And what response has Ralph given to your idea? I am guessing that he passed on the opportunity! Where would he get the money to even start his campaign? From the legions of believers that have signed onto your brilliant strategy?

Your plan does nothing to get the Big Money out of politics as campaign donations are capped at $5400. PAC’s and SuperPAC’s have no caps. They don’t even have to report where, specifically, their money has come from. Politicians are not bought by major corporation through campaign donations. You want to focus on donations of $5400 while ignoring the $10 million donations that PAC’s can receive.

Do you really think it is wise to call for denying people medical treatment based on their criminal history given your own personal legal troubles? Being in the country without proper documentation is an administrative misdemeanor. Are you also suggesting that we deny medical treatment to anyone currently with a suspended license — since they, too, are criminals?

Or is this just one of your xenophobic rules that apply to people Trump has told you are scary and you should fear?

Ironicly enough, Elba's message is the SAME message as President Trump's...

"DON'T PANIC... REMAIN CALM"

Democrat's message???

"DON'T BE CALM!!! DON'T BE CALM!!! PANIC!!!! PANIC!!!!"

President Trump is doing EXACTLY what ya'all have told him to do..

What do you want to bet that ya'all STILL attack him for it.. :eyeroll:

Hate and Bigotry.. That's all ya'all got...

Even the one's held in Weigantia??? :D

Can't protect people from LIFE...

Most everyone here should pretend we're talking about JUST President Trump supporters..

Then they won't have *ANY* problem just letting them die..

Even a moron like you can be accurate with your "facts" with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight...

DUH...

I still have that large space in your head, eh' nuck? :D

You just CAN'T help but swoon over me.. :D

As usual, your Trek analogy is sophomoric and shows how utterly ignorant you are of Trek...

I was amused last week, like all previous weeks where Trump opens that cut under his nose and word salad is served, Trump proudly announced that he had 'made a deal' with the medical insurance industry to cover the costs of,and relating to, C19. Naturally, I spat out my beer upon the hearing of this most generous act of kindness.

What? Are these parasites abandoning the pan-American 20th century zeitgeist of survival of the wealthiest?

Nope, as usual, Trump got the simplest thing wrong or just flat out lied (Trump's usual go-to's) about the insurance industry's benevolence.

What a cluster fuck. Seriously, you can't refer to a 'public healthcare system' that by design isn't interested in you unless you grease their palms, as 'public'. Why even discuss whether illegal aliens should get medical attention when the citizenry at large are themselves over-burdoned by medical expenses because of the neolithic belief that medical care is only a right of the wealthy, and the poor, huddled masses be damned.

And I now circle back, after having taken the scenic route through the swamp, to the Star Trek reference...The episode was "Symbiosis" In this installment, Picard and the Enterprise rescue a couple of scruffy cats and their cargo from destruction along with two other, nicely turned out, individuals. (coincidentally, the two males were also rivals in Wrath of Khan) Long story short, it turns out that the cargo is in fact 'medicine' that one, presumably the scruffy society, can't live without. It later turns out that the medicine had long since served its purpose and was now being produced as an addictive drug, to the detriment of one society and boon to the other. After much debate, "a deal" is made and the 'medicine' is handed over, as the producers contritely confirm that they are living in the lap of luxury, while the addicted struggle to produce payment for their imposed addiction.

Sound familiar? It should.

Insurance company's waiving fees for a test that no one in America bothered to order in time, because payment was an issue, is as stupid as it gets. That's the truth of it and you all know it, not a single set of bollocks was in the chain to simply say " order ten million, we'll figure out the math when the dust settles." Meanwhile, more people have been tested in Spuzzum, British Columbia, where they thought they were 'beyond Hope', than in the entire US of A.

LL&P

So, tens of thousands of UNNECESSARY deaths of the most vulnerable among us is acceptable to you???

It was acceptable to you under Odumbo..

That's the FACT that you don't get or you simply refuse to acknowledge..

NON SEQUITOR. NOT COMPARABLE.

You saying it's not comparable does not make that factually accurate..

It's indeed EXACTLY comparable.. You just don't like what the comparison says about you.. It PROVES yer nothing but a Party slave...

EXACTLY TRUE. Glad you AGREE.

"I said I understood.. I didn't say I agree."
-Spock, STAR TREK, A Taste Of Armageddon

I understand that your SOLE BASIS for your hysteria is the fact that you don't like President Trump and you worshipped Odumbo...

NO OTHER CONCLUSION fits the FACT that you scream hysterically against President Trump when some 50-odd Americans have died and you were COMPLETELY silent when Odumbo's incompetence killed over TWELVE THOUSAND Americans with Odumbo's Swine Flu pandemic...

NOT an ADVANTAGE, and NOT what I said.

It sure as hell is an advantage.. It's EXACTLY what you said..

You just don't like the characterization because it PROVES you put the welfare of illegal immigrant criminals over your fellow Americans..

So where is your compassion for your fellow Human???

I have no compassion for scumbags who violate our laws with impunity...

Lying in a cot being treated for life threatening pneumonia is being pampered????

It's NOT life-threatening, you dolt!!!

That's just your ignorant hysteria talking..

NOT REALISTIC or even PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE to deport them ALL.

Bullshit.. If you can shut down a country you can deport illegal immigrant scumbags...

You just have to have the morality and the will..

So it still begs the question, what the HELL do you do with those SICK who REMAIN behind???

There WON'T BE ANY illegal immigrant criminals left behind..

NOT FACTUALLY ACCURATE

When we deport all illegal immigrants criminals, then there won't be any illegal immigrant criminals to get Americans sick and there won't be any need to give illegal immigrant criminals health care that should go for Americans..

DUH...

"Here is REALITY if Coronavirus was left to spread UNCHECKED:

And if it does, the VAST MAJORITY of Americans ***WILL SURVIVE***..."

So, tens of thousands of UNNECESSARY deaths of the most vulnerable among us is acceptable to you???

"It's less deadly then the simple flu fer christ's sake.."

LIE. FALSE. Have you not been PAYING ATTENTION!!! Argue with Dr. Fauci of the CDC, NOT ME.

Dr. Fauci, DIRECT QUOTE / Congressional Hearing:

"COVID-19 is at least 10 times “more lethal” than the seasonal flu, even if the mortality rate drops far below the World Health Organization’s current estimate of 3.4%."

"Over TWELVE THOUSAND Americans died under Odumbo..

Did YOU say a thing about it then?? NO you did not.."

NON SEQUITOR. NOT COMPARABLE.

"Don'tcha think it's kinda hypocritical that you hysterically attack President Trump because some 50-odd Americans died..

And you were COMPLETELY silent when over TWELVE THOUSAND Americans died..."

LONG TERM TRENDS, makes this comparison, COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT and FALSE. Facts and circumstances of the current outbreak are totally different.

"And yet, it WASN'T stupidity of Odumbo's that killed OVER TWELVE THOUSAND Americans.."

EXACTLY TRUE. Glad you AGREE.

"Because yer Messiah Trump had a -R after his name and you couldn't speak against the -R Messiah, could you...

Michale?

"And yet, you call President Trump incompetent because some 50-odd Americans have died..

But Odumbo is NOT incompetent even though over 12 THOUSAND Americans died..

Care to show your math on that???"

YES. Here it is AGAIN for you:

According to the CDC projected that 2.4 million to 21 million people in the US could end up in the hospital, overwhelming emergency wards and ICUs. The number of deaths in some models ranged from 200,000 to 1.7 million. The fatality rate of the virus is estimated as high as 3.5% by the World Health Organization.

"So, in a shortage of beds and treatment...

Let's give the advantage to criminals who have no right to be in this country over Americans who are citizens."

NOT an ADVANTAGE, and NOT what I said.

"And the logical conclusion to YOUR position is that illegal immigrant criminals are pampered while Americans die..."

So where is your compassion for your fellow Human??? Lying in a cot being treated for life threatening pneumonia is being pampered????

"Here's the best solution..

Instead of giving them free healthcare..

DEPORT THEM.."

NOT REALISTIC or even PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE to deport them ALL. So it still begs the question, what the HELL do you do with those SICK who REMAIN behind???

"And it's 1000% guaranteed to be effective.."

NOT FACTUALLY ACCURATE

Actually, according to Victoria, you can..

So, have at it... :D

And why the burden in court is to prove guilt, not to prove innocence.

Except when it comes to President Trump..

Ya'all expect him to prove his innocence..

Or are you conceding that President Trump is completely innocent of all accusations against him?? :D

Here is REALITY if Coronavirus was left to spread UNCHECKED:

And if it does, the VAST MAJORITY of Americans ***WILL SURVIVE***...

It's less deadly then the simple flu fer christ's sake..

And ya'all are treating it as the end of the world..

ALL because you want to beat President Trump over the head with it..

Over TWELVE THOUSAND Americans died under Odumbo..

Did YOU say a thing about it then?? NO you did not..

Don'tcha think it's kinda hypocritical that you hysterically attack President Trump because some 50-odd Americans died..

And you were COMPLETELY silent when over TWELVE THOUSAND Americans died...

YES, they will MARVEL at our STUPIDITY of allowing ourselves to be killed off by a PREVENTABLE disease through fear, ignorance and willful and deliberate refusal to take sensible precautions.

And yet, it WASN'T stupidity of Odumbo's that killed OVER TWELVE THOUSAND Americans..

Funny how that is, eh? :D

"That does seem to be the rule doesn't it? Analyze the problem, choose whatever strategy makes least sense and then do it."

That was the Odumbo strategy..

And you said nothing at the time..

Because yer Messiah had a -D after his name and you couldn't speak against the -D Messiah, could you...

"If there are aliens out there, they are laughing at the foolishness of humans..."

YES, they will MARVEL at our STUPIDITY of allowing ourselves to be killed off by a PREVENTABLE disease through fear, ignorance and willful and deliberate refusal to take sensible precautions.

"That does seem to be the rule doesn't it? Analyze the problem, choose whatever strategy makes least sense and then do it."

On the misguided response to covid-19.

Again.. How can ANYONE have faith in ya'all's credibility in the face of ya'all's outright HYSTERICAL claims that are totally lacking in ANY scientific facts whatsoever..

I have a .000012% chance of dying from coronavirus..

OOOOooooo Scary... :eyeroll:"

How many FALSE comparisons does it take???

Here is REALITY if Coronavirus was left to spread UNCHECKED:

The worst-case figures reflect what would happen if no action is taken to slow the virus, which spreads from person to person. If this transmission is unchecked, each person with the virus could infect about two to three others, causing the contagion to grow.

According to the CDC projected that 2.4 million to 21 million people in the US could end up in the hospital, overwhelming emergency wards and ICUs. The number of deaths in some models ranged from 200,000 to 1.7 million. The fatality rate of the virus is estimated as high as 3.5% by the World Health Organization.

200,000 to 1.7 million deaths is a WHOLE LOT more than that for the Flu or car accidents per year, wouldn't you say Michale???

So please stop with your trying to downplay things with your bullshit. It's one thing to preach "don't panic", and another thing to encourage "engagement in risky behavior" because you refuse to believe what the experts are telling you!!!

"Prove that Odumbo WASN'T incompetent.."

You CAN'T PROVE a NEGATIVE.

How about you PROVE that the Virgin Mary didn't intervene during the Cuban Missile Crisis to help the FIRST and ONLY Catholic President avert a Nuclear War and thereby created a new TIMELINE that we are all now living in???

It is FAR easier to prove that something DID happen or ISN'T TRUE, rather than prove the opposite that something unforeseen or unexpected DIDN'T happen.

That's why rumors and lies spread faster than truth.

Why people believe and buy into falsehoods and opinion.

And why the burden in court is to prove guilt, not to prove innocence.

And yet, you call President Trump incompetent because some 50-odd Americans have died..

But Odumbo is NOT incompetent even though over 12 THOUSAND Americans died..

Care to show your math on that???

Some 50-odd Americans dead...

PRESIDENT TRUMP IS INCOMPETENT!!!

TWELVE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY NINE Americans are dead..

Odumbo is the epitome of competence..

Sheeyaa right.. :eyeroll:

Face it.. Yer only bitching at PRESIDENT Trump because you don't like him..

Odumbo has a -D after his name so he gets a pass for anything and everything..

YES

So, in a shortage of beds and treatment...

Let's give the advantage to criminals who have no right to be in this country over Americans who are citizens.

THAT is what you are advocating...
Because THAT is the LOGICAL CONCLUSION to YOUR POSITION.

And the logical conclusion to YOUR position is that illegal immigrant criminals are pampered while Americans die...

Here's the best solution..

Instead of giving them free healthcare..

DEPORT THEM..

That would prevent them from spreading the disease to non-sick Americans.

And it's 1000% guaranteed to be effective..

Unlike your solution which simply means more Americans will die..

Is THAT what you really want to see??

As an aside.. Kudos on yer capitalization.. :D Yer learning, young padawan...

OK, first off.. Eeewwwwwwww

Second off, our resident PIE expert, JL might have an issue with pie being used in such a manner..

And thirdly, what if it's chocolate pudding pie??

"Did we have any chocolate pudding in that fridge!!??"
-TOMMY BOY

And the point of the episode was to criticize and condemn complacency to the horrors of war, to death principally, when it is out of sight, out of mind. A comment on Vietnam at the time, and and being immune to the reality of what you are doing when you bomb populations from high above without being able to see the consequences of your actions.

Excellent episode synopsis and analysis, JM....

My hat is off to you...

"Okay, Star Trek comparisons.

What was that episode where the two planets fought wars by computer and the casualties showed up voluntarily to be killed?"

That would be the original series episode "A Taste of Armageddon." Data was not in it because The Next Generation, which Data would appear in, was 20 years later.

And the point of the episode was to criticize and condemn complacency to the horrors of war, to death principally, when it is out of sight, out of mind. A comment on Vietnam at the time, and and being immune to the reality of what you are doing when you bomb populations from high above without being able to see the consequences of your actions.

"We wouldn't have to make such a huge run on toilet paper if we would just learn how to use the 3 sea shells..."

We wouldn't have such a shortage of tissue if more men just used PIE instead. :-)

"Do Democrats STILL believe that illegal immigrant criminals should be given free and full healthcare???"

YES

Or do you want NON-TREATED SICK people spreading disease to the rest of us????

Because THAT is the LOGICAL CONCLUSION to YOUR POSITION.

"Com'on JM.. Point me to your comments about the 12,000+ Americans who died under Odumbo and his Swine Flu incompetence.."

This is Totally BULLSHIT. H1N1 and Swine Flu were both caused by the same virus which we have a VACCINE for. We do not have a vaccine for Coronavirus yet. There was NO incompetence by Obama, no matter how much you want to keep repeating that lie, does not make it so. We would NOT have 30,00 deaths a year from Flu, IF everyone who should be vaccinated, GOT vaccinated. Until we make vaccination MANDATORY, that's on individuals, NOT Obama.

"40 Americans have died with Trump as President and you are HYSTERICAL, attacking President Trump at every turn..."

According to Dr. Fauci of the CDC

1) Coronavirus is MORE contagious than the Flu

2) Coronavirus is 10 TIMES more deadly than the FLU

Michale you are just PLAIN WRONG. Those are the FACTS.

"Show me where you said ***ANYTHING*** about 12,269 Americans dying in 2009 because of Odumbo's incompetence..."

AGAIN, where's YER PROOF??? You and I both know there ISN'T ANY.

They know they are going to lose and lose big...

3 Tallest Biden Tales On Foreign Policy

The former vice president has made a habit of distorting his national security record and telling stories that just aren't true.
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/three-of-bidens-all-time-tall-tales-on-foreign-policy/

Oh.. Except when the liar has a -D after his name.. :eyeroll:

Once again.. THE FACTS...

Get it while they're hot, people.. :D

And get used to it..

You are going to have to hear (and hear FROM) President Trump until at least 20 Jan 2025.. :D

That’s betting the whole house on one thin straw. It’s what happens when you settle for Joe Biden.

It's as I said.. Democrats have NO PATH to victory.. Either with Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders..

It's really THAT simple.. :D

Trump’s sexism and racism? Young people, Google “Anita Hill” now. You’ll be hearing a lot about her come the fall.

Of course, since ya'all have condemned President Trump for avoiding the Vietnam draft, you will condemn Biden for the same, right??

No??? Yea.. That's what a hypocrite is.. :eyeroll:

Biden has lied thru his entire career... You condemn him for that?? Of course not... He has a -D after his name so he gets a pass..

Playing the game to get rich?? Ya'all have attacked President Trump incessantly for that... I am sure ya'all will give Biden the same treatment, eh?? Of course not.. There is that pesky -D after Biden's name so all the cheating and lying is perfectly acceptable to ya'all..

Biden used tax loopholes that Obama wanted to close but couldn't...

And on and on and on...

Ya'all have pretty much abdicated on ever President Trump argument with Joe Biden.. :D

Once again, it's hilarious..

Even when I lose.. I win.. :D

Biden candidacy also means sweeping three years of Democratic messaging under the bed. The list of once-familiar subjects Joe won’t be able to talk about is a long one. Russiagate imploded on its own. Impeachment centered on Hunter Biden and ain’t nobody on the Democratic side gonna bring that up.

Democrats ENTIRE MESSAGE from 2016 to present has been stricken from the record.. :D

All their talk of diversity??? Gotta hide that now..

Russia Collusion delusion?? Who wants to open old wounds??

The Faux Impeachment Coup?? For god's sake, let's not drag Hunter out into the open again.. He'll be tanked on meth with his dick in some other new bimbo..

Yea.. Ya Dumbocrats sure have a winner here.. :D

The Democrats’ entire premise is false. They misunderstood Trump’s election as a fluke if not an outright scam. This was sustained by a relatively small group of disconnected people who, through cancel culture, peer pressure, and the need to fill a 24/7 media vacuum, convinced each other they were right.
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/joe-biden-the-democrats-exhausted-surrender/

I mean, seriously people..

Where is all the diversity ya'all have been PROMISING and LIVING BY and PREACHING ABOUT for the last 3+ years???

I mean, ya'all go on and on and on about diversity and intersectionally and when the rubber meets the road???

You choose an old white guy millionaire as your champion..

But hay.. Thanx for negating and exposing ya'all's diversity argument as the utter bullshit that it is... :D

Even when I lose... I win!! ;D

Isn't Weigantia great!!!??? :D

But thanks for conceding that you cannot defend Trump’s stupidity.

There is no need to defend that which does not exist.

Ask yourself one question, Russ.

If President Trump is so "stupid"....

Why do ya'all Trump/America haters KEEP LOSING TO HIM!!????

BBBBBWBWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I mean, look it it..

Trump is so stupid, yet he has beaten ya'all Trump/America haters AT EVERY JUNCTURE...

Ya'all lost the election.. Trump destroyed yer chosen one..

Ya'all lost with yer Russia Collusion delusion.. President Trump was completely and utterly exonerated..

Ya'all Trump/America haters tried a faux impeachment coup.. President Trump totally decimated that coup and pushed ya'all Trump/America haters to new depths of depression.. :D

I won't even bother to mention how many times President Trump has beat ya'all Trump/America hates in court.. DOZENS... HUNDREDS of times, President Trump has handed ya'all yer asses in court.. :D

So.... IF President Trump is "stupid" as you claim..

That makes ya'all Trump/America haters A HUNDRED TIMES stupider...

Because President Trump **ALWAYS** sends ya'all home crying with yer dicks in yer hands.. :D

So, thank you for conceding that you are one hundred times more stupid than President Trump.. :D

Hope you are well!

We are. We kicked Ebola's ass so... more prepared and been through it before.

We are staying healthy...

Great to hear... and you are required to keep reporting in from ground zero.

Stay well!

We will... y'all too. Let me know if you need anything. I'll figure out a way to get it to you. Seriously.

XOXOXO

I know, right!

As of the time I left the plane with you, we had 240 cases. Well, that's at least what was on a very fine network known as Fox News. You love it. But that's what I happened to be watching.
~ Donald Trump at the CDC

Just in case you were wondering why Trump's information is almost always incorrect and also demonstrably lower than the data from the professionals at the CDC wherein he was located.

And was that a trip to the CDC or a campaign rally? You just know those doctors were trying not to burst out laughing while Dotard Donald was regaling them with his oft repeated tales about the size of his "cranium." I mean, every medical professional knows it was The Donald who recognized the wisdom in:

* Firing Rod Blagojevich off his reality TV show. "Your Harry Potter facts were not accurate. Who did the research?" and also

* Pardoning Rod Blagojevich for his cannot-count-them-on-two-hands multiple criminal convictions during his interrupted attempt to sell Barack Obama's senate seat and multiple shake downs related thereto.

Hard to believe that young "Einstein" Trump was sent to a reform-type military school for disciplining; I mean, who was the fool who didn't enroll that "genius" into medical school? You're fired!

Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.
~ Donald Trump

And just in case Americans from coast to coast weren't already "clued in" to what was obviously foremost on the "really big brain" of the Presidunce <--- props , Trump wore one of those sKAG campaign hats to the CDC. How 'bout that caronavirus; can he get a "lock her up"?

Anybody that needs a test gets a test…. the tests are all perfect like the letter was perfect. The transcription was perfect. Right? This was not as perfect as that but pretty good.
~ Donald Trump

That test was as perfect as that "not a letter" and "not a transcript" that Trump keeps referring to as a "transcription"... you know the one... the one that helped get him impeached in perpetuity.

Somewhere in this country, someone will be given a test kit with “Ivanka” scribbled on the top with a sharpie marker and a small hole (your pinkie might fit in it) drilled into the side of it.

Because "the tests are all perfect"... BEAUTIFUL... like the American flag he bangs on a regular basis; maybe he has a natural ability, and you know he's automatically attracted to beautiful... it's like a magnet... don't even wait. Can he get a Tic Tac?

Hey, Russ, can you just imagine what the right-wing useful idiots would have said if Barack Obama had ever molested the American flag even one time? Or how about if Obama took a trip to the CDC wearing a campaign hat and prattling on and on about the greatness of a left-wing television network and asking about the ratings for his town hall on there "last night"?

Can't speak for everybody, but I think the country would be much better served if Trump would just shut up and allow America's preeminent public health officials to do their jobs rather than their current regular exercises in appearing at press conferences alongside him and debasing themselves in repeated attempts to fill that empty hole in Trump's ego that's obviously in perpetual need of feeding.

Trust me, I am sick of reading the putrid bullshit spewing from an old, overweight, racist, pathologically lying, micro-phallused, narcissistic sociopath with a fragile ego and signs of dementia affecting his already limited intellect...

We already had Trump for that; we definitely do not need you!

But thanks for conceding that you cannot defend Trump’s stupidity.

Well said! The idiot cannot defend his master’s mishandling of this outbreak, so he has to try to get everyone focused on an argument that has nothing to do with our current situation!

Hope you are well! We are staying healthy... Devon’s department will only respond to “in progress” calls and are citing and releasing as many violators as the law allows. Washington State is typically well prepared for epidemics; but that relies on being promptly notified by the CDC of when there are outbreaks.

Stay well!

R

There.. Now everyone knows your comments til Nov when President Trump is re-elected in a landslide..

You don't even have to bother to show up any more :D

“I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it,” the president went on. He started talking about his tour of the CDC he’d taken before his talk to the press. “Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”

The man is clueless when it comes to sarcasm, apparently! The CDC doctors were mocking him, right to his face, and he thought they were actually impressed by him!

This was another odd statement from the Presidunce:

“But I think, importantly, anybody, right now and yesterday, that needs a test gets a test. They’re there, they have the tests, and the tests are beautiful. Anybody that needs a test gets a test,” Trump said.

Yes, he was lying — once again— that anyone who wanted a test could receive one; but I was confused more by his attraction to the test kits... which he described as BEAUTIFUL!?!?

The take away from this is that Trump obviously wants to f*ck these kits!

Somewhere in this country, someone will be given a test kit with “Ivanka” scribbled on the top with a sharpie marker and a small hole (your pinkie might fit in it) drilled into the side of it. I suggest requesting a different test kit!

NOW wants to deploy the US military...

Yes... You heard that right.. A Democrat in a leadership position wants to deploy the US Military...

Tell me, people.. At what point... At what crossed line... does the RATIONAL side of yer brain says, "Now, wait a minute.. This is getting out of hand.."

At what point does your hate and bigotry give way to your rational side??

Do ya'all even HAVE a rational side left???

An example: there were 34,200 deaths in the United States during the 2018–19 influenza season, estimates the cdc. We did not shut down public events and institutions to try to slow the spread of the flu. Yet we have already destroyed $5 trillion in stock market wealth over the last few weeks in the growing coronavirus panic, reports The New York Times, wiping out retirement savings for many.

If there are aliens out there, they are laughing at the foolishness of humans...

By comparison, there were 38,800 traffic fatalities in the United States in 2019, the National Safety Council estimates. That represents an average of over one hundred traffic deaths every day; if the press catalogued these in as much painstaking detail as they have deaths from coronavirus, highways nationwide would be as empty as New York subways are now. Even assuming that coronavirus deaths in the United States increase by a factor of one thousand over the year, the resulting deaths would only outnumber annual traffic deaths by 2,200. Shutting down highways would have a much more positive effect on the U.S. mortality rate than shutting down the U.S. economy to try to prevent the spread of the virus.
https://newcriterion.com/blogs/dispatch/compared-to-what

Again.. How can ANYONE have faith in ya'all's credibility in the face of ya'all's outright HYSTERICAL claims that are totally lacking in ANY scientific facts whatsoever..

I have a .000012% chance of dying from coronavirus..

OOOOooooo Scary... :eyeroll:

I hadn't thought it possible, but ya'all have reached new lows in ya'all Trump/America hate and bigotry...

It's AMAZING how much Odumbo's Swine Flu Pandemic sounds EXACTLY like the beginnings of our current pandemic..

Nearly IDENTICAL..

And yet, not a single solitary ONE OF YOU can point to a comment you made back then on the seriousness of Swine Flu..

I mean, look at the facts..

We have some 40-odd dead Americans...

Odumbo's Swine Flu had ***OVER 12,000 DEAD AMEIRCANS***

You people are bat-shit hysterical over this lame convid stuff that has killed some 40-add Americans.

NONE of ya'all said ONE SINGLE WORD about Odumbo's Pandemic that killed over 12,000 Americans.

This begs the question..

How can **ANYONE** take ya'all seriously??

What makes ya'all think ya'all have a SHRED of credibility when ya'all display such BLATANT and OBVIOUS hypocrisy???

Think about it..

40-odd Americans dead and ya'all are bat-shit hysterical...

Over 12,000 Americans dead and ya'all didn't say a SINGLE word..

How does that equal credibility???

"Anyone?? Anyone?? Beuhler??"

Some are motivated by desperation to push Biden to the Oval Office and will sacrifice the truth, their integrity and their dignity to do it; others are power-flatterers who now see Biden as the new King of their royal court on which their wealth and access depends and so are re-writing their own history to delete what they said about him. Regardless of motive, it’s clear where these valid concerns about Biden’s cognitive decline originated: from within Biden’s own partisan establishment circles. The video and textual evidence is undeniable. When you hear them spin this lie, just confront them with this evidence. Most importantly, do everything possible to make sure voters see it before they pass the point of no return. Voting in democracy is valuable only when it is informed, not the by-product of elite deceit and propaganda.

Again... The facts are clear..

Democrats have NO PATH to victory...

It was the Democrat Party who claimed Joe was "touched" and in cognitive decline...

Now they are trying to rewrite recent history.

And the Democrat Party will fail.. :D Like it ALWAYS fails.. :D

The facts are clear..Ragnorak is upon the Democrat Party.. And it was they who pulled Surtur's crown and dumped it in The Eternal Flame

The FACTS don't lie people..

Joe Biden has NO HOPE of winning the Presidency..

There is simply NO PATH to victory for the Democrat Party...

Everyone here who has more than 2 brain cells to rub together has already conceded this as fact..

Just like it was the Clinton camp who first brought us the birther nonsense, it was the Dumbocrat Establishment who birthed the Dementia Joe meme...

DH commented above how when it comes to the Democrat Party there is so much art that imitates life...

No what is this more apparent than the factual comparisons between Orwell's 1984 and the Democrat Party...

That is a grave matter not just because the establishment wing of the Democratic Party wants to put him in charge of the world’s most dangerous nuclear arsenal, a large chunk of the planet’s health, and the welfare of hundreds of millions of people, but also because it directly pertains to whether he can sustain the rigors and spotlight of a General Election against the incumbent President. And multiple incidents over the past couple weeks — from Biden’s forgetting the words of the most iconic and memorized passage of the Declaration of Independence to confusing his wife for his sister to spouting sentences that make no sense — have only intensified those worries.

Democrats wanting to nominate Joe Biden would be like Republicans wanting to nominate Saint Ronald Reagan, 10 years after he left office..

Once again, we see how President Trump has engineered the Democrats in their default LOSE-LOSE situation.. :D

And now they are doing the exact same thing when it comes to plainly valid questions concerning Joe Biden’s cognitive fitness: expressing revulsion and scorn at the mere mention of these questions and declaring the topic off-limits to all decent people even though establishment Democrats were the ones who first spread insinuations and even explicit accusations about Biden’s cognitive decline when they thought doing so could help them defeat him and/or because it genuinely concerned them regarding his ability to defeat Trump.

The Dim establishment has damaged Biden beyond all hope.. Oh sure.. With the Establishment's push, he can (and likely will) easily push Bernie aside.. That will result in tens of thousands of pissed off Bernie bros, but the Dims think that won't matter..

President Trump has a WHOLE plethora of campaign ads written by the Dim Establishment on the damaged goods that is Joe Biden...

The Dim Establishment is the instrument of Joe Biden's doomed General Election campaign..

How deliciously ironic is that. :D

But that mandated Party denunciation often obscures the undeniable fact that — while Republicans seized on and drove them — all of those attacks also emanated from within the Party, particularly from the 2008 Hillary Clinton presidential campaign, which employed them to try to sink Obama’s rival presidential candidacy. In February, 2008, Clinton campaign officials widely circulated a photo of Obama meeting with tribal elders while dressed in Somali garb on a trip to rural Kenya, an act which Obama’s campaign chief David Plouffe angrily denounced as “the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering we’ve seen from either party in this election.”

Love 'im or hate 'im...

Glenn Greenwald doesn't pull any punches and has absolutely NO REGARD for partisan bullshit..

He is like CW used to be back in the heady and wonderful days before the onset of HHPTDS...

Facts to support???

None???

Shocking... :eyeroll:

Hmm?

LL&P

And yet, the Left Wingers insist on making a Trump/Hitler comparison that has NO BASIS in fact or reality..

It's only borne of hate and bigotry...

Ya'all accused the GOP of being racist when they allegedly attacked Odumbo in such a manner..

Biden for President!

Sorry, Liz..

But that just ain't gonna happen..

I would like to wish everyone here well as we muddle through the next few months of this pandemic.

As long as we all do our part and take care of those around us, I am sure that we, as a planet, will get out on the other side in good shape. And, hopefully, great learning will endure and progress will be made in the aftermath as to how we all go about improving the overall response to things like this. We should, in fact, be expert by now. But, alas ...

I find the tedious and unenlightening - when not fully despicable - nature of the preponderance of the comments here to be inordinately untenable. They have surely devolved to a point where I want no part of it ...

In essence you claim that President Trump share's 30 points of similarity with Hitler and that reflects badly on President Trump's character...You further claim that, since [Obama] only shares 20 points of similarity with Hitler, [Obama] is as pure as the driven snow and he simply cannot be compared to Hitler whatsoever in any way, shape or form...Such an opinion is ludicrous on it's face and it is patently obvious that the opinion is borne of partisan animosity...

Absolutely, positively, unequivocally unfit for this blog.

I am ever hopeful, though, that this place below Chris's columns can and will change - if for no other reason that to ensure the comments sections of this excellent blog reflect the high quality of the masterfully-written headlining columns.

And, to Chris … I'll be here whenever you post a new column to enjoy the always enlightening and mostly provocative nature of your thoughtful pieces.

So, take care all!

Biden for President!

The FACTS are clear...

Because, logically, if you care about dead Americans you would express some concern or sympathy when over 12,000 Americans died due to Odumbo's incompetence..

Or are you saying that Odumo was competent when he allowed over 12,000 Americans to die???

Yep, it is "spectacularly obvious" who doesn't care about dead Americans..

Ya'all...

If ya did, you would have said something when all those tens of thousands of Americans were dying under Odumbo..

NONE of ya'all said a peep..

So, obviously ya'all don't care about them at all..

The FACTS are clear...

Since we're not talking about the flu, I wonder why you think this is relevant.

Since it's you who keeps bringing up the H1N1 pandemic of 2009 as a metric to deflect from current events, allow me to explain how I nor anyone else on this forum can help you if you are so damn dumb that you don't know that the H1N1 pandemic you keep prattling on about was an outbreak of influenza A... which I guess I had better point out to you is "the flu." I don't wonder why, but please let us all know "why you think this is relevant." [emphasis added]

I could just as easily point out that your Messiah, Odumbo has killed a hundred x more innocent people in cruise missile strikes than President Donald Trump..

You needn't explain to anyone on the forum how you "easily point out" things in order to endlessly deflect from relevant current political topics, least of all me.

You can prattle on with all your childish insults but facts are facts..

12,269 Americans died due to Odumbo's incompetence in the Swine Flu pandemic...

Since we're not talking about the flu, I wonder why you think this is relevant. ~ Michale

Not a PEEP out of any of ya'all..

More lies and deflection from you about what you can't know won't help in your useful idiot crusade to deflect from what we do know about President Pathological Lying Con Artist Ordered The Numbers Be Kept Low to Protect His Own Ass Donald Trump.

Therefore, sugar.. It's obvious ya'all don't care about Americans dying.. Unless ya'all can use it to beat President Trump over the head with..

What you don't know would fill volumes, and what you claim to know would fill quadruple that.

These are the facts that NO ONE has refuted..

No one on this forum need refute your lying repetitive exercises in deflection. No one could prove what they've said outside this forum anymore than you could prove they didn't, and you're dumber than a rock if you believe it proves anything since it's quite obvious that no one here posts to please the right-wing dipshit crowd.

The fact is, you don't know shit, and when anyone tries to post anything factual that doesn't fit your right-wing head-up-your-ass worldview, you whine like a toddler and let loose with your standard lame-ass cut-and-paste circular deflection routine. You know the one... that standard argument of ideology that simply indicates you have nothing in the tank to defend Your Orange Worship because he's a pathological lying sack of shit who's more concerned with keeping the numbers low for his reelection than doing what is necessary to protect the citizens of this country. Full stop.

Trump fiddle-farted around, lied repeatedly, ordered his administration that the numbers be kept low in order to help his reelection and denied the facts on the ground while Rush Limbaugh was conveniently informing the rubes that the coronavirus was the "common cold." Meanwhile, I personally instructed everyone I know what was coming so they could prepare accordingly -- even to the point of posting a "read between the lines" warning on this very forum -- while you and your right-wing ilk and the Dipshit Donald administration were busily spinning the facts in an attempt to downplay in order to protect President Pathological Lying Sociopath Worried About Reelection... and here we are now in a "national emergency"... "two very big words," according to Trump.

So contrary to your "ya'all don't care" utter asinine bullshit deflective spew, it's spectacularly obvious who it is that doesn't.

The grumbling from Sanders die-hards is no idle threat. A whopping 12% of them voted for Trump in 2016, according to an analysis by Cooperative Congressional Election Study. That added up to roughly 216,000 voters in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, exit polls showed. Trump’s combined margin of victory in those states was 77,744.

Who could have POSSIBLY predicted this would happen!??

Oh wait.. :D

I hope you people enjoy saying President Donald Trump for the next 4+ years.. :D

And hay.. if this convid thing is as serious as ya'all say.. We might have to suspend the US elections in 2024 and keep President Trump in power for a 3rd term.. :D

Since he's doing such an awesome job on everything and all.. :D

Since we're not talking about the flu, I wonder why you think this is relevant.

I could just as easily point out that your Messiah, Odumbo has killed a hundred x more innocent people in cruise missile strikes than President Donald Trump..

Prove that Odumbo WASN'T incompetent..

You can prattle on with all your childish insults but facts are facts..

12,269 Americans died due to Odumbo's incompetence in the Swine Flu pandemic...

Not a PEEP out of any of ya'all..

Therefore, sugar.. It's obvious ya'all don't care about Americans dying.. Unless ya'all can use it to beat President Trump over the head with..

These are the facts that NO ONE has refuted..

Honey-lips... :D

And, once again..

Ya'all are going batshit hysterical crazy because 40 Americans have died from covid-19...

No one is going "batshit hysterical," but you have spent several weeks prattling on and on and over and over like an idiot stuck on terminal stupid about nobody saying anything about Obama... as if that somehow exonerates Your Orange Worship and his lie after lie after lie and the shitty way in which the Trump administration has handled this entire issue... the misinformation from the same podium, the utter asinine shit that freely flows from the con's lying piehole as he invents bullshit and then contradicts himself and the medical experts in the regular exercises in verbal whiplash.

Yet, **NONE** of you said ANYTHING when 12,269 Americans died under Odumbo's incompetence with the Swine Flu pandemic of 2009...

Speaking for myself: Lies. Lies. Lies. You, in point of fact, have no idea what anyone said, and it's hysterical to keep acting as though no one has a life outside of this forum. Additionally, you have no idea what you're talking about when you claim "Odumbo's incompetence." Prove there was incompetence. Good luck. I've got bad news that will come as a shock to no one, but Trump is lying about the Obama administration and their handling of H1N1, and obviously the right-wing echo chamber are lying in their efforts to deflect from current events.

Meanwhile, the incompetent con artist fool you're defending had ordered his administration to keep the numbers low so as not to harm his chances at reelection -- and other lies too numerous to list, but CW made a good start at it -- lie after lie after lie while something very different was going in under the surface.

So, the *ONLY* logical conclusion is that ya'all really don't care about pandemics or Americans dying..

Bullshit. I posted what I referred to as a "public service announcement" on this very forum in order to warn (in my own small way) what I knew was on the way so that the very intelligent people on this board -- notable exceptions noted -- who are quite capable of reading between the lines could do so and prepare themselves:

Public Service Announcement

This morning, our government issued warnings that current stocks of necessary medical supplies are predicted to be depleted in 2 days and to prepare to prioritize/delay/cancel medical procedures.

Not a drill.

All my best to each of you. XOXOXO

[Permalink] [Wednesday, February 26th, 2020 at 15:23 UTC]

That was an absolute fact. While I obviously cannot post confidential information, I did what I could to warn those persons capable of reading between the lines. And what did you do? You rushed to insult me regarding something you knew absolutely nothing about with your standard operational cut-and-paste bullshit, but I digress.

While our government was issuing warnings about impending medical supply shortages and ramping up to perform surgical triage and cancellations, the signals from the top of the chain were totally the opposite of what was occurring in government hospitals. Trump is obviously a liar and was downplaying what was going on. This country wasn't logistically prepared and still isn't. Full stop.

Donald Trump: "Anyone who wants a test can get it."

Lie.

The facts at the time: The tests from the CDC were faulty, and less than 500 people had been tested at that point. Testing was practically nonexistent.

ALL ya'all care about is having a nice shiny club to beat President Trump over the head with...

Quite obviously, there are some of us who care about a whole lot more than that, but anytime anyone posts anything that doesn't fit your worldview, you spew your cut-and-paste right-wing talking points about Obama like a useful idiot and hurl your usual insults toward anyone who won't join you in your worship of the reality game show host pathologically lying con artist busy downplaying the facts on the ground.

The facts make this conclusion self-evident...

You wouldn't know a fact if it lived on your face. You're too busy attacking anyone who doesn't genuflect to President Pathological.

Was that the same math that those morons on MSNBC did?? The math where they claimed that Bloomberg could have given every American a million dollars instead of wasting it on his campaign and it would have been the same amount of money??

No, which anyone would know if they'd watched the video versus inventing useless straw man arguments wherein they compare a lawmaker to a newscaster. But if you were looking for partisan fools to compare somebody with, a better choice would have been Rush Limbaugh who recently informed the rubes that the coronavirus was the "common cold."

Yea?? Will they get as high as 12,269?? Because that is how many Americans that Odumbo's incompetence killed during the Swine Flu pandemic..

Like I said, prove it was incompetence.

So far, the CDC has estimated (based on weekly influenza surveillance data) that at least 12,000 people have died from influenza between Oct. 1, 2019 through Feb. 1, 2020, and the number of deaths may be as high as 30,000.

https://www.health.com/condition/cold-flu-sinus/how-many-people-die-of-the-flu-every-year

So according to your own metric you keep prattling on and on about in your flailing attempts to deflect from current events, Trump's incompetence has managed to kill approximately the same number of Americans in only 4 short months as the entire H1N1 outbreak. That pathetic right-wing talking point makes Fat Orange Lying Bastard seem exponentially inferior in comparison to their constant deflection to Obama.

Yes, there are...

What was that episode where the two planets fought wars by computer and the casualties showed up voluntarily to be killed?

A TASTE OF ARMAGEDDON

Memorable quotes.

"Sir, there is a multi-legged creature crawling on your shoulder."
-Spock

"I said I understand. I did not say I approve"
-Spock

That episode should provide many data points that parallel they way citizens supporting the two "warring planets" in our political solar system show up election after election to voluntarily validate the process of them showing up to be slaughtered- even though Data was not in this episode.

Not surprising, since this episode was from the original series...

Hmmmmmm Whether DH is "getting it" or not should be solely between him and whomever he is "getting it" from... Eh???

So, basically, since Odumbo has less data points than Trump, a comparison to Hitler has no relevance.

The fact that the ONLY difference between Trump and Odumbo is Odumbo has a -D after his name has absolutely no bearing whatsoever. :D

Remember... *AT* night.. Not LAST night..

donald seems be making the same mistake as professor gill, and the united states under trump is in a similar position to ekos.

Yes, that's your opinion...

But I don't recall President Trump rounding up Zeons and murdering them..

Do you??

You further claim that, since Odumbo only shares 20 points of similarity with Hitler, Odumbo is as pure as the driven snow and he simply cannot be compared to Hitler whatsoever in any way, shape or form...

not at all. i claim that donald and adolf are tactically similar, which i have already supported with literally thousands of data points. this makes them tactically similar, and has nothing to do with donald's character. his character is a different issue.

barry, by contrast, shares perhaps five or six data points with both donald and adolf, which are statistically insignificant and therefore invalid as a basis for comparison. this has no bearing on the purity or impurity of his character either.

the reason i draw this distinction using professor gill from 'patterns of force' is precisely because you continue to conflate the issues of character and tactics. professor gill believed that he could use the tactical playbook of the nazis and his benign character would protect the ekosians from repeating the horrors of the holocaust. donald seems be making the same mistake as professor gill, and the united states under trump is in a similar position to ekos.

We wouldn't have to make such a huge run on toilet paper if we would just learn how to use the 3 sea shells...

Facts to support??

Any facts at all???

No??

Yea, that's what I figured..

It didn't stop the outbreaks in all of these countries (several of which have also been accused by their citizens of suppressing the true number of cases in a vain hope of avoiding economic impact.)

The Trump travel ban of a certain subset of European citizens from entering the U S will be equally ineffective. And no one trusts the government 'spokespersons' (except perhaps Dr Fauci).

Fun Fact: Italy was the only country in Europe to suspend flights from China.

How many planks of the Democrat Party platform are going to collapse in the wake of all the batshit crazy hysteria???

Will be interesting to see...

Do Democrats STILL believe that illegal immigrant criminals should be given free and full healthcare???

The question has to be asked...

Ya'all are going batshit hysterical crazy because 40 Americans have died from covid-19...

Yet, **NONE** of you said ANYTHING when 12,269 Americans died under Odumbo's incompetence with the Swine Flu pandemic of 2009...

So, the *ONLY* logical conclusion is that ya'all really don't care about pandemics or Americans dying..

Rep. Katie Porter (D-Calif.) did the math.

Was that the same math that those morons on MSNBC did?? The math where they claimed that Bloomberg could have given every American a million dollars instead of wasting it on his campaign and it would have been the same amount of money??

Is THAT the kind of math yer talking about?? :eyeroll:

For the second Tuesday in a row, Bernie Sanders disappointed millions of his supporters by not doing nearly well enough in the primaries. Sanders lost Michigan to Joe Biden, which may be the beginning of the end of his campaign. He seems to realize this, and while he's sticking around at least until the next round of primaries next week (mostly so he gets to debate Joe Biden one-on-one), he knows the end is in sight for his chances of winning the Democratic nomination for president. Which, as we said, disappoints many Democrats out there.

Oh, that brings up a related matter, because the Northern Mariana Islands are voting tomorrow. So we'll just stick in our prediction here, but sadly for Sanders we are going to bet that Joe Biden wins this far-flung primary, too.

WOW... THAT's the best you can do for a disappointing Democrat??

Jeeze, CW.. Yer not even TRYING anymore.. :^D

For the record, there are now over 2,100 coronavirus cases in America, with 48 deaths. But by the time you read this, those numbers will likely be higher.

Yea?? Will they get as high as 12,269?? Because that is how many Americans that Odumbo's incompetence killed during the Swine Flu pandemic..

You remember that?? You remember that you didn't write a single solitary commentary on that...

But a pandemic that has killed 40 odd Americans?? THAT deserves a weeks worth+ of commentaries??

Hmmmmmm Well, the numbers don't add up (yunno, that 'math' thing) so it's obvious not out of concern for Americans..

Hmmmmm What could it be that would cause you to ignore 12,269 Americans dead but have a half dozen+ commentaries when 40-odd Americans die???

Hmmmmmm That's a toughie...

Ahhhhhh The 12,000-odd Americans died under a DEMOCRAT President... The Great Democrat Messiah Barack IF YOU LIKE YOUR DOCTOR YOU CAN KEEP YOUR DOCTOR Odumbo....

The 40-odd Americans died under President Trump...

THAT explains it... :^/

You haven't GIVEN me any facts TO stand on..

Give me a characteristic that is exclusive to President Trump and Hitler that is not shared by ANY other American president..

Until you can do that, we BOTH have nothing but rhetoric...

JL,

by analogy, it's as if i've gone down a list of twenty diagnostic criteria for major depression, donald has met all of them, and your counter-argument is that it's not a valid diagnosis because obama was sad once or had trouble sleeping one night.

Although impressive, that is not a valid or accurate analogy..

I'll just dispense with the analogies and flat out say what you are saying..

In essence you claim that President Trump share's 30 points of similarity with Hitler and that reflects badly on President Trump's character...

You further claim that, since Odumbo only shares 20 points of similarity with Hitler, Odumbo is as pure as the driven snow and he simply cannot be compared to Hitler whatsoever in any way, shape or form...

Such an opinion is ludicrous on it's face and it is patently obvious that the opinion is borne of partisan animosity...

JL

on the other hand, the opinion you've put forth, that a comparison between obama and professor gill is equally valid as one between trump and professor gill, is contradicted by the overwhelming majority of facts on the subject.

If you insist on using Professor Gill as an example, it's patently obvious that you have never seen PATTERNS OF FORCE..

Given the one time we saw Professor Gill speak, there is absolutely NO SIMILARITY between President Trump's speeches and rallies and Professor Gills..

no need, you're correct - it's not a fact, it's my opinion.

I didn't say it was a fact.. I said it was not a factual statement.. Meaning your statement (in this case, your opinion) was not factually supported..

literally thousands of well-documented facts support that opinion, but an opinion it is.

Yep, that's yer claim.. :D Have yet to hear them, but you DO claim that.. That is factual.. :D

I am willing to prove that Odumbo's similarities to Hitler are just as "valid" as you think President Trump's similarities to Hitler are..

But, as I said, you will have to do your part..

has anyone realized yet that covid-19 can be cured with a regular provision of pie? it absolutely could work, and nobody has proven otherwise. since other strategies haven't worked at all, what do we have to lose by trying?

BREAKING NEWS:

Chicken Little has just confirmed that the sky IS indeed falling...

Everyone is advised to take cover immediately and to bring lots of toilet paper with them when they do so...

The Kentucky Democratic Party tweeted right back at him:

Area unemployed man logs on to Twitter."

Just FYI - Bevin (unemployed man who sold pardons) intentionally infected his children with chickenpox by taking them to someone's home where the family's children already had it - a "chickenpox party". Then he bragged about it publicly. I'm sure his offspring will remember him fondly when they get shingles.
