It’s an orange syrup, and you have to see Dr. Ronnie Jackson for your daily dose.

Fewer and fewer are planning to reopen physically. That’s not going to do wonders for Kudlow’s crystal ball gazing success.

I can’t say where the economy is going. But here’s a fact: Pennsylvania had cut its daily new cases rate to under 400 per day when it had its general so-called reopening. Since then the rate climbed quickly and steadily. Now it’s over a thousand daily. We closed down, as a nation, but we never put the national testing and tracking system in so that we could control the new cases. We put our fingers in our ears and sang “la la la la la” instead of doing that. The virus is simply out of control.

Watch Kudlow change his stance on the economy immediately, should Biden win the election.

Hell with it. I can get gummies from a trusted source easier than that.

I’m going to reserve judgment until we hear from Gary Busey.

Kudlow believes what he is saying about .00001% as much as I do.

Yeah we had three days here where the new case rate dropped below a thousand and I was so hopeful but it has gone back up. Yesterday it was 1200 plus.

The country needs to shut down and start over and it won’t. So the economy is going to be as shredded as people’s lives are.

What metric is he using … What about Georgia … everything is far from sunshine and lollipops there … and Louisiana and Mississippi and Alabama and South Carolina …

Is he thinking that hospitals being at around 102% of capacity is some sort of sign of success?

You don’t want who, I mean what Kudlow’s been ingesting.

Let’s just say when he spouts this stuff on TV, this Baghdad Bob level garbage is for an audience of one. Don’t know why anyone else needs to be subjected to it. Maybe the shows can take a cue from the attempted baseball season and give him two blatantly false statements, then yank him off the air the third time he tries to say up is really down.

Last I heard, last week, 40+ states had worsening Covid-19 statistics. Only the tristate region was doing more or less okay.

Or that Texas has asked now for a second National Emergency declaration because of Hurricane Hanna that hit right where COVID is ravaging the state the worst?

There are now 149,000 US fatalities due to covid-19 with estimates of over 87,500 of them due to the actions and inactions of President Trump and his administration.

This includes the lack of leadership from the Senate Majority leader, Mr. McConnell, who owns these deaths as well. These were people with lives and families and dreams. And they died because of politics played by the most corrupt and inept Republican in the history of this country. And his party simply hid behind him wringing their hands (but not too much) wondering just what can they do? What frauds. They are criminals. They tried nothing, they did nothing, they said nothing as they watched others die. This is criminal. But they have mastered happy talk for sure. And FOX News is among this group as well, and it’s documented by their taped shows for posterity.

Well, then, we’re down to simply denying reality. Figures, in a post-truth world that’s your go-to guy.

Yeah and we’re all trapped here too - nowhere to go because no other decent country will let us in.
