what we are seeing right now is what happens when you DON'T "reopen the economy" as we could have. Whether we "should" have will be debated for years I'm sure - especially so long as too many on the left want to blame Covid on Trump.

We are turning the corner because, at the very beginning, Trump contracted for enough to vaccinate every American with millions of doses to spare.

The radical democrats and the biased media used COVID-19 as a weapon against Trump. They did not do what was best for the people.

So there is a shortage of people wanting to enroll in classes to learn trade skills?

But andywire, you got the story all WRONG! Most conservatives think communism was already implemented in the USA during the Obama/Biden years. Trump tried to overthrow communism but failed to do it and got driven from office.

Yup, paid apprenticeships disappeared, and now most employers require trade school which is just as expensive as a university degree.
