v12cl: Imagine hating Trump so much you are willing to ditch freedom for lockdowns, closed schools, closed businesses, and censorship. Enjoy your president and race based politics, mush brain.
imagine being so dumb that you believe this is true
Going to be fun when Trump is gone, and people have to talk about ideas again.
To start, lockdowns and shutdowns are a disaster, and should never happen again.
You want to talk about 9/11 commission for January 6th. How about a commission for Covid lockdowns and the summer of riots the Democrats and the media 100% cosigned?
Do people really think government should be able to shut down the economy and lock you in your house?
Shut kids out of school and sports?
Close entire industries because the governor decided they were worth sacrificing, with no evidence of contributing to the spread?
Co-sign rioting, looting, and violence because "racism is the true health pandemic"?
Down for unity, as soon as you people take yours masks off, give your balls a tug, and man up against a super survivable disease the Democrats and the media have used to push fear for 11 months, all to win an election.
do you honestly believe the dems want to lock the country down and steal our freedom?
if you do you have more cylinders in your car engine than total working brain cells
HMMM, judging by the last 10 months, yes. What world are you living in?

‘Shameful’: US virus deaths top 400K as Trump leaves office
As President Donald Trump entered the final year of his term last January, the U.S. recorded its first confirmed case of COVID-19. Not to worry, Trump insisted, his administration had the virus “totally under control.”
Now, in his final hours in office, after a year of presidential denials of reality and responsibility, the pandemic’s U.S. death toll has eclipsed 400,000. And the loss of lives is accelerating.
“This is just one step on an ominous path of fatalities,” said Dr. Irwin Redlener, director of the National Center for Disaster Preparedness at Columbia University and one of many public health experts who contend the Trump administration’s handling of the crisis led to thousands of avoidable deaths.
“Everything about how it’s been managed has been infused with incompetence and dishonesty, and we’re paying a heavy price,” he said.
The 400,000-death toll, reported Tuesday by Johns Hopkins University, is greater than the population of New Orleans, Cleveland or Tampa, Florida. It’s nearly equal to the number of American lives lost annually to strokes, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, flu and pneumonia combined.
With more than 4,000 deaths recorded on some recent days — the most since the pandemic began — the toll by week’s end will probably surpass the number of Americans killed in World War II.
“We need to follow the science and the 400,000th death is shameful,” said Cliff Daniels, chief strategy officer for Methodist Hospital of Southern California, near Los Angeles. With its morgue full, the hospital has parked a refrigerated truck outside to hold the bodies of COVID-19 victims until funeral homes can retrieve them.
“It’s so incredibly, unimaginably sad that so many people have died that could have been avoided,” he said.
President-elect Joe Biden, who will be sworn in Wednesday, took part in an evening remembrance ceremony Tuesday near the Lincoln Memorial in Washington. The 400,000 dead were represented by 400 lights placed around the reflecting pool. The bell at the Washington National Cathedral tolled 400 times.
Other cities around the U.S. planned tributes as well. The Empire State Building was lit in “heartbeat” red — the same lighting used last year as a show of support for emergency workers at the height of the virus surge in New York City. The red lights pulsed as a visual heartbeat. In Salt Lake City, the bells at the Utah Capitol were to ring 15 times in honor of the more than 1,500 lives lost to COVID-19 in the state.
The U.S. accounts for nearly 1 of every 5 virus deaths reported worldwide, far more than any other country despite its great wealth and medical resources.
The coronavirus would almost certainly have posed a grave crisis for any president given its rapid spread and power to kill, experts on public health and government said.
But Trump seemed to invest as much in battling public perceptions as he did in fighting the virus itself, repeatedly downplaying the threat and rejecting scientific expertise while fanning conflicts ignited by the outbreak.
As president he was singularly positioned to counsel Americans. Instead, he used his pulpit to spout theories — refuted by doctors — that taking unproven medicines or even injecting household disinfectant might save people from the virus.
The White House defended the administration this week.
“We grieve every single life lost to this pandemic, and thanks to the president’s leadership, Operation Warp Speed has led to the development of multiple safe and effective vaccines in record time, something many said would never happen,” said White House spokesman Judd Deere.
With deaths spiraling in the New York City area last spring, Trump declared “war” on the virus. But he was slow to invoke the Defense Production Act to secure desperately needed medical equipment. Then he sought to avoid responsibility for shortfalls, saying that the federal government was “merely a backup” for governors and legislatures.
“I think it is the first time in history that a president has declared a war and we have experienced a true national crisis and then dumped responsibility for it on the states,” said Drew Altman, president of the Kaiser Family Foundation, a health care policy think tank.
When the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tried to issue guidelines for reopening in May, Trump administration officials held them up and watered them down. As the months passed, Trump claimed he was smarter than the scientists and belittled experts like Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government’s top authority on infectious diseases.
“Why would you bench the CDC, the greatest fighting force of infectious disease in the world? Why would you call Tony Fauci a disaster?” asked Dr. Howard Markel, a medical historian at the University of Michigan. “It just doesn’t make sense.”
As governors came under pressure to reopen state economies, Trump pushed them to move faster, asserting falsely that the virus was fading. “LIBERATE MINNESOTA!” he tweeted in April as angry protesters gathered at the state Capitol to oppose the Democratic governor’s stay-at-home restrictions. “LIBERATE MICHIGAN!”
In Republican-led states like Arizona that allowed businesses to reopen, hospitals and morgues filled with virus victims.
“It led to the tragically sharp partisan divide we’ve seen in the country on COVID, and that has fundamental implications for where we are now, because it means the Biden administration can’t start over,” Altman said. “They can’t put the genie back in the bottle.”
In early October, when Trump himself contracted COVID-19, he ignored safety protocols, ordering up a motorcade so he could wave to supporters outside his hospital. Once released, he appeared on the White House balcony to take off his mask for the cameras, making light of health officials’ pleas for people to cover their faces.
“We’re rounding the corner,” Trump said of the battle with the virus during a debate with Biden in late October. “It’s going away.”
isn’t. U.S. deaths from COVID-19 surpassed 100,000 in late May, then tripled by mid-December. Experts at the University of Washington project deaths will reach nearly 567,000 by May 1.
More than 120,000 patients with the virus are in the hospital in the U.S., according to the COVID Tracking Project, twice the number who filled wards during previous peaks. On a single day last week, the U.S. recorded more than 4,400 deaths.
While vaccine research funded by the administration as part of Warp Speed has proved successful, the campaign trumpeted by the White House to rapidly distribute and administer millions of shots has fallen well short of the early goals officials set.
“Young people are dying, young people who have their whole lives ahead of them,” said Mawata Kamara, a nurse at California’s San Leandro Hospital who is furious over the surging COVID-19 cases that have overwhelmed health care workers. “We could have done so much more.”
Many voters considered the federal government’s response to the pandemic a key factor in their vote: 39% said it was the single most important factor, and they overwhelmingly backed Biden over Trump, according to AP VoteCast.
But millions of others stood with him.
“Here you have a pandemic,” said Eric Dezenhall, a Washington crisis management consultant, “yet you have a massive percent of the population that doesn’t believe it exists.”

I donated a shit ton of money to Biden and other dems. My investment paid off. I don't know about anyone else, but I fucking won.
You donated a "shit ton of money" ? Ha Ha Ha. All that means is that you are a RUBE. They took your money like Christopher Mitchell scammed all of his RUBEs. And now, they will try to take the rest of your money with increased taxes and regulation. The only thing you WON is the right to be called a RUBE.
my first
i'm honored
Bro. You live in Florida. You don't to call anyone a rube.

Florida, the state that has it written in the State Constitution that there is NO STATE INCOME TAX. Florida, the state that gets shit about voting and elections, yet finished its count in 2020 within 3 hours of polls closing. Florida, the state that kept its economy OPEN and allowed business to operate and for people to support their families during the pandemic. (It should be noted that our COVID numbers are just as good, if not better than California and New York that shut everything down). Florida, the state that has the second most people moving in to it (Texas is 1st) since the pandemic started. Florida, which has great weather all year round (I can wear shorts in December and January). Oh and our property taxes are lower, too, You're the Rube for not living here. So how much money did you donate to those Christophe Mitchell type hustlers?
i'm a Floridian for over a decade now...
The one area this State needs to get right is the Gaming sector. The SLAMinole Inidians, on the backs of Walt Disney World, is why we still have such a monopolistic, only one player the lol SLAMinole Indians happening. Florida needs to even just slightly open up to more competition, competition is always what is best for the consumer, you and me. Not themselves, monopoly's largely only benefit that one player, in this case the SLAMinole Indians (Hard Rock).
Im a firm believer and I know from experience, in 10 or 20 years Florida will fkn destroy Las Vegas. Easily, who the fuck wants to go to a desert, when you could be relaxin, gambling, enjoying the beach in Florida. If of course, Florida would just get it right, and it isnt gonna be easy, Disney is powerful mothrfkr in Florida. And they dont want casinos, but post covid Disney might have lost a little strength imo, in ways. But sorry, not to digress, but you get my point. Florida has everything, everything a Casino and gambler wants. We will literally put Las Vegas out of business and id bet on it, who the fucks going to a desert when you can go to paradise for many?
Cerveza Fria: "Who's we? YOU didn't do anything. Same as the idiots who say "We Won" at the end of a football game they didn't paly in."
OMFG what a piss ant response.
After 4 years of "winning" this is truly a snowflake response.
In fact, Cerveza Fria, needs to turn in his man card for a box of Kleenex.
Cry it out buddy, it will feel better. LOL

funny to hear this fag jimmy telling people to cry it out
you said you have me on ignore
get the fuck outta my thread nancy
You make a good point. This is largely due to the Compact negotiated by the Gov. Charlie Crist (Republican turned Independent turned Democrat) and the "Semen Hole" Tribe of Florida. They even gave the short shrift to other Indian Tribes like the Miccosukee Tribe. State run facilities are limited to Poker and Slots and Horse Racing (Dog Racing is being phased out).
In addition to Disney, the Cruise Lines and Bahamas are forces at play here as well. The Bahamas recently opened Baha Mar which has full gaming including Sports Betting as well.
But, back to the Seminole Monopoly on meaningful gaming. I think the state should get rid of the Compact and do their own thing. Let's have Casinos on the beaches. It will be the death of Vegas.
Dude, take your Kleenex and wipe your leg, because your pussy's crying. Big Dick is man who can stand on his own feet and doesn't need your snowflake, weak sauce help. You're actually hurting him. As long as you have that fraud as your avatar, nobody can take you seriously. All I have to say to you is your idol lost his job to BLAINE GABBERT. 'nuff said.
