    No executive members of Government have tested positive, but I wonder how their opinions will change as their peons start racking up positive cases of COVID-19. Im still waiting for someone in Congress, the executive, or judicial to actually contract the virus. The incidents are proving its spreading in the area and close to senior members of our Government.

    Right as the White House begins to zero in on re-open efforts they face an mini-outbreak in their ranks. Of course they'll insulate and it probably wont grow too far but that's because they're provided with the best protective gear, the fastest most accessible testing methods and round-the-clock medical staff to oversee it all - things the rest of us just don't have. There's a lesson here to be learned.

    It must be horrible being a conservative. Pretending y'all are better but suffering from debilitating jealousies.

    Leadership is important during any crisis. A leadership vacuum is bad during a crisis. That is not a conservative statement, it is a historical statement.

    You want him to wave a magic wand and make the USA the only nation with no virus?

    The Detritus of Columbia is a hot bed of coronavirus. Rand Paul is the first politician that I can remember who came down with the corona, some considerable time ago. Why would anyone be surprised that the lurking corona has made its way into the WH!!!!!

    The question is what took it so long.

    Where will I go from the coronavirus? or where will I flee from the corona's presence? If I ascend upon the wind in a pressurized aircraft, the corona is there: if I descend deep into the mines, behold, the corona is there.

    There's nobody who isn't walking point. The corona is trying to snipe them, trip them, rip their body parts off them, choke off their breathing, kill them.

    There's no such thing as safety.

    That's cute.

    Your population is barely bigger than just the state I live in.

    But go ahead comparing apples and pomegranate seeds.

    Libby, you have made no statistical correlation of factors between Australia and the US to support your conclusion.

    Try again.

    You're cute too, if you think the situations between the vast and diverse US and tiny Australia are similar enough to merit comparison in this manner.

    But hey, there is no coronavirus at all in my house, so I'm even better at handling coronavirus than the US or Australia!! My house should be held up as a model!

    I mean, after all, if you're okay with comparing apples and grains of sand......

    The magic wand is the army. New Zealand used their army to enforce restrictions, but still they are getting new cases.

    I imagine there would be a blood bath if Trump were to call in the US Army to enforce restrictions, which he would not do.

    Australia had 15 new cases yesterday. You can beat corona down, but never eliminate it.

    Thank you for being a good sport in showing us why to not take your argument seriously.

    If you had a case to be made, you'd have done it by now.

    Take your childish I-know-you-are-but-what-am-I crap somewhere else.

    Homey don't play that. I don't waste my time comparing apples to tacos either.

    They just told everyone that Covid came from sheep :p
