  None. Do you know what a precautionary measure is?

  Let me ask you: Does he look like someone at deaths door? Is standing up, talking coherently and without shortness of breath, is his capable of talking without coughing?

  How is his complexion? alertness?

  If you had Corona, and you were able to do all that, would you naturally conclude you had a mild case or a severe case?

  Do you remember you made a big point out of "marking" my post before the weekend where I wrote he would be up and about, showing he was in good health during the weekend?

  I had a regular cold two years ago and looked and sounded a heck of a lot worse than Trump.

  Who am I to believe, the Huffington post or my own lying eyes?

  This is similar to how earlier last week you insisted Trump was broke despite owning a private plane and multiple multi-million dollar properties.

  Sick People Are Happy If Someone Gets Covid

  some people are such haters!

  we may have real differences on politics, religion or life but we should never rejoice that someone has gotten an illness simply because we don’t see eye to eye with them.. there are people here that i have differences with but i would never wish them i’ll health or worse, death.👎.

  I agree. It is very nasty how the left are treating Trump with no compassion. The conservative media does not behave like that, but rather engage with compassion and empathy when the situation calls for it.

  The left is also incredibly poor at judging the optics of anything related to Trump. To most folks, showing your face when you have the flu implies bravery and strength. I think the ride in the car was just the hopeful message people need.

  Here is the appropriate context: https://www.politifact.com/article/2020/apr/24/context-what-donald-trump-said-about-disinfectant-/

  What Trump said was perhaps phrased a bit clumsy, but it is a completely reasonable and coherent statement.

  California to ban sales of fossil fuel cars in 15 years

  by mickbobcat in

  this will never work but liberals are too stupid to know it.

  first off all you have to do is cross the border and buy a car.

  if they will not let you license it in the state then many will license it out of state.

  slimboyfat: If it cost more fossil fuel energy to build/drive a "green" car than a "regular" car (not to speak of all the new mines, factories, etc.), then what is the point?

  It is not insignificant the so-called worst-case changes are all 50-100 years in the future. If I told you that you would get 100 dollars now, but owe 1000 in 100 years, chances are you would take the money now. In the same way, it is completely rational to not care that much about what may (or may not) happen in 100 years, even so-called catastrophic scenarios.

  And there it is, a completely fine looking Trump walks to Marine one while wearing a mask.

  The story people will remember from this is that Trump did not hide in the basement from the virus like Biden, but stayed on his post and did his job, and when he got ill, he bravely fought the virus. It may seem sappy to put it like that, but part of the US presidency is about emotions.

  People don't want a president who lived in his basement for 3 months because of fancy flu.

  A bit. When Trump turns out fine, it will send a message that a person in the supposed danger age can get it and it is not that big a deal. Furthermore, it will make Trump look strong. Not a good day for Biden...

  Anthony Morris wants former Jehovah's Witnesses DEAD

  in a disgusting new video, anthony morris iii talks about apostates, and brings to mind his 'hot dog' talk all over again as he anticipates the demise of ex-jehovah's witnesses.

  i don't know if you're familiar with maggots, but when you see a whole bunch of them it's not a pleasant sight.. .

  what a fitting picture of the final end of all of god's enemies.

  It is a poor sign from an institutional standpoint that they don't have a mechanism to stop this. I mean, if this was their BEST take...

  I disagree with those who feel the debate did not have substance.

  For instance, I am excited to learn Trump has a plan to lower drug prices by 80-90 percent, and make insulin as cheap as water. This may sound unrealistic but it isn't. Most drugs are in fact very cheap to manufacture and the price is kept artificially high. This is the true purpose of Medicaid, ACA, etc. European countries are not that different, it is just called something else.

  A nurse and a bed is not that expensive in an open economy. Medicine (currently) is. If all public healthcare was stripped away and drug prizes was lowered as Trump suggests, the result would be the cheapest and best healthcare system imaginable. All that is possible in the next 4 years with the new court, which is why democrats are scared.
