    Meanwhile, we have 1800 people attending church services in Louisiana.

    We will pass China's total # of cases in a few days and still don't have a solid plan to move forward.
    Im just glad Trump is the President. This is 100% genuine. Hear me out.

    If Hillary was telling conservatives to stay home or quarantine themselves and close businesses, they would be having gatherings just to give her a finger. Churches certainly wouldn?t be closed on Sunday.

    At least with him as President I?m hopeful that some of the people that would normally not trust the government are actually listening and doing the best they can.

    I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you forgot sarcastaricks?

    You are only seeing what you choose to see if you think any of this is true. Every single bit is opinion, one-sided and narrow-minded. Simply blinded by politics and it's pathetic to even go there. You might as well be in congress arguing about money instead of helping the people you are supposed to be working for.

    I'm not saying Trump is doing better than Hillary would be doing but you certainly can't tell me Hillary would be doing worse.

    And just for the record, I didn't vote for anyone and damn sure wouldn't give my vote to either. So spare me any speech about defending one or the other.

    You are missing my point. I'm past blaming anyone for where we are - I want to move forward. Based on the last two weeks - conservatives started out thinking this was being blown out of proportion. That is not arguable. I'm sure we all had siblings or parents that are conservative who were mocking this virus or not taking it serious. Their attitudes changed as soon as the President was telling people to stop gathering in groups of 10 or more and was taking swift action.

    I don't think some conservatives would have listened if it was Obama or Hillary telling them to not go to church.

    This is not a unique situation. Think about when we go to war, if a Republican is President - democrats don't trust his motives. If a democrat is ordering drone strikes with no real oversight, democrats turn a blind eye. They wouldn't if it was a republican.

    Ahh I get your point. At least the impeachment crap isn't going on in the middle of all of this too. Regardless of where you fall on that.

    The fact that said people who were playing it down changed their attitude simply because of what the president is saying one day is the bigger problem. The fact that they don't think for themselves and just choose a party to follow instead of paying attention to what the hell is going on is the problem.

    I don't understand how anyone can have a blind allegiance to one side or the other, especially when it comes to something that is 100% out of every person's control like the current situation.
