Republicans couldn't last one damned day without their money before they cracked and came up out of their bunkers to roam the countryside searching for profit.
@Stonekettle I tend to think that the Democrats are taking the whole concept of social distancing more seriously than Republicans.
All of the adolescents saying "YOU CAN'T MAKE ME" are the pseudo-libertarians that think that being American = Unlimited Personal Freedom.

@Stonekettle let them die
