    Did you actually think about it?

    Trump had far worse "lapses" when he was campaigning, that is what happens with old brains when tired, you should know.

    Joe and Michelle.. Oh yes..

  2. So Trump reacts late and its the Democrats fault...

    Trump orders a shut down and its the Democrats fault

    GOP and Dem Governors close their states and its the Democrats fault..

    must be nice to take no responsibility for anything and bitch and moan all day long..

    Lot of whiners on here blaming Democrats for a Chinese virus during a Republican administration lol

    You really think this is an appropriate analogy? Genuinely asking.

    Yes. I am not strictly American, my mom was and I have lots of family there but.. My life experience is in the larger world. I own a fair bit of land there, own a company there, two employees there, pay taxes.. But still apart.

    As such I can see people are in a bubble / cult and narcissists like Trump make these. Yeah, Obama said you could keep your doctor but we are on a whole new level now.

    He literally poisoned followers and many have actually died to "own the libs".. Pretty appropriate.

    I really don't understand what you just typed here. Bunch of gibberish.

    But, based on your analogy, are you saying not to open up the country until there's no new infections? Do you know what flatten the curve was all about when it was first proposed? Have you actually looked at the curve? Have you compared the curve to the projections? Flatten the curve wasn't about no new infections. We don't live in a fairytale.

    I'm surprised this didn't get more likes.
    Great post and pretty much spot on imo.

    All you are doing is writing both sides of the argument and surprise, you think you look good.

    I posted two things, you were talking about the parachute one? That is too basic not to understand. Please be stupid somewhere else.

    Another guy who's dad did not do him any favours..

    You seriously love to hear yourself talk. I've noticed that on all your posts. You go on these tangents that make no sense. You sound like a person that thinks his shit doesn't stink. Must be mad annoying to be around.

    The parachute analogy is retarded. It's something facebook moms post on their timeline.

  9. Sound a little defensive there. Im still not sure why you care so deeply about this lockdown. Even though a lot of people are still working and spending money. Not as much as before but the economy didnt just stop cold.

    Yes, parachutes retard things.

    Can you tell us about your father, was he a good dad to you?
