Doctors, microbiologists, immunologists, epidemiologists & other scientists keep saying covid is dangerous ... but the cool guys at my bar who only went to high school, avoiding science class, tell me it's not dangerous at all.

It's just too hard knowing who to believe anymore. Image
When the guys you went to high school with, tell you that science is stupid ... you can always sneak a casual look at the data. They probably won't even see you do it & still think you're cool.

So ... how are we doing today? Let's take a peek. Image
Well ... it looks like the number of cases in the US are on the rise again. It might be Hunter Biden's fault or could it be an artifact resulting from Hillary's emails?

It certainly CANNOT be a result from Trump's #SuperSpreader rally tour of the US! Image

THREAD:

Trump’s complete failure with #COVID19 turned what could have been a mild recession into a full blown economic crash—one that we may not fully recover from for many years.

How badly has @realDonaldTrump failed on the economy? (1/12) Image
The economy was weak heading into 2020 because of the failure of the #GOPTaxScam. Trump claimed his tax cuts for corporations and the already-rich would “skyrocket” the economy & deliver 5-6% GDP growth.

Reality: 2020 began with economists predicting growth of just 1.8%. (2/12)
Growing consumer debt was also slowing the economy’s potential heading into 2020. As The Wall Street Journal reported: “consumer debt, not counting mortgages, has climbed to $4 trillion—higher than it has ever been even after adjusting for inflation.” (3/12)

The #TrumpCrash by sector:

The leisure and hospitality sector, which had the worst job losses in March and April, is still 4.1 million jobs below where it was in February and gained only 174,000 jobs in August, significantly fewer than the more than 600,000 it gained in July.
Jobs in education and health increased by almost 150,000 in August as schools began to reopen across the country, but that number was still lower than the prior month’s gains. Manufacturing followed the same pattern — gaining jobs, but at a slower rate.
The retail and business services sectors saw bigger gains in August than July, though both are still below their February employment levels.

11.5 million jobs have been lost since February. Millions of jobs are gone forever. #TrumpPandemicFailure

The Failure Convention: With no record to run on, no ideas to offer, and a party that can't even be bothered to write a platform, the President of Death, Despair and Devastation asks America for four more years. #FailureConvention #RNC2020 thedailyedge.substack.com/p/the-failure-…
As the #FailureConvention begins, @MeidasTouch declares it’s time to #EndTheMisery.
He still says he shut it down? 430,000 passengers--equal to the population of Minneapolis--flew in from China after the outbreak began. In February, more people than live in Phoenix flew in to NY from Europe as Trump downplayed the risk. #FailureConvention thedailyedge.substack.com/p/trumps-big-c…

First they came for my neighbor, the immigrant, & deported him, breaking up his family, but I didn't say anything because he was just a neighbor.
#DontLookAway
Then they came for the refugees, separated their children and jailed them, but I didn't say anything because they were not my children.

#FundOurFuture
Then they took my friend's land to build an ugly, destructive and useless racist wall, but I didn't say anything because it wasn't my land.

Inside Donald Trump and Jared Kushner’s Two Months of Magical Thinking | Vanity Fair vanityfair.com/news/2020/04/d…
Alex Azar attempted to talk to Trump about the outbreak on Jan 18, yet Trump derailed the convo by ranting about vaping instead. #TrumpOwnsEveryDeath
Peter Navarro argued *mid January,* that Trump needed to shut down incoming flights from China. Trump didn’t do it until 1/31, and still the ban had gaping loopholes. Jared was in Trump’s ear saying Dems were hyping the #Outbreak for political purposes.
