    Hillary wouldn't have to do anything because no one would be blaming her. I don't even remember this alleged botching of the swine flu in 09. That's how memorable it was

    Would Hillary have cut off travel in January? Or given in to her Chi Com bankers?

    LIPO. We'll know in a few months time whether the panic was merited or not.

    Like the IMPEACHMENT!!!!! ???

    Not a good analogy.
    Actually perfect.
    Disagree. Anyone with a brain new how impeachment was gonna play out. The markets barely noticed. Not the case here.
    This is gonna play out like New Coke.

    Thud. Go back to the old flu prevention protocol. Wash hands. Drink fluids. Take your vitamins. Beat off furiously when necessary.
    My gut tells me this is the case, but I'm not in the prediction bidness anymore.

    I'm in the bulls eye of CV hell right now with work, kid's schools closed for weeks at a minimum, pre-schedule out patient surgery for the wife being cancelled, etc, etc. I can't recall anything like this in my lifetime as it relates to a germ hysteria. Something has the worldwide medical community spooked and it's not just some Donkey conspiracy to take down Trump.
    Is it really the medical community that is spooked? I just pasted a note from WHO which is part of the UN world wide communist conspiracy and he said 80% will have mild symptoms. The usual people who die off every year from the flu will continue to do so

    Right now it is a media and internet panic attack creation until it isn't

    And it is clearly being used as a hail mary against Trump. That isn't even a question.
    So if Cankles was POTUS and all other things being eqaul my kids wouldn't be out of school for 2 weeks now and NBA would still be on?

    Good to know that my life is being fucked with in so many ways because of a conspiracy to get Trump.
    Well has the flu caused this type of reaction before? Nope. The last thing to cause this reaction was AIDS and we would be homophobic bigots if we reacted like this. Do the math

    Did the democrats blame your boy for a hurricane? Why yes they did. The playbook never changes.

    You can call it a conspiracy if you want but it is what it is. Its the democrats and their media and social media looking to not let an alleged crisis go to waste

    How may sick people do you know?
    My 2 yr old. 12 days in the hospital so far in the past year and a half.
    From corona?

    How are those test kits coming along?

    NOC
    But test kits!!

    If we could just test more people we could stop this thing.
    It's almost if there's a correlation with aggressive testing (China and South Korea) to the slowdown of the spread of the virus
    Yes. Let's praise the Country that developed the virus, unleashed it onto it's people, hid it's existence, then lied about it's existence as the standard bearer of outbreak prevention.

    Just when I thought TDS couldnt seep into a cortex any deeper, you totally redeem yourself.

    And everyone feels for you. By all means, continue believing the RATs care about you and just more government will solve all your problems. Just be prepared to spend less time with the professionals your child needs.

    The thing is that this virus is harder to spread than the run of the mill flu. It's more dangerous than the run of the mill flu, but is easier contained. The travel bans will help as long as people do what they are supposed to do here. The biggest mistake was allowing any trading on the NYSE.

    Serious discussion, I've only seen the opposite. Where did you hear that?

    Cramer had some good ideas this morning. Pretty sure he was on the phone directly with Kudlow during the show pre-market open.

    I’ve never seen any anchor take a call live on the air. Cramer excused himself and started talking on his cell.

    Since most of the trading is done by program I thought there were triggers to shut it down to avoid 08. Or 89.

    Yeah, I have to say, I'm not sure what more people expect of their government. At some point, if you need Jay Inslee to tell you to WASH YOUR FUCKING HANDS before picking your nose then you probably should get corona virus.

    I honestly have no criticism of anyone in terms of how this has been handled. I was thinking the other day, besides FDRs great speach following Pearl Harbor, and maybe W's response to 9-11, which was far and away his shining moment, has any President ever been great in a crisis? Don't they all get criticized? We're Americans. We like to bitch. It's who we are.

    JFK got blowies from Marilyn Monroe AND saved the world from the Missles of October.

    #courage

    You're right. That was a big miss on my part.
