Coronavirus

Yh the demise of labour is sad, but expected given the in party beefing.

Hm, I think it takes more than being funny to run a country. I guess it's the same with Trump where their goofy demeanor is often seen as endearing when it's actually a mask for their damaging agendas and policies.

A politician with a clown mask is not what I'd want. Plus I don't drink so unfortunately won't be able to return a choice for that.

I didn't say I wanted him to run the country. I said I'd go to the pub with him.

It's ok, he couldn't persuade me to vote for him, however amusing he was. It has been years since anyone's been able to buy me with half a lager and a bag of pork scratchings.

Actually, my perspective is based on the draconian measures taking place as we speak.

Businesses are forced to close, many of those being small, family-owned businesses like restaurants, hair salons, feed stores, independent clothing stores, bakeries, and the entire service industry, etc...most of which function primarily as brick & mortar stores only, which means they can’t even look to transitioning to an online presence to stay open.

They will go bankrupt.

ALL their decades (if not generations) of hard work, sacrifice, contributions & support to local economy...many becoming pillars of the community & providing steady, stable employment and valuable services to their area.....GONE.

Exactly HOW LONG do you think these small mom & pops stores (the most beloved by the American people) can afford to continue paying rent for a business that is bringing in ZERO revenue?

As most of us already know, bills come every month whether we want them to or not, and certainly whether we have the money to pay them or not.

Small business owners shouldn’t have to dip into their retirement funds to sustain their closed business for an indefinite amount of time.

Meanwhile, corporate-owned businesses are raking in the profits that small businesses have lost because they ARE allowed to be open.

Wealthy stores like Wal-Mart, Amazon, Costco, etc...they have more business than they can handle & are hiring on the spot at reduced wages, often minimum wage.

My husband is friends with a professor from SMU who took a part-time job filling orders for Amazon because colleges are closed, and he is being paid minimum wage despite having multiple doctorate degrees.

Today our governor here in Texas has required that we wear masks in public or be fined $1,000.

WTF?!

It seems we aren’t even allowed to breathe fresh air anymore! I understand self-quarantine if you are sick, but why must the healthy be forced to stay indoors, wear masks & slather hand sanitizer all over our bodies like lotion?

Why is everyone complacent with these new Communist measures?

Do you even know what communism is actually?

Trump never called the coronavirus a hoax. Not once. It’s amazing how people take this MSM lie and repeat it over and over again.

Who do you think you help when you repeat lies?

Well it appears he didn't actually call it a hoax, I thought that he did, although he did call the Democrat's reaction to it "a hoax" and lets not pretend that he isn't directing that type of speech towards a certain segment of his support base who think everything is "fake" Trump knows that word has power and it isn't a coincidence that he always uses it.

Its also no exaggeration that Trump severely downplayed the Coronavirus, and did not warn Americans despite the fact they knew much more than they lead on.

Here is a timeline of Trump's statements, and you will see he refers to "the democrats hoax"

I want everybody to keep in mind as they look at the dates of his statements, that his government ran "Crimson contagion" drills in August 2019, and that his intelligence was aware of the virus back in November 2019, and that they warned Israel and NATO at this time. Let that sink in as you hear him speak in reference to the dates.

I've noticed that many people confuse communism with totalitarianism. They literally cannot tell the difference between the 2. I've had many debates with people who cannot understand these are two seperate things. Over 100 years of billionaire funded propaganda will do that to you.

. But I see we are back to just hating Trump and spinning wheels on page 301 on that, yet again.

Ok before you start with this tag line yet again just answer me this one question.

If Trump has the apparent power to shut his country down, which he has proclaimed he has done "super fast", with "fantastic results" (I have shitloads of video evidence to prove this) and also has the power to open parts of the country up again, because they needing to get back to work Then why does he not have the power to shut down Americas fake news outlets? who he claims are lying to the American people about pretty much everything!!!

If your very own media are lying constantly to it's consumers then you have a duty of care to shut the operations down.

But the thing is, and I'm sure you are well aware of this by now, the people who own the media are the very same people who own Trump so this whole Trump hates the media and the media hates Trump charade is nothing more than a smokescreen.

What it does do, and this plays out on this forum daily by yourself and others is allow you to make the flimsy argument that if you hate Trump that must mean you believe the MSN.....because they hate Trump too.

It doesn't even register as a valid argument so I don't even know why you keep on using it as one to be honest.

Don't forget about the Census here in the US.

Filled it out...didn’t like it, but..that’s the way it goes.

Show me a communist system that is not totalitarian.

So you’re saying there’s a chance?

Can you name a single communist country in history that hasn’t also been totalitarian?

You can see why people might get the two confused.

Let me help you with the answer before this thread gets 5 pages of the usual chit chat.

Perhaps it's because there is absolutely NOTHING he can do about it because the media are actually allowed to lie to the public?

Shall look forward to your whitty retort.

"A democratic hoax"

Is that not politicising the virus?....which is what he was accusing the dems of doing. Lol

the problem is that they (Democrats and Republicans) are both politicizing this which means its hard to get to the truth.

This whole crisis is being politicized accross the globe

the whole phony Globalist vs Nationalist garbage appears again.

Trump vs WHO

Trumps supporters are conditioned to think anything that has to do with international cooperation IS BAD.

If Trump does cut funding for the WHO, which would be illegal/authoritarian because that is up to Congress, it is suggested that it would be detrimental to places in AFrica who are now starting to experience an uptick in Coronavirus infections and deaths. I wonder is 5G all over Africa too ?

Everyone has an agenda in the media, political parties, international alliances, etc. so the truth or whats good for the public is not important to these people.

@Lurker There has never been a real Communist states

What would be a "real" communist state? Are you thinking communal/tribal?

Double whiskey and I'm anyone's.

But I still won't vote Tory.

America is founded on free speech, so Don's hands are tied because it'd be unconstitutional to shut them down even though they talk sh*t.

Show me any system that is not totalitarian. I can’t think of one. Power corrupts.

And absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Would less totalitarian count?

Now when we talk about Africa this is where it gets interesting. With what we've been told about how easily transmissable this virus is can you imagine the death figures that could be created there? Huge numbers no doubt. But the WHO have a simulation for the virus planned in September so hopefully nobody sneezes on a Nigerean until then.

Both China and America are bidding for big business in Africa, both are heavily invested already so this video may even show motive for how this virus has hit from a politically geographical point of view.
