Re: Re: Re: Re: we can't have our cake and eat it too
I have to agree with Dan here.
The very protections that all me to use my car cameras are the one that let police run film from a helicopter.
Limited expectation of privacy in public.
It’s not a hill to die on. The benefits to the general public in the status quo far outweigh any concerns of ‘privacy’.
And as noted. They were up there, not on the street. Separating here is a good thing to keep peace and order.
Yes, quite precisely.
A 60hzX2 (120fps acl) projector starts at $3500 for a low end pioneer and tops out around $40k.
They go higher but if you go higher your a gimmick fool!
Passive glasses top out at $2.50-$5.00 and active shutter glasses in bulk (20+) run $5-$20 each.
3-point vibration motors cost $30 per 3. Or $4500 per 50 seats.
To be basic on this: setting up an imax 4K real 4D 50 seat theatre screen for digital display on the lower end of prosumer/entry com would cost:
$24999 for a Martin 5K 160 projector.
$4500 in motors
$4000 in MD8 wire
$12000 in speakers
$59999 for a 21.4 +8 tuner
$10000 in active glasses
$400 in copper tp cable.
And I don’t believe we’re disagreeing… all that much.
The problem with chain megas is they’ve willingly become a modern slave to the 1919 version of company display.
When you go to a mega and the same movie is on 20 of 30 screens you have a problem. A major one!
I’ve long wondered how the nearly always empty lot at the Ogden 16 running 3 movies managed to stay afloat.
You, Paul, Devil…
Yall have been a GREAT addition here.
I have never wanted or wished any harm on you and if i caused you any pain:
I really, truly, am sorry.
I would never wish to hurt anyone directly if there is any other option. And your absence will be missed.
Especially by me.
Gimmicks and personas aside,
All three of you have been instrumental in my growth as a human.
You said, and I quote…
It was a questioning statement.
Because despite your rhetoric I find him to be nothin more that a cut-throat businessman capable of keeping a country afloat.
And further studies said they didn’t
Not quite accurate. The big news studies found issues. The majority were left at minimal, leaning on benefit.
seatbelts
You make a mistake there. As seatbelts, by clinical observation, cause more injuries than they prevent deaths.
And that begs: does saving 50 override injuring 5000. That’s the ratio the most recent NASC report in 2018 came up with reviewing roughly 5076 crashes.
4 in 10 seatbelt injuries cause partial paralysis of loss of appendage use.
And then it didn’t. You keep leaving that out.
Yet it still does. That CNN doesn’t report it doesn’t nullify it. JSM Sep 2021 reports that the benefits likely outweigh the risks, but it should not be considered as a primary over other options.
much more widespread
And one could point to historical fact that panics based on arbitrary numbers without context can be worse than the problem at hand!
—bleach—
Look: fact. Trump in a (probably shouldn’t have been public in retrospect) discussion made comments about topical and subcutaneous use of cloride and chlorinated injections as a treatment vector.
I’m not a doctor. My family is full of medical training though. From ems (myself as a combat rescue SNCO) up to Drs.
What trump was, admittedly, misunderstanding was the difference in topical use (external) and semi-sub-dermal.
Some idiots took a misrepresentation of his pondering a in a tweet by an anti-Trump progressive activist completely at face value (mainstream media is proven to lie) and drank bleach. That’s a strike against media, not trump.
Nobody with any medical education or training or experience would have misunderstood what he was trying to understand.
Chlorine, and clorosulphur are common treatments for many ailments.
I’ve had clorosulphur injections in both wrists for my 4+ decades of computer use to treat my constant chronic pain.
It reduces inflammation. Fast!
Look, he read or hear something somewhere and went with it.
I won’t disagree it’s not for general public consumption but that’s the environment of 24-7-news-media-ratings-first society.
Trump did not suggest drinking bleach in any way shape or form and anyone who walked away with that idea… the blame falls 99.99999% on media and lack of proper narrative.
On hoax, states that didn’t shut down had by and large lower rates of covid: infection and death.
Which is evidence that what works in an urban, environment doesn’t in full rural.
Juneteenth?
Nearly nobody knew what that was. If not for trump nobody would know today. Egotistical or not. It is fact that we all know what it is today because trump scheduled a rally on a day the 99.9% didn’t consider to be of any meaning.
Shutdowns did little to spread. Again showing one rule does not fit the whole country.
It also meant they could fudge the numbers to make the pandemic look like it was slowing down/ending when it wasn’t.
Maybe. If you hate trump. But it also meant they could rule out shooting victims, motorcycle accidents and dog bites.
Your conflicting doctors constitute a large minority.
Typically, if I want advice about medicines and health, I turn to a doctor, not a pillow salesman or an elderly game show host.
As do I. Both my doctors were honest in their reviews. That there is evidence but it it is inconsistent and not reflected in CDC nor WHO reports.
I’d celebrate and cheer the massive achievement of the trump administration’s vaccination triumph regardless of who won. See above!
Masks? Well there’s the blatant undeniable fact that 5 people and 5 people employees in a 5000sqft store are unlikely to pass anything to each other. But let’s ignore that aspect and force rules on everyone when less than 10% of the land area is at risk.
They’re also people, you heartless monster
People with a job. If you don’t like your job or can’t or won’t do what is required find a different job.
If
If poll watchers were allowed to view the ballots as they always have and not been segregated for covid nobody would have questioned the election either.
When you take a job you do what the job requires. If not you quit or get fired. Period.
They mandated
You may want to do a little more digging if you want the truth. Since the hosts were mask free from start to finish.
Nobody has proven that such a thing has ever taken place.
Nor disproven
We do have all sorts of records of non-covid cases being reported as such.
Only from the same people who keep insisting, even now, that the election was stolen from Donald Trump.
No. Given how many places gave Clinton the win in 16 the question of early calling without 100% security is warranted.
There’s a reason or two for that
Yes, this is likely a lost control bio weapon. And it’s proving to be quite good at what it was designed to do.
Trump never actually pushing
If you need the president to tell you what to do I have no pity. If you only do what the president says I have no pity.
not to keep certain people out of the country based on, say, their skin color or their religion
And no matter how much you wish to wish it away NOT A SINGLE GOVERNMENT doubted the virus came from China. And trump sought to stop travel from China.
Yeah, because they’re actually racist enough to approve of those bans
And have no care for shutting down travel from a hot spot?
Travel to and from China should have been shut down day one by every government. If leaders took trump’s actions of logical fact over political correctness the virus would have had far less impact. Period.
No covid? No. I doubt we’d be any better or worse. I doubt we’d be any different at all.
you openly and knowingly advocated for torturing convicted rapists after they’ve been imprisoned.
Rape:
Yes. When there is zero doubt. And until you have someone close, or you yourself, suffer such an evil crime, don’t speak about proper punishment.
Because anyone who commits rape should die the most slow and torturous death. If we could bring back the dead they cycle should be repeated for eternity.
**Again; I don’t mean you any personal harm.
I’ve grown to rather like you despite what I consider fanciful beliefs.
You respond.
You debate.
I could do without the self aggrandisement but you often have well thought out replies.
It was your passionate beliefs on 230 that change my opinion.
I hope you will consider further debates upon your return.
Because you opinions do matter.
And I WILL miss our commentary**
You’re one of the best debaters I’ve ever come across and I will always hold you in high regard.
Few have ever gone toe to toe with me on politics. Less have changed my mind.
Despite our very large gap in ideals and ideas I will always consider you a guiding voice.
If you ever make it to the Great Lakes area I’d be handy to buy you a dozen rounds.
Be safe this season.
Be healthy.
I wish you the best regardless.
And a happy holiday season.
I have no opinion on schools. The science (factual science) is still pending.
Childhood recovery is 99% and infractions alone are hardly a rounding error in covid numbers.
I supported trump over
A) a genocidal maniac in 16 who made it a quest to support any country that helped or supported the Ukrainian persecution of native Rus and Gypsum populations.
B) a man who had barely passable facilities in 19/20 and would all but definitely be a puppet. How surely became just that.
I’m a libertarian. That makes me socially selfish by definition. Family. Friends. Self. In order. If something is left after that I’ll try to care.
That makes me more interested in personal freedoms over societal benefits. Including security.
Want to discuss masks. N(etc) masks have at or above 95% filtration. If I see someone not using a mask I walk away. A they have the right to die. I have the right to ignore them.
I don’t worry about that 5% because I got vaccinated and move away from any massless moron.
And as far as I am concerned Biden has done no better than trump on the virus and far worse on other things. Like abandoned Americans.
How’s that stay in Mexico… oh, wait, he’s reversing that.
Walls are barbar… oh wait, he’s reversing that.
Travel bans are xeno… oh wait, he changed on that too.
That mr stone and I can bicker back and forth so well is more for entertainment value than anything.
I didn’t say you personally said he was the great saviour. That was the general image of him propped up in the media. Save us from evil trump. Etc
Oh, the happy list I already line items for you?
Yes, a good many medical and viral scientists had contemplated that c19 would taper off,
Much like many viri do. Like the flu.
They were all wrong.
But just ignore the “you know in theory” aspect of what many believed a possibility.
Is it not good to be in communication with the WHO and international health agencies?
Oh, and that it wouldn’t be until may that we would see rising temperatures didn’t knock the virus back?
Trump endorsed the combination of two drugs, hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin, to treat coronavirus
Drugs shown to have preliminary benefits.
He took them himself following his infection.
That doesn’t mean we’re going to tell everybody no more driving of cars
Exactly. A rational response.
And what about two states that violate federal immigration law and deny access to federal law enforcement?
no evidence that hydroxychloroquine could fight the coronavirus — or that it was safe — Trump said he was considering it for himself.
It had shown considerably promise in helping recovery and minimising symptoms, and may have some affect on the actual virus.
Ultimately, he did take it.
—drank chlorine —
And that’s trump’s fault? Sure. Have at that premise.
“Do you need it?” he asked about testing. “No. Is it a nice thing to do? Yes.” He added, “We’re talking about 325 million people. And that’s not going to happen, as you can imagine.”
Let that number sink in.
Prompting widespread alarm
Bullshite. completely debunked.
The only person who suggested ingestion was a far left political activist writer. Who intentionally condensed the verbal exchange into propaganda for social media.
And while you blame trump for what he didn’t say, maybe, given how the media spent so long hiding anything of value, they had seen the post and believed he had said something dangerous when he did not.
I blame the idiot fake news tweet for any death from bleach ingestion.
The hoax was the fud the democrats rolled out.
When will they open a Cold Case on the Psycho Joe Scarborough matter in Florida,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “Did he get away with murder? Some people think so.”
Self explanatory.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel—is a self aggrandising law ignoring a candle riddled fool.
expressed doubt that the nation’s coronavirus death toll was as high as health departments said it was.
Well, when you have situations where gun shot victims and motorcycle accidents are included in covid 19 death counts, there good reason to question.
Trump said he would end the country’s relationship with the World Health Organization.
The organisation that bent over backwards and tied themselves into a pretzel to not investigate the lab origin of the virus.
The vast majority of the country didn’t know what Juneteenth was before trump was president.
2020 was the first year it was added to big tech calendar apps.
at a time when millions of Americans had lost their jobs and health care during the pandemic.
Jobs lost to the closing of businesses by liberal city and state governments.
Do you think he had a replacement plan ready if the Supreme Court “repealed” the ACA
No. Not likely. But the SCOTUS will rule. If it was unconstitutional it absolutely should be struck down.
maintained that 99 percent of coronavirus cases were totally harmless
A bit overstated. It was closer to 80%.
All data about patients with the coronavirus must be sent by hospitals to a central database in Washington, D.C.
Which would completely guarantee the government had access to all cases.
The Trump administration reportedly fought to keep states from getting billions of dollars of coronavirus relief money to conduct testing and contact tracing.
Yes: he opposed states that violated federal laws receiving federal funds.
July 28, 2020
Trump reposted a video of doctors who disagreed with the WHO and CDC.
So he minced a date and misspoke. Not like the current president doesn’t do that hourly.
And how does the post office support American lives?
Lindell is not a doctor
Neither are you. So what.
intentionally delaying
Funny how fast the rollout came AFTER the election?
The loss of the money could force hospitals to close.
So report the stats.
In August the majority medical belief was that asymptomatic people were not spreaders.
Trump forwards an article. Wow.
There’s a difference in need for a mask in a city of millions and a country of a few thousand. One size steps on many.
SSA? They had a job to do. Do the job or quite. Period
We will just ignore the Obama and Clinton and Biden events I guess. It’s not unique to trump
No interest in a mask mandate of any kind
Correct. I never said he pushed for one. I disagree with any mandate. I use a quality 95+ filtration mask by choice.
Trump called Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, “a disaster.”
I tend to agree. Mr fund weaponised viri.
Trump put forth a conspiracy theory
Fact. Hospitals with higher infection, and death, rates receive more C19 funding.
Trump officials refused to brief President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team about its plans to…
Do anything. No law required he do so and the election results were in question.
Despite this more people have died under Biden.
That is purely Biden at fault. Not trump. Who handed him multiple vaccinations to hand out to the public. Not just one!
More people have died in his second half as president than first. But that’s still somehow trumps fault.
You’re incapable of accepting facts. Biden is doing no better. Despite the increasing push for less liberty and more restrictions. Despite the return of mask mandates.
How quick was Biden to implement a travel ban on Africa? Where’s the backlash? It’s racist right?
Notice the republicans and right News aren’t calling for lawsuits to bar the travel ban?
But let’s just all hail president double death as he leads us into the toilet.
I hear by grant apple a perpetual option to track and collect as much information as they are legally allowed to in order to sell that information to advertisers who can then tailor adverts to my interests.
Sure blame trump for the “mess”.
The vaccines produced in record time.
Fully paid for and funded.
The attempted travel ban from source country China.
The massive distribution system nearly completed when he left office.
Maybe, just maybe, this is one hell of a virus and Biden is no special saviour? Maybe, just maybe, trump did much the same in the private side as Biden and it’s just the way it works out?
Maybe you’re just pissed off biden didn’t turn out to be god and trump wasn’t as incompetent as you claimed?
Because travel bans only work when Biden supports them.
It’s not his fault when more people die under his watch.
It’s just not possible for you to admit Trump positives of anything without permission of your progressive masters, is it.
And you can’t say anything bad if they say not to.
I think we understand.
Because maybe you could finally comprehend this country is more like China in population distribution than Anywhere in Europe?
Maybe the spread and death toll has something to do with 90-some% of the population crammed into a few % of land area?
Given brook gate and censorgate… and the countable loss of those not hooked on exclusives for the PS platform?
I wonder what the fallout will be if these games all go Xbox/pc.
The fallout for Sony.

The very protections that all me to use my car cameras are the one that let police run film from a helicopter.
Limited expectation of privacy in public.
It’s not a hill to die on. The benefits to the general public in the status quo far outweigh any concerns of ‘privacy’.
And as noted. They were up there, not on the street. Separating here is a good thing to keep peace and order.

Yes, quite precisely.
A 60hzX2 (120fps acl) projector starts at $3500 for a low end pioneer and tops out around $40k.
They go higher but if you go higher your a gimmick fool!
Passive glasses top out at $2.50-$5.00 and active shutter glasses in bulk (20+) run $5-$20 each.
3-point vibration motors cost $30 per 3. Or $4500 per 50 seats.
To be basic on this: setting up an imax 4K real 4D 50 seat theatre screen for digital display on the lower end of prosumer/entry com would cost:
$24999 for a Martin 5K 160 projector.
$4500 in motors
$4000 in MD8 wire
$12000 in speakers
$59999 for a 21.4 +8 tuner
$10000 in active glasses
$400 in copper tp cable.
And I don’t believe we’re disagreeing… all that much.
The problem with chain megas is they’ve willingly become a modern slave to the 1919 version of company display.
When you go to a mega and the same movie is on 20 of 30 screens you have a problem. A major one!
I’ve long wondered how the nearly always empty lot at the Ogden 16 running 3 movies managed to stay afloat.

Re:
Damn. Honestly; I’ve enjoyed debating with you.
You, Paul, Devil…
Yall have been a GREAT addition here.
I have never wanted or wished any harm on you and if i caused you any pain:
I really, truly, am sorry.
I would never wish to hurt anyone directly if there is any other option. And your absence will be missed.
Especially by me.
Gimmicks and personas aside,
All three of you have been instrumental in my growth as a human.
It was a questioning statement.
Because despite your rhetoric I find him to be nothin more that a cut-throat businessman capable of keeping a country afloat.
Not quite accurate. The big news studies found issues. The majority were left at minimal, leaning on benefit.
You make a mistake there. As seatbelts, by clinical observation, cause more injuries than they prevent deaths.
And that begs: does saving 50 override injuring 5000. That’s the ratio the most recent NASC report in 2018 came up with reviewing roughly 5076 crashes.
4 in 10 seatbelt injuries cause partial paralysis of loss of appendage use.
Yet it still does. That CNN doesn’t report it doesn’t nullify it. JSM Sep 2021 reports that the benefits likely outweigh the risks, but it should not be considered as a primary over other options.
And one could point to historical fact that panics based on arbitrary numbers without context can be worse than the problem at hand!
Look: fact. Trump in a (probably shouldn’t have been public in retrospect) discussion made comments about topical and subcutaneous use of cloride and chlorinated injections as a treatment vector.
I’m not a doctor. My family is full of medical training though. From ems (myself as a combat rescue SNCO) up to Drs.
What trump was, admittedly, misunderstanding was the difference in topical use (external) and semi-sub-dermal.
Some idiots took a misrepresentation of his pondering a in a tweet by an anti-Trump progressive activist completely at face value (mainstream media is proven to lie) and drank bleach. That’s a strike against media, not trump.
Nobody with any medical education or training or experience would have misunderstood what he was trying to understand.
Chlorine, and clorosulphur are common treatments for many ailments.
I’ve had clorosulphur injections in both wrists for my 4+ decades of computer use to treat my constant chronic pain.
It reduces inflammation. Fast!
Look, he read or hear something somewhere and went with it.
I won’t disagree it’s not for general public consumption but that’s the environment of 24-7-news-media-ratings-first society.
Trump did not suggest drinking bleach in any way shape or form and anyone who walked away with that idea… the blame falls 99.99999% on media and lack of proper narrative.
On hoax, states that didn’t shut down had by and large lower rates of covid: infection and death.
Which is evidence that what works in an urban, environment doesn’t in full rural.
Juneteenth?
Nearly nobody knew what that was. If not for trump nobody would know today. Egotistical or not. It is fact that we all know what it is today because trump scheduled a rally on a day the 99.9% didn’t consider to be of any meaning.
Shutdowns did little to spread. Again showing one rule does not fit the whole country.
Maybe. If you hate trump. But it also meant they could rule out shooting victims, motorcycle accidents and dog bites.
Your conflicting doctors constitute a large minority.
As do I. Both my doctors were honest in their reviews. That there is evidence but it it is inconsistent and not reflected in CDC nor WHO reports.
I’d celebrate and cheer the massive achievement of the trump administration’s vaccination triumph regardless of who won. See above!
Masks? Well there’s the blatant undeniable fact that 5 people and 5 people employees in a 5000sqft store are unlikely to pass anything to each other. But let’s ignore that aspect and force rules on everyone when less than 10% of the land area is at risk.
People with a job. If you don’t like your job or can’t or won’t do what is required find a different job.
If
If poll watchers were allowed to view the ballots as they always have and not been segregated for covid nobody would have questioned the election either.
When you take a job you do what the job requires. If not you quit or get fired. Period.
You may want to do a little more digging if you want the truth. Since the hosts were mask free from start to finish.
Nor disproven
We do have all sorts of records of non-covid cases being reported as such.
No. Given how many places gave Clinton the win in 16 the question of early calling without 100% security is warranted.
Yes, this is likely a lost control bio weapon. And it’s proving to be quite good at what it was designed to do.
If you need the president to tell you what to do I have no pity. If you only do what the president says I have no pity.
And no matter how much you wish to wish it away NOT A SINGLE GOVERNMENT doubted the virus came from China. And trump sought to stop travel from China.
And have no care for shutting down travel from a hot spot?
Travel to and from China should have been shut down day one by every government. If leaders took trump’s actions of logical fact over political correctness the virus would have had far less impact. Period.
No covid? No. I doubt we’d be any better or worse. I doubt we’d be any different at all.
Rape:
Yes. When there is zero doubt. And until you have someone close, or you yourself, suffer such an evil crime, don’t speak about proper punishment.
Because anyone who commits rape should die the most slow and torturous death. If we could bring back the dead they cycle should be repeated for eternity.
**Again; I don’t mean you any personal harm.
I’ve grown to rather like you despite what I consider fanciful beliefs.
You respond.
You debate.
I could do without the self aggrandisement but you often have well thought out replies.
It was your passionate beliefs on 230 that change my opinion.
I hope you will consider further debates upon your return.
Because you opinions do matter.
And I WILL miss our commentary**
You’re one of the best debaters I’ve ever come across and I will always hold you in high regard.
Few have ever gone toe to toe with me on politics. Less have changed my mind.
Despite our very large gap in ideals and ideas I will always consider you a guiding voice.
If you ever make it to the Great Lakes area I’d be handy to buy you a dozen rounds.
Be safe this season.
Be healthy.
I wish you the best regardless.
And a happy holiday season.

Re: Re:
For others who stumble across this:
I have no opinion on schools. The science (factual science) is still pending.
Childhood recovery is 99% and infractions alone are hardly a rounding error in covid numbers.
I supported trump over
A) a genocidal maniac in 16 who made it a quest to support any country that helped or supported the Ukrainian persecution of native Rus and Gypsum populations.
B) a man who had barely passable facilities in 19/20 and would all but definitely be a puppet. How surely became just that.
I’m a libertarian. That makes me socially selfish by definition. Family. Friends. Self. In order. If something is left after that I’ll try to care.
That makes me more interested in personal freedoms over societal benefits. Including security.
Want to discuss masks. N(etc) masks have at or above 95% filtration. If I see someone not using a mask I walk away. A they have the right to die. I have the right to ignore them.
I don’t worry about that 5% because I got vaccinated and move away from any massless moron.
And as far as I am concerned Biden has done no better than trump on the virus and far worse on other things. Like abandoned Americans.
How’s that stay in Mexico… oh, wait, he’s reversing that.
Walls are barbar… oh wait, he’s reversing that.
Travel bans are xeno… oh wait, he changed on that too.
That mr stone and I can bicker back and forth so well is more for entertainment value than anything.

Re:
I didn’t say you personally said he was the great saviour. That was the general image of him propped up in the media. Save us from evil trump. Etc
Oh, the happy list I already line items for you?
Yes, a good many medical and viral scientists had contemplated that c19 would taper off,
Much like many viri do. Like the flu.
They were all wrong.
But just ignore the “you know in theory” aspect of what many believed a possibility.
Is it not good to be in communication with the WHO and international health agencies?
Oh, and that it wouldn’t be until may that we would see rising temperatures didn’t knock the virus back?
Drugs shown to have preliminary benefits.
He took them himself following his infection.
Exactly. A rational response.
And what about two states that violate federal immigration law and deny access to federal law enforcement?
It had shown considerably promise in helping recovery and minimising symptoms, and may have some affect on the actual virus.
Ultimately, he did take it.
—drank chlorine —
And that’s trump’s fault? Sure. Have at that premise.
“Do you need it?” he asked about testing. “No. Is it a nice thing to do? Yes.” He added, “We’re talking about 325 million people. And that’s not going to happen, as you can imagine.”
Let that number sink in.
Bullshite. completely debunked.
The only person who suggested ingestion was a far left political activist writer. Who intentionally condensed the verbal exchange into propaganda for social media.
And while you blame trump for what he didn’t say, maybe, given how the media spent so long hiding anything of value, they had seen the post and believed he had said something dangerous when he did not.
I blame the idiot fake news tweet for any death from bleach ingestion.
The hoax was the fud the democrats rolled out.
Self explanatory.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel—is a self aggrandising law ignoring a candle riddled fool.
Well, when you have situations where gun shot victims and motorcycle accidents are included in covid 19 death counts, there good reason to question.
The organisation that bent over backwards and tied themselves into a pretzel to not investigate the lab origin of the virus.
The vast majority of the country didn’t know what Juneteenth was before trump was president.
2020 was the first year it was added to big tech calendar apps.
Jobs lost to the closing of businesses by liberal city and state governments.
No. Not likely. But the SCOTUS will rule. If it was unconstitutional it absolutely should be struck down.
A bit overstated. It was closer to 80%.
Which would completely guarantee the government had access to all cases.
Yes: he opposed states that violated federal laws receiving federal funds.
Trump reposted a video of doctors who disagreed with the WHO and CDC.
So he minced a date and misspoke. Not like the current president doesn’t do that hourly.
And how does the post office support American lives?
Neither are you. So what.
Funny how fast the rollout came AFTER the election?
So report the stats.
In August the majority medical belief was that asymptomatic people were not spreaders.
Trump forwards an article. Wow.
There’s a difference in need for a mask in a city of millions and a country of a few thousand. One size steps on many.
SSA? They had a job to do. Do the job or quite. Period
We will just ignore the Obama and Clinton and Biden events I guess. It’s not unique to trump
Correct. I never said he pushed for one. I disagree with any mandate. I use a quality 95+ filtration mask by choice.
I tend to agree. Mr fund weaponised viri.
Fact. Hospitals with higher infection, and death, rates receive more C19 funding.
Do anything. No law required he do so and the election results were in question.
Despite this more people have died under Biden.
That is purely Biden at fault. Not trump. Who handed him multiple vaccinations to hand out to the public. Not just one!
More people have died in his second half as president than first. But that’s still somehow trumps fault.
You’re incapable of accepting facts. Biden is doing no better. Despite the increasing push for less liberty and more restrictions. Despite the return of mask mandates.
How quick was Biden to implement a travel ban on Africa? Where’s the backlash? It’s racist right?
Notice the republicans and right News aren’t calling for lawsuits to bar the travel ban?
But let’s just all hail president double death as he leads us into the toilet.

Re:
Sure blame trump for the “mess”.
The vaccines produced in record time.
Fully paid for and funded.
The attempted travel ban from source country China.
The massive distribution system nearly completed when he left office.
Maybe, just maybe, this is one hell of a virus and Biden is no special saviour? Maybe, just maybe, trump did much the same in the private side as Biden and it’s just the way it works out?
Maybe you’re just pissed off biden didn’t turn out to be god and trump wasn’t as incompetent as you claimed?
Because travel bans only work when Biden supports them.
It’s not his fault when more people die under his watch.
It’s just not possible for you to admit Trump positives of anything without permission of your progressive masters, is it.
And you can’t say anything bad if they say not to.
I think we understand.
Because maybe you could finally comprehend this country is more like China in population distribution than Anywhere in Europe?
Maybe the spread and death toll has something to do with 90-some% of the population crammed into a few % of land area?
