On a related note…..it appears “Trump country” (rural areas) may be in for a rude Awakening.

‘It Really Is the Perfect Storm’: Coronavirus Comes for Rural America

Rural areas, sparsely populated though they are, are more vulnerable to coronavirus than you might think, says Carrie Henning-Smith, a professor of health policy at the University of Minnesota who studies rural communities. Many in the outsize rural elderly population depend on children and other family caregivers who must also work at jobs outside the home. Unlike city-based finance, software and media jobs that readily move online, rural jobs tend to be in industries, many of them designated “essential,” that require showing up and working at close quarters: agriculture, manufacturing, fishing, mining, retail, tourism and recreation. Even before Covid-19 hit, Henning-Smith’s research found that “rural caregivers were dramatically less likely to be able to work at home” than their urban counterparts. “And they had less access to sick leave and time off.” All this makes it harder for them to safely distance themselves and protect their families.

Excellent suggestions. Trump has been using his press conference as a campaign rally sucking up all the attention. Joe has to come out and make his presence felt. I love Cuomo but he gets all the attention right now. Joe has to make a case he can do better and these ideas DJ posted seem the best so far to me. I really like the idea about announcing Labor Secretary and Treasury. That could sway a lot of people who need hope that something better is coming.

If Joe Biden adopts this or a similar COVID19 campaign strategy, he won’t need in-person political rallies, door-to-door campaign stops, or any of the traditional trappings of a political era gone by.

I can’t believe how late I am in responding to this! Working from home is throwing me off…Lol

BRAVO DJ!!! (standing up and applauding). Your entire post is On. Point. But especially your “(new) COVID19 campaign strategy.” I love it!

And frankly, I think Biden should hire YOU as his new COVID19 campaign strategist. 🙂
