The gathering at Sturgis is a good example of the total lack of leadership from the president

[Kyblue1]

Instead of taking charge in a national crisis Trump heads to the golf course and tells the governors to take care of it. Even worse when he takes a few minutes to talk about the COVID crisis, he gives false information with the result that many of his faithful followers endanger the rest of us by ignoring sound medical advice.
Where is a true leader like FDR when we need him or her?

4. Yes there will. And a bunch of rides and poker runs

to celebrate their life. Which of course will spread it further leading to more Harley’s for sale. Personally, I like my Honda 750 better.

8. Exactly.

3. The true leader Joe Biden will be sworn in January 20th 2021. He will be our

Roosevelt and save this country...so get out there and work to get him elected to take the senate.

5. The ride home through Colorado on I-25 is always massive. I will be buying my gas far

from the interstate exits and hope those poor workers can stay masked and safe as well.

6. I dare say, expecting to trump to lead is the first mistake unless he can profit from it

7. Harley-Davidson won't be there this year.

10. That's amazing

No official Harley representation at all.

9. Why doesnt Trump fly to Sturgis for a rally?

Or maybe he should ride his Harley there.

11. well one group of Americans

the First-Americans, Cheyenne River Sioux, are showing leadership and common sense. Any disruption to these narcissistic clowns going to Sturgis is good. Won't stop them but will show them some people are thinking critically about the danger(s) of COVID-19.

12. I have hope

that our beautiful thinking, aware and awake younger generation just coming into voting age will turn back this fascist tide along with us older Americans in November. It's all about money here and a republican govenor that allows this to happen.
