    BTW, you can rewind the live stream. Just making sure you know.

    death counts are still low now for 2 weeks.
    ICU bed space isn't high in Texas for COVID -it's the elective surgeries and normal post ops.

    we are testing about 600k a day. a positive rate of around 7%- NC did a serum test and found 1.5million has antibodies.

    It's running it's course, but the infections are lower age and people in good health..

    Of course the power junkies and TDS crowd still want to blame trump, and shut it down again

    Fox just reported that he plans to "decry the left wing mob" tonight.

    You're wrong. Again.

    Anybody want to bet that tomorrow trump will tweet "everyone thinks I deserve a place on Mt. Rushmore, although I would never say it."

    The left wing mob does not understand what they are, so they won't understand Trump's comments about them. You can't teach dogs how to read.
