Yes of course I know that. But didn't you indicate Trump supporters as idiots. I have supported Trump's policies from day one and will vote for him in 2020. But that does not mean for a minute that I support everything the man does and says. Just as I hope you don't support everything that Schumer and Pelosi say such as giving 25 Million dollars to the Kennedy Center as part of a stimulus package for health care to Americans.

President Trump HAS done great things for America whether you want to admit that or not. I have done the list part too many times now for Liberals who have never once answered me back so I won't waste my time again doing it. Yes he is not perfect but at least he is not like every other typical President politician who will take years to kiss enough ass to get things done or debate endlessly on getting a job done. He is a pragmatic businessman who sees the need to take action and then does it. I would take him any day compared to the normal McConnell-Graham-Schumer-Pelosi year after year debating things such as illegal immigration that has been debated with not one decision made in 40 years. If nothing else then simply enforce existing law. And yet Liberals are against enforcing existing law. Strange, huh?

Be well,

Dennis

Donald Trump is a miserable excuse for a human being. Full stop; I’m out of here.

Abortions are voluntary - look at any Conservative and tell me there is "no outrage".


I cannot believe a single aborted baby volunteered..... Even people notorious for being WAY to the left have effectively admitted that the unborn are people. Hillary Clinton announced that she and Bill had a new grandCHILD that would be born 'this summer' back in January 2019. That was well before the 20 week mark of Chelsea's pregnancy..... And my favorite, as it says it all, and says it well, is Dave Chappelle who famously harpooned the 'not a baby' argument in a stand-up routine about deadbeat dads. The character in in his tale says "If she can kill it, surely I can abandon it."

When you get your mail are you 100% positive it has not been touched by someone who carries the virus germs on their fingers? How about when groceries or anything else has been delivered. Gas pump handles, anything at all you or yours might touch?

Vehicle accidents are avoidable too IF you spend 100% of your time in the house. Well unless a vehicle driven by a drunk driver crashes into your home. Sounds to me as if you will pretty much live forever except for heart attack, cancer, and so on.

Gosh darn I would hate to live my life like that just to stay alive.

The virus has a very limited life on surfaces.

I help medical personal by staying home.

This will change - but not yet.

I am helping medical personnel also.

I have friends who work in that field,
and every additional patient adds to their loads,
both their physical load and their emotional load.

My friend that would be equivalent to me helping keep the air clean of smog by being a non smoker.

Police and corrections staff thank me daily because I haven't broken any laws. Banks thank me for not being a bank robber and so on.

I am sure medical personnel the world over thank you. I thank you too.

“Those” are the idiots who were listening to Trump in January and February as he ignored the problem, and can not get his denials out of their minds.


Are you paying attention? On Jan 31 Pres. Trump signed the travel ban to be effective February 2.

... Where is the panic about the annual flu deaths that outnumber this by many thousands? I apologize. I get carried away with the "liberal" nonsense.

That is fake news. The number of Covid-19 deaths in the US for a 2 month period is twice the number of flu deaths for the 2018-2019 flu season (an 8-month period).

Covid-19 deaths in the US have topped 44,000 in a couple months WITH social distancing. The flu has never decimated cruise ships and nursing homes. This is in no way a liberal vs. conservative issue.


Decimated. One of the most misused words in the English language. Means to reduce by 1/10th.
Someone said her business was down to "a fraction". What fraction? 1/3rd, 1/85th?

Why do conservatives never acknowledge their own "nonsense"? Oh, that's right, they are PERFECT.


The only positive aspect of this situation is that the right-wing conservative sector of our society is very likely to be significantly reduced. The unfortunate part of this issue being that they will cause the deaths of those not a part of their ideology.

How do you balance your attitude mentioned here with the democrats support and approval of the deaths of millions of babies through abortion?

It can infect Trump supporting Republicans as well as individuals of any other persuasion.
It can even kill those foreigners across the pond.

Travel here from China was not “halted.” That seems to be deflection of blame, propaganda as it were. Over 40,000 people came here relatively in a short time after the supposed ban. While some restrictions were put in place, it was by no means the ban that certain politicians would like us to believe it was - in order to make us believe prompt and decisive action was promptly taken. Not so.
Most of the COVID brought here to the East Coast appears to have been brought here by folks from England. That was sort of a last minute thing to put some restrictions on England. That was, as you may recall, done after the rest, or nearly the rest, of Europe had restrictions on coming here. Why was England the last Country affected at that period?
