Yo Jorge this ones for you:
BREAKING: Gov Ron DeSantis pressured Miami Herald‘s law firm to drop a lawsuit that would force Florida to reveal all elder-care facilities with a coronavirus case.
The law firm dropped the case, but the Herald is now hiring NEW lawyers.

Jeorge the one thing i absolutely agree with u about and still do, is that given a choice between Satans Sister ( Hilary) and Trump i still take Trump everytime. He.maybe a self serving business man first but what she is IMO is far, far worse
Actually in my last post I was talking about DeSantisQuote:

They definitely don't like each other and are taking passive aggressive shots at each other.
**** em both.

“Why don’t we let this wash over the country?” Trump asked, a question others told the Post the president has raised repeatedly in the Oval Office. Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, realized with surprise that Trump was serious, the Post reported.
“Mr. President,” Fauci responded, according to the Post. “Many people would die.”
Love to be told how well the president has handled this virus btw.Quote:
A new report on the Trump administration's missteps in the early days of the coronavirus' spread into the US was published in the New York Times on Saturday, detailing new instances showing how President Donald Trump ignored the warnings of his advisers about the lethal infectious disease approaching America's doorstep.
According to the report, Dr. Robert Kadlec, the top disaster response official at the Department of Health and Human Services, convened the White House coronavirus task force on February 21. During his meeting, the group conducted a mock-up exercise of the pandemic. It predicted 110 million infections, 7.7 million hospitalizations and 586,000 deaths. As a result, the group "concluded they would soon need to move toward aggressive social distancing, even at the risk of severe disruption to the nation's economy and the daily lives of millions of Americans."
However, it would take more than three weeks for Trump to enact social distancing guidelines on March 16
If ALL Trump was was a self serving businessman he'd be 1000X more preferable to what we have now. Hillary being dislikeable likely would not have caused the deaths of thousands of americans, or ruined the economy, much less both.Quote:

He has been horrible. Sometimes you back a horse that is winning and then looses steam and you have to tear up your ticket.
They both suck.Quote:

I think opening things back up like school too fast like that would just start a second wave. Kind of like they're seeing in some parts overseas.Quote:

Actually if you watch this timeline Diblasio says it first, whether it's board of ed closing or shelter in place. Then Cuomo says it's not going to happen. The suddenly Cuomo en acts exactly what he said he would not not allow Diblasio to enact previously. It's like the Real Housewives show. But it's usually Diblasio actually calling it first and more accurately. I bet the NYC board of ED will be closed as he stated.Quote:

I agree with Flimflamman's post and your thoughts. It's a pissing contest.
I actually don't fault him for the "wash over" thought. Every idea needs exploring. It's not being reported that he was insistent, if that were the case, it would be ****ed but the consideration of that idea doesn't upset me.Quote:

But I voted for Kasssich in the Primaries. I voted for Trump too against Clinton but honestly had I just been conditioned to hate Clinton after years of listening to Rush, Hannity, Ingraham ? After I stopped listening to that trio for a fee months my mind began to change. Fresh air creeped in. I was like Ted Nugvent previously about anything " Lib ". Yet, at some point I got tired of being so inclined to depersonalize everyone not like me. I wouldn't say at this point both sides suck. I would say both sides are imperfect. I would say both sides say promised they can't deliver. However, election per election I am not going to wear a uniform and vote for a teammate anymore. However, my 18 years olds future is what I seek to protect at this point. And her children's and thus my priority given the changing economy is going to be how I vote in the future. Plus the ecology. Just this week the Trump administration rolled back fuel emission standards. While this month during this quarantine the Earths environment has seen a improvement due to less emmisons. The contrast to me is significant. We were told by some on the right human activity cannot alter the Earths climate. I think over the last three weeks what human activity can do when it comes to our environment. It's startling. I live in the Bronx and the air is crisper. Anyway, off to work, happy Easter. If Kassich or Rubio had been the Republican candidate both would have won, both would have appointed pro life judges, both would have cut taxes, but neither would have engendered so much division and been so irresponsible. Ted Cruz is a jerk and arguably would have been as divisive and slow to respond to the covid.Quote:

Personally I like them both, but realize completely they are both slick politicians with incredible ego and self serving agenda.Quote:

The county execs have a significant role in local government as do the Borough presidents. What is good down state may not be best for the entire state.

If you can't see it, then nothing will help and reading these posts has made me lose a lot of respect for many posters. Even when one person posts about perceived inadequacies about a politician, another can't even discuss the objections rationally without invoking their hatred for the President or someone else. You know who you are. Most days I feel like calling a bunch of you out, but that would only lead to more vitriol. I wouldn't even post today if it weren't a special day. So, in spite of what I might have inferred above, I want to wash it all clean.
Happy Easter everyone. He is risen. He has taken away the sins of the world. He has shown us the way, the truth and the light. Please be safe and count your blessing on this most blessed day of the religious calendar.
Be careful not to conflate the honor and glory reserved for the Prince of peace who sacrificed his life for mankind, who showed a life of mercy for the poor, sick, and outsiders for a President who has done none of this. Who has manipulated Christians desperate to have someone they believe had their best interests at heart. You invoke Christ in your post who willingly accepted ridicule, alienation, and death to teach others to show mercy yet you refuse to even to talk with people who you disagree with. As a Christian I don't get what your saying and it's intellectually dishonest that you invoke Christ as a cover for you to attack others who disagree with you. As Christ fought, don't point out the speck of dirt in the other persons eye and ignore the log in your own.Quote:

Quit trying to show us HOW YOU WANT HIM TO BE, he never will so save your time with something else to post.
A huge AMEN from this deplorable.Quote:

Love him or hate him Obama made it clear, in times of crisis the most essential quality is honesty.
