    Trump sends old people to Guantanamo for making him look bad

    https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-covid-guantanamo-bay-book-1186903/

    Trumpers go ahead, let's see you excuse this. I know you're all gonna say it's fake but something like a hundred people back it up

    I mean, old people save up for these cruises all their lives, and then Trump sends them to GUANTANAMO when they get sick?

    WHY do Republicans HATE the elderly so? They want to make it so they can't vote and they've tried to cancel their healthcare, then Trump was laying plans to cancel Social Security if he got into office again

    https://www.statesman.com/story/new...ermanently-deplete-social-security/113871216/

    Trump may be gone, but he may be back, and old people remain a target of Republicans anyway.

    The elderly need to realize they have no friends in Republicans. No vulnerable person ever does

    That's a good one. Such fear over a former president. Amazing.

    My fear is for older Americans if Republicans get back into power. Trump in particular

    You think Trump would have voluntarily went to Guantanamo after he got sick?

    I'm an old man and I have never feared Trump or republicans. Why would I? What I fear is oversized government and loss of freedom. Most old people that I know feel the same things.

    Most old people I know are not wealthy enough that the loss of their Social Security would be inconsequential, nor are they able to maintain such comprehensive healthcare coverage that the loss of the government component would not be noticed most severely. Republicans have threatened both these things at one time or another and will likely do so again since it is a stated and ongoing policy of theirs. You seem fortunate enough that you are considerably wealthy, not all older Americans are so blessed.

    So Donald Trump wanted to bring infected Americans home but place them in isolation so they didn't infect everyone else. And you think this is a BAD thing?

    And thousands of people are hollering about CRT being taught in our schools. Including teachers and students. Yet I'll bet you think its fake?....

    You know that it is completely in Trump's character that he would think of himself and his re-election success first, before he thinks about the consequences of his proposals. That exact type of thinking actually cost him the election.

    For example: More covid testing is bad, because it makes my numbers look bad.

    If he just did the right thing, without thinking about his ratings, he would have been re-elected with ease. Oh, the irony.

    Its more in character of the left to come up with a phony story about Trump just to have a story about Trump. They just can't live without him in their ratings. Just like this site.

    What cost him the election was the left running with more phony stories about the virus. Shutting down the economy for a virus with a 99% survival rate? Now its come back to bite them in the ass as they can't account for all the phony numbers. You will get a taste of it come mid-terms. They won't even go to the border because they don't want you to know whats going on. And a president who banned reporters from taking pictures or going to these border facilities?

    What goes around, comes around.

    the irony is, he actually pawed it off on Pence in the start.... but Pence was handling it well and getting all the attention, so Trump took it back over

    Trump could not stand someone else getting the attention...

    Much better to leave them in the old folks home and ensure that half the population of the home get sick and die.... amirite? Nothing in my life is more mind-boggling to me than the Democrats flooding old folks homes with Covid patients and then acting completely shocked at the results. In a sane world, the Democrat politicians responsible for this would be in prison.

    Yes, because so many Americans claim Guantanamo Bay Cuba as their home...
