Im like 99.9% sure that the election stuff going on is just to like, solidify the new brand for trump for the next 4+ years...

But 0.01% of me thinks he might pull this off and invalidate the election lol which would just be so damn exciting that I almost want to see it happen.

Lets be realistic, all we're trying to fix is a system where we all go shopping at the mall and complain about the crowds and how we dont have enough money to buy things at said mall [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Maybe a Geostorm type scifi disaster movie would be more fun to live inside of than insurance shopping for the rest of our lives, just saying. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Remember too that when Trump shut down travel from China, he was labeled a hateful xenophobe. Remember Nancy wanted us to hold hands and go dancing down in China town. Chucky Schumer and Cuomo wanted business as usual. Democrats flipped a 180 once they saw that they could turn this crisis into an opportunity.

The only thing I will give you is the dismantling of the pandemic response programs, which admittedly I know very little about. How much would it have helped? Hard to say, it never really seemed like our hospitals were taxed beyond capacity. We never ran out of ventilators or masks. The Hospital Ship mercy was never used, although it may have been a good place to send older covid patients rather than forcing them into nursing homes (see Andrew Cuomo)

Its easy to monday morning quarterback, but even removing that, Trump responded with a balanced approach.

How many people will die because of our over reaction to Covid? How many people will commit suicide, die from addictions started or exacerbated by a draconian covid response? How much wealth has our nation lost, which in time translates into better care for our people.
Tell that to the 4 people I know or am related to who have died from COVID at young ages while they had zero health conditions. Your statement is so insensitive and ignorant. You are a horrendous human being.

That's obviously tragic and unfortunate, but *extremely* unlikely for the vast majority of young healthy people. Lots of diseases kill people. I do not call other human beings "horrendous" because they don't panic and hide in their house from influenza, which objectively kills more healthy young people than covid does. Please calm down and think rationally.

I actually already responded to you awhile back with stats disproving your flu claim.

I don’t panic either, but to downplay it and allow people to justify not taking proper precautions is insulting and idiotic.

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

Yeah that sounds about right.

Also OJ was innocent if you didn't know.

The sad thing is, I honestly don't think anybody would care if election fraud had definitely occured, was proven, and that it switched the outcome. I think a disturbingly large percentage of people would essentially say "whatever, who cares, trump is bad".
