    1. @Pete Lind every THREE days? … dude… it’s even worse than that… my Cousin is a Nurse, here in Michigan, & she’s been forced to wear the same mask, for 3 WEEKS… she now has the CoronaVirus & i can ONLY HOPE, that her & her kids will b ok.. 🥺💔

    2. @SockerBooperKids Sue still doesn’t understand the difference between Self Quarantine and Quarantine Slavery.

    3. @Lelynn Miller U can’t but others can. We don’t see too many Conservative Women in String Bikinis.

  1. I usually take these things with a grain of salt however I have a really good friend that works in a hospital in Detroit he said it crazy there and getting very scary with all the people coming into the hospital with symptoms and r very sick

    1. I have a friend of a friend of a friend who says its “ crazy and sad “
      Im so tired of hearing this
      Since when are hospitals happy places ?

    2. @You Tube I agree anyone who goes into a hospital should be expected to die the doctors and nurses too!

    3. Lol I was just making a comment put I ask everyone who came on here post negative comments towards other people when I feel like I have negative energy I put it towards helping my fellow disabled veteran for anyone that wants the number I can give you your local VA hospital volunteer coordinator number and u could help elderly veteran that needs food and their medicine that can’t get it right now I implore you to do something positive with that time just imagine how much good you could have done with that 5 minutes. U claim to be great Americans prove it by calling the number and proving it by doing something positive for people that need u instead of wasting that energy to be negative

    1. mchlsalas There were Confederate Flags & Nazi symbols & assault rifles in Michigan. Others channels carried it yesterday. So you don’t have to tell me that I didn’t see what I saw yesterday.

    1. @john emeigh Really? So it is “statistically impossible” for a group of Nobel prizewinners to be smarter than a group of Trump supporters? You need to look up a few things. Or maybe go to a protest and pick up a 6-pack of Corona.

    2. @LardGreystoke Dem supporters are not a group of Nobel prize winners. That’s a joke, right? I didn’t get it.

    3. Moore is obese, He has a lot more to worry about. He has money and can sit on his fat behind Unlike many many people that he is referring to. Why doesn’t he use some of his many millions to help some of the poor people that are hurting very badly. 98% of the people get this virus will recover within a couple of days. Those people who are elderly and have 1 or more medical conditions should be the ones to hunker down and protect themselves, after all we are talking mostly retired folks. This should be a wake-up call for all smokers and pot smokers and drug addicts and chronic alcoholics.

    1. the problem is that these people will get infected and take up hospital beds that are most likely already full capacity

    2. @Bovine One You infect people the same way everyone else was infected, by standing next to an infected person and if 300 people stand next to each other at one of these protests it’s going to continue spreading to others. That’s why we shelter in place. I don’t like it either but, I have to act responsibly.

    3. David Williams – If you don’t leave your house then how will these people infect you? They aren’t going inside your house.

    1. @Berty Fin I am so, so sorry you weren’t given a chance to go to high school. It’s sad when you people are so ill educated and sadder still that social media allows you to show that off. Such an embarrassment you are to yourself. And yet you wonder why everyone swipes left on you at every level all the time. Pitiful.

    1. And Rosa Parks was a great lady and a true patriot while those trumpians are traitors to the human race, insisting that their tattoo, hair dye, jet ski etc is more important than human life.

  2. Like Lindsey Graham said in 2016 “If we nominate Trump we will get destroyed and we will deserve it “.

    1. @Don Jonsen your moms a freak don she did a bukake with 35 Japanese business men and she ate all of it bro

    2. Graham and the rest of the Trump senate harem led by McConnell, voted to acquit. They and everybody else knew Trump would be a grave danger in a crisis, and voted their self-interest anyway. Disgusting.

    1. @shix1979 this is the problem, isn’t it? The Trump administration has no time for facts or truth. Everything is spin. It’s anti-science, anti-intellectual and irrationalist. It deals in “alternative facts” and conspiracy theories. The Trump cult exists in a different world to the rest of the human race. Anything that challenges the cult or its leader is labelled “fake news”. There are no words for how dangerous this situation is. The rest of the world can see the madness that has descended upon the country. But the cultists have surrendered their reasoning powers. Where the rest of humanity sees a pathological liar, deranged narcissist and conman, they see an orange Messiah. Terrifying. But the paranoid nature of the cult means its followers literally cannot see just how badly misled they are. It’s tragic for America and its allies. Nearly 50 000 Americans dead and there are still cretins worshipping at the Trump shrine, honestly believing he’s doing a good job! It’s a mass delusion that is resistant to facts, reason and experience.

    2. @Ash Roskell I’m looking at the 40 thousand on Newport Bch in CA, and they all look like Leftist Liberal democrats. Not one of them has an American flag on theri cars.

  3. Yes, these protesters are paid to do this. Your country is screwed under this administration! I don’t think you can ever survive this! This is worse than the Coronavirus!

    1. It’s a bad situation. On one side you have the virus on the other side I can tell you people are hurting. When the stay at home orders are lifted there will be a lot of business who will not reopen especially small business. These people know if they don’t lift this stay at home orders soon they will have no job to go back to and probably will exhaust there unemployment benefits when it’s over .

    2. We were Not Paid by Anyone more Fake News…We don’t like Big Government Telling us Stay Home
      Uh Vai Morrer 🙏🔥

  4. Americans need to ask themselves why European countries can pay workers 80% of their wages to stay at home and America refuses to?

    1. eris smith That military war machine protects western democracies across the entire world. Without it who do you think the major world influencers are? China and Russia. These countries do not believe in a free society. American military power is the one thing keeping them in check. It’s not UN meetings or eloquent speeches made by world leaders or rock stars and celebrities preaching about world peace. It’s the more than half a trillion in US tax dollars spent every year that builds the finest weaponry and trains the finest soldiers in the world that prevents global tyranny.

    2. We cannot. There is an upper limit to the 80%, and it is 1800 USD a month here in Sweden. BEFORE tax. And there is a time limit to even that. 🙂

      Hundreds of thousands have also lost their jobs, so plenty were not given anything to stay at home. They were just fired.

      Same goes for Denmark…and the top tax rate is 72%.
      We also pay 25% sales tax on everything we buy.
      The Danes even have a 200% tax on cars, when you buy one.

      So, how does 1800 USD a month sound, considering that you have paid almost everything you earned in taxes, you entire life?
      Does that impress you?

    3. @Bryan Pinto calm down!! Dummie America is a Corporation disguised as a country owned by the Rochilds in Europe you FOOL

    1. and–excuse me for body shaming–but so many of them are obese! Not only are they at more risk of dying, but a haircut isn’t going to make them attractive until they lose 50 or 100 pounds.

  5. Please, continue protesting and continue gathering as a whole because, when November comes, Trump will not have any backers to vote for him. Implode yourself,

  6. “Covid doesn’t cancel the constitution” – What does that even mean? Covid-19 really doesn’t give a toss about any constitution and it would be more than happy for the stay-at-home orders to end as it will then spread further and quicker. How can American’s think they are the greatest nation in the world when they have protesters that think like they do with their cheerleader in the White House?

    1. @Martin Day It’s just some stupid catchphrase somebody thought of to put on a sign. They are bored attention whores and have nothing better or more productive to do during the pandemic.

    2. @Aaron Ruben They’re connected to a right wing group financed by the DeVos family
      and Trumps ‘LIBERATE’ tweets gave them a validity they do not deserve.

    3. @Martin Day You Trump lovers and Trump haters are one in the same. Most of us in the real world are indifferent. Politicians come and go.

    4. Actually, I believe that protecting the general welfare and providing for a common defense are both provided for in the opening words of the constitution.

    1. Yep. Russia orchestrated it in the first place – Trump’s election, not the virus. Trump is well and truly compromised by Russia. They helped him because they knew they owned him. He’s very easy to push around is Trump, if you’ve got the right buttons. He can flip-flop at any time of course, but in the end, he will act in the way that he thinks serves him best.

  7. These clowns quote the constitution like they do the bible only reads what sounds good to them. Try reading both cover to cover you may learn something.

  8. I am so tired about this pandemic now. I have already back to work at a local gas station. I saw people come in and out without wearing any protection everyday. I am so afraid that I could get infected. Does anyone know where I can buy some PPE?

    1. No need to be scared.
      I am 51, from Scandinavia. Corona is much more wide spread here than in the US. I caught Corona quite early. Coughed and had a little fever. That was it.
      Then I was fine.

      99% of the deaths here are people over the age of 75, with serious illnesses. So, unless you are over the age of 75, with serious underlying illnesses, you’ll be fine.

  9. “To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason
    is like administering medicine to the dead.” – Thomas Paine
