But, you took a tweet that's From 7, SEVEN years ago and tried to fit it into today. It has no relevance today. Makes no sense why you or whoever would look through thousands of tweets to find one and fit it into some narrative. This shows me that your blinded by your trump hatred
SO because he hasnt' done these two things you mentioned then the President has done nothing? How about this? The US has performed more Covid-19 tests than any other nation thus far...in a shorter time span.Quote:

Also, it's funny you reference an article on the DPA from March 28th. 5 days later the DPA was enacted by the President. Ultimately, though, he has left private owned companies alone and allowed them to support the effort at their own discretion (which they have). To date there is no shortage of ventilators in the US or critical care beds. I would say that some hospitals have struggled but other hospitals in thase same general regions are ghost towns. I think that has a lot to do with mismanagement of resources at the local level by hospitals. (i.e. We are short 5 beds so lets send the patient a county over to the hospital with 25 open ICU beds. Wait...then we don't get paid for them...)
The difference is that Moorhead was in total control of the football team. Trump is not in total control of the US ... per the Constitution.Quote:

I will never look at this God forsaken thread again ..... people, if you want to blame someone then blame those sneaky lying bastards in China ....... I thought y'all were educated
The point is that the *only* defense they have of him is pointing to others. Examples have merits sure, but when you can't even defend the actions on their own and use counter examples to someone who has said the system is broken and needs an overhaul, it does nothing but prove that point as well. I don't think Hillary / Biden would have done a better job. And I think the overarching symptom of the lesser of two evils. is that it continually lowers the bar.Quote:

Moorhead was blamed for bringing Tommy Stevens in but it's Fauci's fault that Trump brought Fauci in. Does that clear up the comparison there?Quote:

Some states like New York would likely still be lost causes, but some states could have fully reopened by now. As it stands we're in limbo. The gripe is that he did not pull in the right directions early enough (and now is pulling in the wrong direction.)
To take a page from the "also blame what about" group. I do blame China as the root of this shit. I also blame our American leaders for not being prepared.Quote:

Just because someone may have a good academic pedigree does not mean they not a complete idiot in real life! Book knowledge does not always equate to wisdom which is the practical ability to use you knowledge to make good decisions consistently throughout your life.Quote:

I don't think so!! Do the math!Quote:

Yeah right! Biden has been absent this entire COVID-19 issue. I wouldn't trust Biden with my pet Airedale.
That is your individual opinion; Noah is quoting from current poling numbers. Sorry.Quote:

I'm not sure what you expect him to do, given that he doesn't currently hold any public office, lol. As the former VP and Dem candidate for POTUS, he has spoken numerous times :re COVID-19, and even developed a plan to combat the virus (see https://joebiden.com/covid19/). Now obviously, you can disagree with his proposed course of action, but it's not "nothing".Quote:

What would they have said if had done some things earlier?
This is where some of you trump haters get confused.
They find ways to undermine and create turmoil
Hell does Biden even know he is running for president?
Polls ... they can be biased too. If I call exclusively into democratic stronghold areas my numbers will be highly skewed. To be truly random this guy or his polling agency will need a good entropy engine, to pick candidates to poll, or his results will not be as random as he thinks.Quote:
