  1. Was waiting for a Hitler reference. It’s usually the go-to for people like you. Play fast and loose with the Holocaust. How noble of you. So ask your brother-in-law what he feels about the speed of this vaccine development. Ask him if this could happen without administration help. Ask him if the decision to build out manufacturing capability alongside development is something his old pharma company would do on their own. Ask him where the SARS vaccine is if you say any administration would have achieved this milestone this fast. It’s not quite apples to apples but he will understand the point. Ask him if any President knows much of anything about actual medicine. ( hint they don’t) but they do know and learn about process. Ask him if today’s news is one possible reason pharma execs despise Trump. Ask him what private practice doctors actually think about Obamacare. My experience says any CEO mostly likes or dislikes a politician based on the politician views of the industry the CEO works in. if he really was the CEO of a Major Pharma company, ask him how many people he laid off during mergers and acquisitions of other smaller pharma companies and what his parachute was when he left? he’s also currently wasting his time devoting every fiber in his being to defeat Trump. Trump already lost.
  2. Given historical precedent, we will need multiple house and senate investigations, for the next two years and find out what Joe knows, if he’s involved, what contact he had with his son right.
  3. You ask what’s wrong with me??? For posting a tweet from a Washington Post reporter! Not exactly a Trump safe space. What the hell is wrong with you that you get so triggered for that? Oh, look..no matter your opinion of all other Covid related issues and Trump Admin, the Vaccine program is an achievement like no other in history. It’s never been done this fast and roughly five fold faster than anything else in history!! Trump admin didn’t creat the science to make that happen, private industry did. I work in the industry and know what it takes to get things through the FDA from infancy to approval. Eliminating the red tape, funding front end for some companies, guaranteeing a purchasing amount on the back end, funding production BEFORE anything is even approved are not easy things to do. Blame Trump for anything else you want. But it doesn’t sound like you understand how improbable it was to get a vaccine this quick. Go out and ask any doctor in your personal orbit and get their opinion. Stop with the but Trump did this, but Trump did that, and Trump is ruining humanity. Be happy for this particular success. and by the way, this is my only account and my only incarnation on this board. so you aware also...many different therapies, some you have never heard of and are not mentioned in the media, have helped patients with Covid symptoms. And that includes HCQ. It is not the end all be all, but it does help certain cases depending on the stage of disease as combination therapy with zinc and VitaminD, not as primary, stand alone therapy. Enjoy your day.
  4. Most of those were convicted of things that actually had nothing to do with the original Russia investigation. Manafort, Flynn, Cohen, Stone...doesn’t make them moral people but also does not mean they we’re coordinating with Russia to get Trump elected which was a hoax Well said!
  5. So I assume you be leading the charge for a full China Biden investigation
  6. Since the people crying about not getting their student loans paid off for free because they can’t afford it is the discussion, I’m pretty sure they are financially illiterate to understand when someone is trying to financially screw them over.
  7. Don’t see how the players would be distracted other than motivation to have a blackshirt for then week coaches already grade every player in game film so it’s really no added work, given and taken in position meetings. Plus blackshirts already exist so it’s nothing the coaches don’t already deal with fans—who cares if they are distracted. Might be harder for your spreadsheet though.
  8. I like many of his policies but he is a crappy vessel to get those policies enacted. To answer you last question, I would want to see who’s running and then look into their background and what their 3-4 main priorities would be. Decide based on that. No one really gets much more than that done in a given term (large priorities that take legislation anyways). Hope that answers your question.
  9. Depends on what you are educated about. Many “educated” people can’t do a simple repair on their own home
  10. They should earn it on the field individually on a weekly basis no matter that past tradition was. Shouldn’t be a set number either because defense is so specialized. Play good that week, earn a blackshirt for the next week. Play like crap, get it taken away, practice good and play good the following week to earn it back.
  11. As long as it’s free money I guess. Nothing like attending an IVY league, private liberal arts college, getting free MBA classes or maybe even a JD on the backs of the blue collar workers tax money.
  12. As you well know, zero politicians fulfill their campaign promises. At best they actually get a few of the 50-100 things they all promise. To make him an outlier in this is just ignorant. I have no idea if he promised all that, but I’d he did, much of it would have been bluster because he couldn’t do it by himself. But I will take a crack at a few. A border wall is currently being built, mostly replacing the old fence with a few new miles sprinkled in. Without any D support. Obamacare would have been repealed if not for the flip flopper McCain. He was against Obamacare before he was for it. And Trump did get rid of individual mandate. Manufacturing jobs were a net positive prior to Covid. no idea what you mean by creating a health savings account. I currently have an HSA And have had one for years. Infrastructure was a mistake not to do. Should have did it before trying to tackle healthcare because he had common cause with D’s Didn’t he exit the Iran deal? Isn’t there peace deals in the Middle East they didn’t exist before? You know the ones Obama couldn’t do. Did you actually want him to investigate Hillary? I didn’t. The Clinton Foundation, sure But not her personally. The President does not have the power of the purse Why change vaccine schedules. Didn’t realize that was high on the Republican agenda. few if any Dems will vote for reciprocity. Keystone XL was a judiciary problem. healthcare billing has changed some. The Hospital lobby is one of the more powerful lobby’s in Washington. do you want him to open up libel laws? Don’t think I do. I don’t remember the penny plan as a priority. I know it’s a Hannity thing. Trump is more like Democrats when it comes to government spending. It’s one of the things that made Never trumpers initially not like him His Education secretary fought for more school choice/vouchers. Dem’s don’t want it and that is a shame. Minority Inner city kids get crushed by s#!t school districts. They should have the same chance at a good school as a suburban kid. the rest I don’t know or care much about. And I don’t think other R’s do either Trump played lots of golf no doubt. That got overblown with Obama and for overblown with Trump. Lots of business can be done on a golf course. Russia tried to meddle in the last election and that’s not a hoax. the Trump/Russia collision story, however, is a hoax and we spent over 2 years on hearing after hearing after hearing on it. A sham impeachment, see Jonathan Turley (noted far left legal scholar), And yes it derailed an agenda. Sorry to break it to you. Policy wise, he was one of the best Presidents we have had in quite sometime. IMO His problem is that he acts like as a$$ too much. Undoing some of the damage from the Obama administration could be some of his best achievements.
  13. This doesn’t make sense because defenses have become so specialized. Some player who plays 40 percent of the snaps doesn’t deserve a blackshirt because he doesn’t start the first play of the game yet plays his a$& off, yet a “starter” who played 50% of the snaps and only considered a starter because he played the first snap of the game gets a blackshirt no matter how well he played
  14. Mainly: Susan Rice—don’t want her anywhere near foreign policy Pete Buttigieg Eric Garcetti
  15. 1) It’s not in dispute that Flynn was spied on. It’s not in dispute that Biden brought up possible Logan Act. 2) It does matter because the narrative was set early by the fake Russia/Trump narrative and it derailed the first two years of his chance to govern. That said Biden should be allowed to start his transition and I can’t explain or justify why that isn’t happening. It’s similar to Bush not being able to transition while Clinton was holding everything up. Wasn’t right then and isn’t right now.
  16. Read the thread. Whole host of people claiming Trump was illegitimate. Harry Reid saying Russia manipulated the actual votes It’s quite funny seeing the same people call Trump illegitimate 4, 3, and 2 years ago complain about Trump calling Biden illegitimate.
  17. And yet his NSA choice was under surveillance and Biden wanted the Logan Act looked into for him. An offense that I don’t think has ever been prosecuted. Crossfire Hurricane was a nice transition present from Obama too
  18. nice trip down memory lane in this thread. Well worth the read
  19. Marc Thiessen (@marcthiessen) Tweeted: Operation Warp Speed is quite literally the greatest public health achievement of modern times. The fastest development and distribution of a vaccine for a novel virus in history. Say what you will about Trump’s handling of the pandemic, he deserves credit for this.
  20. Point out the exact BS not a generalization, prove its BS and my feelings might have a tinge to them but I will get over it.
  21. Very well said. I‘m not registered Independent but I have voted for Democrats in down ballot races before. I have to admit that I would replace any Democrat Senator with a good Republican Senator if given the choice. it was hypothetical and I will never get that chance. you do bring up a very interesting point though. Has a Governor of one party ever appointed a Senator of another party? If so, I wonder if the Governor ran for re-election after and what happened if they did. It is an interesting scenario for sure Look at us being peaceful to each other
  22. Well when they lie I guess that makes them a liar. What would you have me call them? Misstruth teller? Purposely mistaken?
