    Telling a member to **** off is against the rules.

    Question for ya, ask yourself if you would still feel the same way about our response to the virus if Obama was POTUS?

    Actually Trump created the virus to try to take out china due to china unwillingness to help him with the election but it backfired on him..


    See how easy it is to make stuff up

    Intentionally posting misinformation is also against the rules.

    I don't think it matters who the president is or was...

    In Feb they were projecting millions dead. That didn't happen.

    If Biden was president, there is nothing that he could have done to prevent people dying. It was inevitable.

    To think we would be the only country on the planet not to get hit with it, you're naive.

    And all the PPE enforcement in the world isn't going to get scared people to fly, especially when they see that wearing a mask didn't keep people like the governor of Virginia, who also happens to be a physician, from catching the WuFlu.

    With that in mind, perhaps I was wrong. Perhaps, the news of Hope Hicks giving the Trumps the virus on an airplane really won't affect anyone's behavior. Either you're scared or you're not.

    New Zealand is an island the size of my backyard.

    When you start trying to compare that to the US, you've already lost.

    I didn't say we would be the only Country not to get hit with it.

    Did you ever believe that the United States of America would be the worst Nation on the planet in dealing with a global pandemic? Are you proud of our miserable response to handling a global pandemic?

    The numbers of people killed by the virus will pail in comparison to the millions that will die if the democrat's socialist take over of this nation is successful.

    Yes. 100%. We move more than any other country. We go out more than any other country. We were founded on the idea that government sucks so half the country was never going to wear masks. We spend more time watching sports and concerts and going to amusement parks and dinners than anyone else.

    We didn't shut anything down other than liberal La La lands but, everywhere else is doing just fine economically.

    The fact that you're surprised we have the count that we does tells me you had unrealistic expectations from the beginning, and even now, you were still expecting something unrealistic but now you're allowing your unrealistic belief you held months ago to cloud your opinion now.

    This is all assuming you want to believe the numbers from China and Iran and India and every other third world Asian country that exists.

    Yep. Makes sense. The entire plane was in the spit zone of a Screaming Guilfoyle.

    That’s uncalled for. Against forum rules. And completely untrue. Is that what you consider debating like a grownup?

    Your link confirms virtually everything I said, except the relative positions of USA and the UK,

    And the link below says USA is worse than UK.
    https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries

    So instead of throwing insults, why don’t you do the adult thing and address one of my points and explain why you say it isn’t true?

    It has an 80% infection rate and viable vaccines take 10 years to make. Even if you fast track a vaccine in 2 years, that means BY DEFINITION you cannot know what any long term effects will be.

    You take that vaccine if you want to. I’ll rely upon my own antibodies. Thanks

    This thread devolved fast.

    -This is not good news. Those who are celebrating should be ashamed.
    -No, you cannot guarantee that he will recover quickly
    -No, you aren't going to catch COVID by wearing a mask. You may catch it, even if you wear a mask, but the mask won't be the reason

    I've been saying for months that I wish he'd wear a mask and socially distance. This is the worst time for a president to be sick.

    He/She didn't post misinformation. His post was accurate. And US deaths is 208847 not 207072 giving US a higher death rate than UK --> only Belgium & Spain in Europe (countries over 1M) have worse death rate than US

    No conspiracy. There’s just no way they could have accomplished what they claim they did in the timeline they did it in. Not a conspiracy. Simply fact.
