I wonder what cover this is providing for Johnson. The UK exception is obviously arbitrary.

In this moment, when the economy is and will be sideways, the better tack for Trump is to look strong rather than laissez faire.

Voters, most low information, want decisive leaders.
Still hoping for that moment when he turns presidential, are we?

Last night's speech was clearly written by Stephen Miller. Preventing only citizens of Schengen area countries from coming here is not about public health, its about Miller's fetish for border controls. Decisive, maybe, but a decision about something completely irrelevant to the reality that people have been getting six inside the country for weeks and the federal government has done fuck-all about it.

Seems like a terrible moment to have opened a bar or restaurant. Hope all our friends are doing OK.

Once Trump is out of office, what happens to Stephen Miller? He's young, but what will he do with the rest of his life?

I'd love to invest in e-sports now. With all the major professional leagues shutting down, and lots of people stuck at home and hungry for entertainment, I bet it's their time.
