Eight more months of unimaginable carnage:

It looks like the earliest we can remove Trump is next January. The economy will be in shattered pieces by then.

If the death toll continues at the pace it is at now, By January, We will surpass the total of Americans killed during WWII. I see nothing right now that can stop this from happening, except for this.

Medical experts find treatments or a vaccine that will stop the American people from killing themselves on a massive scale. That is a long shot.

Watching the news yesterday, seeing how the American people were behaving where places were trying to reopen, convinced me the American people, in general, cannot save themselves, protect themselves.

They have taken control of the CDC and the messaging. How do you know the vaccine won't kill you? Why should it be trusted?

If it’s rushed, not enough proper testing, and if Rump raves about it, I would question it, too.

What I meant to say was if a properly tested, safe, credible, and accurate vaccine comes out. Like in a year and a half from now. Will there be very many people who will refuse it?
