But sure, let’s try to criticize the Dems! lol


Last two Republican Presidents had big disasters at the end of a term. Coincidence?

(well I'm counting this one as #2)


Yes is an easy answer. Like many Democrats, you look for something that is not there to fit your agenda.

It was just a jab. Of course, there's plenty of real complaints about our dear leader.

If I was really serious I would be pretending it was serious like the hot air inflators and doing a sham news interview.

This pandemic was predicted. Not enough people listening to scientists and medical related research. Even though medicine has improved, our ability to move worldwide has multiplied significantly since 1918. The virus is benefitting from the jet age in spreading.

Perhaps she should have been working on her own bill at the same time the Senate was working on that one.

Pelosi unveiling her new stimulus package right now.

Looks like she was working this weekend! Care to take back your criticism?

Exactly when and by whom predicted this pandemic.


In mid January the World Health Organization (WHO) tweeted the following :
Quote:
Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China


Hmmmmmm, I wonder if the WHO has scientists??? Good thing people were listening to them.

Amazing how accurate that tweet was.

Wonder if you will ever go through Donny’s coronavirus tweets and criticize any of his that were inaccurate?

Actually, I don’t wonder....

Technically a pandemic has been predicted for years by more than one agency. YouTube is a good start for the interested. i'm not here to educate the lazy.

Not one Senate Democrat votes for relief bill.

Let that sink in.

Worst disaster of our time and Democrats would rather play politics.

We on the left value real detailed research by scientists
Those on the right such as fleaswatter and Trump depend on maximum 280 characters twitter
lol

What health official in their right mind would depend on tweets to implement public health policy. Maybe a Trump appointee. sad

Technically they would eventually be right. They did not predict this one, just "a pandemic." You cannot prepare for every "maybe."

No. Her package will be more filled with more pork than a BBQ sandwich.

Besides, I am consistent...I believe McConnell and Pelosi should be in town throughout the crisis. Why are members travelling anyway? They expose themselves on both ends to the virus and also many fly commercial. I think Pelosi may have a military jet at her disposal (at least she did before) but the rest of members are regulars on flights out of DC.
