Wow - Trump Makes Corona virus Racist
Please post any questions, comments below. - some of the comments received as of Thursday 7:30 am.
1) Please don’t assign too much work I be tired Brot 😂
2) People are overreacting to much. The corona is a virus and has killed many people. But overreacting over the slightest symptoms doesn't help anyone nor does it have any positive impact. Make sure to wash your hands and stay positive. Being dreary isn't good on your state of mind, or others.
3) How long is this gonna take for it to go away ? Did they find a cure or is the process still under processing?
4) Some hospitals have been rescheduling and cancelling physical exams and regularly scheduled check-ups to slow the spread of COVID-19

In new ads, Sanders takes shots at Biden, highlights
praise from Obama
After a banner night for Biden, Sanders released two new
TV ads in upcoming states signaling fresh worries about the former vice
president.
One is a commercial that hits Biden over Social Security,
a notable move into a more negative posture on the airwaves. The other features
past commentary from former president Barack Obama praising Sanders.
Biden has been doing better than Sanders among older
voters. And the former vice president has been reminding voters about his ties
to Obama, who remains very popular among Democrats.
A third commercial
takes a more oblique shot at Biden, declaring: “Only one candidate for
president has consistently opposed every disastrous trade deal. And that
candidate is Bernie Sanders.”
