    Yeah, sure. You mean Trump, the one who called it the KungFlu? The one who said it would disappear like a miracle. The one who said it would be gone by last summer? You mean the one who called COVID-19 a hoax? You mean the one who said it was a Democrat plot to ruin his Presidency?

    Or did you mean your post to be facetious and sarcasm?

    99.99999% of them is a rough estimate. :)

    I meant it to be the truth. I don't care what Trump said, he laid the ground work for the fight and led the logistics at the beginning. No governor asked for anything that Trump didn't bust his hump to provide for them. The fast track program for vaccines and the distribution plan are still being followed today by Biden as he rides to the rescue on his white charger.

    Trump hasn't done crap. He's all about his ego, that's all. He raised $250,000,000 to fight the election that he legitimately lost. Biden is senile, Trump is a pscho/socio-path.

    That isn't what aboutism, that's just placing blame where it belongs. Democrats were not held accountable by the media and they did absolutely nothing to help the problems we faced. To them the only problem was Trump was President.

    Nice skit. The labors of the Trump administration to contain and eradicate the virus and mitigate its effects on our economy and people are extensive and at odds with the spirit of your post which is a conglomeration of out of context offhand remarks. In other words, if he is such a failure, why is he such a success. One cannot be a four year, 24/7 failure while simultaneously being a four year 24/7 success unless one only hears what the anti Trump media tells them, while ignoring everything else.

    FOX news, especially Tucker Carlson, held the Democrats accountable every day and every night. Totally negative.

    Perhaps I wasn’t clear. The poster to whom I was responding was saying that they did it first.

    So I'm guessing you believe you have a strong immune system? And how would you know that? Because you've been sick and recovered?

    So? Testing positive (per an inaccurate test) does not mean that one is even infected with covid at that moment (or that they ever were, for that matter). Having a small bit of covid deep inside one's nasal cavities does not mean that one's cause of death was covid... The hoax is further explained below:

    Yes.

    Because I hardly ever get sick, I get milder symptoms when I do get sick, and I take good care of my immune system.

    Just wondering: How does one take care of one's immune system? I would like to know, because I'd also like to never get sick.

    It's not about never getting sick; it's about rarely getting sick (and milder symptoms whenever one does happen to get sick).

    How does one take care of their immune system? Vitamin D3 is good for this. One can either get it naturally from sunlight during the warmer Summer (and Spring/Fall to some extent) months or they can take a D3 supplement (especially handy during the colder Winter months when there isn't much sunlight). Getting outside and exercising is good for it as well, and so is keeping one's stress at lower levels. Getting adequate sleep is good for it too (the amount of sleep required varies from person to person). Those are just a few things one can do.
