Steve Mnuchin Urges Americans To Live Dangerously And Travel The Country

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin is encouraging Americans to travel around the country this summer.

“It’s a great time for people to explore America,” Mnuchin said on Fox Business News on Monday. “A lot of people haven’t seen many parts of America. I wish I could get back on the road soon.”

One problem: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention strongly recommends avoiding all nonessential travel to protect against COVID-19.

“Travel increases your chances of getting and spreading COVID-19,” the agency warns on its website. The “CDC recommends you stay home as much as possible, especially if your trip is not essential.”

1. I want to visit my relatives in Arizona.

They'd probably murder me if I made the trip out there this year. Wait until a vaccine people.

2. Good idea, Steve, you go first. n/t

3. Mnuchin should travel more.

Getting his head out of his ass would be a nice trip for him.

7. Haha! Good one. nt

4. You First Stevie Boy

No more private jets. You fly commercial, in coach, with you trophy wife.
If you do it 2 dozen times & don't get sick, I'll begin to consider it.
Until then, shut the hell up!

5. "I wish I could get back on the road soon."

So do we, munchkin, so do we. The problem is there's no place far enough away, and you keep coming back.

6. Get your bucket kicked on Route 66.

9. I really wish I could know what things were going to look like two months down the road.

My prediction is that the people who go back to normal and ignore all precautions are going to have a lot more casualties than those who continue to stay home, social distance and wear masks. There are a lot of idiots in this country, but not all of us are dumb enough to think that the coast is going to be clear just because the republicans want it to be.

12. Not to mention there are states that have 14 day quarantines when you cross the border

Could be a longer trip than expected.
