Do nothing! You mean like shut off travel from China once he heard what was going on? The fact that the liberal Democrats made fun of him and called him names. The same Democrats who say he did nothing? I’m not saying he made all the right choices but he did try to curb this thing early.
yeah. but TDS keeps any dem from giving him credit for any correct decision.

the plain truth is the vast majority of those who died from covid , while tragic , very likely were gonna die anyhow , from most any bug they might have caught . wether it be flu or even just a common cold.

funny how we heard nothing throughout this year about the common bugs that generally kill each year.


I would like to see the total U.S. death numbers for this year compared to ................. let's say the past 5 years or so.
how many deaths from violence? auto colliions? simple accidents?...................?............................?............................?
be curious to see how they compare. but it is a safe bet you will never see such a report from fake news! that would require some actual digging for truth.



I am no virologist but this sounds promising and goes a ways towards proving how foolish all the lockdowns were.

Not to minimize the situation at all, but it was just reported that so far in 2020 the overdose deaths in San Francisco have been three times the Covid/China virus deaths. It would be even higher if not for the 2,500 or so Narcan "saves".

we will never know but I wonder how many of those might have been saved if it wasn't for ridiculous lockdowns???


by using gr8s logic .......guess san frans mayor cares nothing about the citizens , inaction killed em all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this of coarse ,is a joke but it IS exactly the way liberals act when blaming all covid deaths on trump.

I hope the stimulus package fails .

it is not the function of government to provide it's citizens all they need.
the first and foremost function /purpose of any government in a free society is to protect it's citizens from those who would steal what they already have .
any vote for the left is a vote for a government that is the exact opposite of what governments were formed to do.
by doing so ,one is voting for the government to become the very thing it was established to prevent!

I do not need or want paltry government handouts .
1. they are offered only with the intention to put me in bondage!
2. I am capable of providing for my own existence and doan need no steenking handouts!!!!!!
IN my entire life , I have never once failed to pay a bill on time . there have been times it was a struggle but not once did I fail to do it.
BECAUSE I sacrifice , WHEN necessary!!!!
can't pa yer bills?

cancel your tv package, get off the couch and go out and get a job! lay off da booze, cigarettes , drugs , starbucks,gambling,.............................. !!
tighten yer belt . push yourselves off the feed trough. let's face it ,there aren't many americans who wouldn't benefit from missing a meal or twenty.


I understand there is an incredibly small percentage of our population who are unable to work because of health or some disability that prevents the possibility .

very few are in this category and we already have plenty of programs for them anyhow!!!!!!
for the rest of ya , STOP PLAYING THE VICTIM !!!!!!!!!!!!!
stop feeling sorry for yourselves and get off yer duffs!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry I don't agree. Business's are closed and people are out of work not by their own choosing. How is a chef or waiter supposed to get a job when all the eateries are closed? Maybe we shouldn't just give the $$$ to them, maybe a loan? But something needs to be done. Just look at the unemployment numbers, which are going up every week. This stuff snowballs.

Some of can help for sure, in fact lots are helping. My wife and I donated the last $$$ we received to a local food bank and Navajo assistance.

everybody says something needs to be done . right before they vote to do it with someone elses money!


they should do like people throughout history had to do.
if no jobs available in their profession , find a new profession . if no jobs in your area go where there are jobs available .
sure one may take a salary hit for awhile(that is where the belt tightening and sacrifice comes in) but there IS work to be had , it is just that most would rather be taken care of then work.

everyone has the right to pursue happiness but it is not the function of government to PROVIDE it for them!
for those who think "something " must be done , go out and do it, with your OWN sweat and money !!! no one is stopping you. it is not right for the needs of the many to outweigh the rights of the one!!!!!
THAT is the logical way of doing it anyhow.

for hells sake, many are making more unemployed during this pandemic then they did while working.

this is not logical! nor is it sustainable!


a loan would be a much better choice then a handout. at east that provides some motivation to actually try .

does any one else find it fascinating that now that the elections past and everyone thinks trumps out , there are suddenly vaccines everywhere ??????

we have two , russias got one, chinas got one, wonder how many more will "miraculously " appear in the next few weeks.

methinks the vaccines have been waiting in the wings since long before this pandemic was first, purposely unleashed ,on the world.

Trump always said that we would have a vaccine by Christmas but the dim whit libs said that there was no way. These are the same libs that said that they wouldn't get a vaccine if Trump said to, they are now all lining up claiming that they are essential workers and want to get it first before anyone else.

I’m not sure if the vaccine was created before the virus was released from China, however we do know for a fact that Pfizer withheld the vaccine release until after the election for several long weeks. This was actually in print and verified. I think this company should be held liable by the families of those who suffered and those families should reap the reward.

as a business owner, this has been a interesting time. When i was first told about covid 19 in january, i laughed. man was i wrong.

So the government shuts me down for 6 weeks and then says here is a loan or ppp. So great, you shut me down and then make it worse by having me owe you money now? fun fun. The demand for goods is higher than i have ever seen it, yet the supply for goods is the worse i have ever seen it. it is truly a roller coaster year, with no real end in sight, the world will not be cured over night with the vaccinne. it will take time to distribute, ect.

The truly hard part for this business owner who has a degree in economics is: This was a government caused recession. Should the government be responsible for getting us out of this recession or should it be up the people? We are not a manufacturing economy but a consumption economy. I don't know the answers but i do know if you are not in the military, no president has ever dictated your quality of life, you do. Presidents come and go, you don't. People need to stop worrying about who is president and worry about there own lifes.
there sure is alot of sore winners and pore loosers that is for sure. Anyway 2020 will go down as the best year in sales ever for our company.

2021 will be an interesting year that is for sure. Trying to forcast for orders is tough. If you want a sofa from me, and i don't have it in stock. It will take 6 months, to build it and ship it to me. And that is made in the USA products. Over seas goods are a little quicker and there is a big ocean in the way. go figure.

NO they should not! all who voted yes really should be executed as the
thieves and traitors to this nation that they are . imho. for those who disagree don't worry ,it'll never happen, I am fully aware of this.




the thing most people have a hard time understanding is if the government bails out the businesses ,IT is the people who are doing the bailing! we get screwed either way!


IT IS NOT THIER MONEY TO GIVE!!!!!!!!!!

live and let live and don't worry about others.

that has nothing to do with the ROOT of anything.
to be perfectly frank , if you are voting to steal money from me or my loved ones wallet to give to those whose very existence I disaprove of ....................

YOU ARE THE ENEMY !
to continue being honest , for those who do such things , I would prefer they either dropped dead or struggled on by their own means . they are not worthy of my sympathy nor my help.

if you want to help them , kudos to you .git-r-dun! just don't steal from me to do it.
do this and I will happily live and let live!

live and let live is great . till others poor choices affects you personally with people actively voting to steal your money to give to those , who frankly, for the most part , made poor choices . sure there are some who fall on hard times through no particular fault of their own. there was a time ,when these things happened folks turned to friends and loved ones for help.

there was a time they actually ASKED for help , now they DEMAND it! and not even a thank you!
once assistance is received the first thing they do is DEMAND more!

I am all for charity but only IF I get to decide who gets my charity ! my last gov handout went to a person I chose . who I determined to be worthy of the gift . government just gives to any poor loser . heck they even want to give away millions to folks who aren't even citizens of this nation, this is NOT right.

government mandated charity is not only wrong it is wasteful and mostly ineffective.

seriously is this $600.00 or $2000 a year really going to change any ones circumstances much anyhow ???
if this is the difference in paying or not paying their bills how hard could it be to find a job that would pay such a paltry sum???????????????

I very well may have had it back in Oct; 2 neg COVID tests, plus a pile of other negative tests and one scary night in the hospital-thought I was having a stroke; ran fever and excruciating headache for nearly 10 days; needed all kinds of doctor notes to be allowed back to work once it passed. 2 false negs? Unlikely with 2 different tests; but I had something-no one denies that. Only the 2nd time in my life I've been hospitalized.

Would like to see what an antigen test yields on me? if I had it, may think twice about the vax; unless work makes me get it...

I had a professional meeting today, there was 4 of us. This one lady walked in with her Biden\Harris pin on. I will be the first to admit, I don't like that pin, but she is a lady that is good at what she does and is a damn good person, with different politics than mine. She is not my enemy, Far from it. I don't like her politics, she don;t like mine. But we are not enemies, People can and should put politics aside and learn from both sides. Both sides have lots of merit. Both sides have lots of faults. One reason, I do not belong to a political party.

Fellow Americans are not enemies, there is enough hatred out there. And yes, i do know, both sides hate each other.

Yes, there are good people on both sides (I even have a friend who voted for the other guy) but the party leaders on the right are generally incompetent and the ones on the left are insane at best, anti-American socialists at worst. Hard to not see someone who supports the very things you are against as anything but an enemy...and it is damn hard to see any common ground these days.
Seems every one of the swamp creatures has been doing everything possible to make political hay out of this virus. The pandering on both sides and pork in this spending bill are disgusting.
I do not believe in any virus/vaccine conspiracy, I think it will likely go down as one of medical sciences greatest triumphs on putting this out so quickly - and a huge accomplishment for the President who was pushing hard for it all year but I don’t expect him to get much credit.

like it or not some of them are . burying ones head in the sand and ignoring it won't change that.
coarse speaking up won't either .
there were good people on both sides back in the days of the civil war also. didn't keep folks from fighting a necessary war though. the real tragedy from that conflict is , the wrong side won. had it been otherwise ,we "probably" wouldn't be a socialist nation now. that war determined the states are the feds bitches. it is when the constitution truly died.



hate the sin not the man. yup ,I get that. even agree with it. they will get what's coming to em in the end ,same as will we all .

but live and let live is ridiculous. when I see folks doing things that harm me, my loved ones or this nation , I am going to call them on it. when I see folks embrace what I see as evil, they are my enemies . there is no common ground to be found and I have zero desire to pretend otherwise.
there is nothing to be learned from a democrat. it is not that they know nothing . it is just that they know so much that is not so. yes , I can acknowledge same can be said of republicans.

to call evil, evil ,need not be political. there is plenty all the way round.

the hearts of all men are evil.
at least I am honest about it.[/QUOTE]

most are just to dumb to understand what they are supporting. and to cowardly to face the thought that such evil exists.

when anothers beliefs directly conflict with your own there simply can be no communion between the two.
good does not fraternize with evil and evil does not fraternize with good. we tolerate it, because there is no real choice but to do so but that doesn't mean we must fraternize with it.
nor should it be otherwise. this is simply the nature of things.
I am all for communicating in the hope of changing ones mind . but minds are very seldom changed


very few will ever believe in any conspiracy. to do so one must confront how powerless they are. few can handle that idea.
it is just the way it is .

the U.S was a great experiment . the results are in. it will soon fall. it is inevitable .

no nation of diverse ideas can survive for long.

wishing it were otherwise does not change that it is so!



regardless what I want , it looks like folks are gonna get the handouts they so crave!

I wonder where these money tress grow???????????????????
