Sure. But the president of the United States has enormous influence. When he repeatedly says you can’t trust the media and you can’t just the Dems and you can’t trust doctors or experts. You can only trust him. It’s no surprise when the easily led are easily led astray.
March 24, 20205 yr comment_467942 Once again today, simply a lot of spitballing and bluster from Trump, when actually facing legit questions.

Even if the stock market doesn't equate to the economy enough idiots believed it. A recession was coming covid or not and the orange idiot gets to own it all.

March 24, 20205 yr comment_467989 And then there's this idiot leader in Iran: https://www.cbc.ca/news/investigates/iran-coronavirus-response-conspiracy-theories-1.5506288 Quote ...Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei proclaimed it a hoax, a conspiracy from the country's enemies. ...Khamenei was suggesting the virus was planted in Iran by the U.S. government. Making matters worse are the religious fanatics there: Quote Complicating the response to the coronavirus in Iran is the clash between political authority and religious practice. Those who are intensely religious may display their devotion by flocking to pilgrimage sites such as the tombs in Qom and Mashhad, where they run their hands and faces over the elaborate metal-work on the gates. ...local imams would have none of it, denouncing the government for insufficient religious devotion. In a video of a massive protest at one of the sites, an imam proclaimed, "Who cares which authority ordered what! Who cares about the world's health!" He went on to accuse international health officials of being "infidels, Jews!" ...religious extremists encouraging people to disregard the instructions of the government when it comes to the type of precautions that need to be taken in order to avoid further spread of the virus. Dangerous levels of stupidity.

March 24, 20205 yr comment_468009 3 minutes ago, The Unknown Poster said: This has to be fake news. Trump said everyone is going back to work and besides, the elderly would rather die than hurt the economy. 50 Dan Patrick, the Republican lieutenant governor of Texas, told Fox News‘ disproportionately older audience Monday night that he and other American seniors would be willing to risk dying from the coronavirus in order to ensure that the economy doesn’t slide into a serious recession. “If you asked my kids if they would rather have more stuff or have their Grandpa and Nanna, they would choose their grandparents with no hesitation. This statement is repulsive.” —Texas state Rep. Gene Wu “If that’s the exchange, I’m all in,” Patrick said of the choice between risking infection and protecting the economy by returning people to work. “I’ve talked to hundreds of people… making calls all the time, and everyone says pretty much the same thing: That we can’t lose our whole country, we’re having an economic collapse.” “My message is: Let’s get back to work,” said Patrick, who emphasized that he is a grandparent. “Those of us who are 70-plus, we’ll take care of ourselves, but don’t sacrifice the country. Don’t do that. Don’t ruin this great American dream.” “You’re basically saying that this disease could take your life, but that’s not the scariest thing to you,” replied Fox News host Tucker Carlson. “There’s something that would be worse than dying.”
March 24, 20205 yr comment_468014 119 During an interview with Tucker Carlson on Fox News this Monday, Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick said that he’s willing to bet there’s plenty of senior citizens in America who would be willing to risk contracting COVID-19 if it meant getting the economy back on track. Patrick said that he, as a senior citizen himself, would be “willing to take a chance” on his survival “in exchange for keeping the America that all America loves” for his children and grandchildren, adding that people he’s talked to say the same thing. The interview went viral and plenty of critics weighed in with reactions, including former FBI Special Agent Ali H. Soufan, who suggested Patrick’s sentiment isn’t unlike the “suicidal death cults” he’s dealt with in the past. “I dealt with suicidal cults before,” he tweeted. “I encountered people who are willing to die for their faith, ideology, race, etc. But, I never encountered anyone who is willing to die for someone else’s 401k. This is a whole new level of craziness.”
