    The guy Who tells us not to touch our faces is touching his face and the left says Trump made him do it. Unreal.

    We didn’t elect Trump to babysit the world even though many other countries seem to need it.

    You're hung up on this miracle nonsense. Donald Trump removed red tape.

    Red tape? I'm posting about the common thread of how it went down.
    Donald first went on unscientifically about a miracle, than it was hydroxychloroquine.... and indeed it was all nonsense.
    Donald than switched to promoting science when the vaccine was being made.

    Biden absolutely did not follow Donalds suit. He stuck to real science all along.
    So it's sleepy Joe who removed the red tape until twittering Trump no longer could double down on his fake nonsense.
    Duh.

    You're renting about miracles which is something you cook up in your head. I'm not interested in what you imagined I'm interested in what happened.

    Most people were gonna vote against him because of the MSM and holllywood/social media.

    He was the best president we have had in a long time, far outperforming obama lol.

    Much better numbers with far less money spent.

    The thing is, it's mostly pandering with a lot of Democrats. They act all sympathetic and caring, urge everyone to follow this and follow that in terms of the pandemic (most of which I happen to agree with, BTW), then their example is "do as I say, not as I do". Pelosi, Newsome, that guy in Denver, etc etc etc. And it's not just on the pandemic things either, it's pretty much across the board. And a lot of GOP are guilty of some of that too, but at least they aren't trying to feed me sunshine and rainbows while they're doing it.

    the media only reported on what Trump did, that is all on Trump that he was not a better person

    Trump spend more in 4 years than any other president has in 4 years, that is just a fact

    Objectively incorrect, though I am not surprised.

    The media reported fake news about Trump, lying about what he said and at the best of times misrepresenting it. For instance, he never called white supremacists good people yet despite specifically saying he wasn’t talking about them the MSM reported that he did. It was in headlines all over.

    So no, they did not just report what he said or did. They reported biased lies about what he said and did and then spent hours on air discussing how disgusting it was that he said something he didnt say.

    Your inability to see this is not my fault.

    Trump spent less than Obama and had a FAR better economy. He showed just how incompetent obama was. Obama was an affirmative action president.

    huh?
    Trump put his trust in a miracle that covid would disappear.
    Trump put his trust in the use of hydroxychloroquine.
    That's not something I made up.

    The blatant hypocrisy and the idea that government can stop the virus. That's what. It's selling people a false bill of goods, and then having the audacity of saying "Trump lied/lies" and that Biden here is going to make it all better.

    Come June of 2021, when that's not the case will people finally realize "Well, we might've oversold Biden just a bit, and we might've also went overboard on the whole Trump thing."

    You don’t get it, do you?
    No government could stop the virus, but trump’s lies and self centered demagoguery made things worse and many more people died than needed to.
    That’s what the voters saw and reacted accordingly.

    lol
    Donald was selling false bills...
    Claiming it would disappear like a miracle.
    Claiming hydroxychloroquine would be it.
    Saying it was just like a flu.


    We all know you lot went in being exceptionally fanatically on forums like this, spreading these hoaxes made by Donald -Baghdad Bob- Trump.


    And yeah. Other governments took strong measurements in closing down whatever.
    It's a simple fact that those measurements made the spread of the disease nose dive.
    And it will be the governments who controle the distribution of the vaccine.
    Just amusing you're on such a denial trip now. lol

    I see you failed to include the ONLY country that could have stopped the virus from spreading around the world, CHINER! It's always odd to see the left condemn one and give the real killers a pass.. I guess hatred has it's priorities :( Maybe once Joe-joe brain bleed is in office this blatant CHINER disregard for world health will finally get the attention is deserves ¯\_(º¸º)_/¯

    Before anyone can blame Trump, they would first have to show a significantly higher rate of infection among Republicans or show that those calling him a liar made an exception and trusted his word when it came to their lives.

    Im not saying it didn't have an effect on election results; just that those using it as a main determinate in who they voted for, put zero thought into it.

    He absolutely lost because of the pandemic. His response, however flawed, made no difference though. The left and the media blamed him for the economic downturn from the lockdowns and later for every single death from the re-openings. If that is not hypocrisy I don't know what is. Of course had HC been in charged, the right would have behaved the very same. The difference of course is the media would have never cast a fellow democrat in the same light. Either way though, neither candidate would have survived this pandemic in an election year, IMO.
