		<description>&lt;B&gt;Sen. Susan Collins said Monday on the Senate floor that she &quot;can not believe that the answer&quot; to the coronavirus crisis from Senate Democrats &quot;is delay, delay, delay. No sense of urgency.&quot;

&quot;Never have I seen Republicans and Democrats fail to come together when confronted with a crisis.&quot;

&quot;Is that what we’ve come to?&quot; Collins said, criticizing Democrats over the delay.

&quot;We don’t have another day. We don’t have another hour. We don’t have another minute to delay acting.&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

It&#039;s funny..

You people and Democrats had hounded and hounded President Trump for his alleged delays...

NOW that President Trump&#039;s leadership is a shining example that even DEMOCRATS have acknoledged, NOW Senate Democrats are the ones dragging their feet and delaying...</description>

		<description>Don Harris

&lt;I&gt;So there may be a few isolated cases of a PAC working to help a small donor only candidate.&lt;/i&gt;

Or there will be PAC’s working on behalf of every one of them.   This is the thing....you cannot prevent them from pumping money into the elections to get your “small donor candidate” elected.

&lt;i&gt;But this will not affect the majority of small donor only candidates. it is by far better than what we have now, though not perfect. Isn&#039;t that what you say about the big money Dems? They are not perfect, but they are better than Republicans?&lt;/I&gt;

Or it is just as likely to affect the majority of small donor only candidates.  

&lt;I&gt;Citizens will have to pay attention and take appropriate action to make sure candidates are not pretending to be small donor only candidates.&lt;/i&gt;

Right, because that’s exactly what all those people who don’t follow politics want to do!  And citizens won’t be able to tell if one of your small donor only candidates is secretly working with the PAC’s they are claiming not to support!   It isn’t the $5400 donation to their campaign that buys a politician; that’s chump change!   

&lt;I&gt;So big money might have an effect on a small amount of races in a national election, but the vast majority of races will be dominated by small donor only candidates when enough citizens only vote for small donor only candidates.&lt;/i&gt;

And when will that be?   8 years?   20 years?   No, Big Money WILL have an affect on all races in a national election because there is nothing to even suggest that “the vast majority of races will be dominated by small donor candidates”.   You just say that they will come out of the woodwork, but you have offered no actual evidence that would support your claims.   You have no plan for getting non-voters on board.  I hate to break it to ya, but CW is not gonna reach people not into politics!  

&lt;i&gt;What assurances do you have that big money candidates will represent ordinary citizens over the big money interests that financed their campaigns?&lt;/i&gt;

The same assurances that you have that small donor only candidates will represent their constituents first and foremost — none!    I judge each person based on their own merits.  You write off anyone who accepts $500 or $1000 in campaign donations as being corrupted by Big Money!</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Some of the prominent lefty blogs are running video loops on the theme of &quot;Dementia Joe&quot;, and making the point of Biden&#039;s vulnerability in interview and/or debate situations. I fear you guys have managed again to select the only politician in the country capable of losing to the orange moron Way to go!!&lt;/I&gt;

Considering that is **EXACTLY** what they did in 2016.....

Ya gotta admire their consistence...  :D</description>

		<description>Reposted for clarity..

&lt;I&gt;Well, my point was that this virus is worldwide in its spread and devastating in its wide-ranging impacts.&lt;/I&gt;

Every pandemic we have been thru since we were kids have been worldwide and devastating in it&#039;s impact..

1958 H2N2 Flu

1968 H3N2

2009 Swine Flu

2013 Ebola

2014 Ebola

The list goes on and on..

The ONLY reason this current pandemic is the &quot;END OF THE WORLD&quot; is because ya&#039;all&#039;s Russia Collusion delusion didn&#039;t succeed in taking out Trump and ya&#039;all&#039;s Faux Impeachment Coup was a MONUMENTAL and EPIC failure in removing Trump...

So, now ya&#039;all have a new shiny....   :eyeroll:</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;This virus is different and, on this one at least, things are not centered around America.&lt;/I&gt;

Neither was it during the Ebola scare..

That was Africa..

Neither was it during the Swine Flu in 2009.. 

THAT was Mexico..

The ONLY difference between those pandemics and this one is one of politics..

&lt;I&gt;I just hope that governments the world over, including mine and yours, learn lessons well and put a plan in place for the next novel virus to come along.&lt;/I&gt;

Unfornately for the Global New World Order adherents, the &quot;lesson&quot; to learn is one of nationality before Global Order...

&lt;I&gt;I guess, ultimately, technology will save us!&lt;/I&gt;

<p>Neither was it during the Ebola scare..</p>

<p>THAT was Mexico..</p>
<p>The ONLY difference between those pandemics and this one is one of politics..</p>

		<description>For example, our prime minister Trudeau just mentioned something about a &#039;Blue Dot&#039; app that actually alerted the government to this novel coronavirus before the WHO issued its first warning.

		<description>I don&#039;t agree with you on that, Michale.

This virus is different and, on this one at least, things are not centered around America.

		<description>DH,

&lt;I&gt;As the resident expert on facts, how would you interpret the facts in comment 134 in regard to CW&#039;s request for me to provide one person that thinks One Demand or the application of One Demand through the Nader campaign is a good idea?&lt;/I&gt;

I think the fact is, you should feel lucky if CW pays you any mind, even if it&#039;s to tell you to shut the FRAK up.. :D</description>

		<description>Funny how it&#039;s all GOP Senators who are quarantining themselves..

You can bet if THEY have it, some Dem senators have it..

But Dems are more concerned about their un-American agenda...

		<description>So....  When I asked why ya&#039;all were silent under Odumbo when his incompetence killed 12,269 Americans, Russ&#039;s FIRST answer was &quot;Because Odumbo didn&#039;t say HIS virus was a hoax!!!&quot;

Which was proven a bullshit answer because JL established as fact that President Trump didn&#039;t say the covid is a hoax either...

NOW, Russ&#039;s SECOND answer is to claim that everyone here was American and America hating douche-bags in 2009 and revel&#039;ed in Odumbo&#039;s incompetence that resulted in over 12K dead Americans..

This answer seems to be confirmed by Liz..

So, that&#039;s where we are right now vis a vis ya&#039;all&#039;s TOTALLY different reactions as to 12,269 dead Americans under Odumbo (ya&#039;all were fine with that) vs ya&#039;all&#039;s reaction to less than 200 dead Americans under President Trump (End Of The World Hysteria)...

Ya&#039;all should realize if yer in a deep deep hole, you need to stop digging..

I&#039;m just sayin&#039;...</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Collins blasts Democrats for blocking coronavirus stimulus plan, says they’re ‘playing with fire’

Senate Democrats late Sunday blocked a GOP-backed $1.3 trillion coronavirus rescue package as five Republicans watched helplessly from self-quarantine, prompting U.S. stock futures to dive and sowing fresh doubt the parties can forge an agreement as the nation descends into economic disaster.&lt;/B&gt;
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/collins-blasts-democrats-for-blocking-coronavirus-stimulus-plan-says-theyre-playing-with-fire

Anyone wanna tell me why Dumbocrats are blocking this much needed Covid Aid Package???

Oh, I know..  Your Dumbocrats want to make sure that more people die of covid...  That way you can blame Trump for MORE deaths than Odumbo had..

Sometimes you and your Dumbocrats DISGUST me...

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Isn’t it obvious??? We feel so guilty for not saying anything during the Swine Flu that we refuse to allow a president to sit back and cause people to die like we did last time!

Why aren’t you cheering for our wokeness on the matter?&lt;/I&gt;

Yea.. Cuz *I* have *ALWAYS* been so cheering about insipid wokeness..  :eyeroll:

&lt;I&gt;Do you hate America so much that you’d rather we stay quiet and let another 12,000 citizens die without anyone speaking out?!?&lt;/I&gt;

Did you hate America so much in 2009 that you would let 12,000 Americans die without saying a word??

Are we done with moronic and insipid questions??

And, if you DID have the same attitude under PRESIDENT Trump that you had under ODUMBO, you could at least you could hold your head up high as a man.. person of integrity... A person who is NOT a hypocrite...

But, of course integrity &amp; honor hold no interest for you...</description>

		<description>SF Bear,

DOOD...  READ WHAT I WROTE!!!!

&lt;I&gt;Michale: You are bragging that there is a 96% recovery rate, that means 4% DO NOT RECOVER! Based on the 331 million US population and an estimated 70% infection rate that means 9 million folks will NOT RECOVER. &lt;/I&gt;

The 70% recovery rate was from ODUMBO&#039;S incompetence in the Swine Flu of 2009..

The 96% recover rate is from President Trump&#039;s leadership in the current pandemic...

Quit trying to conflate the 2.. you look like a moron..

&lt;I&gt;When this is all over even you will wish he had done even a tenth as well as Obama.&lt;/I&gt;

Are you so secure in that total bullshit belief that you are willing to make a wager on that???

I am...

Which sounds crass, but it&#039;s the ONLY way I can get you people to concede when yer wrong...</description>

		<description>JM,

&lt;I&gt;The alternative with Covid-19 Under TRUMP, with a 10x fatality rate by Dr. Fauci, would be 300,000 Under TRUMP. FACT.&lt;/I&gt;

Dood!!  You can&#039;t used the words &quot;would be&quot; and &quot;FACT&quot; in the same sentence..

You are making a prediction.  And as you and your fellow Trump/America haters have made clear, Predictions are NOT FACTS..

&lt;I&gt;According to the CDC, H1N1 / Swine FLU killed 12,500 Americans under Obama in 2009 / 2010.

Under TRUMP, projections are Covid-19 worst case scenario could kill 200,000 to 1.7 MILLION people in 2020 / 2021.&lt;/I&gt;

CDC!???  BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

The Center For GUN Control???  

BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

CDC is a political hack organization.. If they told me that the sky was blue and water was wet I would need independent confirmation.. 



&lt;I&gt;Michale, on THIS issue, you are FULL OF SHIT.

It really is THAT SIMPLE.&lt;/I&gt;

I provide FACTS do back up my claim..

What do you have in the way of facts???

Nothing..


&lt;I&gt;My ONLY conclusion is that YOU are BLINDED by your OWN hate and bigotry for OBAMA.&lt;/I&gt;

Of course that&#039;s your only conclusion..

Because you refuse to look at the FACTS..</description>

&lt;I&gt;When there are small donor candidates that do not have their own PACS the PACS will be campaigning for the big money candidates and the participants will not vote for the big money candidates. They can spend all they want for nothing when enough people will not vote for big money candidates.&lt;/i&gt;

What if the PAC’s campaign for your small donor candidate?  Does that mean they are not truly “small donor” anymore?  See, this is something that you cannot control — who PAC’s choose to support.  The PAC’s can run ads pushing for your candidate and the candidate cannot stop them from doing that.  And this is where you seem to want to skim over where the Big Money truly is located in campaign financing.   

What assurance can you provide that your small donor candidate isn’t in cahoots with the BIg Money behind one of the PAC’s that your candidate claims to not be associated with?  NONE!!!   

&lt;I&gt;I have explained many times how One Demand could work.&lt;/i&gt;

Have you?  Have you really EXPLAINED how One Demand could work, or have you just claimed that it would work without bothering to explain how it would accomplish the lofty goals that you say it could?  You always pose the “is it possible that it could work?” rhetorical question, but you never address the questions: what is the probability that it could work? What needs to happen to increase the likelihood that these things will occur?  (Such as getting people that have no interest in politics to suddenly decide not only to vote, but that they are going to actually spend money on something they claim not to care about!)

&lt;I&gt;Also, your law would limit everyone. One Demand gives people a choice. Peolpe such as Kick could give as much as the law allows to candidates that will take it. And people that want small donor only candidates will not vote for those candidates.&lt;/i&gt;

One Demand gives people a choice?  That choice being to only vote for small donor candidates (regardless of their ties to the Nazi Party or their Pro-Incest platform) OR to write in your own name (which you claim will make a political statement that differs from the statement being made by the crazy people who also vote for themselves in these elections!).  Those are my choices according to you.  I can support someone who I disagree with on every topic except on small donor campaigns, or I can throw my vote away by writing my own name in as One Demand requires and allow Trump to win my state by one vote, thus giving him enough EC delegates to be re-elected!   

But at least we now know that the goal of One Demand is NOT TO GET BIG MONEY OUT OF OUR ELECTIONS!!!!

It’s just there to allow you to complain and look down on others without the hassle of having to try to create any real change!   Great to know!  

As for Ralph...you are right!   It could work!   Now you just need to get him to agree to it!  Focus on Ralph!  He’s going to be the real spokesperson for One Demand to get the movement started!   I’m sure CW will one day regret missing this opportunity that you have offered him for so long, but it’s time to focus on someone not afraid to be the visionary needed to create real change!   That person is definitely RN!   We will miss you!</description>

&quot;And yet, over 96% of those infected recover..

Apparently, it&#039;s not THAT lethal..&quot;

God, talking to you is like talking to a BRICK WALL!

Here are the FACTS:

Why there was no shutdown under OBAMA. AND, why Covid-19 is NOT LIKE THE FLU:

1) The FLU has been common in Humans for may years. - Covid-19 has NEVER appeared in Humans BEFORE. This is the FIRST TIME EVER.

2) There IS a vaccine for the FLU. - There is NO vaccine for Covid-19.

3) Covid-19 is MORE infectious than the FLU. The FLU is infectious for 3 to 4 days. - Covid-19 is infectious for at LEAST 10 days on average. 

4) Recovery from the FLU usually takes ONE week to TEN days. - Recovery from Covid-19 Takes TWO to FOUR weeks on average. 

5) The FLU hospitalizes about 40,000 people per month. - Covid-19 would require about 900,000 people to be hospitalized per month. Total U.S. hospital capacity for CRITICALLY ill patients is ONLY 100,000.

6) Put another way. The FLU puts as many as 810,000 Americans in the hospital over the course of a year. Covid-19 would raise that to anywhere from 2 million to 20 million people over the course of a year in the hospital.

JUST FOR MICHALE:

According to the CDC, H1N1 / Swine FLU killed 12,500 Americans under Obama in 2009 / 2010.

Under TRUMP, projections are Covid-19 worst case scenario could kill 200,000 to 1.7 MILLION people in 2020 / 2021. 

Dr. Fauci again: &quot;Covid-19 is 10x more lethal than the FLU.&quot;</description>

		<description>Michale:  You are bragging that there is a 96% recovery rate, that means 4% DO NOT RECOVER!  Based on  the 331 million US population and an estimated 70% infection rate that means 9 million folks will NOT RECOVER.  That is a very different order of magnitude from the 12,000 under Obama.  It is by calling this &quot;hysteria&quot; and &quot;fear mongering&quot; and thus not putting into place the policies that could have have mitigated this pandemic your Dear Leader has made sure this will be a full blown disaster.  When this is all over even you will wish he had done even a tenth as well as Obama.</description>

Give this FACT, why are ya&#039;all so hysterical now and didn&#039;t say WORD ONE under Odumbo??&lt;/i&gt;

Isn’t it obvious??? We feel so guilty for not saying anything during the Swine Flu that we refuse to allow a president to sit back and cause people to die like we did last time!   

Why aren’t you cheering for our wokeness on the matter?   

Why are you trying to silence us? 

 Do you hate America so much that you’d rather we stay quiet and let another 12,000 citizens die without anyone speaking out?!?</description>

		<description>Don Harris,

Three times I have raised questions concerning One Demands failure to address PAC’s which can accept unlimited amounts of money and do not have to identify where the money comes from and asking how can limiting donations to campaigns to $200 at most is supposed to get Big Money out of politics...and you completely ignore the posts.   It’s as if you are avoiding addressing the questions for some reason?!  

So here’s the post from the previous comments...just in case you did not see it:

Don Harris,
&lt;I&gt;
Doesn&#039;t Biden , Bernie and Nader working together have a better chance of beating Trump and is therefore more practical?&lt;/i&gt;

Yes, and hopefully Bernie and Nader will fully endorse Biden’s campaign. Your idea of Biden suddenly turning his campaign into a “small donation only” crusade would never happen, especially after this coronavirus outbreak ending large gatherings and putting a strain on most people’s pocketbooks.

&lt;i&gt;The 200 dollar law?&lt;b&gt;

Another stupid question that is not designed for discussion but probably because you think it is a gotcha question or just to be combative or annoying.

I have repeatedly said that legislation cannot solve the problem because the big money legislators will not pass any legislation to get the big money out of politics. Decades of proof to back this up or the big money would be gone by now.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

For a question you refer to as stupid and suspect, you sure as fuk don’t seem to want to answer it directly! I find it odd that you seem to be the only person who determines what could work and what definitely won’t work.

The question was not whether you believe Congress WOULD cap campaign donations at $200, it assumes that they not only would, but that they have passed it and if that would rid our elections of BIG Money’s corrupting influence?

I am simply taking the premise of what you are trying to convince CW deserves being reported to the masses as our best way of getting rid of the corrupt influences in politics and asking you if you believe that your idea can fix the problem. It really should not be that hard of a question for you to answer...but you have a habit of avoiding discussing whether One Demand will do what you want us to believe it will do.

You called Citizens United a “red herring”, but it is what allows unlimited amounts of money to be poured into our elections without us knowing where the money is coming from. Your idea takes $5200 of a $5400 reported corporate donation out of the campaign’s bank — leaving it with $200 — but does nothing about the $20 million donation that the corporation pumps into a PAC named “The Institute for Helping People” that will work to get their politician elected.

Face it, you do not want the $200 cap on political donations to become the law because that would mean that there is no longer a “movement”... you are not cool for making a stand that lets you look down on others who don’t follow your wisdom... it’s the law for everyone. If everyone has to do it, that robs you of the glory you think you are deserving of.</description>

		<description>Now, of course, ya will nit-pick the numbers and argue what the definition of &#039;is&#039; is...  

All to deflect one simple fact..

Odumbo&#039;s Swine Flu killed over 12,000 Americans and ***NONE*** of ya&#039;all said a single word..

Due to President Trump&#039;s awesome leadership, LESS than 200 Americans have died and ya&#039;all are hysterical and fear-mongering...

&lt;B&gt;&quot;These are the facts of the case.  And they are undisputed.&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>Bear..

You are not reading what I wrote..

Under President Trump, there is a 96% recovery rate...

Under Odumbo and his Swine Flu Pandemic, there was a less than 70% recovery rate...  

More than 12,000 Americans died under Odumbo...

Where were all your comments about THAT pandemic??

I am betting you never made a SINGLE comment, did you??

This all.. All this bullshit.. All this hysteria and fear-mongering??

It has ONE source and ONE source only..

Ya&#039;all&#039;s Trump/America hatred.

NO OTHER CONCLUSION fits the facts..</description>

		<description>Michale please think about what you are saying, if 96% recover that means that 4% do not.  The general infection rate is estimated at 70%. 70% of the population is 210 million infected. According to your estimate 4%, or 8.4 million Americans will NOT recover.  Not a happy outcome.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s why you will NEVER convince me that your cause is just...

Because ya&#039;all can&#039;t answer one simple question..

The FACTS prove that Odumbo&#039;s pandemic was much MUCH worse than the current Pandemic..

Give this FACT, why are ya&#039;all so hysterical now and didn&#039;t say WORD ONE under Odumbo??

Since you can&#039;t answer that, can&#039;t give a logical and rational reason why, your position is NOTHING but hate and political bigotry...

It&#039;s really THAT simple...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;&quot;It&#039;s about ten times more lethal than the seasonal flu,&quot;&lt;/I&gt;

And yet, over 96% of those infected recover..

Apparently, it&#039;s not THAT lethal..

THAT is what the facts show..

Of course they are going to hype the stats to scare people into obeying..

It&#039;s why they showed those gruesome DUI films in Driver&#039;s Ed...

Of course YOU people believe them because it fuels your hate and bigotry...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;By contrast to the Flu, COVID-19 is currently estimated to kill at least 10 people per thousand infected (1%).&lt;/I&gt;

All you have is THEORIES..

I have FACTS...

And the FACT is over 96% of the people infected recover under President Trump&#039;s leadership..

Compare that the less than 70% recovery rate for those infected due to Odumbo&#039;s incompetence..

Until you come to grips with the FACTS and explain why there was NO shutdown under Odumbo, then all you have is hate and bigotry...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;I don&#039;t see why you would be so upset about the military taking over government.&lt;/I&gt;

Again, you make assumptions regarding what I think..

My point is, why aren&#039;t YA&#039;ALL upset about the military taking over the government..

Because it all feeds yer Trump/America hate..

Ya&#039;all **WANT** the US military to take over the government.. Because that would mean Trump would be out and ya&#039;all would orgasm over that..

&lt;I&gt;With Trump in charge of the military and Trump confirming your infallable predictions by getting re-elected (unless your vote for Biden costs Trump Florida :D) and your belief that Trump does everything so well, you should be happy about a military take-over. :D&lt;/I&gt;

Ignoring the fact that I don&#039;t believe Trump does well on everything, that I have condemned Trump when he did something stoopid, my feelings about a military takeover is not what&#039;s questioned here..

What&#039;s questioned here is YA&#039;ALL&#039;S feelings about a military takeover..</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Tellingly, the more information and access Trump gives the White House press corps, the angrier the members get. The president and his team provide daily updates, announce new efforts and take numerous questions.

While many of the questions try to flesh out details, virtually every day there is also an obvious “Gotcha” effort. Frustrated by Trump’s refusal to surrender to their superior intelligence, his inquisitors, graduates of the Jim Acosta school of journalism, end up berating and arguing with him.

One day there were repeated assertions thinly disguised as questions about why the president continues to call the virus the “Chinese virus.” Doesn’t he realize that’s racist?

His answers were to the point: “That’s where it came from” and “Everybody knows it came from China.”

As some commentators noted, the questions parroted a talking point of the Chinese Communist Party. That makes this a case of Trump Derangement Syndrome with a coronavirus twist.

It’s also a clear case of China trying to meddle in our elections. Once upon a time, the media cared about that.&lt;/B&gt;

Here again, the Trump/America haters go with fake claims of racism..

&quot;Chinese&quot; is a NATIONALITY, ya fraking morons!!!

It is NOT a race...

Gods, why is it that Trump/America haters are so fraking stoopid!!!???</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;And the public, despite the media, gets it that the president is doing his best against an unprecedented and invisible enemy. Polls reflect a belief that, after a slow start, Trump is mobilizing an enormous national response involving both the public and private sectors and is committed to victory.

An ABC News/Ipsos survey released Friday finds 55 percent approve of the president’s leadership, while 43 percent disapprove. Those figures are a reversal from a week earlier, when 43 percent approved and 54 percent disapproved.

Of course, to recognize this shift in the national mood would mean the media would have to give Trump credit, and that is forbidden. Stark polarization is what the media like and want — and refuse to see anything else.&lt;/B&gt;

This is ALL about President Trump hate..  And it will continue to be all about Trump hate until 20 Jan 2025...  

And most likely, far far beyond....</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Instead, after failing to bring down Trump with Russia, Russia, Russia and impeachment, they’re now putting their chips on the narrative that he’s bungling the public health crisis.

To get there, they’ve had to reverse themselves on a key allegation. For three years the same media told us Trump was a fascist and a budding Hitler, but now his refusal to rule with an iron fist is also cause for condemnation.

Suddenly, the man whose “Authoritarian style is remaking America” (Washington Post), and whose “Authoritarian Ambitions” were exposed by impeachment (New York magazine), foolishly refuses to use the powers of the Oval Office. As usual, other countries are doing it right and America is wrong.

When Trump advised people to stop unnecessary travel and avoid bars, restaurants and groups of more than 10, a Times headline moaned that the “Guidelines Fall Short of the Mandates in Other Countries.”

The Gray Lady’s latest complaints involve the Defense Protection Act, which gives the president the authority to commandeer private industry. But he’s a lousy authoritarian because, as the Times put it Friday, “Trump Resists Pressure to Force Companies to Make Coronavirus Supplies.”&lt;/B&gt;

Get that???

NAZI/HITLER President Trump is being slammed for NOT being a NAZI/HITLER

There is simply no pleasing you people..

The Trump/America hate wins out over EVERYTHING...  :^/</description>

		<description>Well, let&#039;s check in with a Democrat...

&lt;B&gt;Shameful media still slamming Donald Trump during coronavirus crisis: Goodwin

The coronavirus epidemic is shaking humanity and turning the world upside down. Quick, somebody alert the media.

The Washington press corps is covering one of the largest, continuing stories in recent history the same way it has covered the Trump administration since Day One.

The formula is simple: Whatever the president does is not just wrong, it’s borderline evil. Details at 11.

In the real world, events are unfolding at a pace and scale impossible to comprehend. But at too many news outlets, the aim is not to inform. It’s to render the harshest possible judgment on the man journalists love to hate.

Already The New York Times has twice called the White House response “calamitous,” including once in a supposedly straight-news article.

This is beyond shameful. When antagonists like Sen. Chuck Schumer finally are working with Trump and when the Democratic governors of New York and California swap praise with the president over their partnerships, the media ought to take a hint that this time is different and there is no place for biased journalism-as-usual.&lt;/B&gt;
https://nypost.com/2020/03/21/shameful-media-still-slamming-donald-trump-during-coronavirus-crisis-goodwin/

Not even the end of the world will quell the Trump/America hate and allow people to come together as AMERICANS....

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Sorry, Liz, it had to be said. I would simply scroll thru Michale&#039;s comments but the guy is smart enough to make a good point from time to time. What a waste of talent. I am hungry to find a Conservative to engage with, too bad Michale is not game.&lt;/I&gt;

I make good points most ALL the time..

The problem is, like everyone else here, you only call the points you agree with, &quot;good points&quot;... :D

Now, me on the other hand.. I have often commented about people&#039;s good points.. Even if I didn&#039;t necessarily agree with them...  

My &quot;agree to disagree&quot; mantra is famous throughout the land... :D</description>

		<description>Liz,

&lt;I&gt;At the beginning of this crisis, testing was critical in the fight to slow and stop the spread.&lt;/I&gt;

That is not factually accurate..

And explain to me one point..

When the best course of action is to keep people home and limit contact..

How is forcing millions of people to a central location going to help??

That&#039;s the incongruity of the claims of the Left.. What they  have been advocating since the beginning of this has been against all common sense and good leadership principles..</description>

&lt;I&gt;got that? rupaul owns land in wyoming and leases it to oil companies for fracking. AOC is going on his show, which is essentially an endorsement of someone who does precisely what she&#039;s written bills to outlaw.&lt;/I&gt;

I am still in mourning for my core i7 and don&#039;t have the desire to go back over the last commentary...

		<description>MC,

&lt;I&gt;Really, Michale,. Obama did worse than Trump is your best defense of Cheetogod&#039;s failings is all you give us Weigentains? &lt;/I&gt;

And you STILL miss the point... I am not defending President Trump&#039;s actions..

There is no need..

A&gt; His actions have been awesome to date, as evidenced by the low body count...

and

B&gt; Democrats Cuomo and Omar, previous virulent Trump Haters are defending President Trump&#039;s actions..  

No.. MY point is ya&#039;all&#039;s hypocrisy and virulent Trump hate and how ya&#039;all try to mask it with faux concern for dead Americans..

The facts PROVE this beyond any doubt.

Now, if you want to debate THAT point, feel free..  But my guess is you go thru all these distractions because you CAN&#039;T debate the facts..  :D</description>

		<description>FPC
@
michale, this one&#039;s for you:

&lt;b&gt;RuPaul has yet to comment publicly on fans’ concerns that the drag star is fracking. RuPaul’s Drag Race is currently airing its 12th season. One of the guest judges on the show will be Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who coincidentally introduced a bill in the House that bans all fracking by 2025.&lt;/b&gt;

got that? rupaul owns land in wyoming and leases it to oil companies for fracking. AOC is going on his show, which is essentially an endorsement of someone who does precisely what she&#039;s written bills to outlaw.

		<description>&lt;I&gt;The administration cannot now even predict the date when enough testing will be available to achieve this rather fundamental goal. Until then, those numbers should be seen as a mere fraction of the reality. And that number just climbed by 5,000 people in a single day, as more and more testing is being performed.&lt;/I&gt;

At the beginning of this crisis, testing was critical in the fight to slow and stop the spread.

But, now, while testing the sick is still important, the rest of us need to act as though we have the virus and forget about our desire to be tested.

From what I understand about where the US and Canada are in our epidemics, the next little while is critical for all of us as individuals in meeting the Stay at Home and other social distancing behaviors. If we don&#039;t do all of our parts, then our hospitals will be overrun.

Hopefully, governments will focus on making sure all healthcare workers have what they need in terms of personal protective gear while getting money into the hands of people in order to live and buy the essentials.

Not much else matters these days.</description>

No, it didn&#039;t have to be said. 

Most of what has been written here - today and for a very long time - has not needed to be said.

Try to be part of the solution and make the comments sections here enlightened as opposed to asinine.</description>

You care about dead Americans, that&#039;s why you are condemning President Trump, right??</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Dude, no one gives a f*ck about Swine Flu or anything else before Trump.&lt;/I&gt;

And THAT is my point...

If you don&#039;t care that Obama&#039;s incompetence killed over 12,000 Americans and you bitch at President Trump because around 200 Americans have died...

Do you see the incongruity??

It *PROVES* that the issue is NOT dead Americans..

The issue is SOLELY that you hate President Trump...

&lt;I&gt;You have Trump Derangement Syndrome&lt;/I&gt;

Perhaps. I am willing to concede the point... Possibly...

But MINE is based on love of country and respect for a great leader..

Yours is based on hate and bigotry...

That&#039;s the difference that makes ALL the difference..

As far as ignoring your point..  It&#039;s because it&#039;s apparent from the facts that your point is based on hate and bigotry, not on any real issue or concern for dead Americans..

Because if you DID actually care about dead Americans, you would have condemned Obama for his incompetence that resulted in 12,269 of them in the same breath that you condemn President Trump for less than 200 of them...</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><i>Dude, no one gives a f*ck about Swine Flu or anything else before Trump.</i></p>
<p>And THAT is my point...</p>
<p>If you don't care that Obama's incompetence killed over 12,000 Americans and you bitch at President Trump because around 200 Americans have died...</p>
<p>Do you see the incongruity??</p>
<p>It *PROVES* that the issue is NOT dead Americans..</p>

		<description>Sorry, Liz, it had to be said. I would simply scroll thru Michale&#039;s comments but the guy is smart enough to make a good point from time to time. What a waste of talent. I am hungry to find a Conservative to engage with, too bad Michale is not game.</description>

Sure I&#039;m pissed that the Dems think that sending Joe Biden against Trump was the best move. Doesn&#039;t flavor my comments at all. I would be &lt;b&gt;delighted&lt;/b&gt; to engage with you as you are a smart (albiet misguided) guy. But all I get from you is (1)ignoring my point and (2) &quot;Whataboutism?&quot; Dude, no one gives a f*ck about Swine Flu or anything else before Trump. We have to go to war with the President we unfortunately have, and all you add to the comment section is that if you ever got to meet Trump you leave no doubt that you&#039;d swallow. You have Trump Derangement Syndrome, not I.</description>

Just to show you how totally frak&#039;ed yer state of mind is right now???

You give what you probably think is good advice in comment #59 and then totally ignore that allegedly &quot;good&quot; advice in comment #60...

Maybe you should consider that, if you can&#039;t follow your own advice... Maybe it&#039;s not advice worth following...

Think about it...</description>

		<description>CW,

I have already proven that the worldometer website is driven by propaganda and bullshit.. NOT by facts..

&lt;I&gt;Scroll down to the first chart. See that curve flattening any time soon? I don&#039;t.&lt;/I&gt;

Yea and no one saw China&#039;s flattening of the curve.. Until it flattened..

The reality is things are NOT going to be as bad as the Trump/America haters wish them to be..

I would LOVE to see your comments on Ilhan Omar complimenting President Trump on his leadership.. :D

&lt;I&gt;Trump screwed the pooch on this one. &lt;/I&gt;

And yet, DEMOCRAT like Omar and Cuomo are praising President Trump&#039;s leadership..

But I have to ask.. If less than 200 dead is &quot;failed leadership&quot;...

What is Odumbo&#039;s leadership called when over 12 THOUSAND Americans died..

Funny how you ignore that fact...  

I&#039;m just saying..

Let me put it this way..  When we get to the end of this and less than 6,000 Americans died under President Trump&#039;s leadership..

Will you finally concede that President Trump did better than Odumbo??

12,269 quatloos (the same number of deaths under Odumbo) says you won&#039;t..</description>

		<description>Cashing in his stocks wasn&#039;t the worst thing Senator Burr did. He gave a private briefing on the threat of the coronavirus to his rich donors without informing the rest of his constituents. He not only thought he was more entitled to financial advantages than his constituents, he thought his rich donors had a greater right to protect their health and their lives than his other constituents.</description>

		<description>Don Harris -

In all the time and energy you&#039;ve spent here (which is a gargantuan amount, even you have to admit), have you EVER convinced ONE SINGLE PERSON as to the righteousness of your cause?  One?

Didn&#039;t think so.  Maybe you should get another hobby, because you&#039;ve more than worn out your welcome here.

We&#039;re moving up the list.  We&#039;ve passed South Korea and Germany, and we&#039;re still moving upwards fast.  WE are the new epicenter of the outbreak, because Trump wasted so much time rather than attack the outbreak with the same ferocity that South Korea did.

Those are the facts, Jack.

&quot;The captain of the Titanic showed amazing leadership by steering straight at the iceberg, while insisting that icebergs are no more than overblown ice cubes, and by smashing into one, the passengers would all have much colder cocktails as a result.&quot;

&quot;Many people in New Orleans are praising George W Bush for his awesome leadership in allowing all those people to die without sending any help.  Because he looked so damn presidential when he flew over in his plane.&quot;

Seriously, dude: that&#039;s what you sound like.  Utter derangement.  Call it Trump-Worshipping Syndrome.

As for Obama, remember way back when, when you complained over and over again during the Obama years that he shouldn&#039;t blame Dubya for anything because Obama was now president and should own everything?  Yeah, those were the days (checks calendar) now that we&#039;re over 3 years in to Trump&#039;s term...

I mean... sheesh... get a grip.  In your own terms: Trump screwed the pooch on this one.  Deal with it.  That pooch ain&#039;t gonna get unscrewed no matter how much Fox News you watch...

		<description>ffs Michale will you please take a breath and stop with the Swine Flu already. You keep taking numbers from the end of that epidemic and comparing them to the beginning of this one. C19 has a 10x higher mortality rate. We have 263 dead this morning. Twelve days from now that will be over 12,000. I&#039;m not just making this up Michale, there&#039;s no cure for this and the mortality rate is currently running about 4%. Infections (in the US are increasing by 40% per day, and so will deaths, lagging by 3 weeks. 263 * 1.4 for 12 days gets you over 12,000. Around this time the social distancing measures taken by SOME states will start to be reflected in the infection rates and we&#039;ll see a falling off (hopefully). These are real people Michale, and we need to be focusing on what we can do to reduce those numbers and bring relief to the suffering. If you have any lessons to bring forward from that time that might be helpful now, please do so. Otherwise you&#039;re just throwing beer cans at the goalie because it amuses you. If you want to do something useful, maybe have a think about what you&#039;re going to do to support your local hospital when they get overwhelmed with the dying. Which is starting to happen already, and will be happening near you in short order.
Peace. Stay safe.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>ffs Michale will you please take a breath and stop with the Swine Flu already. You keep taking numbers from the end of that epidemic and comparing them to the beginning of this one. C19 has a 10x higher mortality rate. We have 263 dead this morning. Twelve days from now that will be over 12,000. I'm not just making this up Michale, there's no cure for this and the mortality rate is currently running about 4%. Infections (in the US are increasing by 40% per day, and so will deaths, lagging by 3 weeks. 263 * 1.4 for 12 days gets you over 12,000. Around this time the social distancing measures taken by SOME states will start to be reflected in the infection rates and we'll see a falling off (hopefully). These are real people Michale, and we need to be focusing on what we can do to reduce those numbers and bring relief to the suffering.
