    These people....


    “...the white-haired Republicans seemed to delight in breaking the new rules. They made a show of shaking hands, and complained loudly about the “stupid hoax” being propagated by virus alarmists. When their tee times were up, they piled defiantly into golf carts, shoulder to shoulder, and sped off toward the first hole. “

    Today's death count was 1,046 and counting (although about done). No country except for China has recorded more. Spain and Italy have stabilized at about 800, which are terrible figures, to be sure, but we have moved past them. For the foreseeable future, we will post the world's highest death totals each day.*

    * Yeah India and such. We will post the highest death totals among civilized countries that can somewhat be trusted to post honest numbers.

    Wow. Own the Libz! Know why? So they don't own YOU!!!

    As an immunocompromised cancer survivor, Trahan said he’s familiar with commonsense social-distancing practices. But as a conservative, he’s become convinced that many Democrats are so invested in the idea that the virus will be disastrous that they’re pushing for prolonged, unnecessary shutdowns in pursuit of vindication.​


    Okay, Bro. And good luck with that immunocompromised thingy.

    Most likely of PA, MI and WI to stick with Trump, as it's the most white & rural. He can not lose Wisconsin and win the election.

    I can't wrap my head around this right wing logic. We, on the left, are exaggerating the seriousness of the disease to make Trump look bad, even though it's predominantly killing OUR grandmothers, not theirs. We'd rather see our nana dead than give Trump credit for his success. Is that it, in a nutshell?

    I've written before, I don't trust Wisconsin. But NC, Arizona, Georgia, and Florida are plays.

    Well, yeah. It's logically consistent with the established premise that liberals are evil.

    It has been said that FDR saved capitalism in America with a little socialism.

    Rick Wilson penned an interesting article about the Don Jr coronation some months ago

    In short it ticks a box for a GOP that is focussed on one party rule, and has sold out to Trumpism

    Of course the small issue is how to win in 2020

    I think if they do win in 2020 they will have enough time to corrupt the US to the point where the Don Jr coronation happens

    I mean, when has lack of brains ever stopped the Republicans? If anything, it's an asset to lose as many brain cells as possible so you can be "authentically" willing to repeat the talking points instead of disingenuously repeating said points.

    In the end, however, you gotta be at least smart enough to be able to sell the con. His old man is not smart, but he knows how to sell the con.

    Junior is not.

    If you find you are not smart enough to sell the con you don't need to get smarter you just need to find dumber marks.

    Yes, Our grandmothers are slow to accept intersectionality and the fluidity of gender. Therefore, the iron laws of history theory point to the necessity of their liquidation.

    It's all there in Marx and Judith Butler. Don't you remember your Grievance Studies classes from University?

    My personal growth during this crisis is that despite having more time to do so, I'm less willing to look at ignored content.
