CORONAVIRUS: “The [coronavirus] lockdowns are doing tremendous damage to these Democrat-run states where they’re locked out, sealed up, suicide rates, drug rates, alcoholism, deaths by so many different forms. You can’t do that. And I want to just congratulate the Governor and everybody in Florida.
You’re open and open for business and doing great. And we’ve got to remember, I said it right at the beginning, the cure cannot be worse than the problem itself, it can’t. The cure cannot be worse, but if you don’t feel good about it, if you want to stay, stay, relax, stay. But if you want to get out there, get out.”
