Quote
A reporter reminded President Donald Trump that he held campaign rallies in February and March. He responded by suggesting he didn't recall these rallies -- and saying that hasn't left the White House in "months" except for a coronavirus-related trip to Virginia in late March.

The Liar-in-Chief strikes again.

Such a little issue, but so vitally important to him.

Hey, seems like I'm not the only one worried that Georgia is going to fast.

I'm not opposed to dieting,  but that does seem extreme.

New record high in number of deaths, 7% above the old one and more than 25% higher than the "peak" that was predicted for almost a week ago.

If we get lucky and today is the peak and the next 9 days are no worse than the last 9 then we will finish April with 65,000 dead, and ultimately as little as 90k. That would be a blessing, no matter how awful it is as a raw number of dead.

Unfortunately, while there are reasons to see the total cases beginning to level off and maybe deaths, too - maybe - I don't think the latter group has peaked.

Dead horse beaten once again. Your continual flogging of an unsubstantiated study is bordering comic. Everyone, josh included, have acknowledged the French study. With all of the faults. The drug needs further study.


So you refute the numbers from that study?

Or do you think it was just random that such a high number recovered?
Dead horse. It has been explained to you too many times to think you will listen now.

Answer the question

Why?

You only answer about 10% of the questions you are asked and seldom intelligibly.

Plus you will either ignore or misrepresent the answer, when you get it.

Yeah! How dare he even think of behaving like one of those protestors you admire so much, but without a gun!

They’d have had a much stronger case if the plaintiff they named had been donald trump.

Some further study on the wonder drug that doesn’t work wonders

Your pathological and sycophantic need for Trump to be some COVID savant does not turn something into a scientifically valid study.


This has nothing to do with Trump touting this treatment - and nothing to do with the election


Its what I said - vs what Josh is putting forth.  And it began with his hissy fit when I posted an innocent comment on how antivirals could very well help stem the tide while we await a vaccine

The dude had a COW - it was insane.

a) Only with permission of Congress.

b) Good luck collecting, until and unless we have Chinese assets stockpiled.

I think Trump would be collecting (or offsetting) plenty - all bets are off with Uncle Joe

Officials say that in addition to extracting as large a financial judgment out of China as it can, Missouri is looking to hold the Chinese government officially accountable for its alleged actions to exacerbate the coronavirus pandemic and potentially bring further facts about how the Chinese government handled the virus, and possibly about the virus' origin, to light.

"An appalling campaign of deceit, concealment, misfeasance, and inaction by Chinese authorities unleashed this pandemic," the suit reads. "During the critical weeks of the initial outbreak, Chinese authorities deceived the public, suppressed crucial information, arrested whistleblowers, denied human-to-human transmission in the face of mounting evidence, destroyed critical medical research, permitted millions of people to be exposed to the virus, and even hoarded personal protective equipment—thus causing a global pandemic that was unnecessary and preventable
