    No, you are attacking other posters by name calling because you don't like anyone criticizing Dear Leader for the millions of dumb things he says. IMO, only a fraction of the dumb things and lies he says make it to a thread.

    Bye ModCon.

    No. I just like to point out the hypocrisy of you and your fellow walkers.

    The victims of the Chinese Wuhan Coronavirus should be placed on ventilators until there is no alternative,
    Doctors are finding far better alternatives - far too late for tens of thousands.

    This is how one survivor stopped a ventilator from killing him.

    "After 14 days on a ventilator, COVID-19 patient Robert Sidberry took his health into his own hands and ripped the plastic tube out of his mouth, setting off all kinds of alarms and bells.

    Turned out, doctors found he could breathe sufficiently without the device and, after another week of recovery, he went home.

    But COVID-19 leveled such a beating on his lungs and body that the 55-year-old said he came home April 15 and spent several days in bed hooked to an oxygen machine. He couldn’t walk, not for more than a few steps, he said.

    He started the recommended physical rehabilitation, some arm twirls, but they left him so weak he needed the oxygen again."
    NEWSDAY EXCLUSIVE, Recovery from COVID-19 is a battle all its own, former hospital patients say, By Craig Schneider, By April 30, 2020.

    He stopped breathing. The ventilator saved his life. After nearly 2 weeks he started breathing on his own again. Tell me how the ventilator was killing him if he got better on it.

    You literally shared a story that destroyed your false claim.

    This kind of thing has to be worked out by doctors, science, I'm no expert. In fact, there is another doctor on YouTube saying that the ventilators are not needed, that patients are having trouble getting oxygen, their muscles needed to breathe are fine. It's as if people are like they are high on a mountain where the oxygen is thin.

    But, crap, I don't know.

    The general gist of Trump's statements over and over and over again, are more about Trump -- whether he is being treated unfairly, not being recognized, or bragging that a new policy is 'historic' or some petty rant with someone not important to the conversation, or it's all braggadocio, whining, and very little empathy for the plight of the injured or whatever is the subject of the day, it's always all about Trump.

    If that doesn't concern you that it is a flaw in a president so serious that this president is not up to the job, a flaw so serious that he is unfit for the job, well, it should concern everyone which is why I created a separate thread about it.

    'Innocuous' my ass.

    So really it's just the fact that you don't like his personality and that he's not the most articulate?

    As many will notice, these types of threads are pretty much devoid of any thoughtful ideological critique.

    Always rely on the best evidence available. The unsupported opinions of experts are always suspect, especially when their is a political angle or a lot of money involved.

    And what was the point of this 'fact' ? The point was he was lamenting that because America tests more than other countries, it makes him look bad.

    WTF?

    So, we have a president more concerned with how the case stats look make him look bad because other countries not testing as much?

    Only a dumbass, callous, uncaring, mindbogglingly stupid president would say such a thing.

    http://www.politicalforum.com/index...ay-less-testing-equals-less-cases-why.572610/

    And the sad truth is, that on a per capita basis, it's not true !!!

    It was to explain why we have more confirmed cases..because we test more then anyone else.

    Trump once sued Tim O'brien for defamation. What was the 'defamation' by O'brien?

    He called Trump a millionaire, instead of a billionaire. What is the character of a man that does this? Explain this to me.

    I don't belong to a 'lot.' This question has zero to do with your silly allegation of my 'faux Trump outrage.' This is addressed to you.

    So, ideally, you would prefer just one Thread on anything to do with Trump?

    Yes or no?

    Well? Yes or no?

    And better than any other Republican?

    You're using rational logic to explain statements from a moron. Trump clearly meant we have more case NOT BECAUSE WE HAVE MORE PEOPLE INFECTED BUT BECAUSE WE TEST,

    Trump doesn't care if people get Corona, he doesn't care if people die, he only cares if people think it's his fault.

    Trump is a tiny man with a fragile ego.

    If you think that you have a point, you could just try to make it, without the grandstanding.

    Yes, i wish the Republicans had been grooming someone else, maybe a younger more conservative person, then dumped Trump abour 10 months ago..

    Someone who was a true conservative.
