CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY APRIL 20, 2020
WHEN IT COMES TO RE-OPENING THE ECONOMY AND THE COUNTRY AFTER THE UNPRECEDENTED SHUTDOWN, ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL. PRESIDENT TRUMP IS RIGHTLY LEAVING IT UP TO INDIVIDUAL GOVERNORS TO MAKE THE DECISIONS FOR THEIR STATES AND LOCALITIES.
DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS, LEAD BY SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI, SAY IT’S TOO DANGEROUS TO START RE-OPENING NOW. ONE HAS TO LOOK AT HER MOTIVES AND NOT HER PRONOUNCEMENTS. HER MOTIVES AND THOSE OF VIRTUALLY EVERY OTHER DEMOCRAT IS TO DEFEAT DONALD TRUMP IN THE NOVEMBER ELECTION. NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES, INCLUDING MASSIVE JOB LOSSES AND INCREASING DEBT, IT DOESN’T MATTER TO THEM IN THE PURSUIT OF THIS SINGULAR GOAL.
EVERYTHING ELSE THEY HAVE TRIED TO RUIN THE PRESIDENT HAS FAILED. NOW THEY’RE TRYING TO RUIN THE COUNTRY. IT’S UNPATRIOTIC, AS WELL AS PATHETIC.
WE CAN AND SHOULD START WITH THOSE STATES THAT HAVE HAD LITTLE OR NO EXPOSURE TO THE VIUS WHILE CONTINUING TO PRACTICE HEALTHY BEHAVIOR FOR NOW. ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND, THOUGH, THAT THE DEMOCRATS WITH HELP FROM THEIR FELLOW LIBERALS IN THE MEDIA WILL DO ANYTHING – ANYTHING – TO KEEP THE PRESIDENT FROM GETTING RE-ELECTED. I’M CAL THOMAS.
