Because if they didnt shift the blame to orange bad man from the true culprits- the democratic governors of those states, then where would we find our CNN MSN narratives?

Surely the controversial travel ban must have spread the China virus somehow. And Trump's cavalier attitude must have weakened our immune systems.

Brb "experts" claim that even if everything is done perfectly the number of deaths will be hundreds of thousands

Brb medical establishment does everything they can to inflate numbers including intentionally getting old people sick

Brb majority of deaths in dem states

Brb 200k died because Trump's fault, didn't handle it properly

And people still listen to these retards.

Harris kept bragging she was on the senate intel committee yesterday.

Pence should have called her out when she was talking about Trump and Pence knew since january blah blah blah because the senate intel committee was also briefed on corona in January and WTF did she do?

These debates have all around been terrible, so much crap they could have called each other on and all they do is launch into rehearsed speeches.

Pence also failed to bring up all the times she called Biden racist in 2019 which would have been a huge ether.


Moderator also specifically asked her what she and Biden would have done differently and all she did was rehash her speech on how bad Drumpf is and not actually answer the question on what she would have done, besides vague chit like der her have more PPE and tests, by what by magic?

The irony is there's a trade-off. I could have kept the number of deaths lower. Anyone could have by going full on nazi and locking everyone in a bubble.

But everything comes at a price. Sure Biden might have chosen steps that resulted in lower COVID deaths, but your naive if you think it wouldn't have raised unemployment, failed businesses, and a broken economy that would take even longer to fix.

So yeah, pretty much anybody in the world COULD have had lower numbers if put in charge of this whole thing.

But it's not a 1 dimensional issue here. Anyone who can't see that or tries to run on that platform shouldn't be in charge period.

Even with that inflated 200k number, their own data says 65% of those 200k were OVER 85 years old. Those people were going to die in the next year anyways.

OK, now we have 70k deaths under 85, how many of those people had cancer, HIV, all this other chit? They were going to die anyways, but if they have a covid test, the same ones that had positives on a grapefruit sample, then its an instant covid death.

The entire thing is political theater.

Ron Klain, who served as chief of staff to Biden before being appointed to serve as President Barack Obama's "Ebola Czar," said at the National Press Club in 2019:

I was in the White House in 2009 and 2010, and I was working for Vice President Biden. I wasn't involved directly in the H1N1 response, but I lived through it as a White House staffer, and what I would say about it is: A bunch of really great, really talented people were working on it and we did every possible thing wrong.
Klain continued, "Sixty million Americans got H1N1 in that period of time, and it's just purely a fortuity that this isn't one of the great mass casualty events in American history."

He added, "It had nothing to do with us doing anything right. It just had to do with luck."

Biden has a long history of political corruption and racism. Possibly with Klan ties. Nobody gives a single fukk.

As far as Harris. I don't think she's a racist but an argument can be made that she built her career on exploiting the black community. She literally spent her entire career as part of a system in a position of power/leadership/control and has a history of unethical behavior.


The game is just call Trump a racist long enough so plebs start to believe it. Even though they can't provide a single example of racism by Trump. Ignore the past of Biden and Harris which involves a lifetime of everything they now campaign against. I honestly believe evidence could surface that Biden participated in lynchings and it would be ignored/discredited by the same people calling Trump racist. Lmao.

Let's face it. All politicians were to blame. They should have shut down flights from China last year in December. But they were all too busy with the impeachment nonsense.

Of course it doesn't make that much sense given that it's a world pandemic, not a country one.

200k deaths is a really great shadow puppet don't you think? Not really. The mental mind isn't much of a prison for the audience if you can just walk right out. If you really want to keep people in a cave, then all you have to do is get them addicted to drugs and tell them that in order to buy more drugs, they have to live in a cave and perform shadow puppets for an audience.

Then they will stay in the cave forever, and maybe even like it there. And maybe if they perform well enough, then they will actually begin to believe their own performance. The real world is scary and not at all what they imagined it to be, plus they have no friends and their family is insufferable and they needed a cave to stay in anyway.

So it works out perfectly for you.

They love to say 200k deaths from covid, but fail to realize over four million people die every year in the U.S.

How many of these people would’ve died in 2020 with or without covid?

There’s a trend with all the people that are dying too.... elderly and obese

People die everyday!

Why would you even think to say or score it as Trump=200,000 vs Biden=0.
That is silly talk! What it should be is what federal rules would we have implemented earlier(Feb) to have less than 200,000 when he was talking to Bob Woodward about it being airborne and 5 times worse than the flu?

Anyone who thinks that things would be demonstrably different with someone else in charge is stupid. The only thing that would have made a difference is a severe lockdown. That's about it. Everything else is simply about delaying the inevitable.

I live in CA and we're far more influenced by our governor than Trump (along with everyone else in every other state), and even Newsome can't do anything about it.

Yeah, but can't blame that on any sitting Pres. He will be undermined by politics. States are Blue and Red. One race won't listen to a Leader from another race, etc..

Another example, my inlaws are hispanic. They all said "yeah, we are on lockdown, let's all gather at Abuela's house and bring her food. " There is no stopping some subcultures from doing what they do.

That’s all pretending that there’s actually 210k deaths. But if there was only 1 death, it would be all Trumps fault.

I find validity in the statement. My tucker-watching father in law drove the point home early on that the virus was extremely serious and to take it seriously and to wear a mask in public. This was in early february. I didnt do anything until mid march.
Cases were rising dramatically in our area and I actually wore one of my work masks at the grocery store before it was required, and people looked at me like I had four heads. A few weeks later we were completely shut down. If there had been stronger leadership at the start because stupid people need to be led, we would maybe see numbers more in like with the rest of the developed world. You cant point out countries like sweden and say, well they never locked down, because their people all voluntarily adapted and understood what was happening. We have massive cities here full of giant ****heads. That being said I dont believe the virus has killed many who wouldnt have died anyways and hasnt overloaded the hospitals.
