Trump wants Tommy - or is it Tomy - in the Senate



Trump wins.

That one. Not others.

Your incessant blindness and refusal to address the serious failures of Mr. Trump are like a pebble in one's shoe.

overmilitious

Every so often I realize how you can think Trump is a smart man.

And he wants us to think his position doesn't boil down to "Some teachers might die?  Who gives a fuck?"

Sessions currently suffering consequences of going against the leader of the free world.

Like Vindman and others.

Trump is a lot of things.

"leader of the free world" is Merkel, at the moment, not Trump.

And Vindman didn't go against Trump. Neither did Sessions.

Your fevered dream "reality" is bogus. Your us against them narrative is naive. And your belief that Trump is out for anybody but himself and his children is just stupid.

That's the point.

No, that wasn't your point.  Your point was to take a statement out of context as support of a dumb unsupported argument you have made here before.

Teenage depression must be watched closely as well.  Drug use just a part of the picture.

So then watch teenage depression and drug use and provide support for that.  Don't use irrelevant arguments against the science to support the "president's" political goals.  That isn't the job of the CDC.

I dont think you understand the issue fully

Its ok.

It's so good that we have an expert here to inform us, Mr. Kruger.

But you could care less about that.  All you care to do is yell "scoreboard."



Occasionally - as is my right.

Privilege, not right.

Also, just flat wrong.  A teacher is more likely to get the virus while spending most of his or her time isolating at home or spending 30 minutes in the grocery store where everyone is isolating and wearing a mask than spending 8 hours in a poorly ventilated interior space with kids unlikely to be wearing their masks all the time and where socially isolating is impossible?



Or from another adult at school - yes.

It's not either/or.  Do both.  The more precautions the better.  (and she was right to list masks first).  Then again she's a Euro, and probably is wondering what the hell is wrong with stupid Americans that they can't just simply wear masks.


Yes.  Have mask in pocket or around neck and socially distance.  Put mask on when situation dictates

If positive there will be no such situation - no need for such face covering..

Because nobody is ever sure about things, but wrong.


Really not that difficult to understand

Out for a bike ride - no mask on.  Stop at the 7-Eleven and it gets put on.

Its self-evident to anyone paying any attention to what has been going on that unless the teacher is spending their free time drinking inside a crowded bar (something not possible to do in most states) the classroom setting provides by far the biggest threat to that teacher for transmission.

And your second line is wrong too, as that other adult at school will be more likely to be able to keep their distance, is more likely to wear a mask, and won't be spending as much time with that teacher in a classroom than their 30 students.

So you've proven your ignorance yet again kiidcarter8.  For like the fifth time just today.

Is your inability to understand the basics on this issue because you think that a young person, who is less likely to be adversely affected by the virus, is also less likely to transmit it?

Can you really be so ill-informed?

In time, you may understand.


Just to sum up - is it your position that no schools in the US should open?

Kiid has a dream that the whole country beside him will catch Covid-19 and develop the lifelong cognitive, neurological, and circulatory damage as a result.

He feels this is his best chance not to feel like the dumbest person in any room for once in his life.

It’s not a good plan, but it’s Kiid’s plan.

Let’s go!!!!!

https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/14/politics/trump-administration-coronavirus-hospital-data-cdc/index.html

As I am sure you have by now heard...


You wearing your mask over your eyes again?

Nose and mouth kid, cover your nose and mouth.

Jusr because Trump wants to keep you in the dark doesn't mean you have to blind yourself to the truth.

I posted about it yesterday, you must have missed it.


Speaking of running the #s

Sounds like someone wants to fix the #s

and keep the public in the dark

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/14/world/coronavirus-updates.html?action=click&module=Alert&pgtype=Homepage#link-47bd459f

The Trump administration has ordered hospitals to bypass the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and, beginning on Wednesday, send all coronavirus patient information to a central database in Washington — a move that has alarmed public health experts who fear the data will be distorted for political gain.

The new instructions are contained in a little-noticed document posted this week on the Department of Health and Human Services’ website, Sheryl Gay Stolberg reports. From now on, H.H.S., and not the C.D.C., will collect daily reports about the patients that each hospital is treating, how many beds and ventilators are available, and other information vital to tracking the pandemic.


Now I know you're new to mask etiquette, but don't hide your eyes, just cover your nose and mouth.

Hi yo Silver!
