Coronavirus

Not true. It is literally impossible to know where any set of actions other than the ones we actually take would lead, but it is not at all impossible to believe that if we would have instead used a fraction of the stimulus package money in order to fully quarantine the most vulnerable portions of our population, while simultaneously keeping the economy running, that we wouldn't have ultimately achieved a better outcome. Remember, corona is not the only thing that kills. Poverty is a killer too, and if we decide to cut the legs out from under our economy for an extended period of time we are going to experience a ton of that.

They’ll drop into poverty if we choose to let them drop into poverty. We just opened up a 2 trillion pocketbook

the notion that letting people die from disease is in our country’s best long term economic interest is both flawed and immoral.
 
Also, BTW, like most Dems, Thriller wasn't actually a Biden supporter. The entire Democratic party just got drunk in Vegas one night. Soon they are going to wake up and be horrified to realize that they accidentally got married to a senile candidate who literally personifies everything they'd been previously claiming that they did not want.

That... sounds like the Republican Party in 2016 and now it’s the party of Trump.

November will be interesting.

Biden doesn't seem like a viable candidate anymore. He's been so infirm in his few media appearances this week, it just doesn't seem like he's going to be up to the task. In one of his fundraisers in Georgia he was reportedly telling donors that he would need to be replaced by his VP nominee early on. It's also possible that the DNC will nominate someone else at the convention when it's said and done. It's not that Biden has gaffes, per se. He has spells where he can barely talk.
 
Here's some cold water to throw on Dr Birx unrealistically optimistic statements at the press briefing today.

I got this in the mail today.
Good idea I think to send these out to peopleImage%20(1).jpegImage%20(2).jpeg

China just closed the country for incoming foreign nationals regardless of visa types. Only returning Chinese can enter. 90% of new foreign cov are actually brought by them ,the returning Chinese.
 
Trump, the narcissistic POS he is, sadly lives another day. Just have to hope he gets the virus and Big Macs aren’t the cure.
 
Assuming other countries are reporting accurately. Either way its not great though.

Is there anybody who is assuming China is being accurate? I think we all know they aren't.

Anyways, based on our population, it was a given the US was going to have the highest numbers. Pretty poor way for people to frame it, imo.
 
"No greater love hath Trump than to lay down your life for his reelection.

Only a once-in-a-century leader has the guts to say out loud what the worst among us are really thinking: everyone other than me is expendable."

(I did not see the pandemic coming in election season 2016. But, I most definetly felt that, if elected, this is the type of amoral leader we would see emerge at some point. The very reason, on so many occasions, in so many words, I said : "you guys know this is a demagogue, right, right"?? I've been "accused" of being on a near 4 year "quest" to focus on this man child's many faults/flaws. Well, duh, ya think?):
