    0.27% because math...

    But 0.2% would make this virus twice as lethal as the seasonal flu.

    Have a friend that found out she had China Virus when she didn't know it. Now she has the anti viral properties. Factor into your numbers all the many thousands of those like her and you get a much lower #. But leftists don't want to hear that 'cause they blame it all on Trump anyway. Collusion failed.

    Did anyone see the opening with the National Anthem? Someone got some new editing software for Christmas and decided to copy the opening theme to the Brady Brunch

    The 0.27% estimate assumes that the reported covid-19 infection numbers are 10x too low.

    But righties don't want to hear that **** because they can only praise trump.

    Yup.

    The 2 moments of the night.

    Biden needs to produce a campaign using the Urquiza Quote ASAP.

    So I see..it's a guess, and because those bureaucrats in high left wing authority say it, we should always believe and bow to them.....at least until Donald Trump is defeated. I'm not buying it. Personally I use sound judgement, have been all over the country in the last two months, and refuse to walk in leftist induced fear.

    I'm sorry, so Trump personally infected someone with Covid? Wait, no Urquiza's 65 year old dad made a choice to go a bar because he was tired of sitting at home. People's personal choices are not Trump's problem. It looks pathetically ignorant to say otherwise.

    I feel really confident in saying that the issue here is that her dad trusted Trump when he said the virus was "under control" and that it was safe to "end social distancing." In fact, let's just watch her say it again:

    Yeah, Urquiza was one of the dumber "testimonials against Trump".
    It's almost like Democrats don't have a candidate to be for.

    There were dozens of references to Biden being someone who cares about people, who has a history of working to represent others, and to work with the other side to handle crisis like ebola or the great recession.

    Biden participated in a discussion with individuals worried about racial injustice and engaged with them on how to improve the situation.

    Why? Did MSNBC edit it and make it beneficial to Democrats somehow? I mean, is it new and improved, since you posted it 22 minutes ago at post #166?

    If they didn't edit it, it's still just as dumb 22 minutes later as it was 22 minutes earlier.

    Dont forget "Trump is targeting democrats, he's not sending anyone to Republican run cities!"
    Newsflash-the rioting and looting over many weeks was in blue cities.

    No. I didn't miss that. That's not Biden's total reputation in Washington, but that's okay. The Dem Convention is intended to be completely biased. I'm sure the GOP convention will also bias toward Trump, as it would be stupid not to, hopefully in a more fun and entertaining way. DNC would be really off base if they couldn't scrape up a few nice things to say about their candidate. Just seems like they mentioned Trump's name a lot more than Biden's name at a Biden convention (which is actually good for Trump).

    I couldn't help but notice that you can't bring yourself to call it by its proper name (Democratic). It is really something, this pathological hatred you Trump RINOs have developed for the Democrats in recent times. You'll notice that, by and large, Democrats do not sink to that level, even with Trump constantly baiting them and speaking and behaving like an overgrown child.

    Relevant:



    It is also relevant to note that the first night of the DNC included at least four GOP officials.

    It happened by leftists, and facilitated by blue state governors and mayors.

    You are free to credit Trump for all things good and blame everyone else for all things bad.

    But like I said, I just find it really strange to watch the Trump campaign and his defenders use footage of **** that happened during his Presidency and then make the claim that he bears no responsibility for those shitty things or that those shitty things will not happen again during another term of his presidency.
