    Remember what I said above about those state leaders you claim were praising him?

     

     

    I'll let you read the rest.  Just think what the world would be like if a Cheeto could tell the truth.

    Oh were you referring to all the vents Mr. I will knock you out wanted, yelled about in order to make Washington look bad, yet didn’t need.  Mr. Cuomo threw a hissy fit when he realized Trump was right.

    @Archy1221  While googling this, I found this article interesting.  It's a nice long read.

    How about if he just wouldn't have lied so much about it?

     

    I found this one interesting.

     

     

    He likes to say this about the time he's mocking people for wearing masks...many times at his super spreader rallies.

     

    Here's a good one.  It's self explanatory why this is so damaging to the idea of listening to science.

     

     

     

    Oh....

     

    Gee......imagine if he hadn't downplayed it so often.

    I wonder if his mixed messages came from his advisors.

    His actions speak louder than his words. Or, in this case, his inactions. 230,000 Americans are dead because trump didn't take COVID-19 seriously. Use of this or that word doesn't absolve the blood on trump's hands, or the blood on the hands of his supporters and enablers.

     

     

    Did Europe take COVID-19 serious?

    Yes you did read that correctly. Over 330,000 deaths due to Covid-19 and some of the countries cause of death standards for COVID are nothing like ours.  
     

    I have zero blood on my hands.  Maybe you are just projecting.

    Well, maybe he shouldn't have disbanded the pandemic response team Obama had put together. Or called the virus a hoax for weeks back in the spring. Those are two things that Trump literally just had to do nothing at all to accomplish.

    He didn’t calm the virus a hoax from the beginning and that has been fact checked.

    This must be on Fox News or OANN.  I haven't seen any Drs or news media people on stations I watch saying any of those things.

     

    If that's where you are hearing those things, maybe you should not watch those networks.

    this just gives you a taste of what was said, which you already knew.  If you have Twitter, go look up Drew Holden.  He has a long thread of video clips from CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBsNews, Foxnews with both physicians, media, and elected officials saying more of the same.

    They said that because people were hoarding face masks that were needed by health care workers and first responders.  They told the public not to go buy them because these people needed them more.  We had nurses and doctors making their own masks instead of using ones that scientifically were made for their jobs.

     

     

    You have got to be kidding me?

    He has mocked and ridiculed people for wearing masks.

    He has demonized scientists who have talked about the severity of the pandemic.

    He has held large gatherings (rallies) in hot spots knowing his worshipers would love that he's balking against science.

    He's openly supported violence against state politicians who have tried mandating masks and social distancing.

    When the pandemic first started, he claimed it was nothing but a liberal hoax.

     

    His worshipers STILL believe all of these things.  Some of them have gone as far as planned violence against politicians who try to do the right things.  I don't think he has EVER condemned their actions.

     

    This question from you is absolutely amazing.  He needed to be the leader and example for the country.  Instead, he used the pandemic for nothing more than political gain.

     

    You are correct.  The public health officials blatently lied about the efficacy of masks and put the public in harms way.  There was a much better solution to that crisis and the people we were supposed to trust chose the wrong route.  It’s insane you don’t see that, but again oranges man bad I guess.  
     

    I would ask once more, what tangible policy did Trump not put into place that you or the experts wanted?  Remember now, the wizards of smart already told us in the summer that mass gatherings were now ok as long as they were for the right reason. 
     

    Trump did not openly support violence against state politicians.  But go ahead and throw out false allegations because ya know, Orange man bad.

     

    its also false, even left wing fact checkers like Politifact have agreed, that Trump never said COVID-19 was a hoax. But again, Claim false things because orange man bad 

     

    The militia idiots in Michigan actually hated Trump too as shown by their social media posts. But you don’t add that because it goes against your narrative. 
     

    And BTW...every single Democrat governor in a hard hit state early in the Pandemic praised the Trump Admin’s response to their needs.  It’s funny how their tune changed once the election season came around. 
     

    I have agreed that the mask communication was terrible and it could be why he lost the election.  But policy wise, what else should he have done?

    Yes I will and it's totally appropriate.  This friggen idiot still is the leading cheer leader AGAINST listening to scientists.  Everyone you listed are problems.  But, he is the leader of the country and he has COMPLETELY failed in his duty for that office.  

    And in 2 months he will be gone and the country will still be stuck with clowns doctors on TV and the clown media who say it’s ok to mass gather as long as your intentions fit the correct narrative and clown public policy and elected folks who have two sets of rules and what you are allowed to do.  
     

    Which means the public trust continues to erode.  It has gotten so bad with orange man bad dolts that they have successfully eroded the public’s confidence in a vaccine which is our only way out of this situation.  Trump derangement folks have actually become anti-Vaxers which is unfortunate

    If you know why they said it at the time, you wouldn't be blaming them for the current situation.

     

    Or...you can listen to and believe the over grown Cheeto child who demonizes the scientists every chance he can.

    My apologies..meant to type out that “it doesn’t make any sense and it was ignorant for the wizards of smart to not recommend mask wearing in March.  I know why they said it, and so does everyone else too and it still doesn’t make it right.  They were wrong at the time.   Should have been recommending face coverings since the beginning.  Maybe that would have helped prevent the northeast seeding across the country in March and April.    
     

    I don’t blame anyone in particular for the current situation.  we are dealing with a highly transmittable virus that has a relatively low death rate and 20-40% asymptomatic rate.  Tough to control, see Europe as an example.  We might live in the most free society on Earth which means we will be the most susceptible, even with the best healthcare, because of the lack of appetite/laws for lockdowns.  
     

    Trump should have been actively recommending face mask wearing, but what other tangible items should he have done that he didn’t do?  He can’t implement a nationwide mask mandate.

    In normal every day life, listening to Dr's has nothing to do with politics.

     

    Unfortunately, we have a blubbering idiot in the WH that has made this issue political.  That's caused millions of people to trust a blubbering idiot more than health professionals.  

    Unfortunately we also have blubbering MD idiots playing doctor on TV and blubbering idiots playing media personality on TV who literally said that it was ok to mass gather in the summer because they were gathering for a greater cause!   We also have blubbering Democrat politicians who joined the protests and locked down churches, schools (which is actually Anti-science as shown by numerous studies and CDC/WHO/Trump coronavirus task force officials/Biden transition task force officials) who allowed family members to travel (see IL Gov) while locking everyone down, who are currently traveling to Hawaii (see California politicians) while locking down their state, that caused more harm for mask and social distance compliance than anything else to date.  The actual experts we are supposed to have guide us, had different rules for the rioters and protesters, family members than the rest of society.  

    Blame Trump all you want, but these other clowns have done more damage and that damage will last into the next time we are all supposed to listen to the experts. 
     

    BTw..I wear a mask everyday when in-doors at a place of business and I believe everyone else should too.  It makes sense and was ignorant for the CDC/Surgeon General/Task Force/Fauci/ANY Doctor time say otherwise back in March.  I know why they said that, but it was huge stupid and lasting mistake.

    I hope this is a joke. Penn State had been garbage. Luke can't hit s#!t past 5 yards. He should've been picked at least twice. Our offense is basically all running backs who can't throw. 

    That’s what you get when you recruit QB’s who are like that in HS

    I don't think Frost views this season as a mulligan.

     

    And I hope he sticks to the formula for the correct way to develop players 

    If he doesn’t see this season as a mulligan then it’s a huge mistake in my opinion.  I can’t think of any reason not to play the most talented people and not necessarily the most “seasoned” players.

  13. Frost is trying to run the same he ran way back at Oregon.  Problem is defenses have adjusted to it, he doesn’t have the same talent/experience, and I personally believe that Frost is fun shy in the second half for some stupid reason.  Either that or he has no idea how to make an adjustment because NU is a dreadful second half team and has been since year one of Frost and Co.

    I watched it again as well.  AM wasn't really that bad but the team did have a different vibe with Luke in.  I would be surprised if Luke didn't get the start but won't be upset either way.  They are both plenty capable if the other parts of the team are clicking.  

    I respectfully disagree.  AM was not good when throwing the ball.  12-27 with a short passing game is beyond bad.  He should be completing a 65-70% clip with as many short passes as he throws.  If all he really contributes is a running aspect to his game then NU needs to either changes offenses or change QB’s

    Kids are super spreaders.

     

    First, they don't know they have it, second they are kids.  

     

    For every kid at my school that has it and is locked up...10 more have it and have not been tested.  They all hang out together, you think when they get in their cars at the end of the day that they all keep their mask on?  f#&% no...

    If we are going to keep saying follow the science (which we should), then everyone should acknowledge that to date, there are no scientific studies showing that schools are super spreading centers.

    Talk of an increase in suicide isn't making the point people think it's making, because if we actually had full mask use we wouldn't need to have lockdowns, and the people who want to say the solution is worse than the problem are likely the same people who think we don't need to wear masks.

    And in my post I said people should wear a mask.  Sorry you glossed over that point.

    The HS kids were remote learning at the beginning of the year, did in-school for about a month, and then went back to remote learning a few weeks ago.

    That’s a bummer for them.  Our school district has been in hybrid mode since first week in October and the entire district had 59 cases last week so it’s going pretty well so far.

    FYI, our school district had a meeting last week about covid and whether to keep kids in school or go remote learning. One of the things that state health dept reported was that young kids didn't contract covid or spread it as easily as adults. However, new data is showing that teenagers get and spread covid more easily than adults even though teenagers tend to be asymptomatic, so teenagers might be super spreaders. I haven't seen the research papers on this though, so grain of salt.

    Most of the contract tracing in the HS aged group seems to show these kids are contracting the disease in the community, not at school and not spreading it much in the actual schools because of the good mitigation plans schools have.

    Did you just google a bunch of stuff and throw links in here without reading them? Because none of these things are backing up your assertions.

     

     

    And you won’t get CDC data on official tallies until 2021 late probably.
