Bravado. This is a word a doctor on CNN used on Saturday about COVID-19 infections that dropped in at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. The doctor used the word bravado to describe the attitude they have over there, but not in a good way. Bravado like in a stupid way. They are supposedly – but they are not – running the fight against the pandemic and they flagrantly violate the social distancing guidelines that they put out. They don’t wear face coverings. They don’t stand six feet apart. Remember a few weeks ago when we got in our mailboxes Donald Trump’s coronavirus guidelines. That’s why folks throughout the USA have given a big f_ck you to the rest of us on face coverings and social distancing. Those guys at 1600 Pennsylvania are setting a bad and wrong example.
I am not really surprised. It was expected.
That bravado attitude has three of the top doctors self-quarantining from their cribs today.
In case you haven’t figured it out. The 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue strategy for fighting COVID-19: let’s get reelected.
Commentary is not predicting a good outcome. H-Town has 4,531 infections. Baytown has 90. I went to Baytown yesterday. It seemed like proportionately there were a lot less folks wearing face coverings.
I was sad and stunned to hear the news Saturday that Harris County Clerk Diane Trautman was resigning for health reasons. I hope the best for her.
The Commissioners Court will pick an interim County Clerk and sometime this summer the Harris County Democratic Party Executive Committee will select a nominee to place on the November ballot. The Commissioners aren’t going to listen to Commentary, but I hope they pick a female. If they pick a male and the male ends up getting the Executive Committee’s nod, he will win this November but get knocked off in the 2022 Democratic Party Primary by a female sure enough. Dudes need not apply.
Julia Morales is going to be a mom. Congratulations.
The MLB Commissioner is supposed to lay out a plan of sorts to the owners today.
We have missed 41 regular season games. 20 of them at The Yard.
I got my Astros face masks this past weekend.
