Good move! If schools are closed it’s the perfect excuse to cancel in person voting. This is their real goal anyway, they need to cheat to win.

Harvard & Rutgers have already announced they’re going virtual this fall. Some here in PA (Penn State, Villanova) are starting mid-August and ending at Thankgsgiving (to avoid the back-and-forths around the holidays).

Besides tuition, who know how many millions lost in room-and-board, sports, etc.

He is desperate to try and reverse his slide in the polls. The Republicans are on track for a historic obliteration in November.

The very last place we should’ve closed were the schools. School needs to return to normal in the fall, no question about it.

Good. Expose kids to the virus. They don’t die, and they develop antibodies.

What’s bad about it?
For people younger than 45, the infection fatality rate right now is close to 0%.
