Republicans demand Trump set end date date for fighting virus as people keep dying

By Josh Israel -March 23, 2020 1:24 PM

After days of conservative calls for a quick end to social distancing, Donald Trump joined in on Sunday.

Conservatives are fed up with social distancing to slow the coronavirus. After days of them demanding a fixed date for the end of the COVID-19 crisis, Donald Trump basically endorsed their demands on Sunday night.

On Friday, Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) penned a National Review piece called "America Needs a Date Certain." In it, he wrote that "our government’s response has put thousands of American businesses on the brink of insolvency, and millions are now jobless" and predicts that this will "only continue unless the government provides certainty of action."

"The most important thing we need to do — right now — is to announce a date to signal our economic restart, get folks back to work, and build the confidence we need to get capital flowing," Roy demanded. "Perhaps that date should be around April 1. Perhaps it should be April 15. In consultation with our nation’s health experts, the federal government must announce a date within the coming weeks, no later."

His fellow Texas Republican, Rep. Dan Crenshaw, endorsed the call, tweeting Friday, "We MUST do everything in our power to provide a reasonable, health-informed, date for when Americans can safely return to regular economic activity in their communities."

Looks like that Chip fella, why he was holdin off and holdin off, but he finally had to just let go and explode. He’s had the Fascist just boiling away inside just buildin’ up and he just couldn’t hold it back any longer, so he up and said, yup, we can intermingle, bump and breath on one another, and get those corporate profits up and running and throw in the funeral industry to boot. There will be lots of caskets and urns and that’s where the hot market is, but don’t tell anybody. People dying? Well that’s just part of the free market.

Yeah, that Chip fella... you don’t want to be his disabled nephew. You’d have to listen to him tell the world that you’re expendable. Yeah, my uncle Chip, he never says hi to me at the family Christmas gatherings. I wonder why.

the one giving the RepubliCons "the stupids!"

But, there's an easy, inexpensive test: Just read their daily quotes.

There salaries will not change. They will not lose their jobs. They just will not get bonuses. The market has spoken. Ignore the plague.
