    But if he’s promoting the opening and some of his red states follow suit...

    He'll order states to reopen then criminalize/suppress data on infections and deaths. People will start disappearing by the thousands and there will be no verifiable information where they went.
    Old Mr. Jones down the street got taken off in an ambulance; nobody ever saw him again.

    Another 5.245 million initial unemployment claims for the week. Continuing claims up to 11.986 million.

    I could absolutely be looking at things with a biased eye because I think he's done an awful job, but shouldn't the results in Wisconsin scare the Republicans shitless? Trump won the state in 2016 by 23,000 voters (0.77 percent). In 2019, Dems attempted to flip a court seat there and narrowly lost. In 2020, they tried again and won by 120,000 votes. It's not like Trump racked up a Reagan-like victory in 2016, and its hard for me to imagine that he's going to maintain his vote count in the swing states.

    Oh, they're scared all right. Look at Trump's performance in these press conferences. Does he radiate serene confidence? Or is he clearly unraveling?

    It would scare them more if he couldn't afford to lose any. But he could lose Wisconsin/Michigan, or Wisconsin/Pennsylvania, or Wisconsin/Ohio and still eke out a victory. You make Whitmer your nominee for VP, and Michigan GOP voters have their "Hillary" to rally against.

    And four of the eight closest margins in 2016 went to Clinton.
