Coronavirus News Conference

This is the problem of the left.   Midnight will never debate the issues, he just wants to stand in the middle of the room and scream.

You remember the bratty little kid that would cry on his siblings birthdays because it was not fair they got presents and they did not?    They grew up and became a progressive liberal.

Lol.. so, True ! 

Just in case someone has  not had time. President Trump news conference at 2 pm central. 

Rush...I have listed Democrats that need to go in this forum in the past. I have disagreed with the Dems handling/questioning of witnesses during their committee hearings. So the answer to your question is, I call a spade a spade.

As for you, this is the first time I can recall you disagreeing with your boy. His immigration policies, his attack on healthcare, his tax cuts, his ridiculous wall, his relationships with our allies, his tariffs disasters, his personnel selections, his misogyny, his race baiting, our country's global image and leadership role destroyed, family separations, his broken promises to eliminate the debt are all issues you could have spoken out against but only when it's affected your wallet have you criticized your boy. 

It speaks volumes of who you are.

Have you learned to wash your hands properly? We wouldn't want you to get anyone sick now with that hoax of a flu, right?

I'm not going anywhere for now. I'll debate you on any subject. Have at it... 

BTW guy...open your own thread if you dare so we don't further muck up sundance's thread.

My apologies sundance. 

BTW..got some ponies @ GP I like tomorrow if you get the itch.

Some of our soldiers on the battle front are sick and it's been shown that it's not the flu.

But they don't don't have test kits to rule out the coronavirus.

WTF!!!!

There's no viable excuse for the failure to take care of our soldiers.  

That is ok Midnight1. I will check your horses out tomorrow. All I have now is Twin Spires and books that I have not read.

Great press conference by President Trump! I love the fact that Trump has incorporated the private sector to help eliminate the coronavirus. We are in good hands with President Trump and Vice President Pence. We should have sports back by the middle of May. Play ball!

Trump is the worst leader...what a f’n tool...he shouldn’t be allowed to speak

That's funny sundance. I've got 5 books waiting for me, two of which are historical written by Dan Abrams.

I play on TwinSpires as well and watch the races on TVG with the sound turned off. The constant chattering among the hosts is non-stop. I turn the sound back on when they are interviewing a jockey, trainer or owner. 

Finished capping 4 cards before dinner and will now go back to see what singles I can find for double/exacta wheels. I'll share a long shot @ Oaklawn's last race.

#1 Classy Beast hasn't raced since October @GP West (formerly Calder). He's working great @ Oaklawn, picks up Joe Talamo and David Fawkes is the trainer. He's moved many in his stable from Gulfstream to Oaklawn. Fawkes is only winning @15% but his horses are 48% ITM (In the Money). The ML is 20-1. 

He may be worth a WPS wager.

Classy Beast it is!  Abrams new book on John Adams defending 5 British soldiers looks good. Abrams was on Fox News Channel promoting the book.

Earlier in this thread, I mentioned that Italy had suspended their citizens mortgage payments due to the virus & thought why couldn't the US do the same. Not knowing the answer, I did some searching for an answer. First thing I learned is we have $11 trillion in mortgages which is much larger than Italy's. Bank's biggest concern is that someone holds those bonds and asks "who will pay the interest?" So the short answer is probably not. HOWEVER, I found the info below and realized lenders have always looked at these issues on a case to case basis. Nothing has changed in that matter & l wanted to share this POSITIVE information about this government agency and yes, Trump. For those who may be furloughed or laid off from their jobs, you may want to check this out ASAP. We are not going to get through this crisis as a divided country, so help fellow Americans when you can. 

The Federal Housing Finance Agency, which oversees those government-controlled mortgage securitizers, issued a directive last week urging servicers to offer help to people who fall behind on mortgage payments because of the coronavirus pandemic.

“To meet the needs of borrowers who may be impacted by the coronavirus, last week Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac reminded mortgage servicers that hardship forbearance is an option for borrowers who are unable to make their monthly mortgage payment,” said FHFA Director Mark Calabria. “For borrowers that may be experiencing a hardship, I encourage you to reach out to your servicer.”

In addition, regulators such as the Federal Reserve on Tuesday urged U.S. banks such as Wells Fargo and JPMorgan Chase to work “constructively” with  borrowers affected by the coronavirus outbreak, promising they won’t get dinged by examiners as long as the measures show good judgment.

Great info Midnight1. I am going to forward this to my son in law and daughter. You never know.

My ex wife works in a local, Illinois public school district. Illinois is closing schools beginning on Tuesday for 2 weeks. My ex will be asking me for help with rent. Yikes!

The Spanish government has locked down the entire country!

Interesting that a Chinese virus with a Mexican name is further exposing Trump's lack of leadership.

Comcast will be giving South Florida students free WiFi for the next 60 days. We need more corporations to step up.

Miami Dade schools will remain open so kids can get free lunch. They come, pick it up & leave the school. 

This is the type of leadership we need in communities across the country & not depend on the farking federal government.

Classy Beast is 13-1 with 9 minutes to post.

Great call on Classy Beast Midnight1!

Congratulations Midnight, nice call 

Thanks ya'll

Paid $46.80/$18.40/$10.20

Loved the $512 exacta & no IRS ticket!!!!

South Florida Beaches are officially closed.

This really really hurts the South Florida economy especially our small businesses.

This virus has become REAL in a hurry for many.

I'm sure other communities are experiencing similar situations.

Time to band together again!

The 'Man of the Year' should/will be Dr Anthony Fauci. Quintuple his salary if he threatens to retire!

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) asserted on Sunday that the coronavirus pandemic is a perfect time to frequent gathering places like restaurants and pubs. Nunes made the remarks during an appearance on the Fox News program Sunday Morning Futures with host Maria Bartiromo. Nunes observed that patrons could likely “get in easily” at their favorite restaurant. Hmmm, I wonder why patrons can "get in easily?" Because no one is going there! What a dumb farker!

DR, Fauci "Right now, personally I wouldn't be going to a restaurant."

Evangelist Alveda King told Fox News viewers on Sunday that the novel coronavirus is part of a “plot” to unleash “biological warfare” on the planet.

FOX should be held responsible for having people like King & Falwell spreading their evangelical bullshit. People believe this stuff and end up endangering others because they still think this virus is a hoax. In this instance, the FOX anchor to his credit corrected her.
