    I am doing my part to stop the spread. Just like President Trump is doing his part. What's your part? Fearmongering?

    Statistics are statistics no matter who cites the numbers. I'm sorry your plan to blame Trump is failing. Did you blame Obama for the Swine Flu?

    YOU propagated falsehoods. That is NEVER acceptable.

    Fear isn't resolved by lying. Lying undermines every shred of trust and points to being out of control. that is a CAUSE of fear.

    I don't blame Trump for COVID.

    And, Obama's reaction was to create an agency that would plan for pandemic response in America.

    Unfortunately, Trump fired them. So we're going with NO plan.

    And, I DO blame Trump for lying at every one of his COVID briefings and for failing to listen to medical science.

    Has done nothing, your going to go with has done nothing? Maybe your wanna switch to has not done enough, at least that is a point of debate.

    If you are going with nothing then your bias is clear and anything else you have to say is rage filled meaningless BS.

    You do not have a 3% chance of dying.

    You still can not understand what a death rate is and how it is determined.

    I'll try and help you one more time...

    #____ of dead / #_____ of infected = death rate %

    It is not in any way shape or form

    #____ of dead / #____ of known Infected as you are determined to try and convince people it is.

    Huge difference. So you can keep posting your utter BS and people can keep calling you out on it or you can stop, think and try and post accurate information.

    Take solace in this Smartie. The cure for the China virus is conservatism. Personal hygiene is a conservative trait, don’t live like a dirty hippie. Social distancing, hell that our mantra, that’s why we live on property outside of town. Conservatives don’t live in apartments in places like NYC where they stack themselves like cordwood.
    The China virus is going to be especially hard on the left because of their habitat.

    I didn't say he has done nothing. I cited a couple of specific examples of what he HAS done.

    He has lied. He trivialized the entire threat for weeks. He attacked Dems for perpetrating a hoax. He likely led millions to ignore the threat for a month and take unnecessary risks. Hell, he may be responsible for the death of the pastor who called it a hoax, and then died from it.. He spews out his wild-eyed fantasies as facts and then has to be corrected by his own people. He attacks Governors who aren't appreciative enough...

    What else would you like to know?

    I would like to know how many people trump will have killed because of this crackpot nonsense. I'm guessing thousands at least; perhaps tens of thousands before this is over.

    No, an opinion that is massively different than what we know from science based medicine.

    "Trump has done nothing to lessen the spread. That has all been done at the State level. Reason number two why your meme is inane"

    Post #92 on this thread.

    Must have been your twin brother.


    And BS on your talking point "attack" on governors

    https://www.foxnews.com/media/new-york-times-defends-maggie-haberman-trump

    Edited NY Times lies.

    He is not responsible for anyone ones death, much less that pastors.

    What else would you like to know? You clearly can not recall you own post or do a bit of research before you fire off talking pints that are false as hell so perhaps you need help with other basic things.

    First it’s not 100s of 1000s dead. However if the choice is global economic collapse? The only logical choice is that or death? What good is saving the lives of those people if there isn’t a stable world left or their savings are gone and have no money to live on anymore? And their kids. And their grandchildren. I mention the age because the vast majority are older, elderly and already sick. It logically is. It worth it.

    if I was 80 and had a good life I’d rather my kids and grandkids not suffer, than me live another few years. Because I might live, but EVERYONE would suffer. That is quite selfish.

    Just like abortion, right? Gotta admire folks who pick & choose their scientific evidence in spite of the fact that scientists rarely agree on any subject. Especially those with a political leaning.

    Abortion??? Do you mean COVID?

    If you find any medical expert who disagrees with something I've said, please do post it.

    Been reading long? I said JUST LIKE ABORTION, meaning we probably have differing opinions on that subject, too and could no doubt provide scientific studies to back up both our opinions.

    Means you have a 50/50 chance of being wrong/right.

    I know, truth hurts, huh? :(
