President and first Lady test positive for Covid-19 (Trumps)

Well, if Trump died today, would his nominee be invalidated? By "they," who do you mean? Looks like Barrett is immune now because she recovered during the summer.

The Senators.

Three Senators have tested positive, two Senators have already stated they won't vote for a justice until after the election. (Collins and Murkowski) that makes five.

Moscow Mitch could only afford to lose three.

But if the Democrats don't bother to show up to the committee hearing, they don't even have enough for a quorum.

According to Worldometers, the US is 12th in cases per million and 10th in deaths per million. We are the 3rd largest country.

How is that "terrible"?

Are you out of your mind?

First off, there are over 200 countries on the list, so yes, being in the top 5% is terrible just on its own.

Who are the other countries above us? Two are some bullshit tiny county with less than 100,000 people. Not a good sample size when you are using #/1M people.

Then a bunch of 3rd world LatAm countries, and finally Belgium and Spain, who by all measures, are also fucking this up royally (esp early on.)

Still tho, we are #3 in population. Let's compare ourselves to major countries.


China, where this started, 5000 deaths, 1/200th per capita. More testing. Economy growing.

India. Lol. Shocking that it hasn't been worse, but per capita deaths are 1/10th of ours.

Indonesia. Per capita deaths, 1/15th

Pakistan. Yes, home to the Taliban. 1/20th

Brazil. Closest comparison to us. A disaster. Bravo.

Nigeria. 1/100th

Bangladesh. Need i say more? 1/5th

Japan. 12 deaths/1M.
Us? 642.

It's embarrassing if we lost olympic medal counts to any of these countries, let alone losing in our ability to keep our people and our economy safe.

Trump is a disaster by any measure.

You realize you sound just like Trump puppet mouthing his very words while he works you. How does it feel with his hand up your ass?

New York was one of the first states hit when COVID information was at its lowest. Here are the latest numbers

What are Florida and Texas's excuse. The had the most historical history yet... Next time engage brain before speaking. In other words do your own research stop parroting Trump.

Nothing like a right wing fascist nimrod throwing around the words "Hitler" and "libtard" to describe people advocating for the health of the general public. The same guys that get aroused and raging erections every time they see Their Lord and Savior Trump act like a mini authoritarian fascist despot. Oh the irony.

Moscow needs it. Gets sick, admitted to ICU. Returns after the election to find put ACB not on SCOTUS and he is still Senator but in the minority.



ACB had it over the summer. She probably has antibodies.

Just saw that. Yeah she's probably safe, even though from what I've seen that followup resistance might only hang around for a few months.

 

[Muse]

Says Robbed, Trumptard

 

[kage69]

We're up to three members of the Judiciary Committee testing positive.

May these traitors all require lengthy hospitalization. American women retaining control over their bodies is more important than these sorry fucksticks being here.

Looks like the Democrats may have the power to delay replacement until after the next president is sworn in. I certainly hope so. I think it's better for all concerned.

I find it very interesting that hydroxychloroquine is NOT on the list of medicines and supplements Trump is taking at Reed. Also why hasn't the demon sperm doctor been called in to lead his treatment team.

This year has been visited by mega-irony, and I have a sense that more, a lot more, could be on the way.

Have no illusions. Insanity runs rampant in the USA.

Yeah, of course the RepublicanTs will say that it's not fair that God put his thumb on the scale.

They’ll just do it during the lame duck session. All the losers will vote yes, all the safe districts will vote yes, a handful of at risk seats for 2022(?) will vote yes but only enough to get them over the line.

That's my fear. That's why I posted, because I haven't seen any discussion of the lame duck session lately. Well, maybe fate will step in again... again, a guy can hope.

It would make things very interesting if she came down with it too though. Risk of reinfection is still not well understood. It's not something I'd want to test out myself anyway, certainly not at a super spreader event.

Maybe they decided to buy a few conservative trolls to balance out the liberal trolls that are already here

NOBODY recovers from Covid that quick.

NOBODY.

And even after they've technically "recovered", they still need a few months of rehab.

Right now, there aren't enough Republicant senators in the judiciary committee to even bring it to a floor vote.

 

[twjr]

It's a real embarrassment as well. Elected officials are supposed to set the fucking example. These imbeciles have been doing the opposite and now they're all getting themselves infected. The optics are ridiculous, they look incompetent and insane rolled into one. How is not an embarrassment for these to be elected officials? People voted for these fucking idiots that are going out and contracting this virus on some sort of bravado vision quest. Actually laughing out loud, it's just ridiculous

It would be funnier of these same people weren't supposed to be running a nuclear armed country.

 

[MrSquished]

This Retro Rob guy turned out to be useless. He ignored multiple posts about PPE issues, then also totally ignored a post about the Federal Government playing down the virus which caught east coast states unaware, hence the initial surge of cases there, and said nothing about the colossal clusterfuck that was any type of testing initiative on the federal level which really was a big big deal. He states a mythos about political figures then ignores a post that points out that many Trump supporters indeed see him as way more than just an elected official. Then he goes on to attack blue states like NJ and NY for being hit hard the most - well of course, NYC is the most visited city in the country by far, of course the virus is going to come in there hard and fast from overseas. And it relies on mass transit, cramming people into small spaces, etc.. This is not rocket science. But these right wingers like him are mostly civically useless. They should stick to mediocre football posts, you know, like SHUT UP AND DRIBBLE, and contributing whatever they can to the economy

 

[Viper1j]

Anybody else have the TV on right now?

People are pushing the possibility that Trump might have been a Johnny Covid-seed.

Apparently the math isn't working for the timeline, with regards to his condition deteriorating so quickly. He could've been infectious for weeks, not saying anything and just spreading it wherever he goes.

They want to know when his last negative test was, because that will give them a timeline. And nobody's talking

How many people are going to die because of this asshole?

The actual vote would happen later this month. Possible to recover by then but I bet Republicans would lie about their test results just to get back and vote. Senate can set their own rules as to what qualifies as proof of negative tests. Wonder if an independent government doctor runs those tests?

You're speaking of the full floor vote, right now, they don't even have enough senators to bring it out of committee.

Butterfly Effect: change one thing, and you change everything.

Pray for three ventilators.

Everyone stupid enough to get close to him. That would mean Republicans. Hopefully those people don't infect people who wouldn't get within a country mile of that asshole.

Other option is nobody on the committee gets tested and hope they don’t become Typhoid Mary.

 

[Texashiker]

A trump TV ad just played for me touting what a great job he's done on the virus.

Trump has done a great job. The only reason main stream propaganda machines says he has not done a great job is because Trump is Republican.
