The Morning RantI can't find it now, but somebody posted a photo of a public swimming pool in a red state (Missouri, I think) and it looked like a normal Saturday afternoon at the pool, lots of people, only these aren't normal times. No, the time of men is over. The Age of Karen has arrived. Anyway, the blue-staters were sputtering and fuming in the comments and it was a bunch of how-dare-they and curses hurled at Trump voters and one guy lost his mind completely and proclaimed that everyone in the pool would be dead in a couple of weeks. Dead! Like we're in medieval Europe and the Black Death has just rolled into town. Get a grip. Meanwhile, the CDC has issued guidelines for schools reopening and it has been observed that if you follow the guidelines rigorously, many schools, particularly private schools, could never reopen. Of course, if you're a progressive, this is a feature, not a bug, but the unworkableness of the guidelines simply means they'll be ignored. They were probably written by a bunch of lawyers using the most well-developed cover-our-asses language they could think of to ward off any possible lawsuits that they think will occur when some parent comes to them and says "hey, I sent my kid back to school and he got sick, so what are you going to do about it?" The point is, the "guidelines" really aren't enforceable. It's not like the CDC is going to be sending out armed squads to every school district to insure compliance. In my county in Oregon, we've had 67 cases total, including 2 deaths, out of a total population of 382,000 One of the deaths was a 60-year-old woman who died of a heart attack and after death they tested her for covid-19 and it was positive. We're doing one of these "phased reopening" things, with 3 stages. We just we into Phase 1 last week, but as far as I'm concerned, we can full reopen right now and I think we'd be fine. I have to wonder if it is in the back of the blue-state governors minds that if they reopen, the first thing they'll get is massive Trump rallies. Which, of course, they'll they want to avoid, so they'll drag their feet as long as possible. They're also fearful of a recovering economy because that will also help Trump. They also think that parading Pokey Joe around in a black mask and sunglasses makes him look like a Road Warrior badass. If I were Trump, I might be tempted to have my media guys photoshop a colander on my face for some publicity photos. Trump as the Lord Humungus would be an awesome meme.
The photos are bad enough, but the videos add another layer of creepiness.
