Yup! If you survive the plague, you can definitely do that. I DO hope you're in a red state, where the necessities are actually being sent.

More non-leadership from a useless, self-serving, finger-pointing politician.

JUST what we need.

You’re talking about Trump, I assume.

That wasn't the point I was making. The point was that nobody who is whining about Trump now said a peep about Obama nor would they have said a peep even if covid-19 showed up in 2010 instead of 2019. Obama oversaw 50 million infections and 12,000 deaths with H1N1. Nobody blamed him for it on either side. But Trump gets blamed if one of these whiners has a boil on his ass.

I think the (alleged) double standard is due to the different personalities involved when a crisis arrives. His critics have to face the fact that Trump is not the FDR fireside chat during the depression type, nor does he have Churchill’s “we will never surrender” rhetoric. And of course, while Truman’s approach was: “The buck stops here”; Trump’s is “I take no responsibility.” Still, he can do much good, especially if he lets people like Fauci do the talking.

As to Obama, having a winning personality works. Obama screws up, insults a cop, and apologizes, inviting both white cop and black scholar for a beer. Trump is accused of rape: “She’s not my type.” That’s how Trump rolls, and, who knew?, people get offended. Add to that his insults to half the population, and you can see why people don’t cut Donald much slack.

More votes for Trump. More and more people understand Democratic elected officials do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but rant 24/7 against the president with total promising NOTHING but doom and gloom. The Democratic Party is the party of only paranoid hate and fear mongering. They promise NOTHING but bad news doom - and that is all they offer.

I'm in God's country, which is CLEARLY not a Blue State.

But you care what Trump has to say, which is worse.

Trump on 26 Feb:

And again, when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.

Go ahead and follow this dumb **** off the cliff.

Not liking Trump and making ridiculous claims can easily be separated. Trump has no responsibility for this pandemic yet the usual suspects are using it for all they are worth politically. Schiff is talking even now about more investigations in the middle of this crisis. He is human refuse.
