I gotta say this! The ONLY way i can see this (opening of the states) is

[bluestarone]

They ALL want the WORST case scenario by Nov. (2 to 300,000 deaths) to POSTPONE the election! THIS has everything to do with the election. Don't know how but it will.

1. The election can't be postponed except by an act of Congress.

And I don't see that happening.

2. I'm sure you're right

Still makes me think tho!

3. One puzzling aspect of this

Even if the election could be postponed (I don't think it can, but Trump has gotten away with many impossible things), if they are betting that hundreds of thousands of dead Americans will somehow help Trump in November, I can't figure out how this is more likely than the alternate scenario: that it kills more Red staters and Fox Newsers who don't believe the virus poses a threat, and enrages everybody else, increasing the likelihood of a Blue typhoon in November. I don't want anyone to die, but I'm just looking at who is more likely to defy common sense, and also looking at the states where the governors are pushing hardest to open things up and/or ignoring hot spots and dangerous outbreaks.

But maybe I'm missing something obvious. That's happened before.

5. You know i was thinking the same thing

This virus will attack HIS BASE! So like you i'm confused!

4. Then Trump has to step down for that decision to go along with what certain states wanted

And the governors, as well.

6. My theory

is they know they are going to lose. So either they create such a dust-up to allow the Russians and their insiders the ability to change results, or they are using the money injections to steal as much as they can prior to the new administration taking over.

7. I say

Be ready for ANYTHING!! We ALL know they have some kind of plan!
