Come to Canada and make some money - No previous acting experience is requiredShow attachment 169116

Good luck with that, borders are closed to all non-essential travel. Besides, in Montreal speaking French an asset

At this time, only Canadian citizens, permanent residents, select foreign nationals traveling for essential reasons and immediate family members of Canadian citizens or residents are allowed to enter Canada and MUST quarantine. Consequences for violating the quarantine period can be severe, with penalties including a fine of up to $750,000, six months of imprisonment and being removed from Canada and refused entry for a year. At least one U.S. visitor is already facing such penalties.

No previous acting experience is required

That line really stands out, doesn't it?

 

[Cannuck]

Just a Covid experience - and the knowledge that masks, while they don't prevent the virus, they do help.

I imagine more people will be following the guidelines - except the radical right perhaps.

Oh boy, "there has never been a leader that has done that"

Feb: "This is like the flu"
Mar: "I'm not concerned at all"
Apr: "light at the end of the tunnel"
May: "we have prevailed"
Jun: "It's going away"
Jul: "we are in a good place"
Aug: "it is what it is"
Sep: "we have rounded the final turn"
Oct: OMG IT'S THE PLAGUE!

Surviving the "plague" sounds more tough then surviving some "flu like symptoms"

Former NJ governor Chris Christie checks into a hospital after positive COVID-19 diagnosis
Chris Christie checked into a hospital on Saturday afternoon as a precautionary measure. Christie who suffers from asthma, has a slight fever and is achey, according to CNN.

The October of doom for Republicans
President Trump’s coronavirus diagnosis puts a depressing capstone on a hellacious week for the party in power.

"In a way, the immediate political implications will be inconsequential. Already trailing Joe Biden badly in the polls, it’s downright implausible that Trump will win any persuadable voters after this week of recklessness. Remember: The week began with news of Trump’s tax avoidance, and nearly ended with controversy over his unwillingness to forthrightly condemn white supremacism. Sandwiched in between was an embarrassing, self-destructive debate performance. Then coronavirus came to the White House."

Interesting how the media use the same story to spin, just change a few lines and add some quotes.

Trump said, "We have things happening that look like they're miracles, coming down from God."

Wonder what miracles he's referring to? That he's feeling better one day after being diagnosed?

How come it took him so long to See the Light?

@mr-x you told be Chris Christie was wearing a mask. Chris Christie says that is a lie.

Chris Christie wears a mask.

'No one was wearing masks' during debate prep, Chris Christie says after president contracts coronavirus

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Friday that during debate preparation for President Donald Trump, who has since tested positive for the coronavirus, none of the people present wore masks.

"No one was wearing masks in the room when we were prepping the president during that period of time," Christie said. "And the group was about five or six people, in total."

Milking it for votes. I'll say some stuff about God, check the Christian vote box off.

Worst Rasmussen in over a month. I wonder how his voters are taking this. Will some be mad after he said this wasn't a big deal, then taking a helicopter to the hospital. Not sure if that's the reason for the drop.

I see reality. You can't point to anything showing a Red Wave. Nothing.

Hold up, the House? The House is perfectly safe. Even the Senate is up for play, that will be close, could go either way.

214 - 190 Dems for the House

The Senate 46 - 46, 8 toss ups, but toss ups are leaning Democrat
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2020/senate/2020_elections_senate_map.html

Dems might get it all.

Thanks, showing Fauci was right. Do you know why he said that?..............

"Dr. Fauci did not literally warn in January 2017 that the Trump administration would certainly face a deadly pandemic affecting the U.S., but he said more generally (while speaking on the subject of pandemic preparedness) there was “no question” that a “surprise outbreak” of infectious disease would occur. The outgoing (Obama) administration had already faced multiple such events, including the 2009 swine flu (H1N1) pandemic, the 2015–2016 Zika virus epidemic, and the 2014-16 Ebola outbreak in West Africa:"

Because there were 3 events under Obama, so it was very likely there would be one under Trump.

[Cannuck]

How does that play out regarding the current administration handling of the virus? It's history now right? Are people's memories so short that they need a reminder?

 

[JB Lions]

If Trump truly is a germaphobe, the White House will be dripping in disinfectant. I'm not sure he's a germaphone with his history of not using a condom with Playboy bunnies and porn stars.

Looks like a whole bunch of infections all over that WH. Of course the wise Trump discouraged mask use, didn't look cool. You gotta look cool.

The flood of intel
@ProjectLincoln
has received today is both remarkable and terrifying. At the WH, the number of the infections and potential infections constitutes a national security crisis of the first order. DM for signal.

Sources: Trump had heart palpitations on Friday, a possible negative side effect of Regeneron antibody treatment. His fever reached 103. And a G7 ally wonders if he’ll appoint Ivanka president instead of Pence.
