Dear @potterybarn (and other retailers) : I am NOT shopping by appointment. You're allowed to be open, so be open. And why close at 5 when mall is open until 7? Do you actually want to sell anything?

Love how lefties are so worked up about my last tweet which highlights the frustrations so many have about how slow NC economy is reopening - slower than most states. Maybe they believe govt should continue to write checks forever and keep the entire economy closed?

96k US deaths are tragic but of Mecklenburg Co's 72 deaths, 100% had pre-existing conditions or were in nursing homes. We should be laser focused on protecting the most vulnerable. That's were most governments have failed in dealing w this crisis.
