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.

Isn't that sweet? But you made sure to come in today, with full on judgment and a holier than thou attitude as if you are, so very above it all and wish us a happy easter;.
Bad news. We all have this side. Even you. At least we aren't afraid of it. Actually. when it comes down to it, I'll wager most of us get into heaven before you. We are honest.

Did you know in the Chzek republic, men bearing switches, come to the doors of women and hit them with the switch until they give them their basket of eggs?

The cuts, coupled with the administration’s repeated calls to cut the budget for the CDC and other public health agencies, made it clear that the Trump administration wasn’t prioritizing the federal government’s ability to respond to disease outbreaks.

No one in the govt prioritized the response to any outbreaks. Why did no one else in the govt Block trump from doing those moves if they really happened ? I mean all if his other moves were blocked by either congress or judges in court . And why did no governors take it amongst themselves to prepare for any pandemic ? Especially cuomo , his state has the most people entering from other countries and he did nothing to prepare for this pandemic . My point is that yes I already know trump did nothing to prepare for this pandemic , but he wasn’t the only one who knew a long time ago that the US was very vulnerable to it .

For the first time in history there is a fully signed Presidential Disaster Declaration for all 50 States. We are winning, and will win, the war on the Invisible Enemy!

Is it me or is there an inherent contradiction here. Disaster declaration----->We are winning. :confused: All this winning, not sure if I can endure much more!

Now that you mention it, although I wasn't intending a comparison. Who do you feel more comfortable with during this crisis? Who has showed leadership and lead with honesty? If our lives depend on it, and they may, who do you want in charge? TV ratings or well reasoned rational thought?

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

No president has had a crisis like this......

It's basically a ***** fest between jorge/mush and everyone else. Not my favorite thread since I find politics dumb, so I don't respond to all of it lol.
I'll talk about the rona, but the politics part I'll pass.

What the **** are you talking about?
Civil war
Ww1
Great Depression
Ww2
Spanish flu
Cuban middle crisis
Cold War
9-11
2008 collapse

Those are just off the top of my head
Trump is just a very big tart Ed human

He is horrible in this crisis
He is a floating orange turd.

I sadly agree. Our resolve is Limited. We have never had a test and this is it .
It it involved a physical fight, I think we do just fine but we are weak mentally
As I said, we are great at liberty and pursuit of happiness but not so great at actual life
