    Coronavirus is LESS Deadly than the average Flu.You probably
    didn't know that.But Trump explained it Wednesday night.
    Coronavirus is far less deadly than SARS.Whiich had a mortality rate
    of 9.5% in 2002 and 34.4% in 2012.But then these drat democrats aren't
    gonna explain that to you.They want you to panic.Like most everything
    else Dems plead.
    The Coronavirus,thus far has a mortality rate ranging from 0.5% - 2%.
    So Rush Limbaugh was spot-on.You have probably seen on TV a few people
    who had the Virus and were mandated to be quarantined.
    They did not appear to be suffering even as much as someone with
    a bad cold.I think the Coronavirus is probably much more contagious
    than all other Virus.That seems to be it's biggest scare.

    Anything is possible.

    For example, many predicted a "Friday Bounceback" to calm things down.

    However they are down over 800, with only a little over 2 hours left.

    Do you anticipate a late rally to avoid another -1000 day?

    Anything is possible.

    These people are actually saying it's a conspiracy theory to say the virus isn't as serious as democrats are making it out to be. Look at this, according to the CDC... The downright ignorance of some people simply amazes me.

    Like what? I see Conservatives complain about his tweets all the time. Right before the Louisiana primaries in 2016, Trump said Bush started a war in the middle least to benefit himself and it caused a lot of people, including my mom, to vote for Ted Cruz.

    Your problem is that you project the way you feel onto everyone else. Just because you would excuse the guy you support, for any wrongdoing he did, doesn't mean everyone else will. Y'all hold him responsible for the dumbest reasons I've ever seen.

    This is what to expect when you have a verifiable Corrupt MSM,Free
    Press and Democrat Party.Just lie after lies and lies.
    I mean,what else have the Democrats got.They Are " Incompetent ".
    Can't even tabulate their own Primary results.And when they do as in 2016
    they Rigged electors in favor of Hillary over Sanders.
    Nancy Pelosi is also going straight To Hell.
    For being a major Legislator and supporter of Abortion on Demand.
    The Confessional cannot save her anymore.It's a grave mortal sin for
    people who Legislate and make Abortion a thng of casual ease.
    When Passed Roe Vs. Wae was to be used very sparingly.
    In terms of the life of the mother or Rape etc.It had become under Obama
    a thing of such casual ease as to make the life of an Unborn a thing of
    no consequence.Mother Teresa { should be declared a Saint } in the coming
    years,never Proselytized { tried to convert to the Catholic faith }.She did however
    lecture as to the inherent evils of Abortion.I think if Mother Teresa ever had a
    chance to Confront this Pelosi shrew she might have spit in her face and kick
    her but good in the shins.

    Do you understand why the market hit record highs? Because of Trump's trade deals with China. That has directly impacted the rise of the stock market.

    Do you understand why the market is cratering? Because of a virus we know little about, that's coming out of China. That has directly impacted the fall of the stock market.

    Anyone who has been following the stock market knows this, and could foresee the market falling as a result of China's virus, and will watch the market break 30,000 once the CV is contained.

    Great.

    So?

    China deserves all of the credit and the blame?

    Then, why was/is Trump taking credit for China's Mastery of the U.S. Economy?

    I don't know if you're being sarcastic or serious, but you're not going to see a bounce back until China gets their virus contained because so many of our products come from there and we're not going to risk trading on such a large scale as long as that virus isn't contained. The best you'll see is the market stabilize until then. That's why Trump working out a deal for them to lower their tariffs caused the market to grow and break its own record hundreds of times.

    Hey, I do agree that anything is possible.

    How soon are you predicting the Dow to bounce back over 30,000?

    By Election Day?

    Uh, yes? That's where the virus came from.

    China doesn't control our market, Trump's trade deals with China does because lower tariffs meant spending less on Chinese trade.

    Come on, Andrew, work with me here.

    Do you mean, while Trump was rationally handling COVID-19 but the leftwing and their media were trying to make everyone hysterical that we were all doing to die, and lying about Trump gutting the CDC (to the point even the Associated Press had to call you guys out?)


    The market was booming thanks in large part to Trump's strong economy and the accompanying optimism. It tanked because of China's COVID-19 and problems in China's supply chains. Anyone should be able to see Trump's role in the market's rise; likewise anyone would be foolish to try to blame the drop in the market on Trump. Trump is not the President of China.

    And lest you forget, while Trump was trying to calm everyone's fears, the Democrats and their media were running around throwing fuel on the fire, stoking hysteria that we all were going to die, and lying (to the point even the Associated Press had to call you guys out) about Trump gutting the CDC, etc.


    Hey, that's the argument you folks use ---- the financial markets don't matter because they are only for the rich ---- it's not my argument. But it's good to see you guys developing an interest in the market now!

    Perhaps Trump should have done a better job on executing on his strategy if you think that strategy would have mitigated the current financial market meltdown.

    Solano County woman with unknown origin of coronavirus is in serious condition. The stricken woman did not travel to China, or know any of the other infected persons. She however lives only 10 miles from the Travis military airport base the infected patients from Japan that Trump had flown in ignoring the advice of the CDC.

    Unprotected social workers were sent to greet the 320 passengers. The CDC told the Trump admin. that the 14 people tested positive for the coronia virus should be flown back to the US in a separate airplane to not infect the other 320 persons. The Trump admin overruled the CDC and flew both the infected persons and well persons on the same airplane into the California Travis airbase.

    The social workers are now circulating throughout California not in quarantine. And the 320 passengers? They took
    commercial airlines back home.

    Once the virus is contained, the market will begin its rapid climb. That virus is the only factor in this right now. I wouldn't be surprised to see it rise as fast as it fell.

    The State Department is just a giant nest of liberals. It’s infested with leftists, just like a NASCAR race is filled with conservatives.

    No, his plan clearly worked because he and his friends sold all of their stock and then shorted the market before allowing the virus to spread.

    The libs still complain that Trump is riding the coattails of Obama’s economy. So this would be Obama’s fault correct?
