    They should just give him the covid cookies tonight and put him out of his misery.
    There are plenty of Biden gaffes and there will be plenty more, this wasn’t one of them. The idea that 95% of what he says is incomprehensible will be a fun trope to watch play out and is an easy sell if you’ve already made up your mind on him.

    The bonus points go to the “this is so hard and depressing to watch” crowd, some of whom are genuine, many aren’t.

    Can you imagine him in a meeting with someone like Putin?

    He would end up giving Alaska back to Russia with the "look there, sign here" trick.

    What happens if a school refuses to play? Seems like a pretty easy solution to me - you take them off the schedule

    The day the fake 2 million dead model came out was when Trump blinked. I'd like to think I wouldn't have but his own party panicked too. And if it was right who wants to be the guy to kill 2 million Americans

    That's the past. We need to win the future

    Next week will be really bad
    I heard Experts said the #SecondWave will be deadlier than the first and will Strike Down the Young and Healthy, true?

    In my opinion, Trump has not been up to leadership task that the tims require.

    In in the Grumble Camp on this one. I've admitted here many times that I am sympathetic to some of his policy goals vis a vis China, border security and no more nation building adventures. But pandemics are just not suited to his strengths. The messaging is just too sloppy and all over the map. We need clear, calm fireside chat type stuff to calm the irrational fears and get through this shit.
    What should Trump have done that would have generated a better outcome here today May 14, 2020?
    Xenophobic travel ban on Dec 31 and lock down granny in the nursing homes.
    Not sure if serious. But in hindsight, they should have left the positive cases in the Homes and taken the healthy ones to the empty hospitals. Since it all started in a nursing home, it shouldn't have been that hard to see that.

    Heard also that if you’re Young and Healthy and enjoy a Young and Healthy Lifestyle? Kiss it goodbye if you catch Vid. It ravages your lungs and you Never heal.

    Not enough hospitals. Lots more nursing homes than hospitals.
