I really don’t know how anyone can believe anything the Trump campaign says



I wouldn’t open my door for a random knock during a pandemic would you?

I wouldn’t knock on people’s doors during a pandemic would you?

I agree with you.  Wouldn’t do it and wouldn’t be likely open the door to a stranger.
I certainly think it’s foolish
But ground games are always important


In other batshit crazy news coming from Trump

Preisdent Trump says "the schools should open" but "I think the teachers are a different story. And if a teacher is in a certain age group, I think they shouldn't be going in and probably they're going to have to wait until the thing goes by. They'll have to wait."


So schools with 1/2 the staff?

I can't speak for Trump, but when people with half a brain in their head are talking about schools opening, they're not necessarily talking about opening full time for everyone. Fairfax had a choice between hybrid and distance learning, full time wasn't an option.

I know Maine and Vermont are opening schools, at least in a hybrid fashion. And they've got the rates low enough and are rural enough and hopefully have enough testing and tracing in place to make it work. Most places, including NoVA, don't.

Taking the election in isolation from wether Trump will concede etc this is a good article on where we are

It’s amazing that no matter what Trump does his bedrock support stays with him...he isn’t just shooting someone on Fifth Avenue but tens of thousands of Americans and yet his support doesn’t budge


It’s just not enough...but nonetheless remarkable

Not a smidge, they are going down with the ship
There is an element with that group that can’t ever admit they are wrong

The New York Racing Association has been a trainwreck for years. People of my ilk will not rest until Maggie Wolfendale's head is on a pike!

Triple ? has long triggered the ??? emoji in UBB. A quadruple ? will do the emoji plus the fourth question mark. Nothing new.

I’m doing fine, crossed the NY border last Thursday and have been enjoying some distanced r&r. But I’m hearing they are closing the border?

Although  while I was gone, apparently Biden is against God??
