    Willis is a speaker of truth, a journalist.

    Thus it is logical and expected that he would be vilified and censored in this time of universal deception.

    Trump is not out of office yet, and the numbers you refer to are generated by a test not designed as a diagnostic test. Keep in mind that hypochondria is part of the human condition for some segment of the population.

    It's as if they prefer the spirit of strife and chaos to that of tranquility and peace. Thus further ensuring the containment of the peaceable, and liberty to the lawless....it would seem. In other words, you are free to like it or not.

    He probably meant as a means to oust him. Now it is morphing into the means to oust liberty. But Trumps vaccine is upon us. So perhaps tyranny will be frustrated, and the lack of its necessity regretted. Fret not, there is always the next thing.

    Well this is the type of things that come from conforming to lesser but just as stupid restrictions ;) That's how conditioning works little very subtle commands until the ridiculous is considered common place/practice..

    did you read this part of the article?

    Anyone over the age of 16 traveling into L.A. must complete an online form upon arrival to acknowledge they’ve read and understood a California travel advisory. Failure to submit the form is punishable by a fine of up to $500.

    it becomes much clearer. This is a power and money grab. Does the behavior of Democrats shock anyone?

    "Covid, Covid, Covid, Covid.' By the way, on November 4, you won't hear about it anymore,"

    "Covid, Covid, Covid, Covid.' By the way, on November 4, you won't hear about it anymore,". Honestly, if a democrat made an argument like you just did, would you buy it?

    Of course. I stated it. Do you deny that covid as a means of ousting Trump has vanished?

    I have no idea what you're trying to argue. Trump said that we wouldn't hear about Covid any more after the election. Covid continues to be a major source of news. What have I missed that exonerates Trump from making crap up?

    Trump is not clued into the Great Reset that the globalist monsters are planning (they want to use Covid as a cover). This in plain words would be an annihilation of the Western middle class with their resources diverted towards the 3rd world and the globalist elite. When they speak of "equitable outcomes" they are talking about taking from the middle class, NOT THEMSELVES.

    He made up nothing. First, his informed opinion was that covid as a means of ousting him will wither in large degree by either his victory or ousting. Second, with a couple of vaccines progressing at breakneck speeds, targeted to come to market by now, covid as an unmanageable threat would further be rendered moot. And lastly, it was simply an expression of optimism in the face of a vicious, relentless liberal media. I know the left is loathe to give credit where it is due to Trump. But he spoke true. And still you call it make believe in spite of reality or the meaning of his words.

    I honestly thought this would be indefensible. How you get from "By the way, on November 4, you won't hear about it anymore" to what you wrote is mind-boggling. Why take his words at face value when you can construct a whole other story around it... Well, having learned from past experience here, I'm going to bow out now rather than beat my head against a brick wall. I will just observe - it is incoherent to suggest people might use Covid to oust him after he had already been ousted.

    Sure they do, but they do it from home and if that is not possible, Govt steps in with assistance if they are unable to work due to the nasty.

    Still not a very good argument.
    You know as well as I do that most places that had the strictest restrictions in the past still have much stricter restrictions at this time than other places.

    Really, I guess that is why now, down here, most, if not all, restrictions have been lifted.

    No, I didn't know that. Have you got some good examples?

    from my observation countries and regions have gone through very dramatic changes in terms of strictness, including but not limited to the US. I think the difference with Australia (compared to those countries that haven't gone so well) is that our politicians are less corrupt and the population is more willing to make a temporary sacrifice.

    in fairness we have a closed border surrounded by sea as well, so complete elimination is a possibility ( if we can get our quarantine right)
