These poor healthcare workers! Think how betrayed they must feel. My thanks to each and every one! They are the heroes of this disaster❣️♥️♥️♥️

Vote Trump, his ego and Republican enablers out in November...
We are literally fighting for our lives and that of our loved ones.

[rgwak]

If you're out there not wearing a mask, but at the same time telling people that you love our first responders....then clearly, you really don't.

[katherinechase]

Yes, I agree here. We need a conservative, synthesized approach. With the summer weather, and the reopening of the economy, people now have a false sense of security. I have noticed, where I am, in southern California, some people being in an abject state of denial. Yes, this can keep you feeling better psychologically for awhile, but, boy, not a good solution overall :(

Get Trump out of office so that we can get out of this pandemic. Trump IS the obstacle to getting through this pandemic.

[PuertoRicoBoxing]

That one dislike is a trump silent majority"

[corkyvanderhaven]

This guy is the man.

Bring him on more
He will engage in more than a flippant segment
Be smart and bring him back over and over for more than fluff questions
Come on
Your producers know this
Utilize him!
He will deliver the cold hard truth if you want it
Do you

We need A National Shelter in Place ordered for at least 45 days, but unfortunately the current President and administration won't do it, so we won't see any sustainable change until January after we get a new President. Please Vote this man out so we all have a chance to live our best lives.

I think one of the most powerful videos that you could make would be that with photos of the health care workers and first responders that lost their lives. I saw photos of some somewhere early on, when they already numbered too many and I couldn't get it off my mind.

[radwulfeboraci]

Those health care workers are cannon fodder to Trump and the RepubliKKKlans 'herd immunity' plan. It's the one they had from the start, it was what all the foot-dragging was about Feb/Mar, it's what all the early opening talk May/June was about cuz it's harmless, it's why you have no PPE cuz he never put the act in motion to create a dedicated US supply. Wake up.

[mmspost]

My favorite doctor. He was on Joe Rogan as well.

[m.l.]

How are you not all protesting this?
If this would happen here in germany we would be rioting in the streets, demanding that our goverment puts their act together and do their effing job for wich we pay them to do.
How can you tolerate this? I really can't understand.

[agrainofsalt]

America as a country is the problem, not only Donald Trump.

If you just talk and let him do whatever he wants, you all are partially accountable.

[Wendy-jtln]

1000 of them were healthcare workers!!
They sacrificed their lives for ppl who still refused to wear mask or social distancing!!
So sad for them and their family!!

[KCsFunHouse]

Wow that’s heartbreaking I had no idea so many healthcare workers had died

[jimmiller]

Poor leadership is why we are screwed. Vote blue in November

[shawnaweesner]

As of July 10, 2020, over 1, 000 healthcare workers have died in this country, and most of them acquired CoVid19 at work.

[dasstigma]

I keep saying it as long as this is disaster is going on...
Some day, someone will call that genocide.
Maybe, people who read this will start to realise what I was talking about months ago when I said the exact same thing for the first time.

[dianepelchat]

Because You did not listen to the doctors and scientists ...that's why you're here where you are now..

[rhondawasson]

Exactly! We are actually at war. It just looks a little different, but the similarities are striking.
