Kudlow: Trump may make announcements on next day or two on reopening

[Overnight]

...
Is it good to reduce Coronavirus deaths at all costs but not the common flu?

If we can reduce pneumonia deaths by 50%, with a total lockdown from Dec-April every year would that be worth it?

Please explain why COVID is different than reducing other types of virus deaths with lockdowns.

Tough questions. If we now lock down the entire world for the flu season (virus season) for the 7 months they consider it active, you have now just turned the world economy on it's head. We will then become a part-time earth, where everyone sits at home and rots for the entire season that it is "chilly" outside.

Bad juju for the markets, and your portfolio.

P.S. There's a song for that. (Of course, lol!)

If they do re-open and if Corona flairs again, no make that when it flairs again, I hope Chumpie gets re-elected. He and the ignorant Reps "deserve" it. The rest of us are just along, for the ride to hell.

Declare martial law. Total complete lockdown. No one goes anywhere but the military and those escorted by the military. MAKE the Americans STAY AT HOME. 4 to 6 weeks should do it.

With your own example, should we outlaw all car travel since there are automobile accidents? The answer is that's ridiculous because there is an economic cost to everything, including safety.

Ban sugar, ban tobacco, ban sun exposure, ban alcohol, ban animal fats and on and on and on.....

What we should ban is ignorance. Step right up for the cruise ship to nowhere fast.

Equating an automobile with a virus - something useful with something that has no purpose but to multiply and kill. Truly amazing. Even Chumpie hasn't gone that far .Yet.

Turn your common sense
It won’t be 100k death
I am in great NYC area
Just follow the rules
It is a lot of peoples not educated and not following the rules unfortunately
However numbers going to improve!!!!

Get your 3rd grader to proofread post next time. For grammar as well as umm ... common sense.

It sounds very scary.
America has already broke the record, and has the most number of covid cases & death. Not the good record to break actually.
One US aircraft carrier is down. China aircraft carrier just sailed through Taiwan Strait.
Will they break some other record again?
Wonder how Trump is going to make America Great Again.
He only has few months left to get it done.

SARs crisis affected mainly China and Hongkong.
It hardly affected Europe and US.

during the covid crisis, see how prepared China and Hongkong are
and how badly covid impacted Europe and US.

Look at HK data. They are doing rather well in containing the problem.

So should Kudlow discuss further tighter lockdown or reopening?

Well even though Chumpie acts like King/Generalismo/Judge/Jury/Executioner and Junior High School Girl name caller all rolled into one this is a Republic without King or a Military ruler or J,J,E in one. So only his Bitchness is allowed.

But even if we - to quote from a couple of years back lewzing Missouri Rep Congressman Todd Akin - "....ways to try to shut that whole thing down." talking about umm rape - the virus will still be out there elsewhere in the world. So even if we eliminated it completely from the country it'll be back. Maybe not as intense and with the medical community better prepared and many ways to defend against and/or treat patients with minimal loss of life.

Hopefully Joe Biden will be up to the task of leading things if/when that happens.

Because Chumpie plays a doctor on TV, a malpracticing one.

Wow, are you really that ignorant or are you really an educated and thoughtful troll?

The difference between Biden and Trump will be that Biden will at least have a fully staffed Federal government with people qualified to perform the job they are responsible for doing.

And he won't denigrate them, ignore them, and spend his time telling us all how much better/smarter he is then them....in malformed incomplete sentences.

They will. They just added 3700 extra death to the NY state numbers. Now that is what I call improvement!!!

The 100K by the end of the year can and will be easily done.

Previously, the city had not counted people who died at home without getting tested for the coronavirus, or who died in nursing homes or at hospitals, but did not have a confirmed positive test result.

Is raising the coronavirus death rate like this for people who might have died with it supposed to make Bill de Blasio look even more incompetent?
