Just like the cult of “trump can do no wrong?”

Trump can, and does, a lot wrong. But he was the lesser of two evils in 2016 and he’s the lesser of two evils in 2020.

The least of many evils, and overall not too
bad.

Also to get back on track my furlough estimate is something less than 1600. In other words, some mitigation but perhaps not 100%.

This is what I think it will be as well. I'm forecasting 1000. I'm in that number

Not exactly alike, but similar in some aspects.

Same, interested to see what the mitigations are. With the amount of discussion internally and not much info leaking I’m inclined to think there is going to be something but at the same time I think some furlough is unavoidable without government assistance. If it happens, I’ll be on the list for sure.

I have a feeling it will be like 1250-1300 minimum. Half of the warn notices for now and the full over staff minus retirements. I hope you are right and I am wrong.

I'm out regardless. But it's better than not.

United posted a message on their pilot scheduling website yesterday that said they were increasing the number of furloughs by 1250 for a total of 3900.
