Title: What about the County Fairs ?
Post by: dinkadoo on May 01, 2020, 08:13:37 AM
In Ohio, while some things are opening, the stay at home order has been extended...…

While there are thousands of Ohio foals born every year, the vast majority that make it to the races do so via the pretty large fair circuit that is in the state.

Haven't heard much of the county fairs that are up and running or cancelling.

Couldn't agree more - change started around 2016. After 3 1/2 yrs of this stupidity. America   is in the worse position it's been in since the 1930's.

Will be difficult for historians to track who's responsible for the decline  ngc3.

Need a Harry Truman - a guy the buck stops with instead of a clown face that blames every else and constantly dissparages his own staff. A lot of the most  competent people dont want to work for potus. I wonder why?

Ain't that the truth <>  that old school mentallity is really slowing down a return to racing.  Most of the harness racers only know one way to go racing  >  their way, the old time way  ^  no flexibility, and that, right there, is why there's no movement to get back into the paddocks and going round and round.

Dummy's get on here and just insult. My first read every day is the NY Post which is not exactly a bastion of liberal thinking.

If POTUS had reacted timely to this instead of frittering away all of February and half of March saying this was nothing and would magically disappear April 1st the US would have weathered this much better.

And, you may not realize this but an administration is evaluated based on all 4 yrs in office in office not 3. Every administration would look great if you could pick and choose successes and ignore the failures.

The US economy and stock market performed way better under the 8 yrs of the last guy. Under the clown in there now, the world is watching and laughing as he talks about the possibility of using bleach and Lysol to disinfect the ill.

That's not the media making stuff up, just dummies like you refusing to acknowledge what's right in front of your face.

So gsac! ngc3

While I'm far from a Trump supporter. The media is using revisionist history on February and Early March

1st it was stupid to say it would just disappear. (I think he acts like at 14yearold sometimes)

But his heath advisors that everyone says he should be listing to said...… Dr. Anthony Fauci from January 26th.

"The American people should not be worried or frightened by this. It's a very, very low risk to the United States," Dr. Fauci said on The CATS Roundtable. "It isn't something that the American public needs to worry about or be frightened about."

March 8th from Gov. Cuomo......

Cuomo also downplayed the seriousness of the virus itself, noting that it is like “a bad flu,” and not serious unless one is part of these vulnerable populations.
“We’re not dealing with Ebola virus, we’re not dealing with a SARS virus,” he said.
“What we do here is we calibrate to the facts as we know them at the time, so as the facts change you change your strategy,” he said. “But at this time there’s no reason to close down mass transit.”
“Worse then the virus right now… is the fear, pandemic,” Cuomo said. “The fear is more dangerous than the virus.”


Also Nancy Pelosi was in China Town at the end of February, saying there was no problem.

Mayor De Blasio March 11th “If you’re not sick, you should be going about your life,” the mayor said.

These are also right in front of your face. No-one knew it would get this bad.

I wouldn't disagree that the gov of ny and mayor of NYC (neither of whom I support) were late to the dance here but that doesn't forgive the Presidency for failing to grasp the seriousness of this. What's more, Cuomo and de Blasio don't have the resources at their hands that POTUS does and may we'll have been taking their cue from POTUS administration officials were saying. Let's be clear, the safety of the US is POTUS's domain not a numbskull mayor or an arrogant governor's.

So, there is no revisionism involved here.Just a recounting of what actually occurred.

 POTUS has a innate disrespect for science, medicine and intelligence. The disinfecting the body of virus with bleach being just one example of this. Others, such as the magically April 1st disappearing virus or the value of the possible  "game changing" drug (chloroquine) touted by Laura ingraham (but not medical experts)  and embraced by Trump are others.

 Administration officials  (Peter Navarro) were warning as early as January that given the information coming from China the risk of a devastating pandemic was there.

Navarro, a key POTUS  confidant and  trade advisor, stated in memo to the circulated to the president and cabinet members at this time that:

"The lack of immune protection or an existing cure or vaccine would leave Americans defenseless in the face of a full blown coronovirus outbreak on us soil ...This lack of protection elevates the risk of the the coronovirus evolving into a full-blown pandemic, imperiling the lives of millions of Americans."

In addition, there were internal intelligence members circulated in early December warning about a weird "flu" devastating central China.

Let's be honest here. Potus ignored this because all the president cares about is himself and his reelection chances. All issues are framed by POTUS as  what's in his own personal interests and not the country's best benefit. There was a risk to millions of Americans, but it benefitted POTUS's reelection chances to ignore it.

That's not the type of guy I want in the white house.

Pelosi was not asking people to party in Chinatown she was telling people the oriental people are not bad people.

Pelosi was not asking people to party in Chinatown she was telling people the oriental people are not bad people.

Wrong! More revisionist history.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi toured San Francisco's Chinatown Monday to send a message. She said there's no reason tourists or locals should be staying away from the area because of coronavirus concerns.
"That’s what we’re trying to do today is to say everything is fine here," Pelosi said. "Come because precautions have been taken. The city is on top of the situation."
As Pelosi walked from the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory to lunch at a dim sum restaurant, she hugged friends and waved to onlookers. She downplayed the racism issue, saying she understands people are concerned about China – the epicenter of the novel coronavirus.
"But that shouldn’t be carried over to Chinatown in San Francisco," she said. "I hope that it’s not that. But all I can say is, 'I’m here.' We feel safe and sound, so many of us coming here."

January 31st Trump blocked travel from China and was labeled a rascist……. Pelosi days later try to block the travel ban but was unsuccessful..... But why let facts get in the way ?

Wake up dude. It was already here. I liked the China ban. But it was already here and what's more coming from Europe in a more virulent strain. The world is interconnected in ways now economically that make it tough to keep bad things like this out.

China ban wasn't a way to stop the virus. How'd it work out?

You  Trump apologists think bands are the answer to everything. Should have been all hands on deck and a lot of guns readying. Instead Nero was fiddling while Rome was burning and saying this thing was totally under control. At one point in late February he said we got 15 cases and soon will be down to zero. How'd that go? 3 weeks later most of the country is locked down.  ngc3

Why'd the president listen to Fox host ingraham and get doctors on chloroquine when Faucci was saying we're not there with this drug. Lot of time frittered away on that when it could have been better spent on other options.
 
What about ppe? A lot of scientists were saying this stuff is possible it just a matter of time until it hits. Even fucking Hollywood knew that.

I could go on for a couple pages but it's time for you to go back to sleep. Naptime!

Trump is certainly not a genius, wish he would just let his positive accomplishments speak for themselves.
This country is in a far better place now than when he took over from the community planner.
Give me a break, how can anyone with a logical mind think that megalomaniac Hillary would have been a good president?  Joe Biden is more corrupt than some of you are willing to admit, I will lay you 3 to 5
that if Biden got elected his Veep would ascend to the presidency within months due to his inability to hold office.
Is it not telling that the first day of Trumps presidency, Maxine Waters, Pelosi and Schumer were talking about impeachment....in stead of talking about working with him to make the country a better place.
Get your heads out of your arses!

Did you graduate high school?  Anyone with that level of education should know that is far from the truth.  All of the following are far worse under Trump as compared to Obama: education, health care, infrastructure, environment, social security, medicare, income equality, wealth equality, human rights, civil rights, state department, intelligence community, I could go on and on. 

You might say what about the economy, job and stock markets?  All performed better under Obama even though Obama inherited the worse economy since the great depression.  This is all true just do a little research (ex. Obama created more jobs, better stock market performance, etc.).  Last but not least, the USA does not live in a vacuum.  Other countries matter too and our standing in the world is tanking fast.  To get another perspective, please read this editorial from the Irish Times:

Got a buddy I've owned some with before out in Ohio. He just text me saying fair cancelled yesterday. Think it's only the start of a trend unfortunately.

Gonna put a ton of strain on the small farms that run at these fairs year after year. Travesty.
