    Like I said, you place all the blame on him and give no credit. Just political bias BS from you to fit your narrative. Nothing new. You are a broken record at this point.

    No doubt this is where you and the other weak knees want the govt to head...you know "for our safety"

    I kind of like the cell phone idea, but then I don't go to a lot of places I'm ashamed of. :)

    They were wrong with their doom and gloom 500,000 to 2,000,000 dead predictions, they just can not admit it and thus stick to their narrative about how deadly this thing is. It's such a weak position to hold that they are getting desperate in their attempt to defend it. As the country opens this week they will get even more desperate and silly in their attempts to spin their narrative.

    Did you just post "if you have nothing to hide you should not mind if you are tracked?"

    The amount of blood given to defend the COTUS and freedom and you just piss it away so you can "feel" a little safer?

    The cowardly nature of that speaks for itself.

    South Korea was able to mobilize mass testing at the start of the pandemic, which enabled them to control the spread of the disease and minimize the economic impact. But I guess the people there are spoiled rotten and expect entitlements from the government.

    I find it really dumb to bitch and moan about a projection made about a virus for which there was almost zero information and expected to make projections based on the behavior of hundreds of millions of people over the course of a year.

    The newer models placed the range of deaths, assuming full compliance, at around 35K-185K. We are now on track for around 75K dead and you want to pretend that the pandemic control measures did nothing.

    It's not tracking you it's telling you who you were close to that had the virus.

    Is it worse than having your wife's best friend asking you what you were doing at Mary's house all night?

    Are you talking about the lockdown where they closed none of the mass transit systems in major cities especially the NYC subways?

    If it is not tracking you how does it know where you are and thus if you are close to someone with the virus?

    And yes the govt tacking you in this way is worse than your wife tracking you. Legally and morally. Do I even need to explain why?

    Why not go ahead and give up our rights in regard to search and seizure, if you have nothing to hide I mean? How safe would the ability of the police to stop and search anyone, go door to doo to enter houses to do searches etc...

    Of course that is a lot of manpower needed to do that many searches to keep us all safe, maybe the military can help them.....

    Compared to what, models you just admitted are based on nothing?
    And, you have no data to demonstrate controll measures accomplished anything.

    If you're gonna play armchair scientist, at least get a chair with arms

    S Korea is a totally different culture and society than in America. Not a apt comparison to the worlds most diverse culture and economy that we have here in good ole America..

    Your first sentence is laughable if I go back and look at the dozens of posts you made a month ago.

    It would look great against the models you were inundating us daily with a mere 6 weeks ago. 20-30 million infections and 2 million deaths in America. That was after the guidelines from the Whitehouse came out. Crazy how the same guys are now calling today's numbers horrible and it's all Trumps fault. Yea it's Trump's fault he reduced the number of infected by what 25 plus million and the deaths from this virus by 1.9 million. You lefties on here are hilarious. Your blasting an amazing feat compared to the numbers you were pushing. You got Ron praising the governors for following the Whitehouse plans and blasting Trump. You got other lefties saying it's Trump's fault for not banning all travel to the US, even though they were blasting him for banning China and then even Europe when it got hot. You got other lefties saying screw the working man he needs to stay home and not go back to work screw his livelihood.

    Crazy times to have a pandemic during an election year and watching the hyperpartisans turn every day into a way to prove disaster for the President.

    Neither. My behavior doesn't affect you at all.

    On the other hand, your behavior on this forum affects everyone who reads your posts, therefore for or your own good and the good of the public I am issuing you the following orders. Effective immediately until a vaccine is available:

    1) Under no circumstances are you to venture outside at all. That includes no going out to the grocery store, pharmacy, or anywhere else in public.

    2) Under no circumstances are you to have any food, medicine, clothing and other supplies delivered to your home unless you can confirm that they have been sanitized during the entire production, shipping and delivery process. Since it is impossible for you to confirm this, under no circumstances are you to have anything delivered to your home.

    3) For the good of the public, terminate your social media accounts (Political Forum, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) and cease all contact with the public. We need everyone to remain calm and rational right now and you have intentionally refused to do so, therefore you are going to have to be isolated.

    4) You may maintain communications with your family members, and given that you only have 45 to 60 days to live now would be a good time to make peace with your mortality, yourself, your loved ones and your God (if you have one) and to get your affairs and estate in order.

    Goodbye and Godspeed, Lesh.

    The lefty media sold that BS weeks ago to make Trump look like a failure and in truth set up Trump to look like a hero when the number came in at a upwards of 95% lower than predicted.

    That is a political fumble of epic status.

    A) No, those models came out before guidelines from the Whitehouse emerged and they came out loooooong before Trump realized this virus was a threat.

    B) Please do run a campaign ad that touts 60K dead Americans in five weeks.

    C) The original models have not been proven wrong and it is ****ing dumb to credit Trump for saving hypothetical Americans.

    PS - I am happy that you learned to stop trying to demonstrate your ability to do subtraction everytime you reference those original projections from six weeks ago. Or perhaps you still think the number of dead Americans is still 2,199,960 away from that 2.2 million estimate?
