Made in China Flu

The Blame Death Stars of Fake News are focussed once again on Trump! He must feel like he's in a Globalist Dunking Booth.

TDS is a significant problem these days. Those with symptoms are advised to seek mental health professional, and refrain from posting utter stupidity, talking in public, and avoid all social events until cured.

Dude it’s Easter and you are bitter at the world. Stop being such a bitter loser, do something with your life.

Listen to Jordan Peterson, it’ll help you make better priorities and live a happier life.

If you think so, you don’t understand why capitalism always roars back in success.

Bet you 100$ It’ll roar back once virus shit is over in near future.

...such as closing traffic with China which is RACIST! and UNNECESSARY!

Wrongo bongo

why do you wipe out an entire post just because you think too much information is presented? I can see you limiting it, but you actually DELETE THE WHOLE THING.

If you try to put two videos in the same post it won't work.

Next time hit the back button and break it up into two posts.

One time I started a thread on "white privilege", a couple people posted, and then the thread disappeared. I suspect gremlins. Patrick is NOT here to censor our ideas.

Some parts of the economy should not come back, ever:

- closing American factories to open ones in China with weak pollution laws and no worker rights instead
- open borders so that US employers can undercut wages for US citizens by employing illegals instead
- global daily flights with no quarantine

Overall, the US economy seems likely to come roaring back as long as Trump is in office.

Trump's pre-virus economy was stunningly good, setting repeated records for three years.

Right, the ideas are all uncensored. Just don't insult the other users or the site.

Also, please do say if a post goes away. Could be a bug of some kind if that happens.

How does forbidding people from buying seeds keep hospitals from being overwhelmed?

We didn't see the clamor anywhere from experts on social distancing. The earliest person to act was the administration and too much hoopla over racist border closings. Should Trump have acted earlier? Absolutely. This caught everyone by surprise. You know, I wish he did ask for social distancing measures in Feb. Because it would have been amusing to watch the liberal backlash about how that's stupid and how he's stupid.

He's trying to get fired, he has from day one, his sole purpose is to contradict Trump, either until he has amassed enough CNN soundbites documenting Trump's deficiencies through his undermining everything Trump says, which he gets from Actual field Doctors, unlike Dr. Frauduci.
His job now is to talk behind his back on CNN, if this doesn't work by Tuesday he will be leaking confidential conversations to NYT. He will do this until he gets fired. So Schiff can use him as a material witness. Without out Trump invoking executive privilege.

I'ts the only play book these Phony Cock Suckers know, they are as obviously predictable as a Rap lyric.

If i know the epidemiological models and how they work, and that social distancing is bogus, how come Fauci doesn't?

He does, he just doesn't follow policy that adheres to them. Prolong the fear, the superstition, the lockdown and the pandemic, Rah!

Fauci has a job to do, and it has nothing to do with public health or saving lives. He is the face of the Propaganda Politburo.

Dr Frauduci is a professional grant applicant and nothing more.

The USA has tested over 2.5 million people. No other country has reported testing more. Yes - that's a fraction of the population. We are improving every day.

China's numbers are totally suspect since they shutdown information about the virus several weeks ago. We have no idea how many are dead, infected or tested. Largest country in the world and they get a pass on information exchange.

If this is a white lie, it's no worse than Obama telling everyone "You can keep your doctor" under Obamacare. That was a baldfaced fucking lie.

I find it entertaining how left makes up bad news. Their TDS isn’t validated by reality, so they just make shit up to not feel like complete morons.

Funny how pathetic left has become.

Much agreed. Capitalism simply works, no way people will not reopen businesses to better their lives.

Fauci said: “millions of deaths” , “200,000 deaths” “100,000 deaths”
My favorite: “I don’t need to wear a mask.”

Not allowing flights into the USA would have saved more lives, but they gave Trump shit over it.

Masks as effective as social distancing in the Czech Republic.

Fauci like a lot of short people likes to be the center of attention.

Yes he was wrong, but he was wrong because the people who were supposed to inform him were wrong and lying about being able to deliver a test they didn’t have. The CDC fucked up royally. Finally Trump got tired of their incompetence and lies and turned the problem over to the private sector which developed a 15 minute test in a matter of weeks. That test is already available in most places.

Point is, don’t believe the lying media because they have an agenda. Trump can’t do this stuff himself. He relies on the agencies to do their part and when they don’t, can get really be blamed for their failure? The President might be amazing but he’s not a super techie bioscience dude who can whip up a PCR test for a new virus in a few days.

As late as March 8th, merely a week before the nation-wide lock-downs, Fauci was only recommending people with underlying conditions (especially elderly) not to get on to cruise ships, while not discouraging healthy young people from getting onto cruise ships.

At the end of January, when Trump decided to quarantine people who had in the previous 14 days traveled through China, the Democrats were calling him racist. Restricting carriers traveling from foreign hot-zones before infections become widespread in this country made sense; internal/domestic lock-down "social-distancing" makes no sense whatsoever: as locking down the society while not locking down the hospitals and nursing homes only give the most deadly mutations of the genetically unstable RNA virus an evolutionary advantage over the more benign mutations that don't send people into hospitals (where the virus would have more opportunity to spread than would be in a locked-down society). Not to mention, a lock-down has no Constitutional basis whatsoever: an eminent domain taking would require government to compensate the locked-down businesses and individuals at fair-market value for losses. They are using the fuzzy word "social-distancing" as a way to wiggle out of the Unconstitutional nature of those lock-down orders.

Ok so Leftists wanna peg this as the “Trump Virus” because somehow it’s his fault... somehow. Well that might be hard to prove but what is known is that chloroquine is now known as “Trump pills” so he’s the cure, bitches! Take your #Trumppills and live to sky scream another day!

HEYYOU says

Dumb fucks are gonna learn today.
It's not capitalism when it can only survive with bailouts,massive debt & fiat currency printing
and when it is hit hard & $Trillions from thin air that is handed out to businesses & the unemployed.
Socialized Capitalism!

Dumb ducks are now sitting focusing on Trump day and night because left wing media gave them TDS.

Everyone else is figuring it out.

The dems really screwed the pooch on this one. Instead of screaming racism and xenophobia, they should have just said "too little too late" and they could have marched to the victory line. You can't rewrite history now. Trump was late on his prudent decisions, and the dems would have delayed those decisions further if they got their way.

That's why Leftists defend the Deep State, they love the unelected bureaucratic resistance to the Executive.

I think the thing that is overlooked in this whole discussion is how badly China screwed the whole world over. They lied about the death rates, human to human transmission, origin of the virus. Even allowing US researchers in to study was cut off. And then as an extra fuck you, they bought up the worlds supply of ppe.

So then this thing comes roaring out of Asia, hits Italy and the world has a shit their pants moment. Understandably, a lot of countries took very aggressive measures because we had 0 info we could rely on from China.

Now that we’ve dealt with it longer, we see there are better alternatives to dealing with this situation because this lockdown cannot continue past April.

We know that with testing, reasonable social distancing measures, ppe for medical personal, isolation of vulnerable population, and maybe a few Trump Pills, this virus can be controlled. It’s not even a debate, many countries have done it at this point.

Unfortunately, once Trump makes this call, all we’re going to see from that day until November is a running tally of every person that has died of corona laid at Trumps feet. It’s dumb and partisan and unfortunately, the reality of the Shit Sandwich we need to eat right now is to nuanced to explain to scared soccer moms.

Social distancing is not designed to save lives. It is designed so that hospitals do not get overrun. This is a global pandemic. Absent a vaccine, which is unlikely to ever be developed, this virus will continue until most people have had it and either lived or died. So the only question we should be asking ourselves about policy decisions we are considering is if hospitals will be overwhelmed if we don’t limit some activity. Outside of canceling concerts, theme parks, and cruises, I don’t see why we can’t all go back to work after taking some reasonable precautions like wearing a mask.

Who gives a shit. All you need is to test a well distributed small fraction of the population to find out many already caught it and developed immunity which drops the lethality to that of influenza and the you can reopen the country like Denmark is doing.

*Trumpists* are mad that Fauci tells the truth.

ThreeBays says

Really I don't think this should be politicized. It's easy to say with hindsight that earlier would have been better, and another thing to make decisions with limited data.

OP and comment 1. Unedited. I have no interest in looking up your previous history here, as I do think you're a long timer. But it's pretty clear you're trolling on this topic now. You contradict yourself before you've even let anyone else comment. What was the point of the post and the above comment?

You make all previous comments basically null in my mind by posting this. You've attempted, with little to no success, to show that this virus is some awful thing. It's not and won't be besides the economic hit we're going to take.

This is what is dangerous and what people should be trying to prevent: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/nursing-homes-deaths-soar-past-2600-in-alarming-surge

Instead we shut everyone down that can handle the flu, even if it's an extreme version for people that are actually symptomatic. There's no disputing this. 70-80% of the entire population is more likely to die from dozens of other things versus Covid at an exponential level.

Again, not one logical argument has been brought forward as to why we just don't shut down the old and weak and stop visiting them instead of what's going on now.

This virus makes Trump’s ass look fat.

Top notch comment. Kudos.

I'll let another moderator take care of this. I'm not certain what in my comment was personal or should have been flagged. At some point the poster of a topic is the topic when they blatantly contradict themselves. Note I have not addressed a user in this comment.

I hope you're posting this in jest? While it is funny admittedly, if this virus is the real deal, this has nothing to do with politics. You may not be doing this, but not sure why people are trying to politicize this when it's sooooooooo "serious" and deadly. Makes one wonder....

That's a nasty question. You're very nasty. I've always said this was a giant hoax, that we should take very seriously.

No one flag this comment (unlike the other one that got flagged of mine for no reason). I want it to just sit here. The hypocrisy is astounding. I love it.

Looks like Fauci might be getting fired. We're all about to die. Dear God.... our fearless, dry mouth scientist won't be able to lead us anymore.

Stop being logical and using your brain. We have 114,000 dead worldwide right now of which 100k would have likely died in that same time span.... But hey, shut the world down.

Where are the Patrick Henrys? where are the FDRs? Who will stand up open their doors and businesses and put this Chinese virus and those exploiting it to promote fear and fascism behind us?

marcus says

Did his IQ just jump up to average or so ? What did he do ? He must have some new handlers, making sure he gets his B-12 and enough sleep, or something. Because he really was not sounding like his usual self.

I don’t understand what public speaking has to do with intelligence level.

Please explain.

I think he is the guy that needs to rewrite Public Speaking. All he has to do is say a few words, and every crooked, fraudulent guilty cock sucker in the world pipes in and starts admitting every crime they broke. While they break 10 more trying to collude with foreign countries to take him down.

Only a Chinese shill could get things so terribly wrong while thinking he’s being clever.
First, evangelicals never have and never would embrace ANY president as a messiah. It’s against the Christian faith to do so.
Second, God didn’t send this plague.
CHINA created it!

It's hardly a plague, more of a boomer-remover. Fail.
