    The only consistent and defining qualification for today's Republican is unfailing and unyielding loyalty to trump.

    What could be more dismissive of the virus than thousands of protesters ignoring the social distancing nonsense that you've been espousing for months?

    Except they're not doing everything possible. They are brazenly ignoring the social distancing strategy you believe is so important to slowing the spread of the virus.

    Your total lack of outrage over their refusal to abide by social distancing is a glaring hypocrisy that you cannot possibly explain away no matter how hard you try.

    Except that you would need to find proof that I was outraged by others refusing to abide by social distancing in order to establish that I engaged in any sort of hypocrisy. The protesters are taking a risk, one of which the vast majority of them are exceptionally aware, in order to express their frustration to seek reforms to an issue that has existed for far longer than this virus and will almost continue to exist long after the virus becomes another seasonal issue for which we take vaccines.

    But allow me to flip the script - you do not believe that social distancing is important to spreading the virus, right? You do not even appear to believe that this virus is a serious threat. So why the **** do you care if these protesters are engaged in social distancing or not? I believe your interest in that aspect is solely because you believe it provides an opportunity to distract from the 110,000+ dead Americans by talking about perceived hypocrisy.

    The one-third who think they are "conservative constitutionalists" are in fact big government progress right wing fascists.

    Says the people who have killed more innocent people in 6 days than the police do in a year.

    Keep burning your own shitholes down. We don't care.

    Step across into areas we live, and the racial unity we'll repel you with will spin your little beanie.

    LoL, "new records".

    1700 deaths total so far.

    Which is half the number of deaths from alcoholism in Texas.

    If you cared about saving lives, you'd be lobbying for the abolition of beer.

    What people are those ? What racial unity ? Segregation ?

    Dirty Donnie and his supporters are responsible for 110,000 American deaths due to incompetence and blind faith. And the year isn't over yet.

    5 Long months until the election. What will be the next episode? Doesn't have to be a big one, the media can make it big!

    If you want to get your panties in a bunch about alcoholism in Texas, feel free.

    But you do not need me to explain that alcoholism is not a contagious virus and that 1700 deaths after two months is not a laughing matter.

    ...you appear to be suggesting that you would not mind another pandemic which kills 100,000+ Americans in two months

    100,000 is way lower than what the "experts told us it would be. George Floyd, a druggie with a criminal record was wrongfully murdered and while the masses and media worship him, little has been said in the media about the innocent shop owners,(many of who are minority), and brave officers suffer their life savings , physical damage and even death. We don't hear about them.....because there is an agenda to all the media driven madness. And it is political! BLM and ANTIFA are political tools in an election year. China gave us a virus, the media made it worse than it was. When an illegal immigrant shot an innocent white girl, it was barely reported, contrast that with the media attention given to a man that had O.D. levels of an illicit drug while passing off counterfeit bills and you wonder.....why the lopsided media attention?

    My point is....there is something far greater going o here than the China Virus. After a 3 year failed Coup attempt Trump has remained undaunted as a leader. We will get past the China Virus and the riots. I just commented there will be more to come. It has been pointed out the Weatherman Underground coined the phrase "Resist" back in the late 60's and the Democrat Party adopted it openly after the 2016 election. It is a common "Marxist" thread running this whole thing. We will see more before November. Then after Trump is re elected it will get real interesting!

    We don't know what the Trump virus will do.

    We do know that Trump will continue to divide us.

    "Resist" is what the GOP did from 2009 to 2016, so get off your hobby horse. :)

    When Trump is defeated, the responsible right to responsible left will be more than willing to take on the Trumpers if necessary.

    The only thing you're effectively resisting is reality.

    Clowns everywhere.

    If you really believed it was killing droves of people in Red states, you'd be celebrating.

    As you well know, it's not really that many people, certainly not going to make any difference in the overall population numbers.
