Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[zorkuus]

How is it exaggerated and not under control at the same time?

I wish we had tRump here with us to answer that dilemma. I could not wait for the offtopic word salad that follows.

[Gorsameth]

Corona is exaggerated and if the Democrats didn't go full retard and allowed protests to occur the Coronavirus would have been under control such as Europe. And are you talking about chloroquine? make the study that says it kills people has been peer reviewed and found to be thrash.

Most of europe went into an actual lockdown and stayed there for 3-4 months.
The US did not.

That is why the US is getting fucked and Europe isn't.

In case you weren't sure how much FB's increasing advertising boycott, related to FB's lax policy on enforcing hate speech rules on political candidates, Coca-Cola's 30 day hiatus is seven billion dollars and they're hardly the only one.

So, after staying in DC to promote “LAW & ORDER” Trump snuck out to his golf course. Because of course he did.

He probably did that while tweeting about his latest victory in the polls.

Oh wait, sorry, I spelled that wrong. I said "polls" when I meant to say "Hannity interview TV ratings". Sorry, I got confused when Trump said

Do not believe the Fake News Media. Oklahoma speech had the highest Saturday television ratings in @FoxNews history. @seanhannity dominated T.V. with my interview on Thursday night, more than @CNN & MSDNC COMBINED. These are the real polls, the Silent Majority, not FAKE POLLS!

I saw some of our resident Trump supporters stop by to briefly make false statements without evidence, then leave. I politely invite them to comment on Trump's weekend of golfing and tweeting when
a) he said he'd stay in the White House and work, and
b) there's a spreading lethal virus outbreak.

[Benggaul]

The only reason he didn’t go on the trip is they have a mandatory quarantine for morons who hold rallies in Arizona and Oklahoma.

Sorry, but no.

“The president is deemed to be in the essential workforce category and therefore he is welcome to New Jersey," Murphy said during a Friday news conference. "There was no either private or public signal from us otherwise.”

The White House is being pretty mum about the real reason he didn't go, but as the article said there are supposedly thunderstorms predicted for the area so it wouldn't surprise me if it was something that small.

Uhm... Civil rights protestors wore masks, which is why there is no spike in NY or WA. The states having spikes are red states that trusted Trump. Civil rights protestors, didn’t have the same issue as Open Up protestors, because they didn’t listen to Trump. In fact, most countries that are still fucked, are like US and Brazil, where leadership chose to follow Trump’s path... including buying millions of dollars worth of chloroquine.

And are you talking about chloroquine? make the study that says it kills people has been peer reviewed and found to be thrash.

Maybe stop listening to politicians for medical advice? Especially this politician:



Why is it the two countries reporting the most cases, are two countries that put millions behind chloroquine, instead of helping their constituents? You think it’s a coincidence?

Edit: Oh and before any claims of off topic, chloroquine is 100% Trump’s fault. There isn’t a single other president that would do something so stupid.

You can ignore that particular gripe from the drive-by trolls. The reason COVID-19 is being discussed so heavily here is precisely BECAUSE Trump and his sycophants have been fucking up the response since day one which means this discussion absolutely does belong in this TRUMP SHITSHOW thread.

EDIT: Speaking of which: Another day, another new record for Florida. They're reporting 9,585 new cases today.

[Felya]

Hate to break it to you "genius" but the virus wasn't under control even before the protests.

In fact, Trump tweeted support for protestors who explicitly didn’t take precautions, because they were protesting a virus. The only people who suddenly forgot that Trump was encouraging protesting without masks, for the injustice of getting your hair did, are Trump supporters. The same people who were attacking nurses and forcing health officials to resign, because Trump supporters threaten their lives for speaking the truth.

lol... I brought that discussion here, from... you will never guess... from the European Statue destroying thread. Don’t ask... I participated in that off topic swerve and I’m not even sure how that turned.

Oh no, you weren't the first to bring it up here. Something crawled out from under a rock to complain that COVID-19 was off-topic here a page or two ago.

casting pearls before swine

he's been told that repeatedly, and he's just decided to endlessly do it and then whining about mods
just let him rot in the endless cycle he's choosing to run

Check the expiration on the latest infraction... oh well, I always got a smile on my face, when I saw thread with him as the latest post... gave me something to do at 3 am, before I successfully dozed off...

[Ripster42]

Check the expiration on the latest infraction...

How do you check that for other people?

[Felya]

How do you check that for other people?

Click their name -> latest posts -> check last couple of posts for infraction -> click the red flag of the infraction. It will show when the infraction expires. If it’s 3 month, for a poster that gets infracted regularly, it’s the end of the road.

Quoting WaPo:

“If I could go back and redo anything, it probably would have been to slow down the opening of bars, now seeing the aftermath of how quickly the coronavirus spreads in the bar setting,” Texas governor Abbott said in an evening interview with KVIA in El Paso.

That's him admitting the outbreak is on him.

My wife had a good laugh about that particular quote. "How could I have forseen this thing that was already known and that we were warned against doing?!"

It’s what you get for listening to Trump.

Are you fucking serious?

[Benggaul]

I just feel sorry for the constituents of the governors who thought it was a good idea to follow Trump's lead. They're getting totally fucked right now and it's not entirely their fault.

[Felya]

Are you fucking serious?

Yes, I am very serious... remember, crazy liberals are the ones wearing masks, to protect Trump’s constituents. It’s why Trump is losing the 64+ demographic... liberals actually wore masks while protesting, because unlike Trump’s, they are not a death cult.

Edit: Explain to me, why there are not spikes in NY or WA, where protests happened the most? Why are there spikes in Arizona and Texas, that saw less protests, but followed Trump’s bullshit?

It really does suck that it takes 120 thousand dead Americans for a lot of these people to wake the fuck up. Any other president and we would be leading the world...

Edit: Leading the world in how little impact covid had, not in number of cases. We got leadership on cases, down... Trump number one on that one.

It's entirely the fault of the people who voted them in. There's not really an excuse. If this was 30 years ago, there might have been an excuse, as there wasn't the same type of denialism in the GOP then.

It's going to take a lot more than that.

Well, for one, they were handing out free masks at the entrances and throughout the CHOP zone in Seattle when I visited. It was probably 90%+ mask-wearing that I saw.

Heres a place i think should be unionrically looted and burnt to the ground
and its also a symbol of white supremacy so it fits perfect with the theme of the protests

No thanks. Not a fan of attacking embassies.
