President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

I think doctors have a much better understanding of the peanut than they do of COVID-19, which was only identified a year ago. Do better with your comparisons.

 

This is true, but it was an error that could have been fixed if not for President Trump's leadership in the wrong direction.

 

If I recall correctly, there also was debate about whether masks truly were effective — especially since we didn’t think COVID was as widespread as it was. It didn’t magically enter the country in February once those folks got off the cruise ship, given all the travel it was probably here in early January at the latest.

 

That can be the case. But that doesn't mean it's impossible for them to lie. And Fauci has openly admitted to such lying.

A link would be great right about now.

 

Now, really, does this look like the face of a man
hell-bent on destroying the republic? ... Hell yeah it does.

 

Rubio's been making stuff up since his boy Guaidó tried to become president of Venezuela.

I agree. That's why I said "No, it doesn't" when Starman said basically what you just said.

As in, "No, it doesn't mean the scientist was lying."

 

How Much Herd Immunity Is Enough?

This is not surprising. It's been obvious he's doing things like this all along, and it's fundamentally his job to do things like this. While his training may be as a scientist, his day job has been as a politician and it has been for quite some time. It is his job to influence behavior.

The right has been attacking him so we *must* defend him, because the left only defines itself by "not the right" these days.

I'm not even saying he's wrong to do it. He's got a tough job trying to herd the cats in America, and apparently he thought this was necessary. But it is what he has done.

 

It is not his job to lie, and he shouldn’t be.
