I feel like with trump it's an emotional appeal. I feel the right wing propaganda machine is much more set in emotional appeal than left wing, that's why there's such a disconnect between both sides.

Most people I talk to that say pro trump, really they are like **** the system, burn it down.

I'm like you idiots, Trump is pure corporate, wtf!!

But its def an emotional appeal, and a VERY powerful one.

How is it possible your surgeon friend went through med school and still willing to vote for a man who rolled out the complete failure of a corona response we are now dealing with.

Did he not take epidemiology?

Ask him. Ask him psd wants to know what the ****, man.

Well I haven’t seen it so I will need to take your word for it. Most people I know and see are wearing their masks. But maybe it’s different in a state that has for some reason chosen not to have a mask mandate.

I'm not a Democrat. I have no need to spread disinformation about Covid.
Enough snarky remarks though. We will not flatten the curve substantially without either closing the economy down, as we did in March of 2020 or we have a serviceable vaccine. That will be the only thing that allows us to get back to any sort of normalcy in our country.
Closing the country down is unacceptable in the long run. The only thing that happens is the government goes broke and people are limited as to the choices they have for basic products. A serviceable vaccine will allow us to get back to pre-Covid normals, or at least get close.
As to the styles of vaccines, and there are many, I don't have the expertise to make any comments on this. I recommend reading the news that comes from Lancet, Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) or the major universities -- NYU, Johns Hopkins, and the major medical centers -- Mayo etal.
Now for some general suggestions that you have heard elsewhere, but I will repeat them to be sure they are understood.
1. Wear a mask when you are in public. If you are walking your dog or exercising in a park with no one else around you, you should be OK. If you are in a store or taking public transportation, wear one.
2. Wash your hands. Hand sanitizers with at least 60% alcohol are very effective in killing Covid. Washing with soap and water is also effective.
3. Stay out of large crowds.

Doctors can absolutely lack intelligence. It is less common at that level of education but it happens.

Speaking of spreading disinformation, still think the Covid deaths ar evening exaggerated and how many do you think we’re at now?

At least be consistent

You are so lost on this topic.

Many leaders botched their pandemic response early on. Big difference with Trump compared to many others is that he refused to learn from his early mistakes and instead, generally doubled down on his idiotic approach to this virus. It's one thing to make a mistake, it's another much worse thing to not learn from your mistakes. It'd be much easier to cut Trump a little slack here if he wasn't guilty of the latter.

What are you having trouble following here, Brewers?

No, there are many places that have opened their economies partially back up and have the curve under control.

There is no doubt we can find a mix of open economy + distance protocol which will keep spread minimal.

I understand when you make an argument as poorly as you did the desperation to scramble, but nowhere did I even approach arguing against the strawman you made at the end. You’re literally making up stances lol

Please tell me where I said believing in God equates to lacking logical skills. I can wait, kid.
