Fallwell Jr.?

Falwell is probably safe. He probably kept back and observed.

Sen. Mike Lee and now the President of Notre Dame, both at the WH last Saturday for the ACB announcement, no masks and no social distancing.


Is the proper societal protocol to pretend we care about any of these people?

Yeah, you have to publicly state that you hope they don't die.

Hopes and prayers.

Hopes and prayers.   And hydroxy chloroquine.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Video of Utah Senator Mike Lee this past weekend hugging people, shaking hands, at crowded White House Lawn Event.

He is also pictured here 3 days later in his office with Supreme Court Nominee, Amy Coney Barrett, both without masks.

Utah Senator Mike Lee tested positive for COVID-19.

It's flabergasting to see videos of ceremonies with maskless Covid+ people hugging other people.

60% of the country wouldn't hug their own mothers these past 7 months.

The Rose Garden Supreme Court Nominee event last weekend appears to be a superspreader event.

These are not smart people. They are also not anywhere close to being normal.

From the NYT:

Trump went ahead with a fund-raiser in New Jersey on Thursday even after Hope Hicks had tested positive for the coronavirus, the White House acknowledged on Friday.

As the news that Trump had tested positive himself upended the presidential campaign on Friday, new details emerged about how he spent the week. Mark Meadows, the White House chief of staff, told reporters that the president’s top aides learned of Hicks’s test result as Trump was leaving the White House by helicopter en route to Joint Base Andrews for the flight to New Jersey.

“We discovered as Marine One was taking off yesterday,” Meadows said on Friday. “We pulled some of the people traveling in close contact.”

But Trump went ahead with the trip and appeared before hundreds of supporters at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., both outside and indoors. Meadows did not explain why Trump proceeded with the trip to New Jersey knowing of Hicks’s condition, given her proximity to Trump.

At the fund-raiser, where the president came in contact with about 100 people, he seemed lethargic according to several in attendance.


So yes, even as he was asking supporters to fork over thousands and thousands of dollars, Trump was knowingly putting them all at risk of contracting a virus that he himself has called "5 times more deadly than even your strenuous flus."

Wow.

My somewhat educated guess is they got it from Secret Service agents.  More than a few of them have tested positive, and rumor has it that it is fairly rampant at the academy.

Now, when this gets spun as "DEEP STATE COUP" I will laugh.

ayyyyyyyy

ACB is negative.

She had it over the summer, so likely had some antibodies around to help.

I am aware of all of the potential political implications.  I won't dwell on them for a second.   This is certainly nothing to celebrate.   My only hope is that this finally breaks down the resistance of the anti-maskers.   The deniers.   That finally everybody takes it seriously and that everybody starts taking the necessary steps to slow infection.   That the stupidity ends.

I hope I win the lottery. I like my odds better than yours. But love your optimism.

There are still such a large number of people that still don't accept that COVID is happening and this disruption to 'normal' life is going to be with us for a not short amount of time. 

I can see the attraction of these ceremonies and how this happens though.  Group of people that haven't had a lot of personal impact.  Everyone tested, exciting day, outside--low risk right?

One would think that him knowingly putting deep-picketed supporters at risk would turn some supporters off, but by now I know better.
