You should, for what it’s worth.Quote:

Good way to undercut (negate?) the sincerity of your opening line.

McConnell: Obama "should have kept his mouth shut"
justified or not?Quote:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell criticized Barack Obama Monday evening, lashing out days after the former president reportedly described the Trump administration's response to the coronavirus as an “absolute chaotic disaster.”
“I think President Obama should have kept his mouth shut,” McConnell (R-Ky.) told Lara Trump, the president’s daughter-in-law, during an online Trump campaign event.
McConnell added that the critique was “a little bit classless” and said former presidents should follow “the tradition that the Bushes set up of not critiquing the president who comes after you.”
when Obama was President did former President Bush ever comment on what Obama was or was not doing?
regardless of anything Bush could have said or not, Trump himself has brought up Obama many times, so I can understand Obama commenting in return.
Sure 5% of people that play the lottery win.Quote:

but I question what people think of people simply getting Covid-19, as if it's awful and they're expected to die. this to me is the perception I have gotten from some considering how information is pushed from the media.
You've clearly never payed golf.Quote:
