He wasn't even able to put his ego aside to use his getting sick to gain political points. The Shrike Send a noteboard - 07/10/2020 12:45:02 PM

After a few days at Walter Reed, President Trump is back at the White House and doing his thing....

I do find it interesting that there's more outrage over his comment of not being afraid of the virus, rather than astonishment over how well he's doing.

Most of the time, the President of the United States getting a notable illness, and then doing well/positive prognosis, would engender more positive than negative.

That idiotic car ride. Then his comments (he does have the best medical care in the world and access to costly experimental treatments). Him getting Covid and the way he handled it is almost as bad as the way he cleared a route to the Church to hold up a Bible.

People SHOULD have a healthy fear of getting Covid. He could have used getting sick so much better than he did.

No. Outside of the scope of Jeordam's example. Do what you want elsewhere. The Shrike - 06/10/2020 12:03:39 AM 260 Views
Why would the GOP... fionwe1987 - 06/10/2020 12:58:08 PM 273 Views
Are we going to start going back further? Then lets talk about the Dems starting all this with Bork. The Shrike - 06/10/2020 04:19:32 PM 253 Views
And? You think Bork deserved confirmation after what he did? fionwe1987 - 07/10/2020 12:55:52 PM 265 Views
I think you're still part of a problem rather than working to be a part of the solution. The Shrike - 07/10/2020 05:05:27 PM 243 Views
This would have more force if you actually had a solution in mind... fionwe1987 - 07/10/2020 06:25:39 PM 269 Views

Amusing. You claim to believe in an Originalist/textualist reading of the Constitution, right ? fionwe1987 - 08/10/2020 12:53:16 PM 259 Views
Honestly? Hilarious. Especially after the whole "big giant mask!" thing at the debate. *NM* TyrReborn - 04/10/2020 10:18:06 PM 123 Views
They still haven't given up on that insane line of attack... fionwe1987 - 05/10/2020 01:29:20 AM 252 Views
Well they were still saying Biden was senile after that debate, so what can we expect? *NM* TyrReborn - 05/10/2020 07:37:35 PM 113 Views

But I don't think that people are in the healthy fear range... Jeordam - 07/10/2020 04:22:22 PM 262 Views
Why do you think that is? fionwe1987 - 07/10/2020 06:28:54 PM 265 Views
Fear is by its very definition, not logical Jeordam - 07/10/2020 07:37:54 PM 259 Views
Do you remember the infamous 'death panels' of the Obamacare debates? Legolas - 07/10/2020 08:15:03 PM 251 Views
I disagree Jeordam - 07/10/2020 09:52:05 PM 269 Views
That's in spite of all the attempts to contain it. You're talking about not trying that anymore. Legolas - 07/10/2020 10:15:12 PM 285 Views

It doesn't require any particularly stupid moves like that to get a bloodbath in nursing homes. Legolas - 07/10/2020 11:24:48 PM 271 Views
No, it is not by definition not logical. What definition of fear are you using? fionwe1987 - 08/10/2020 01:00:23 PM 256 Views
