Nah....

Weak.

You are a self-serving, sniveling, sanctamonius slug.

You cannot admit that you are wrong almost ever (though more often than Ward can).

Yeah - have to expect 100+ K in the end.

Total failure - except if you ask those who recovered through the passion, diligence and work ethic of fellow Americans.

100K or more dead due to government failure to protect its citizens. 

Lack of preparation, slow response, disorganization, downplaying the risk.

All the blame on Trump. 

He's the president and decided a Coordinated National Response wasn't necessary.  That a daily dose of Trump on TV would do wonders for America.  The Trump Admin had plenty of warning and info on the virus and was too inept so that 1M will become infected and 100K dead and the shutdowns necessary were longer than otherwise needed (and there patchwork character was another mistake).
A terrible outcome, with lots of needless deaths, illnesses, human tragedy, worry.

The US has very good hospitals, equipment and medical personnel.  Btw, 30% of doctors in the US are foreign born.  The problem in the US is access and cost.  And that we tolerate a middleman system where the insurance companies make a profit by rationing and denying care.  So the poor don't get routine checkups and only enter the health care system when their medical condition is pretty bad.  Other issues include lifestyle and nutrition choices, obesity, and drug abuse.

Think those people wearing MAGA hats would have been there but for Trump's comments?


Trump shouldnt be held accountable, no - for any act committed by someoine in a red MAGA hat.
Not the point of my post. But you knew that.

The Whitmer for Biden Veep campaign seems to be on life support.

Forget her unpopular state lockdown orders that led to protests. ( her response was along the lines of Shut Up! Obey!)

She wasn't going to ever be Biden's Veep nor was she campaigning for it.

But sure, her chances got cut in half from 0% down to 0/2%.
I would also point out that there is no evidence Whitmer's lock down was unpopular in general. As opposed to unpopular with a small number of people triggered by Trump.
LOL!
So as usual you have absolutely nothing to back up your claim.
I didn’t make any claim.
Liar.
I didn’t make any claim.
I bolded your claim, liar.

Him and his buddy are slooooow animals, my Hairy friend.

ND border boondoggle building grift continues full steam, while under investigation, amidst the pandemic, as folks climb over, cut, or walk through the product when it doesn’t fall over in the wind.

Build the wall is a syphilitic’s idea of how to steal money as President. Slow animals don’t change their behavior so well as situations and circumstances change. The nature of these beasts, these slow animals, just gets more obvious as they fall further out of step with the world.

At least one vaccine candidate has been approved for human trials. Hope springs if we just hunker down.

I suspect this may be a false correlation which some of you will be able to figure out.

But...

he's only stopping Green Cards. How many is that, exactly, and does it stop them from coming to the country? No. Nor does it stop them from having jobs to come to.

And only for 60 days.

BS move from top to bottom, designed to appeal to his base, without having substance to it.
