Walmart shuts down (Waltons), small town America shuts down.
So, the majority of Americans did vote against Trump, so they will be livid after having to live with him for 4, very unhappy years.
The rich (see above) will be livid because they will be losing money.
The red states will be livid because it turns out Covid is real, and medicine/ PPE shortages will result in people being turned away from the hospitals as doctors also get sick/ population rolls into the hospitals. Looks great on TV to see people falling down dead on the str.
Trump will be forced to ask the truckers to resume. Or the Republicans and Democrats will 25th his ass out of office.
Which in actuality is the single best thing that could happen to this nation.
Pence is put in place to finish, and ordered by Koch, etc. to get it done.
DPA to acquire the trucks. (Can't really hide them, can you?)
National Guardsmen to drive them.
Truckers lose trucks as gov uses their trucks, but doesn't pay them for it, so they can't make their payments.
Government incentivizes the unemployed to become truckers.
And that's just off of the top of my head on how to work around this. And there are much smarter people than me that have planned for these sorts of situations.
Ronald Reagan? Air traffic controllers?
Doomed to repeat history, if you don't know it.
One last thought - Americans don't like sore losers.
Want to make Biden popular in small town America?
Acting like whiny little babies (like Trump, ironically), is exactly what will make Biden popular.
Because right now, he's not popular. He's just NOT Trump.
But hey -
a united America is what we need right now.
And the truckers acting like this, is exactly what we need.
Plus, it's 2020, and misery loves company.
Bring it on.

Please sign and retweet/share on social media this petition to get the World Health Organization to clearly acknowledge that CoVid is airborne (they haven't fully), and be crystal clear about why they are urging masks and ventilation: covidisairborne.org/home
Here's why:
Person A walks up to you on the street, and says - "Here, wear this mask."
Or, Person B walks up to you and says, "Hey - when we breath, talk, or sing, we're kicking out tiny contagious particles of Covid. If you wear this mask, if you happen to be sick, you are much less"
likely to make your parents sick. AND if someone else is sick, then you are much less likely to get sick yourself."
Which person do you listen to?
Right now, the World Health Organization is Person A.
the primary driver of CoVid.
📌 There are huge numbers of private nursing homes and it is ludicrous to suggest that those for-profit operators would pay their workers to live on-site. (Plus, those workers have families, are single parents, etc).
Americans are 38% obese.
40% hypertensive. How do you provide focused protection to almost half of the country?
How?
You won't be replying, because you can't answer that.
Because it is impossible.
But you know what is possible?
Reinfections. Genomically proven because #FactsMatter.
1/ A long thread on masks. Even DIY Masks work - and how to get the best mask possible, even if you have to make it.
I address some common misconceptions, touch on the science, lay out how to DIY Masks with information from aerosol scientists and engineers, and give solutions
2/ to problems that come with wearing masks.
Note: the eyes can also be a target for the virus, so sealed goggles are recommended. And you don't want to get any mask wet, so wear a faceshield as well to protect the mask from rain.
No mask is 100%, especially if you have
3/ unmasked people around you. Even if you have a mask on, avoid indoor locations and social distance. Although, there is at least one recorded case of CoVid being contracted within 15 seconds in a semi-outdoor location: archive.is/PJrdl
