There was never an Ebola outbreak in America. Are people that ignorant? I don't know how to comment on that without being political. Sounds like people have been duped into thinking people all over the country were dying of ebola while Obama played his fiddle. Literally only 2 people have ever contracted Ebola in the US.

..and of course, a certain casino and tenant building speculator from New York famously wrote, at that time, that if even one ebola patient makes it to our shore that Obama should lose his job.

Did I say the US? Good Lord, you people like making bad assumptions.
there are things called "treatments". there are numerous being tried now, including the malaria cocktail. if there are successful treatments, we can go about our business; maybe with masks, whatever. imo, we are just weeks away from a successful treatment being approved. you don't need a vaccine.

Mandatory vaccine you say?...Trust Bill Gates?...OVER MY DEAD BODY
Fauci will step down by the end of the week to spend more time with his family.
Red states will lift all restrictions May 1st regardless of trajectories.
The summer will be a hot mess, but the Dow will be back to 30,000 by Halloween.
Trump will be re-elected, albeit more narrowly, losing PA but hanging on to everywhere else from 2016. He'll also lose the popular vote by almost 6 million votes.
COVID comes back with a vengeance by Thanksgiving.
There... feel better now?
Found THE KNOWLEDGE alt account.
What happens in Florida now that felons can vote? This felon voting thing fascinates me.
It means Trump can vote for himself.
Brilliant
The fact that all of this sounds very possible is terrifying
I seem to recall that Putin mentioned Trump's Europe travel ban before it happened, and many people (myself included) were deeply skeptical. I think Putin's got some good intel.
Trump is not winning Michigan.
If this continues into the summer, you think Detroit actually shows up to the polls to vote?
So disgusting to hear these governors and federal politicians claim to understand what us “normal folk” are going through. They have ZERO clue as to what we are going through. They will be paid their six, seven, eight figure salaries throughout this situation, no matter what happens. They can all kiss my ass!! They are so out of touch with regular people!
Bluenin, no politicians make 7 or 8 figure incomes. Very few make over $200k. You are over generalizing a population.... which appears to be the same thing politicians are doing that has upset you.
He's just factoring in the behind-closed-doors portion. An actual accounting, in other words.
So it's both of your opinions that most politicians make millions in illegal kickbacks? That's an even worse over generalization than I thought he was saying. Well done.
well he typed 6 figures too

Actually many of them on both sides collect millions in campaign funds and then advertise through shell company ad agencies that collect fees on the ad spend sometimes in the millions. It’s a corrupt system. And nobody wants to seem to stop. Bernie has made millions this way legally.
I don't know your situation exactly, but you seem to be going through some difficult times these past couple of weeks. If so, you're not alone --far from it--but it might be time for you to step away from this place for a while and either find another outlet or focus on whatever you need to be focusing on right now. Hoping for the best for you either way.
Nah..I’ve just accepted that this is not going to be pretty and there is going to a tremendous amount of suffering from poverty and sickness. It’s just too much to think about right now.
This plainly isn't the forum to vent about it. Those places exist. This is just the latest of a series of OPs from you that are little more than stream-of-consciousness rants. If it's really too much to think about for you, step back and focus on something else, that's all.
Well how about just stop posting about it and bringing the rest of us down to your pit of despair.
Is Joe Biden the OP?
If I could give you more then one vote I would!!
Funny. I'd do the same for Biden.
Logged in to agree with and upvote you!
The 20th century “featured” two world wars, a Great Depression, Vietnam and Korean wars, stagflation of the 70s, the Iran hostage crisis, the Montreal Olympics, race riots, a great recession in the 80s, the Spanish flu, McCarthyism, 2 nuclear bombs, the Cold War, nuclear fallout drills at school, and Milli Vanilli, but you’re not optimistic about the future? Maybe you haven’t been paying attention in school. Life sucks and then you die. You either try to make the most out of every day or you don’t. That choice is up to you.
Montreal Olympics?
Did he mean the Munich Olympics where the Munich Massacre happened?
That said, excellent post from Teeba.
/Oh snap. I know why he mentioned Montreal. Many African countries boycotted the 76 Montreal Olympics. Even more countries boycotted the 80 Moscow Olympics (after USSR invaded Afghanistan). I didn't know that fact until Ocelot mentions that to Naked Snake in Metal Gear Solid V after Big Boss wakes up from his 9 year coma.
Montreal is considered the Munich of Canada.
montreal olympics were difficult to endure while watching hoser vision (channel 9 out of windsor). those constant cherry blossum commercials drove me crazy.
I'd have listed it first. He was being kind to the sensibilities of the Québécois.
forget the olympics, i'm still trying to recover from milli vinilli
Never mind, he's rolling...
Exactly, and thanks for reminding me to add when “the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor” to my list.
You know, Caitlin "don't call me Bruce" Jenner.
girl, you know it's true
Start your day by writing down 3 things you are grateful for as you eat breakfast. You’ll be surprised how quickly your outlook changes.
Gee, thanks. Ran out of breakfast bananas here.
Be grateful for koalas.
Yes, Koala bone marrow is a delicacy.
That's easy. I always so grateful for breakfast itself.
It's going to at least go through the election. Another shot for them to try and take Trump out of office. They tried with Russia collusion, Impeachment and now they are using COVID-19 as a vehicle to shutdown the country. The ultimate goal is to get Trump out of office.
Yes Italy, Spain, France and countless other countries around the world are all shutting down in order to hurt the U.S president politically.
It's all intertwined, yes. Remember, the president of the United States doesn't just affect the United States. Who's in office for us matters worldwide. The fact that they don't want Trump in and have been trying to get him out since the 2016 election goes far beyond just the United States. They are using any method they can to get him out. Why would they be blaming him for not acting earlier back in the 3rd week of February when the NYT came out with an article stating that he was told about it then? Dr. Fauci said on CNN: “If Trump had listened to our recommendations, we could have saved lives sooner.”
Dr. Fauci said on January, 21st, “Coronavirus is not a major threat for the people in the United States and this is not something the citizens should be worried about." He later said on January 26th, “The American people should not be worried or frightened by coronavirus. This is a very, very low risk to the United States. “It isn’t something the American public needs to be worried about or be frightened about.” Five days later, Trump issued a travel ban on China and nobody was with him on it.
Thats it! That proves a worldwide conspiracy! Thanks for illuminating the path for us!
So just for a point of clarification:
Is China pro-Trump or anti-Trump and do they overstate the threat of the virus or underplay it?
The Alex Jones / QAnon types don't need to worry about these "inconsistencies". As long as you can use it to be angry at things that have already made you angry, consistency isn't important
