    1. But you all are stupid,listening to the lying,made-up news reports of CORRUPT,LYING CNN!! CNN wants our country to fail,wants our economy to fail,DOESN’T matter to all of the hacks reporting these lies,they all are making plenty of money everyday,MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE SUFFERING,that’s what CNN WANTS!!

    2. @lkjdf There it is ladies and gentlemen, the tolerant left, wishing snipers would shoot people who have a different view then him. Despicable.

    1. reelreeler – Because upstate NY and southern Illinois will become NYC and Chicago if you don’t keep locked down.

  1. Governor Cuomo, are calling other state representatives who are about to reopen their businesses while the US just experienced its WORST day ever in covid19 daily death toll, “stupid”???! Well, I guess you’re right!!!!

    1. Joseph James do the f’ing math. Mortality rate is currently 5.4%. Regular flu: .01% so this is only about 50 times greater, but why quibble over that, right? Regular flu, no radical measures, kills about 40,000 yr. Multiply by 54: it’s 2,160,000 people DEAD!

      Some of you aren’t too bright, are you?

    2. @Carlos Dominguez of all the things to comment on, u chose this persons grammar…u fucken idiot! My grammar is about as informal as it gets on here but if u use that as a bench mark of my intellect then u truely are a fool. A suit n tie n grammar doesnt make u smart. It may indicate u are educated but the rational, common sense decisions u make, or dont make, every day will decide ur intellect or stupidity. U, my friend, have just declared urs.

    3. @Maria Carla De Melo actually I just watched a video yesterday that was leaked from the White House conference room. The man in the video tells everyone that they can remove their mask because the case fatality rate is .1%. https://youtu.be/H5lMUj06a3o
      Here’s the video of you don’t believe me

    1. @JediFlavored Soap Coronavirus has been in the US since January… That’s 4 months… And it will be summer in another month… Probably a record hot summer…according to Liberals… basically 33,000 more Americans have to die to make coronavirus worse than the common flu…

    2. @JediFlavored Soap If you divide the suspected number of infected Americans by the number of deaths, the fatality rate comes out to less then 1%… That’s much less deadly than the common flu…

  2. You know the words “we can’t be stupid” cut that trump snowflake deep. He’s gonna tweet about it soon

    1. @Big Bear Hungry Yet you label everyone who doesnt agree with you a liberal snowflake. I’m neither but you are just as dumb as you look if your brain can only handle categorizing people into two pools.

      Sincerely,
      a Republican who will not vote along party lines in November.

    2. Dumb democrats…. you are making it seem like Cuomo is doing something spectacular. I live in NY. The republicans in the state know it isn’t time to open yet, which is why we aren’t protesting yet…. Another 2-3 weeks…. Then you will hear us ROAR…

    3. @Joy Phillips lol aren’t YOU making it seem like Trump is doing a spectacular job? Dumbass supporters were hyping him up with the drug hydroxychloroquine, two of his supporters took it and one of them died, and now test show it does the opposite with treating Covid-19. Just stop

  3. Trump just wants people (workers) to get the economy started so he can use it for his election campaign, and if it goes wrong he will blame the Governor’s for opening up too soon.
    A win win for Trump, but deadly for Joe Public.

    1. Steve Gillham we need to destroy the conservatives. We have more control now. They will be ruined financially and hopefully commit suicide

    2. @Light23K “trump is willing to sacrifice millions to get re-elected.” And he’s hoping that they’re all Democrats. The less living Democrat voters there are, the better his chances of winning the election.

    1. When Tr🤮mp said that _relax_ bit, for some reason I thought of all the allegations against him.
      I believe the women more than ever now…

  4. “If you are truly stupid, you not only do things stupidly, but in all likelihood are too stupid to realize how stupidly you are doing them.”

    1. @Major Minor , Right while Trump had all the Intel about the virus but elected to not take it seriously

    2. Ignatius Dana – Trump was literally a multi millionare as a fetus. All he has ever done his entire life is lose hundreds of BILLIONS of other people’s money. He bought his way out of 3,500 lawsuits. I think you give him WAY too much credit.

    1. @The Greatest Generation L’inglese è una delle molte lingue che parlo. Ti auguro una felice giornata da catchacovid, idiota.

    2. @The Greatest Generation Englisch ist eine der vielen Sprachen, die ich spreche. Ich wĂźnsche Ihnen einen schĂśnen Tag, Idiot.

    3. @The Greatest Generation Angle se youn nan anpil lang mwen pale. Fè yon jou catchacovid kè kontan, embeson.

    4. @The Greatest Generation English is one of the many languages I speak. Have a happy catchacovid day, moron.

    1. @John Crowe Don’t be stupid. Opening garden centers is an easy business to reopen. There is plenty of outdoor room so social distancing is easy, it keeps at least this kind of business from going under, it keeps a certain percentage of citizens working and not on unemployment, homeowners can at least work in their yards and do what they normally do preparing the outside of their homes for upcoming months, etc. You must live in an apartment. 🙄🙄🙄

    2. @R G Nah. I Live in a Big Old Civil War Era Home with a Nice Vegetable Garden.. I’m Really Counting on My Local Garden Center for My Super Hot Peppers.. I Think you Mistook My Comment. It Wasn’t Sarcasm. As Trumps Real Economy Crashes Gardens My Very Well Save Families. I Can Still Get Seeds from Big Box Home Improvement stores But I Can’t Buy Ghost Pepper or Carolina Reaper Plants There.

    3. @John Crowe Lolol….Ok, I take back my “Don’t be stupid !” comment. Happy gardening! 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶

    4. And here in Florida Trump took our government’s balls. so the only the governor can come close to feeling like a man and scratch his balls is by opening bowling alleys This week.

  5. **sir this shop is for mentally challenged people only**

    **i live in america**

    **ok right this way**

    1. Ashley, go read a book because that was a waste of time to post an ignorant hateful comment like you just did. Do you have anything of value to add to any conversation?

    2. Are you stupid enough to believe Cuomo was in quarantine the whole time while being infected supposedly?

    1. Anne McKoy They don’t care about the citizens, they care about their business leaders lining their pockets. 1% of Florida population tested and “DeSatan” bragging about it.

  6. “Don’t act stupid”. Translation: “don’t be a clueless trumptard for the safety of the rest of us. Please…”

    1. @Bobby Tront Democrats will riot and cause mass shootings en masse again, just like they did for the last 4 years, thus starting a Civil War that they will lose with more deserved Democrat deaths than the first Civil War they started over slaves and the coronavirus combined.

    2. @Captain DiTrag sorry, my mistake…however….why don’t you take your self-righteousness and tone it down it down a bit. no need to name call and swear unless that’s all you can do. I heard it from HIM when he came out of the basement a few days ago

  7. Didn’t we all just hear the Georgia Governor admit that he just “found out that asymptomatic people can spread the virus to others” not too long ago?? Now he wants to reopen his state early? Wow what a dumbass…

    1. Flu Season in the United States generally starts in November and peaks in February.

      I do believe COVID-19 will be a slightly more deadly flu varient compared to normal years, but just for reference: The 2017–2018 flu season resulted in an estimated 959,000 hospitalizations and 61,099 deaths in the US alone, with 4000 deaths per week at it’s height.

      Shelter in place will NOT eliminate Covid-19, it’s sole purpose is to help our system catch up so when we do open back up, they’re prepared. May 4th will make it 7 weeks for my state… Time to open back up after that.

  8. “We can’t be stupid”
    Protesters, “we need hair cuts’
    Trump, “Those supporters are listening to me, they’re just smart like me..’

    Hmmmmmm🤔

    1. Dumb democrats…. you are making it seem like Cuomo is doing something spectacular. I live in NY. The republicans in the state know it isn’t time to open yet, which is why we aren’t protesting yet…. Another 2-3 weeks…. Then you will hear us ROAR…

  9. I’m glad Trudeau has closed the border. America’s playing with fire. I feel sorry for the people in that country, a lot of people are going to die.

    1. Stone Frigate I am American and unfortunately we have a clueless fool leading the country. Trudeau has the right idea. Trump doesn’t give a damn about the people, all he cares about is himself and politics. Opening up the country to soon will be a huge mistake.

    1. tangtang wang You guys always trying to rewrite history. Refusing to let foreigners in is not the same as lock down the city.
