  1. Donald Trump demands you sacrifice your children immediately and return to work…..

    1. @Dave Schultz well that would work if we had a leader in America like they have in Europe. They’ve actually flattened their curves. Why is it that you don’t mention that?

    2. Nah im good man. Ill happily work remote and keep my family close by. But yall have fun with that.👍

    3. They want to reopen schools and I still can’t find a Clorox wipe. Parents and teachers supply schools with these. Where are the hand sanitizer? Lysol? I didn’t see government supplying the schools then and I don’t see them doing it now. Head masks? Gloves?

    4. CNN Correspondent has a job and says she wants her kids back in school. Anyone that does is Selfish. She’s willing to risk her owns kids lives, does that mean that everyone else has to risk their lives or kids lives?. What about parents out of work and are still scared for their kids and family members lives? How will the kids stay six ft spart? What about the recycled air? Who is going to drive the petre school bus dish? Where are the brains,? This disease is fierce and doesn’t cate about personal. desires. You just try forcing kids K-12 to keep a mask on, it won’t work. Tell her to pay for all the hospital bill and funeral costs. Kids will start dropping, and so will the staff, bus driver going into cardiac arrest while driving, or asthma attacks, anxiety attacks. Stupid is as stupid does. Wear a mask at P.E., LUNCH ETC REALLY. That’s a dumb idea to reopen schools. Barf bags on buses now. Projectile vomiting, coughing, sneezing, runny nose little Sammy. Eating off of each others lunch trays, swapping food etc. Sanitary needs really? Petre School buses 🧫🧫⚰⚰. The needs to reopen schools AFTER a vaccine are alot and would maybe be ready by 2021 August, maybe not. How can people not even care, especially regarding the children? They are kids. Kids are getting it now and there is no school, just imagine if school opened.

      Your link is from May of 2020, three months ago. Deaths are occurring in younger and younger people since that old report.
      There are more then one strain of the covid virus now, due to mutation,. Such as a flu virus with more then one strain.

      Your not very well updated.
      Since April 2020 135,000 have died from the * trump covidiot virus.
      Adults can be carriers of the virus and spread it. Question:: Can children passing the virus on to other children, to their caregivers, teachers! Other children with unknown underlying health issues❓ are you willing to send your children to sit in a crowded class room and find out.❓children catch seasonal colds, and flu viruses, lowering there own immunity. Can they fend off covid.

      Children with COVID-19 generally have mild, cold-like symptoms, such as fever, runny nose, and cough. Vomiting and diarrhea have also been reported in some children.

      Children with certain underlying medical conditions, such as chronic lung disease or moderate to severe asthma, serious heart conditions, or weak immune systems, might be at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19. Call your child’s healthcare provider if you are worried about your child’s health or if your child

  2. First it was sacrifice the elderly to the economy , now it’s send the children as sacrifices to the economy .this administration is a joke.

    1. @ROY Markovik and I’ll take a guess that the person you knew how underlying health issues

    2. @Catania Momma Italia,did you go to Trump university?because comparing flu to Corona virus is a very stupid thing to say, you’re a uneducated trumpanzee..😂🤣😅😁

    3. ShutUpAndDance! -He actually would, he’s a malignant narcissist. Absolutely no one else is of value to him.

  3. Governors and schools must not listen to this man who says he’s not responsible for the mishandling of the pandemic. If anything happen after reopening, he’ll throw all you under the bus.

    1. its people like you who want to strike fear into us the people and liberals such as you fall for this hoax of a virus! why dont you talk about the great things president trump has done such as the rebuilding of the economy and crackdown on immigration?! oh wait its because your sinister agenda is to make our president look bad! nevermind then!

  5. *Add children to the types of human beings Trump doesn’t care a hoot about*

    2. @Mark Warren oh so it’s ok for Trump to do it then? Jeffrey Dahmer ate people is that ok too? See how dumb your what aboutism is?

    3. @cap crunch if anything we have the technology to educate people and people still decide to be stupid and support Trump

    4. @Mario Stinger kind of like how we separate kids from their parents when they break the law and go to jail?

    1. @David Turner the fact that he sits in a classroom with 40 other kids and every time there is a cold, half the class gets it, and while Covid-19 isn’t the common cold, it’s just about as contagious. Kids acting responsibly and wearing masks for an entire school day also seems unattainable, but that’s just someone who went to public school and had kids in public school. There are adverse effects from catching Covid for kids, but being asymptomatic and bringing it home to the family will just reach the disease further into our homes and keep it looking for the people it will kill. Can we keep classes to 10 or less? Can we keep them all 6 ft. apart? We don’t have the classrooms or teachers. I am not saying every city is under the same duress at the moment, but any place it is spiking, I definitely wouldn’t send kids back to school.

    3. Are you an educator? Here’s the thing. There is *NO WAY IN HELL* should kids be going back to school as long as the COVID19 cases are going up.— I go from school to school K-12. Those little ones are walking bacteria-germs-virus. SOMEBODY… somewhere better come up with a damn good plan BEFORE September……AND it’s kids I the inner city who are suffering from not being in school. They’ll also be the ones to die first.

    2. @Pelosi’s Twat Stinks I was referring to trump and you act as if I was referring to you personally. Why?

    3. @John Burkes roofl no you dont… If youre going to lie, make it believeable at least…
      1. The polls where right in 2016, you just believe gop nonsense. Hilary won within the margin of error and trump fluked the college with 70k votes across 3 states… Thats what actually happened in 2016…
      2. This doesn’t require polls, voter turnout in every election is skyrocketting among democrats EVERYWHERE and poc are NOT supporting republicans or trump in the elections that have taken place…

    4. Noreb 50 -100 years of Black and Minority communities run 100% by democrats.. Not an elected Republican for 300-500 miles.. For ALL people, White, Black and all persuasions, all getting along very well, NOT living in a dystopian democrat monopolized administrative and legislative chit hole, it’s like watching a fish tank where the fish all eat each other. Care to explain?
