Last time i checked this is still a free country. We do not need the health department following us around telling us how to live. Btw, why isnt your channel covering all the court cases happening with the election? Why are you not covering the thousands of cases of voter fraud?

The country is at a very fragile state right now, and if a person were to get drunk on power, it could be very damaging to the morale of that community. That's why our government built-in checks and balances into its law making process, unfortunately there are loop holes that can be exploited.

Local administrations know what is happening in their city/county and should be allowed to enact orders accordingly. (And, except possibly in the case of very small towns, these decisions are not really made by one person - there are others that help create the orders.)

Plenty of people already ignore mask orders & add to the COVID-19 spread. Many follow the orders BECAUSE there are orders. Many cities and citizens have been slow to react, if they even do, to stopping the virus. Apparently concern for the health of others rates under temporary discomfort of masks.

We already have a military presence in Greenland. Denmark is a NATO ally. Trump should NOT be threatening the European balance or the time-tested established order. This has ramifications far beyond Trump's ego.

US should not invade other countries. Never Greenland or Venezuela. This is Trump enriching himself. Dangerous and destroying US reputation on human rights.

We have existing agreements with Greenland and Denmark regarding military bases. We should expand on that, rather than threaten to take the entire country by force 'if necessary'

Trump made a deal that everyone loves. All over the EU.

The referees are determining the winners. The NFL has become a giant money laundering system. There is nothing there for me anymore, but I have a lot more time with my lovely wife, and our friends.

The Chief's biggest mistake was signing Taylor Swift. That's when it all went South, and now the team is moving West.
