    I don't understand why he thinks you won't hear any more about covid after the election. Is he basically saying that he knows Biden will win so the media won't talk about it because they have a bias towards Dems? That's how I take it.



    Surely, he doesn't think if he wins, the media will back off over his mishandling of this pandemic.

    Covid will go away after the election because the Democrat won’t cause covid anymore to damage him. That’s what I was told.

    Seriously when's the last time the MSM covered JAL 123, which went down in 1985...?

    But it’s really really stupid sarcasm

    If a plane went down killing 500 in America we’d hear about it for weeks. Instead, in reality, we’re on pace to have 1k dying a day again from Covid, and numb nuts wants to act befuddled (BIGLY confused) that it’s considered important news.

    Yeah, sorry, but Trump doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt considering he is a pathological liar.

    no...not really.

    If 500 people died in an airplane crash in America, it would be the second deadliest airline incident in American history... behind 9/11.

    It would be talked about for weeks and months, and likely years, and almost about twice as many people are dying a day from Covid right now.

    There’s really no way to spin that statement as exaggeration or sarcasm, it’s just one of the stupidest things I’ve heard in a while.

    At this point it's almost projection that Trump wishes there was a disaster to distract from the rising covid numbers.

    But it's a short distraction when his own people shoot him in the feet and get infected. They get world class treatment on taxpayer dime while everyone else is told to rough it out.

    If McConnell has his way, companies would get protected from liabilities of getting covid on the job.

    Great priorities

    He’s whining about reality of a deadly virus. He's trying his hardest to defeat this virus with the limited toolset he has - BS and lie. It's not working for him. For the US, his limited toolset has resulted in a disaster.

    225,000 Americans are definitely not losing sleep over it.

    Sarcasm has no place in the most important office on the planet. That's what's wrong with your guy. He has no sense of the job. Truth, clarity, consistency, giving and deserving respect, statesmanship, gravitas..... Dude's got no clue where he is.
