Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

absolutely......starting with his " this virus is a hoX and fake news perpetuated by the democrats.
MORON!!! He still has no clue as to what he is dealing with or the severity of it. Reality is still a stranger to him. It is pathos and it is tragic.
Trump never said the virus was a hoax

Actually it was 25%, IRBS. I just checked. Hmmn...........well the economist was of a younger generation. Maybe he never heard about the Great Depression. 8O:lol: Or maybe he's just given to hyperbole. I guess time will tell if his forecast comes true. Either way, the US is looking at some really disturbing unemployment numbers.
As is everyone else.

So the U.S. has twice as many per capita?

Actually I goofed the math up for the US. It has about 1.5 X as many as Canada per capita. Keep in mind that the US has 10X the population and almost 9X the population density of Canada. So by comparison, the US numbers aren't horrible or way out of line by any stretch.

Over 1000 deaths in the US and 39 in Canada. Help me out with the math here.

Trump says a lot of things, half of which I don't think he is able to keep track of himself. He has a one track mind right now- re election in Nov. If there's anyone left there to elect him. :)

Well, Walt is correct, sort of.

Trump never directly called the virus a hoax he said it was the Democrats new hoax.

You can take that for what it is.

Well, the Economist predicts Canadian recession half as severe as US, despite collapse in price of Canada’s under-pipelined oil.

U.S. cities have acute shortages of masks, test kits, ventilators as they face coronavirus threat
Nearly 90 percent of U.S. mayors who responded to a national survey on coronavirus preparedness said they lack sufficient tests kits, face masks and other protective equipment for their emergency responders and medical workers, while 85 percent said they do not have enough ventilators for their hospitals. The survey findings, published Friday by the U.S. Conference of Mayors, are a warning that U.S. cities and towns could be quickly overwhelmed if community transmission of the virus spreads out of control.

Didn't Trump say millions and millions of masks etc would be available SAP?? Or is that like: "the check is in the mail"???

Be prepared for another depression just like the Hungry Thirties! I already started preparing for it, mentally. Does anyone know where Justin will get more money once the wad he's handing out now is spent? At some point soon we are going to have to start repaying it, or he'll have a triple E credit rating.
Jan 14th Canada sold $300B USD in bonds.

What luck, it's like they knew they'd be needing it as we near April or something.

How on earth did they know?
