The Rick Smith Show

Bob Ney: The Ohio primary has been called off. Rick: The Democrats would have to sue if they want their primary? Bob: Yes. I think Biden's campaign made an official stmt but I haven't seen one from Bernie's.

Propane Jane: Our emergency rooms got so backed out there was a 72-hour wait; patients were literally on death's door before they could see a doctor.

Pedro da Costa: If it were a normal week, & Trump announced he was restricting travel to Europe, it would cause a recession. We're three months or more behind China in reacting to coronavirus, so it'll probably be worse here.

@pdacosta

Fred Kowal: Our union has faculty in the classrooms as well as professionals who run the residence halls, & we also represent workers in teaching hospitals so they're on the front line.

Dr. Kelly Sennholz: I believe that we're talking abt hour by hour. Every hour we allow this to go on without doing anything to stop the transition will result in more disease & more death. It's unconscionable that we've waited 2 mos

Sarah Burris: I feel like my paranoia has finally paid off--all those rolls of TP I've stockpiled for the last several months, all the pantry items I've stored--it's now paying off.

Nat Sowinski: We need this urgently, now, not hung up in committee. We need for workers to be able to take time off, if need be, and without worrying about pay.

Jessica Goodheart: Electability is the big concern of this election. In 2016, 11% of voters said having a candidate who could win was important to them, and this year 56% of voters say electability is important.

Jeff Bryant: Here in NC, charter schools set up as "non-profit" while they have a for-profit subsidiary that owns the bldg & leases it to charter, even though the public school system paid for it. Public school would have to buy it back if they want it

Mark Votruba: People sometimes lose the sense of identity they had with their jobs. Being respectful of that is necessary.

Robert S. Weiner: I think the GOP will do a Benghazi on Hunter Biden. Biden will fight back, and he'll fight back hard. #RickShow

Keith Pochick: Reinforcing good hygienic practices that maybe we've gotten away from is a good idea;keeping a social distance from folks via foot shakes,elbow bumps is good;avoiding touching our faces goes a long way towards preventing spread

@DemWrite

Propane Jane: The GOP possibly passed around the coronavirus at CPAC, which is especially ironic since they considered the virus to be a hoax.

Bob Ney: I'm a hawk on this trade stuff; the trade war had to happen; we have to make China change. We've become so dependent on China, even for parts. I say, Go after China.

@BobNey

Phil Glover: I go back to Reagan, & I don't ever remember anyone before Trump required a loyalty oath.

Kenneth M. Mash: There's a retirement incentive to try to get 200 faculty members to retire. It denies the ability for students to be taught be knowledgeable, experienced faculty.
