Trump Pumps Hope in COVID-19 Chaos with Stocks & Science Unsettled

CPT Jack Durish - It's not a financial crisis but a crisis of god? The stock market has gone up and now we overly rejoicing. If 20,000 die and 10,000 would have died anyway is a moral victory? Being exuberant of financial and medical projections is premature. On 2MAR there were 2 cases. On 31MAR there are 177,000 cases. I am going to make some rainbow farts now.

MAJ Ken Landgren - I find it interesting that FDR was beloved for his calming fireside chats during times of great peril. No one castigated him for giving Americans false hope. And I find it interesting that an Army officer wouldn't understand this. It was our duty in times of great peril to set the mood and temper of those who served under us. Interestingly, once while sailing in heavy weather my daughter remarked, "I get it now. You stay calm so that we'll stay calm." Yes, that's exactly what I was doing. But some would prefer that our President run around screaming "The sky is falling"? No, of course not. They are merely castigating him because he had the temerity to win in 2016 and it's becoming clearer with every passing day that he's going to win again in November. Well, suck it up all you snowflakes, you're in for another four years and your bellyaching hasn't seemed to slow him down yet...

I will not reply due to your caustic nature and self flattery. You don't need to delve into personal insults against posters. Adios

CPT Jack Durish - You jackass!
