That idiot Rachel Maddow was practically in tears about how Georgia was going to be ovedrrun. It did not happen.
This is your first foolish mistake - watching supermarket tabloid trash and expecting to get real news.

You are bizarrely ignoring that those concerned about the virus resurging are concerned about unsafe crowds.
So, I could not help but notice your use of the phrase, "Unsafe" crowds. Does this open the door for the opposite?..as in "Safe crowds"? Are "safe crowds" only to be found in protests?..How about at outdoor concerts?..Is it even remotely possible that crowds numbering in the thousands might be able to practice the same safety measures that you have stated are being observed in the protest crowds?
Or is that "Just semantics"?....lol
Sorry, but “you libs”???
Yes, most definitely. Which "side" do you feel uses the term "racism" in an accusatory manner more often?

Many of these states that have experienced an increase in cases have also had an increase in hospitalizations, with a handful of states also nearing bed capacity. Hospitalizations nationwide are difficult to track, with states reporting hospitalization numbers in varying ways, or not at all. Even states that do report hospitalization numbers may not have always received complete data from every hospital in the state at the time of their reports.
Texas has reported 75,616 cases since the pandemic began, and in 10 of the past 15 days, the state’s seven-day average of new cases has increased.
As of Tuesday, it has reported two consecutive days of record-breaking coronavirus hospitalizations. The state has seen a 36 percent increase in new cases since Memorial Day, with a record 2,056 current hospitalizations as of early Tuesday afternoon. It was up from a high of 1,935 hospitalizations on Monday.Edit to add
The question was asked where are the hosptial over-runs.

19 states see rising coronavirus cases and Arizona is asking its hospitals to activate emergency plans
Before my son deployed to NYC last month, his company told everyone to expect to deploy to the South and Midwest this Summer.
They knew those states would see increases the way they opened things up way too early.
Looking forward to lots of trumpsters with no masks, in Jacksonville, for their maga party this Summer.
Wott could go wrong?
I think I just figured out who you are. Man, you are one sly operator!
Care to share? A banned poster who's returned? A troll just baiting & baiting & baiting? This cloak & dagger stuff is creepy.
Creepy indeed. It is definitely an old hand here. I can't say any more, but we are on it. First step was locating where and how they managed to access the internet.
Accessed the internet? Are they in prison? Never mind.
Please finish your detective work before you post again in other threads; you're really off your game & not making friends. I say this as someone who generally agrees w/you & laughs at your silly attempts to lighten things when they get too dark.

Third time you have posted that. I think before though you just said Midwest though.
I predict the media will falsely position red states as having growing cases compared to blue states, in a desperate smear attempt. Watch for it. But nothing will work. Trump will win again, especially with Biden’s ridiculously weak campaign thus far.
VP update, AP is saying Kamala Harris, Susan Rice and Elizabeth Warren are finalists
Yep you guys were right, Hillary didn’t make the cut 😮 - glad I didn’t take the wager that was offered 😉

No, they mentioned both areas.
Looks like the Midwest is doing much better than the South.
Things are looking grim in Floriduh and Texas.

Yeah, no way he would bring Hillary and her baggage back on. No way she would take a back seat. I think Harris or Rice are great choices. I like Warren, but she doesn't have the broad appeal that Biden really needs.

Of those listed, my choices in order would be Rice, Harris, and not Warren. I think Val Demings of Florida would also be a good choice (HOR member & former police chief for Orlando). There are others, but Joe will pick along with advisors.
HC was a nonstarter. Why anyone would have thought she would have either been a prez or vp nominee baffles me. She's done.

If Hillary could not beat Trump, how is creepy Joe gonna pull it off?

Because people have experienced the Trump nightmare long enough. It is obvious McConnell thinks Trump is going to lose, as he is making a last ditch effort to pack the courts while he can. I know you are going to reject the polls, but at this point it is looking like a Biden landslide. The senate is also looking to be in play, which nobody believed would be possible last year. McConnell might even lose his seat. Everyday Trump opens his mouth he falls a little more in the polls and he may take the senate with him.

Well, as always, I have never placed any faith in Polls and I believe the same scenario that played out in '16 is going to repeat itself here in 2020. You democrats have learned nothing in 4 years, take a look at this board and the response anyone here receives at the slightest hint of supporting the President. We are still so polarized and I think the left perceives the Trump supporters unwillingness to argue and defend their positions for fear of the same type of backlash you see daily here as a vote for Biden. The silence speaks volumes and come election day you are going to be shocked yet again.

Maybe the polls are wrong, but most polls showed Hillary up by about 2 points. The polls are showing Biden up by 8 to 12 points. I think you are underestimating the dislike of Trump in this country. He still has is 40% floor that he will never lose no matter how bad he is, but even with the electoral college advantage he has, it will be as much a miracle for him to win as coronavirus being gone by April.
take a look at this board...and come election day you are going to be shocked yet again.
You may want to take a closer look at this board. I've never said anything except I think Trump will be re-elected. Frankly, I couldn't care less who the dem VP nominee is. I find all the polls/predictions/prognostications re the election for 2 years to be an enormous waste of my time so I don't participate in speculation. In 2016, I paid zero attention prior to Election Day except to vote in the NY primary, voted, & woke up to find Trump had won. THAT was a surprise. Having him win again in 2020 wouldn't surprise me in the least.
It may be easier for you to lump everyone of the same party into a single mindset, but it has nothing to do w/reality.
I think you are underestimating the dislike of Trump in this country.
And I believe you are overestimating the "power" of assumption. People don't disagree, therefore they are voting for Biden.
Once again the "Fly-over" states will reign
I never underestimate the power of ignorance.
Is this a Biden reference?
Periodically I feel the need to do a confidence post, reality check, and use The Charity Challenge to give any believer in Donald Trump the chance to win $. I take Biden, and you can have Trump. Bets start at $100.00.
For anyone who has taken the other challenge - that HC will enter as a candidate or be a VP on the ticket, I'm upping the odds to 3:1 to add to current bets.
Anybody game here? Back your posts & show your confidence in Trump to win & HC to be the VP nominee since you've already lost out on HC becoming the prez nominee.

You make is sound like Trump supporters are quiet wallflowers. I find them quite the opposite. Trump supporters love those red hats and they will use any opportunity to insult the "libtards" and hail Trump the greatest president in history. Those people are still out there, but fortunately they are a minority. But like Trump says, anything that doesn't praise him is fake news. Must be depressing for Trump when his favorite Fox News polls show him down 10 points to Biden.
Trump supporters love those red hats
And your point is?......Just who exactly do those red hats bother?
So, if you are "bothered" by a red hat. whose issue is that?
If you are bothered by people who are bothered by a red hat whose issue is that?
I am not. But the question remains. "What is the problem with the red hats"?
And your point is?

Brother BIGV, just because you and I are among the first group of voters in American history to cosplay for a United States President, they want to label us as radical extremist cult members, or something. There are many groups of people that wear identifiable clothing and symbols to mark themselves as members of a group or clan........it's not radical or abnormal at all, right? It's as American as apple pie to us true Patriots, am I right Brother BIGV?
The attempt at condescension is humorous; I am not your brother.
Clear?
What is the problem with Redcoats?
What is the problem with Bluecoats?
No problem with the apparel, but the sympathies they advertise.
So, is the the issue the alleged antagonist?...or the individual who claims the hat and wearer are purposely trying to antagonize?
If the answer is (B) you may be a snowflake
Big day yesterday.
One of the strangest things was seeing the airport parking lot so empty. They closed off the extended lot and let everyone park in long term at the extended rate ($8 a day). Limited airline workers at the baggage counters, not many customers. Security was a breeze, I'm TSA pre, there were only 2 of us going through for an 8:30am flight. Airport pretty dead except for a couple of gates that had flights. Some food shops open. Magazine/snack/book store open. All other shops closed. It felt like when you are at the airport late at night and everything is closed.
There was almost universal mask wearing in the airport. A rare exception of an individual who didn't have one on...some people had their's pulled down around their neck. Southwest is not sitting anyone in their middle seat through September 30th unless passengers are flying together they can sit there. Anyone who did not have a mask was given one at the gate. The only people I saw who didn't while boarding were teenage kids flying alone. SW gave them masks. SW offered snacks and water, no other beverages. The flight was maybe 2/3 full.
Rental car place was the least busy I've ever seen it. We were only people getting a car the entire time we were at the counter! Beats the 30minute or longer waits in line! That was really nice. Denver traffic wasn't bad for mid day.
Here in a rural mountain town of Colorado, I see more people wearing masks around town than I did back in Ohio. This county has had under 100 coronavirus cases, 3/4 of which came from nursing home residents and staff. Nobody is currently hospitalized here with covid, the hospital is at 40% capacity just with normal every day use.
Town is busy. Tourist season is here. Talked to my realtor friend, he said in some ways he is busier than normal. The number of closings are down and the days on market are up from both last month and this time last year. But median price is up.
Like Ohio, Colorado new cases have been steadily declining, as have hospitalizations. Felt ok about leaving a state that has good trajectory on numbers coming to a state that has good trajectory on numbers. Hopefully didn't catch anything at the airport or to and from.
Colorado no longer has a self isolation for out of state people. Restaurants here are open with limited seating, most have tried to expand outdoor seating. One town nearby closed a street so businesses could put tables out there. Breweries are not open it doesn't look like (edit - they're open to make beer, but not for customers to come drink). My friend goes to a local winery out here, he says they open up one day a week for customers.
We won't be spending much time around town anyway. In the mountains we go!
