Nolte: You Get What You Vote For and in Democrat-Run Cities You Get Riots

[Boatswain2PA]

how else do you explain the difference between what the experts said and our results? If Trump somehow would be to blame for 100k deaths because his policies, using the same perverse logic he should be credited with saving 2.1 million.

Or, reasonable people could just say a virus killed 100k Americans.

The President is always blamed for bad events that take place during his watch. That has been a fact of the system since 1776.

 

[Boatswain2PA]

really? Was FDR blamed for Pearl Harbor? was Obama blamed for the SARS or Seime virus outbreaks.

Nope. Funny that they were both Dems.

 

[StudentMI]

Ok. Then I guess it didn’t rise to the level of 100000 deaths from COVID.

Yes numbers are all important when talking about moral wrongs. Just don’t ever claim Obama was for good.

 

[Boatswain2PA]

So, you agree that we didnt know, and worse yet we didnt know what we didnt know.

Yet you blame Trump why? Because he wasnt omnipresent and omnipotent?

Im glad you are not taking everything as an insult anymore. That shows some maturation and personal growth.

 

[StudentMI]

Why do I need to do what you tell me?

You know what I meant. And it’s fine, Bahrain will always be in the back of your head now when talking about Obama. Remember the victims of Bahrain.

 

[StudentMI]

I don’t have to do what you tell me though. Ever.

I’m sorry if you took offense at an off the cuff remark that was not a command.

 

[StudentMI]

I will accept that you did not intend it that way by your vigorous defense and my opinion that you are a sincere person.

Thank you as it was not a command. I understand how you can have viewed it that way. Not intended.

 

[sallybutler]

You really aren’t up on your conspiracy theories are you? To this day there are people who are positive that FDR let Pearl Harbor happen.

And if I remember correctly, everyone was pretty had on the Obama administration of the Oil Spill. And let’s not forget Benghazi (didn’t the hand wringing and pearl clutching on that one go on for 6 years?).

Basically Presidents get the blame and none of the credit by whoever is their opposition.

 

[StudentMI]

Well Stimson did write in his diary it was matter of getting the Japanese to fire the first shot…

Yes, I realize there is a radical element who believes FDR let it haopen, we didnt really walk on the moon, and Trump killed 100k Americans.

i dont think anyone who believes these things are very bright.

 

[JonNC]

Yes, it was in the president’s action a

There was no extortion, no bribery, no quid pro quo.

The denial runs deep.

The coup attempt runs deep.

7_Sorrows:

Your argument has no foundation. President Trump has not killed anyone.

No, he has just failed to address a threat to Americans so badly that 100000+ are dead.

This is so remarkably false. Dr. Fauci has said that the President said yes to everything they asked him to do.

If he just had followed the example of that great progressive Democrat hero Woodrow Wilson during the pandemic of 100 years ago.

The virulent influenza emerged in the last year of World War I, incubated in American army camps and spread overseas on troop ships. By the time the influenza finally burned itself out, over 45,000 Americans in uniform and some 600,000 American civilians were dead of the disease. It’s estimated that the Spanish flu killed 50 million worldwide.
…

Frankly, I don’t think Wilson gave much attention to the flu,” John M. Cooper, emeritus professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, tells RealClearInvestigations. “From going through his papers, there just isn’t much there,” says Cooper, the dean of Wilson scholars.

Woodrow Wilson's Strange Silence on Flu Epidemic During Great War

“President Woodrow Wilson had been extraordinarily close-mouthed about the epidemic from the first,” writes Sandra Opdycke in “The Flu Epidemic of 1918."

Thank goodness Trump acted.

 

[Boatswain2PA]

And yet, strangely, Wilson isnt blamed for “KILLING MILLIONS OF AMERICANS!!!” like Trump is blamed for “KILLING 100,000 AMERICANS!!!”.

Oh yeah, Wilson was a liberal democrat, so cant be blamed.

I wish he had been a liberal. He was a progressive.
It could be argued that he was also responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of American soldiers in WW I, as well.

 

[Boatswain2PA]

yes, poor choice of words. He ws the prototypical ILliberal, intolerant ptogressive leftist. I think he and Obama are much alike.

And yet folks like Nancy Pelosi become Remarkably wealthy By being in Congress.

And Republican folks as of a 2018 report of Top 15:
1 Greg Gianforte 137 Million
2 Michael McCall 113 Million
4 Vern Buchanan 74 Million
7 Trey Hollingsworth 50 Million
8 Chris Collins 43 Million
9 Paul Mitchell 37 Million
13 Roger Williams 28 Million
15 Francis Rooney 23 Million

Pelosi did not even make the cut in that report.

Maybe google the source of Pelosi’s Wealth.

 

[ProVobis]

Thank goodness Trump acted.

Before or after he called it a “new hoax”?

 

[StudentMI]

Maybe google the source of Pelosi’s Wealth.

I get that she’s worth 16.0 million. Her husband is very wealthy.

Still, I wouldn’t be surprised. I tend to lean towards the most cynical take imaginable when it comes to politicians.
