensions. All according to plan.

We have been averaging more than 2500 deaths per day for the last five days. Even if the death rate drops some, we are looking at 65,000+ dead by the end of April.
