    You make a good point.But yer kinda forgetting a little something.
    That's about half of what Democrats Live for.To Blame.
    Pin everyone and everything on someone or something else but
    Themselves.It's half of what Democrats live for.
    Easily

    Every time I see them post that stupid extreme arrow, I giggle to myself thinking how angry they are that they cant actually argue against whatever point was made so they have to resort to trying to attack the source. Might as well be waving a big red flag stating "I give up I cant debate the topic"

    It shore nuff was when it came to Slavery and Segregationists.
    Dinesh D'Souza made a documentary highlighting how Not a single
    Republican Office holder held a slave or slaves.It was basically
    Democrats.The same Party that Invited the Ku Klux Klan to have a
    seat at their 1924 DNC Convention.
    The same party who Authored and enforced Jim Crow.
    So in that respect you are wholly wrong.Since it's That Party
    { The Democrats } who keep screeching-on about Race and
    mandatory Critical Race Theory being indoctrinated into our schools.
    Whether or not parents agree.Like to hell with Parents.
    Plus this new term for Mommies.They are no longer Moms.
    But " Birthing people ".
    You can't make this stuff up.
    I dint.

    So then agree.The entire reason Biden hid in his basement and refused
    to have Campaign Rally's was because he was eager to debate issues
    and field questions from a thoroughly one-sided MSM.
    I think you just hooked yerself like a big bloated carp who was
    caught snagged by someone fishing off a pier using an oversized
    hook and a marshmellow as bait.

    Because you could care more.? Then why haven't you.
    Unless you are a stay at home { in the basement type } who
    relies on the kindness of relatives to have a place to eat,sleep
    have Internet and maybe a toilet down the basement hall at yer
    disposal.
    Or is there more to yer daily gig.

    How Irony,Hypocrisy and being a Democrat today operates.
    In short there is no dealing with them.They don't respond to
    reason,let alone Truth.Nor anything that in the least complicates their
    driven agenda.It's somewhat similar to the mindset of the Bolsheviks
    of Early Russia.After Lenin died and Stalin made his move to take
    over Russia by forcing Trotsky out and consolidating power.
    The 2020 election was a way to do most of that.Force Trump out
    and consolidate power.Pesky stuff like Jobs and the Economy
    were never priorites.Just consolidating power and forcing the
    control over We the People.Using Mao type propaganda and
    China connections { bribing }.Like with the Biden Crime Family.
    Does Biden seem bugged by Fridays job report.Or course not.
    Nor Inflation or allowing our printed money seem as relevant as
    when Germany lost WW I and the Deutsche Mark became virtually
    worthless.Because that coming.Like Gas Shortages.

    Bidenomics and Blue State Authoritarianism work great for folks who already have money, but, not so well for everyone else.

    So you trust a state like California to tell the truth concerning data.
    Cite one example where California tells the truth.
    Whether about San Fransico,Los Angeles { their extreme homeless problem }
    or their Brownouts { more expected this summer } and of course the
    blatant liars who run Hollywood.It's more than a sanctuary state.
    It's a mess.

    I have no idea what point you are trying to make with this one either..

    I made a post about not debating the topic and attacking the source instead.. and neither of your replies make any sense to what I said.. did you mean to quote someone else and quoted me by mistake?

    What part about debating and these Democrats confounds you.
    I laid it out.There is NO Debating Democrats.In fact,they even refused
    to mention a summer of Riots { Protests } at their Mid-August DNC Convention.
    Not a word about Protests.Whereas the RNC Convention made
    These Summer Protests { Far too many violent } a Priority.
    The democrats also refuse to mention sources they dislike or disagree
    with.The entire excuse behind suppression of the Breaking story concerning
    Hunter Biden's Laptop.

    It’s special when you consider the elderly population in FL. FL is near the top of age and CA is near the bottom. That’s a BIG DEAL. Most people dying are old. It’s also special when you consider how businesses weren’t impacted as greatly. Still terrible what happened, but things opened up sooner with less destruction to the economy, deaths, along with fewer riots and looting.

    See the difference yet?

    That’s what they want to hide from. That Ca despite the strictest lockdowns and severest mask mandates and not having near the ratio of senior citizens to population could not produce lower per capita infection, hospitalization, death rates than a state that reopened big time so many moths ago.

    I have to question the chart. Iowa never had lock downs to my knowledge and everyone I know was still working. Why is Iowa lumped in with the worst states?

    We have been through this before. RED states feed and keep blue states alive so nothing you said which is in dispute matters.

    Texas and Florida are among those red states that supposedly don’t support themselves.

    Iowa supports itself just fine and was rated #1 before the pandemic. Also the #2 food producer in the country.

    California is somehow #1 even though over half of the state is a desert or full of mountains and they are facing a big drought so I don't see how Cali beats Iowa.

    We feed the blue states so they can't survive without us. Even Cali don't make enough food to keep its population alive.

    Of course Breitbart fails to mention that most blue states have in some cases more than 10 times compared to the amount of people then some red states.

    Because our snarky MSM { especially CNN and MSNBC } virtually Live
    to take any story and overthrow it.In the case of supporting the Democrats they
    laud it over the Media and praise it to the hilt.Too many examples to cite.
    If a story that seems somewhat troublesome,the Dems use it to castigate
    their opposition { Republicans } and Push their Blame Game mindset.
    There are also too many examples to cite.
    Because the examples are sometimes hourly.

    Yes Major Metropolis like N.Y.city and Los Angeles and Chicago.
    Even rust belt cities like Philly,even though Pittsburg was once King for
    Steel Mills.Keep in mind that is why those like Al Gore and Hillary
    who both lost Presidential Elections,maintain that a Popular Vote is
    far more American than an Electoral Vote.Because they knew how easy
    it would be to take a place like California and flip it all Democrat.
    This the reason when Hillary lost,she and her cabal of MSM reporting
    maintained that she actually won.Had near 3 million more popular votes than Trump.
    However take away the Popular vote in California where :
    Hillary - 8,753,788
    Trump - 4,483,810
    and we notice if you take away California ... Trump easily got over
    One Million more popular votes than Hillary.
    Plus eliminating the Electoral College also makes Campaigning a
    virtual piece of cake.No reason to even bother with Fly Over states.
    Just major metropolis.
