Memorial Day Crowds Raising Concern Amid Pandemic | Morning Joe | MSNBC

  1. Remember one thing America , when Americans needed its president the most, he bailed on us. He left it to the states. And now when we are approaching one hundred thousand American deaths, which is mostly caused by his very negligence, he is busy entertaining himself with golf.This is no leadership, this is a weak, heartless coward. Come nov 2020 ,Vote this clown out!

    1. When this started it was a federal government problem.
      Then when it all got too hard, tRump handed it to the states.
      Then when he wants something (time to play golf again), it becomes a federal matter again.
      And now HE has demanded the country re-open, when the infections and death numbers start to rise again…HE will blame the states. “No, I take no responsibility at all”.

  2. You know, we’ve been hearing political historians warn of the “death of the Republican party” for years now… who knew it was going to be literal?

    1. @Tosca Tattertail are you saying that democrat run sh**holes are filled with conservatives?🤣

    2. You know most of those people were Democrats right? NJ is primary democrat. This is not a political sampling of who is ignoring social distancing. The media doesn’t point that out though because it hurts their narrative. Which is another reason people are bailing on the social distancing thing, For the average American the pandemic now looks like nothing more than a way to tear the country apart more via political divide. people aren’t even seeing it for what it is anymore they’re just seeing it as politics. When you have a half of a country that doesn’t even vote, they’re not going to listen when the whole thing has been politicized.

    3. Tosca Tattertail that’s not accurate at all. It’s not even remotely accurate it’s people who just feel that the media has done nothing but politicize this and they just are over it. I live in a very democratic state and people are done with this self isolating as they see on the media is it being polarized they’re so sick of it they don’t know if upper down left and right what’s the actual account who died with Covid who died of Covid everything changes on a daily basis people are just done.

  3. Cases will soar again in a week or two. Let them get what they deserve. #COVIDIOTS #MAGAMORONS

    1. “In – the last time/days there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. Jude 1:18-19 ESV

    2. Problem is you’ve been saying that every two weeks for six weeks and it doesn’t. There have been no cases of cities that have gone over their maximum hospital capacity including NYC. at its peak. No where in the country is the virus seriously spiking so much so that the media has been turning their lens on Brazil because they are going through their spike. Gotta keep up appearances.

    3. @Vega Nona Either the virus has already surreptitiously travelled the length and breadth of America and a high percentage of us are now immune or we are going to see ‘New York’ death rates in many densely populated areas in just a few weeks if social distancing is not rigorously adhered to by everyone. New York was not a one-off; it was an example of what will happen elsewhere if the normal interaction in a large city is not curbed – there are numerous examples from tracing data showing a single infected person can infect ten people in just 30 minutes [when in a moderately confined space such as a restaurant] and the ten without knowing they are infected can then infect 10 more people each and so on. If just one in a hundred are vulnerable and end up in hospital it can still run into thousands in just a few weeks and many hospitals are even now reporting being close to overload despite most people interacting with significantly fewer others than normal.

  4. I went back to work last week and nobody here is wearing masks or social distancing? Most of them say it’s a hoax even after I tell them I lost a family member to the virus? WTF is wrong with people.

    1. Tsubadai Khan I’m in Australia, happy with our response, agree with everything you say, except the mask thing, in my travels still nowhere near a majority of people out and about are wearing masks.

    2. I’m so sorry for you Stephen, your risk of getting the virus has increased ten fold because of the pure selfishness of the mass. At least no one can say your a dumb American.

    3. Even smart people struggle with sacrificing for others when the enemy is both invisible and probably harmless but they bite-the-bullet, imagine what it would be like if they had caused a tragedy [and they investigate and then trust the evidence until it is properly challenged]. Stupid people don’t have that luxury and they tend to rely on the ‘wise tribal leader’ to guide them – unfortunately the tribal leader is a sociopath and a moron and that is a bad combination.

    1. @Susan Sullivan You’re comment seems very narrow. Our country is in this state because of Congress; both parties; mostly Democrats. Trump is fixing it and few are aiding. In spite of his accomplishments, no man can fight an invisible pandemic virus that came out of a Wuhan bio-weapons lab; yes, that is what it is. Dem supporters are intellectually dishonest so, this a waste of time. You’re another hater.

    2. @john emeigh yeah look what he did for a great job from januari til begin april. Than blame China and a Wuhan lab. But if this is all true, why is the dead count on the state New York the highest in the world

  5. Talk about being our own worst enemy !!
    If you don’t follow through the complete cure regiment ….
    THE VIRUS WILL COME BACK WITH A VENGEANCE !!!!

    1. @Nana Tothree But tRump was urging churches to open up. He has bought into the herd immunity idea and a whole lot more people are going to die before that works.

    2. @Robby the mass amounts of deaths in this country and the fact that in many states the number of infected has actually risen says that this virus is dangerous. Babies and children are dying.

    3. @Crystal Giddens people should have to sign a paper saying they or any member of those family will not use a hospital bed when they get covid.

    4. And it’s going to with behavior like this..Make sure you have enough food & shelter for 1 year next time. No joke. My Mom said in 1918, when they would come home from a funeral another family memeber would pass from the virus..We don’t need a war to get rid of America.

    1. Nun Ya exactly. If that’s the case they can stay home for Zika, west Nile, HIV/AIDS etc etc foh

    2. They will go out, ignore all the mask and social distancing rules because they have rights.
      But when they catch the virus, which we can argue was their own decision, they will expect others to look after them.
      They should have a tattoo on their head that says “I chose my rights over safety”. Then when they go to hospital, they can just get sent home again.

    1. Thanks to a concerted raid on Deutche Bank executed by the American IRS and the German police in November 2018, we now know how much the 𝐟𝐚𝐤𝐞 billionaire, 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐱 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫 and self-proclaimed 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 Donald John Trump took Deutche Bank for.
      Deutsche Bank’s first transaction with Donald John Trump involved a modest renovation loan for 40 Wall Street, a property he controlled back then.

    2. The 𝐟𝐚𝐤𝐞 billionaire, 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐱 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫 and self-proclaimed 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 Donald John Trump did little to merit Deutsche Bank’s involvement after that until the early 2000s, when Deutsche Bank agreed to loan him as much as $640 million for a Chicago project, the Trump International Hotel and Tower.
      When the financial crisis landed in 2008 and imperilled that development, Donald John Trump sued Deutsche Bank to avoid paying the $40 million he personally had guaranteed.

    3. But Deutsche Bank and the 𝐟𝐚𝐤𝐞 billionaire, 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐱 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫 and self-proclaimed 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 Donald John Trump agreed to settle, with Deutsche Bank extending a loan from its private banking division, thus making it possible for Donald John Trump to pay back Deutsche Bank’s real estate lending unit with Deutsche Bank’s own money.

    4. The six times bankrupted 𝐟𝐚𝐤𝐞 billionaire, shameless draft dodger, felonious tax evader, compulsive liar, creepy pervert, depraved adulterer, sleazy serial groper, 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐧 abomination and self-proclaimed 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 Donald John Trump is an enthusiastic and highly experienced globalist in all matters concerning organized crime, corruption and collaboration with foreign powers.
      The numerous ongoing investigations into Donald John Trump’s lifelong criminal career and foreign collaboration are focused globally as well as domestically for that same reason.

    5. The Deutsche Bank executive who initially signed off on the $640 million loan to the 𝐟𝐚𝐤𝐞 billionaire, 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐱 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫, prolific liar, creepy pervert, depraved serial groper, 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐧 pawn and self-proclaimed 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 Donald John Trump committed suicide/was “Epsteined” shortly thereafter.

  6. “Give me liberty or give me death.” Apparently these people chose death. Maybe not themselves but maybe those they love.

    1. @Alex Power who needs a report? Common sense says this many people are not going to think one way. Was this a serious question?

    2. @Chris Near You are really showing signs of insecurity. When’s the last time you got laid (by a human) ?

    3. @Lisa Eischens Well it sure sounds as though I have gotten under your skin,,Good,,you are a perverted libturd and i want to do that.

    4. @Shawn Corbin And how many deaths would ensue before this untested (using Covid-19 as the model) herd immunity approach should kick-in?

      How successful were they in the Netherlands?

  7. I am CONCERN ABOUT THE NURSES, AND DOCTORS WHO WILL BE CONTAMINATED WITH THE REPUBLICANS SWAMPS

    1. *< yet another stupid shallow comment followed by a plethora of stupid shallow comments.stupid shallow must never get old for you people. stupid shallow is the norm for you folks, I guess.*

    2. simple, they put a sign on their door,:

      CLOSED DUE TO DUMBASSES
      WITH COVID-19. Will reopen in late
      2021 – 2022.

    3. Ah, Crystal has arrived, with one of her stupid, shallow complaints about the stupid, shallow complaints of those who make stupid shallow complaints about the stupid, shallow Conman-in-Chief! Haven’t heard from you for a while. You’re doing well, I hope?

  8. Selfishness and stupidity are 2 things American’s have an abundant supply of. And it’s amazing how many people in this country are proud of that.

    1. @Crystal Giddens Indeed they are. Thanks for seeing through the Lieing Leftist Liberal Democratics and their “attempt to pretend” that they actually care about life.

    2. @Nun Ya Nun, good day to you. It is funny to watch these Lieing Leftist Liberal Democrats trying SO hard to pretend that they actually care about life and death.

    3. @Scott Mceathron um, ok you do you I guess. My body, My choice too B. If you think you have the right to infect others with covid-19 then you’re Unamerican by definition. Think about how twisted that is dude, just think about it for a minute. Scenario: I’m going a out my business and you’re going about yours. I’m wearing a mask and you’re not. I don’t have covid-19 but you do (asymptomaticly). We meat and talk fir a while about the weather or whatever. We say bye and it was good talkin to ya. Two weeks later I get sick, then two weeks after that my sons get sick, then my sister. We’re all sick together in a month in a half ( yes many healthy people who get covid-19 are sick or have lingering problems for this long). There is no one to care for us so we have to suffer it alone. My sister with an underlying health condition dies. You gave us US covid-19. Just think for a minute…it’s literally 6′ apart and a mask instead of 6′ under and a wreath!

    4. @Jennifer Jones it would be easier to go up to a Grizzlie bear and pull out his front teeth than to get moron trump supporters to understand. They like him as much as the germans liked Hitler back in the 1930s. In November there all going to be crying fraud when there’s no proof cuz there as dumb as the day is long. They make rocks on the side of the road look intelligent. You be safe and stay healthy.

  9. All MAGA Maggots should have a big party . Lots of hugging and kissing and double dipping from the Trump kool aid bowl that have 1 part bleach and 1 part Lysol . Hug ‘ kiss and enjoy each other !

  10. Even though I know people who lost loved ones to Covid-19, my sympathy is fading away when I see this behavior.

    1. Trump says we are safe. Reopening everything. Every since the call to open happened, I have seen like 60 percent less people wearing mask or social distancing like nothing.

    2. @cuatro cinco everyones a ting like it’s not happening.
      Trumps setting you all up to be infected

    1. When you look at the graph of deaths in the US, there is a very clear pattern of peaking every 7 days.
      It seems like every 7 days there is an event that makes a lot more people than usual contract the virus (and then there is an average period of time — not necessarily a week — until that percent of the population who are vulnerable eventually die).
      Hence the critical point is — what is that event that repeats every 7 days and makes many more people contract the virus? My guess is that this is weekend partying, dining out, getting together with many other people over the weekend.

    1. Ya.. they move on life with the treasures inheritted from their deceased family senior members and thanks god for helping 😬😬😬? That’s possible too

    2. Yeah, they take the risk which is virtually zero for people below 30. If you are scared then stay at home.

  11. I have never been so glad to have a high maintenance back yard as i am now, i get my outside time and don’t have to deal with others in my private spaces. i wish more had this option.

    1. I totally agree. They have lost the voice of reason, or they wouldn’t be out there like a bunch of fools.

    1. Doc Lewis ,Yes instant gratification is more important then your life or someone you love is life! That’s what we call selfish Americans!

  12. “Think of how stupid the average American is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
    ― George Carlin

    1. The Shut Down is Stupid .. It is against Human Nature and against the Constitution of the United States .. people have the right to assemble peacefully .. neither a Governor nor a Mayor can shut down the Constitution.

    2. @BlessThe USA Traffic rules are Stupid .. It is against Human Nature and against the Constitution of the United States .. people have the right to drive peacefully .. neither a Governor nor a Mayor can shut down the Constitution.
