What Will Be Forever Changed?

I hope maybe we’ll have a little more tolerance and patience for each other coming out of this.

It doesn’t matter how wet the ink is. The bank bailout proved one thing ….. if you have jobs the economy will roll. No jobs, economy stalls.

Jobs in the 20’s, 50’s, 2000’s is what drives the economy. It will also drive the economy this time around.

The great TP caper of 2020…..

Well I thought this might change, but apparently not.

I thought that people across America would start to believe experts, science, and facts on issues like these. WHO, CDC, Epidemiologists, etc. I was hopeful that people would open their eyes and ears and listen to the people who have dedicated their lives to researching something like this.

I thought that might happen, instead, people still continue to put their trust in a fat orange blimp that spews verbal diarrhea on camera any chance he gets.

THIS is what happens when the so called leader of our country makes a villain out of the scientific community. People will believe whatever he or his network says, even when it puts our entire country at risk. THIS is the danger of that type of rhetoric and propaganda. I HOPE this changes how people form their opinions on important matters, but it probably won’t.

Fox News

Overall, we rate Fox News strongly Right-Biased due to editorial positions and story selection that favors the right. We also rate them Mixed factually and borderline Questionable based on poor sourcing and the spreading of conspiracy theories that later must be retracted after being widely shared. Further, Fox News would be rated a Questionable source based on numerous failed fact checks by hosts and pundits, however straight news reporting is generally reliable, therefore we rate them Mixed for factual reporting.

If your news source of choice gets MIXED ratings or worse on their factual reporting, they are LYING to you. To your face. And you are eating it up like a total schmuck. They are laughing at you, and funding their 12th house in the hamptons as you drool and mutter obscenities about Obama under your breath. It’s 100% intentional, it’s masterfully executed, and at the end of the day you are an ill-informed sucker being taken advantage of by people who understand how to profit of off your insecurities and emotions. They are literally crapping on your face and then picking your pockets clean while you smile, wipe your face and ask for another.

CNN is in that bucket as well by the way. https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/cnn/

Screw the news. I’m watching Andy Griffith show. You think we have problems, Mayberry is in crisis as we speak!!

We all need to lighten up. take precautions, don’t over react and just chill and enjoy your families

I tried to listen to MPR yesterday. It was lie after lie. I counted 5 back handed comments about the president and false info on the CV and I had to turn it off. They have really lowered their standards on that show as well. Hard (More like impossible) to find a media outlet that doesn’t have it’s own motives.

Phil nailed it. We are all idiots. He isn’t. Follow him to the promised land of milk & honey.

It’s so hard being this damn dumb, I hope you all feel sorry for me.

Being retired and on a fixed income, my future lifestyle will undoubtably be forever changed. I don’t foresee a market rebound that mirrors this collapse.

Especially Phil

C’mon Phil.

A week ago I said the same thing. This is overblown….people need to calm down, etc.

Believe it or not, I changed my opinion as I got more information.

Have a little faith, brother. The vast majority of us are smart and capable enough to see through BS while also keeping an open mind and changing our opinions.

Phil, Phil, Phil…. very predictable

Best remedy now for our psychological well being.

Challenging though to lighten up when Mayberry is in a crisis, but Deputy Fife teaches us to “brace ourselves when confronted with the adversary”…

Andy, that’s funny stuff right there! Worth the 1 minute 19 seconds look up.

What’s up on Andy? Is it Barney, Otis? Please tell. I’ll have to flip it on quick.

This pandemic may save social security for us younger guys…

I certainly hope you are not insinuating what it sounds like you are.

you can have the virus, shedding it everywhere you go, and have shown no symptoms for up to 14 days. Then you get sick

saying this will pass in 10-14 days is ignorant and foolish.

the whole world is in on the hoax, right?

and people defend this ego maniac liar?

Donald Trump said all of these things.

January 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

February 2: “We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”

February 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA… Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”

February 25: “CDC and my Administration are doing a GREAT job of handling Coronavirus.”

February 25: “I think that’s a problem that’s going to go away… They have studied it. They know very much. In fact, we’re very close to a vaccine.”

February 26: “The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.”

February 26: “We’re going very substantially down, not up.”

February 27: “One day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”

February 28: “We’re ordering a lot of supplies. We’re ordering a lot of, uh, elements that frankly we wouldn’t be ordering unless it was something like this. But we’re ordering a lot of different elements of medical.”

February 28: “Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus, you know that, right? Coronavirus, they’re politicizing it. We did one of the great jobs. You say, ‘How’s President Trump doing?’ They go, ‘Oh, not good, not good.’ They have no clue. They don’t have any clue. They can’t even count their votes in Iowa.” “They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything. They tried it over and over. They’d been doing it since you got in. It’s all turning. They lost. It’s all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax.”

March 2: “You take a solid flu vaccine, you don’t think that could have an impact, or much of an impact, on corona?”

March 2: “A lot of things are happening, a lot of very exciting things are happening and they’re happening very rapidly.”

March 4: “If we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work — some of them go to work, but they get better.”

March 5: “I NEVER said people that are feeling sick should go to work.”

March 5: “The United States… has, as of now, only 129 cases… and 11 deaths. We are working very hard to keep these numbers as low as possible!”

March 6: “I think we’re doing a really good job in this country at keeping it down… a tremendous job at keeping it down.”

March 6: “Anybody right now, and yesterday, anybody that needs a test gets a test. They’re there. And the tests are beautiful…. the tests are all perfect like the letter was perfect. The transcription was perfect. Right? This was not as perfect as that but pretty good.”

March 6: “I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it… Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”

March 6: “I don’t need to have the numbers double because of one ship that wasn’t our fault.”

March 8: “We have a perfectly coordinated and fine tuned plan at the White House for our attack on CoronaVirus.”

March 9: “This blindsided the world.”

Edit: March 9: “The Fake News Media and their partner, the Democrat Party, is doing everything within its semi-considerable power (it used to be greater!) to inflame the CoronaVirus situation, far beyond what the facts would warrant.”

March 10: “It will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.”

March 13: National Emergency Declaration

March 13: “I don’t take responsibility at all”

March 15: “TODAY IS A NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER. GOD BLESS EVERYONE!”

March 16: “I give myself a 10 out of 10”

What I’ve come to realize is you can point out what trump has said and it doesnt matter to trump fans. It’s one ear out the other. I’m not quite sure why but I have just learned to accept it. I think to love trump you accept that he says stupid things and you just dont care. Only thing I can figure. Either way it doesnt help to post his quotes. Wont change anyone’s mind.

What are you talking about? Trump was right on this thing all along. Those quotes were taken out of context. Fox News didn’t say any of that.

He’s going to fix this…big fix…fix like you’ve never seen before. Despite this being a political hoax, and something nobody could see coming, Trump was able to act on his scientific hunch to save millions. We will have so many tests ready to give by the Spring of 2023 that nobody will go untested, some of the biggest, best tests ever developed. 10/10 reaction by Trump on this. Perfection and winning put together in a way only Trump could. People will continue to love Trump, so much love. Business will be boomimg. Jobs, billions and billions… billions of the most beautiful jobs. More jobs than Hillary’s deleted emails. Don’t worry Slow Joe Biden, Trump is going to even get a test to you and reserve an ICU bed if you’d ever need it (so long as Putin doesn’t need it first). MAGA.

After being in the SW when this happened there will be less intermodal trains.
Both the UP & BNSF have mainline rail routes we ran along side of that are fed off the port of Long Beach. The amount of rail traffic on these southern Transcontinental lines dwarf the BNSF line along US 10.
We buy and are way to dependent on cheap overseas labor.

This is one industry that will take a big hit,and may not fully recover.Coal is what brought most Class 1 railroads back from the abyss,and now a lot of that is gone.Same now with less Asian goods,domestic loadings will come back.For every dollar the airlines get,railroads will get less.

Fine how about we call him racist for creating a temporary travel ban to the countries infected?

Hour after hour, day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year. You are lucky there is a two term limit on the Presidency or you would drive yourselves insane trying to take this guy down. At some point please understand you haven’t yet nor will in the future offer the voters a better alternative. You keep rolling the same old tired people out to try and beat him.

Trump isn’t the greatest, but he is the best option for the country we have.

So, knock yourselves out coming up with things he said, things he did, people he strong armed. Keep running up the Hillary’s of the world for him to compete against. Then prepare yourselves for 4 more years of Trump because your party can’t find anything better.

BTW, it’s Trumps fault it’s going to rain today.

There’s a difference between lying and an inaccurate statement. He’s saying what he can, under pressure, trying to keep extremists like yourself from burning this country down with fear and anxiety. Nobody is perfect, especially in an unprecedented situation as this. Im not a huge Trump fan myself, but he’s done well with the economy up until Covid19. I voted for him but I feel we as Americans didn’t get any better options to choose from either. Regardless he’s our guy to drive us through this pandemic.
I can only imagine if Hilary was at the wheel right now…….

Get a life bud. Find something productive to add or find the door.

To the op.
I think the panic buying will be a way of life now. Anytime something scary happens it’ll be quick go buy out the beer and toilet paper.

That would be nice. Unfortunately every time I read these threads my patience and tolerance of others slips a little more.
Luckily I have better things to do so I’m done here.
Stay safe everyone. This shall pass in time.

This may be time for you clowns to actually support our president.

Or mayhaps “Orangeman bad” hijacked her account?

Why call them clowns?

We used to be civil to each other here and moderate outsiders pretty well. Now it’s attack attack, i doubt face to face you’d say that, except that hellsinker guy, he gets punched alot I guess

Take a deep breath before you post and remember we are all doing our best to comprehend this thing.

And as much of a positive note for our President, that also speaks incredibly well to Ms. Omar. You realize the flack she could get from her constituents?

Has anyone noticed Mexico’s response on this? President Obrador is treating it like there’s no problem, cruising around the country for rallies and large gatherings, even having close physical contact with people in the public. I tell ya, when this thing takes hold in Mexico, its going to shred that country. They have less health care infrastructure than we do. Some of them have even been joking that Trump’s wall is keeping the virus out!

My apologies to real clowns.

Why not call out the guy who said “fat orange blimp”?

And yes everything I’ve said I would say it to their face. Only a snowflake would melt at what I have said.

Seriously, no need for me to take a deep breath, my blood pressure is as level as ever. Nothing I have said is hurtful.
