Orange is the new bad!

The top Coronavirus sub on Reddit had been co-opted, taken overl by two groups. One is those who are freaking the fuck out. I've seen folks suggesting the US close all restaurants. Ignoring the fact that industry feeds tens of millions in the people in the US every day - and closing all restaurants with mean grocery stores wouldn't have enough food to feed everybody. The response? Fuck it. We are scared, do shit!

Then the other group, who is very loud, have proclaimed that the entire pandemic is Trump's fault. They're absolutely come a positively trying to make political hay out of this. The ongoing mantra is that when this first popped up come at the United States should have distributed hundreds of millions of test kits - and that not happening is Trump's fault. Ignoring that the virus test, isn't a true kit. and the fact that the tests requires follow-up tests kind of because it's not very accurate. And we have nowhere on planet Earth set up to produce enough. No matter what happens, or doesn't happen, it's Trump's fault. And the people with the political bent, are managing to stoke the fire of the people who are freaking the fuck out - making them freak out even more. And it's people forgot more, they are easy pickings to be convinced that it's all Trump's fault.

Fucking lunacy

Then the other group, who is very loud, have proclaimed that the entire pandemic is Trump's fault. They're absolutely come a positively trying to make political hay out of this.

I have a feeling this may prove to be a tactical mistake that very well could backfire politically. Coronavirus is already winding down in China. Today there are 14,801 active cases in China, and yesterday there were 16,136. The number of active cases has been dropping like that for over three weeks, and the number of daily new cases has been stable in the mid-to-low double digits.

Barring any unforeseen events (I can't claim to predict the future), the numbers indicate China should be free of Coronavirus in less than a month. If you consider that the first reported case in the US appeared 6-7 weeks after China, that would suggest that we should be through this by early June (which is a full month and a half before the Democratic National Convention).

So, if that's how things end up panning out (again, I can't predict the future... maybe this turns out to be the literal apocalypse, but I somehow doubt it), then those making political hay now are likely to end up with egg on their face, and Trump will be able to claim this pandemic as a victory. But who knows... nothing's guaranteed.

It is sickening. They literally downvote comments debunking their claims. Such as they claim that Trump cut the CDC budget, when he did not. The nuance is that he proposed cuts, but like many budget proposals... you propose some cuts that won't go through in exchange for other cuts that will go through when you drop some of your demands.

It's a trick question! Trump is Hitler! He hates Jews-- including his daughter and grandchildren!

RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA!

Trump hates women and minorities! Making sure they are all gainfully employed is merely a political stunt!

THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT. THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT. THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT. THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT. THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT. THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT. THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT. THE SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IS AN IDIOT.

The Left, ladies and gentlemen.

That's the secret cap, they always push both!

Edit: a word that makes more sense.

Being a traitorous, non-contributing, leftist member of society isn't easy. Welfare doesn't collect itself.

It is actually illegal to shout 'fire' in a crowd. There should be precedence to take them down. The problem, is as always, proving actual grounds to initiate the lawsuit.

I worked around leftards (we just called them liberals back then) in the 1990s.

You would be amazed at what leftards are willing to say or even write when in the comfort of one of their echo-chamber cocoons. They have limited self awareness.

A friend of mine who retired as a police detective once told me that crime solution rates would drop pretty close to zero if criminals ever became smart enough to keep their stupid mouths shut about what they did.

This pain is pretty well spread since retirement plans are all tied to the markets. Just as any city bus crash leads to more injury claims than the number of people who can actually fit in (or even on) the bus, each person invested in the market likely has three or more people who are not or insufficiently invested willing to jump on the righteous anger bandwagon when it starts to roll.

There is an easy case to be made in the court of public opinion that economic sabotage is warfare against the United States. Active propagandists had better have a bug-out plan.

This would be even better by replacing the guy's head with a sweating Chuck Schumer.

I considered Jimmy Cocksta's name tag, before adding the 'which one is racist' instead.

We all know that the picture represents the MSM sweating bullets because we know what they are doing.

Weird that in so many parts of life, the "racist" decision is the more prudent, safer, or more effective move.

They've blamed a hurricane, a tornado, and a virus on this one man. And they think WE are the ones who 'worship' him.

Do you think it's exhausting for them to constantly be so worked up and overemotional about everything? It sure is exhausting to pay attention to. Absolute insanity the lack of common sense and appropriate accountability with these people..

Both are racist at the same time. When Democrats control the media, they get to have it both ways.

They just do both. They always have.

Call me crazy, but I really think this no coincidence. They tried Russiagate, they tried peach mints...but now we have this virus that successfully is messing with our great economy...which they will blame on Trump. The MSM newscasters are literally almost smiling while reporting about the market crash today. Wuhan flu was released by someone with the intent of fucking with us and fucking with Trump's presidency. Just my two cents.

Isolated_Patriot [S] 1 point ago +1 / -0

They are absolutely stoking the panic on purpose. An outbreak actually helps Trump though. Any reasonable person will see, that Trump's policies have helped stem the tide, and the open borders and full global reliance on china are a bad thing.

If anything this will fuel anti-globalism around the world.
