of at least a half-million Americans is to argue — nonsensically — that the virus came out of the Wuhan virology lab and therefore something, something, something Trump is not responsible. He’s doing this with House Oversight Committee hearings this week.
No, he didn’t “let people die”.
He actively contributed to those deaths.
Right wing media spent the entire pandemic fighting against distancing, masks, vaccines, against science. And pretending horse dewormer was a miracle solution for everything. But it turns out reality isn’t a political opinion, and millions of people died because of those lies.
When humanity was fighting against covid, Republicans were fighting on the virus’ side
But at the very beginning, there was one moment where they said we didn’t need masks, so all of your points are refuted! /s
I know you’re being sarcastic but I still want to punch you. So fucking sick of that shit.
In general, we were lucky that the epidemic wasn’t something worse. Imagine the governmental failure during an Ebola pandemic.
Something worse is coming, and based on what happened this time, I’m terrified.
it happens at least once every hundred years, doesn’t mean it won’t happen sooner but it will happen again
I can’t get over how 1.1 million Americans died and people are acting like it was bullshit.
Imagine a war causing that many deaths. There would be statues and a memorial holiday. All I got was a slightly diminished sense of smell and grandma’s house.
Yup who knows how many people got long covid, chronic fatigue, do we even know all the effects?
Yes, emphatically YES!
There was a dramatic shift in tone from the Trump White House during the early COVID days once it was realized that the virus outbreak centered on urban areas.
And it was incredibly obvious to anybody paying attention.
And it was also painfully obvious that once it bit into rural areas, it was going to extract even more blood.
Trump lost GA by less votes than people who died of Covid before the election in GA.
His administration stole supplies meant for liberal states and gave them to conservatives.
So, ugh , yes.
Worse, they sold much of it to the Sauds. Some of the very first shipments of masks and sanitizer.
Yes. Kushner also stole medical equipment and PPE to sell it to other nations.
Are you serious?
Look into why the government of Massachusetts had to borrow the New England Patriots’ jet to smuggle PPE to Boston.
Yes. All billionaires do this every single day they don’t donate the majority of their wealth.
Generous to assume he’s that rich.
He did, and it cost him the election. I know more than a few people who voted for him the first time, but switched to Biden due to Trump’s COVID denial.
Not political reasons, just personal greed. He was busy being a bean salesman when we needed a president.
When you side with Trump, you’re siding with Genocide Denial.
Foremost the virus was not Trump’s fault it came out of Wuhan Lab. To answer the question Trump localized the burden of command to the states. Governors then took executive action. In Michigan Whitmore decided to put infected patients with COVID in nursing homes effectively killing the elderly. Was that Trump’s fault?
The pandemic is a convenient culture war battle ground for each side to spite the other. My opinion won’t be popular but my life doesn’t stop where your fear begins. I completely disregarded all orders and rules then worked as normal. I was the first to demask. You wouldn’t believe how many people thanked me as they walked into the store and took off their mask after seeing one man simply dissenting against the bullshit.
Most ppl wore bandanas or surgical masks which were not designed as shields against germs. One was designed so doctors would not spit into patients during surgery. It was never meant to be worn for 8 hours. Now ppl have micro plastics in their lungs. They’re certainly not respirators which several liberals tried to convince me they were.
I know the liberals will whine and bitch that the uneducated republicans are killing everyone. But will they call Whitmore out? Will they call out AOC who was dining out in public in Florida and sunbathing on a crowded beach as her constituents were under authoritarian lockdown measures? No.
It’s just Trump derangement syndrome and culture war bullshit. Most liberals jabbed from the very vaccine made possible by Warp Speed and Trump’s executive action.
I’m not going to say Trump’s actions were perfect. Biden and the DNC decried Trump’s decision to ban international flights from China and other places as racism during the pandemic.
I’m just sick of the bullshit. It’s not all Trumps fault. The democrats had their stinky hands in the COVID deaths too.
You wouldn’t believe how many people thanked me as they walked into the store and took off their mask after seeing one man simply dissenting against the bullshit.
More and more people are saying it, folks
Why is this even phrased as a question?
A fun past time of the Trump years has been the articles and videos and such adjudicating whether or not Trump did something that usually we saw him do on TV, at a campaign rally, or through often multiple audio recordings.
“It’s fake news! I never did that, never said that!” (except on the video…
Uhhhhh he was a politician, don’t they all?
The far right wants you to think all politicians are bad to make you stop thinking about politics.
To make you stop thinking about your rights.
To make you stop fighting.
Yes and Biden is doing the same thing by pretending the pandemic is over and even saying he no longer thinks about the pandemic. Its pathetic.
We’re living through a mass disabling event and the leaders are ignoring it. Upwards of 10% of infections causes long covid. People get infected on average 2/3 times a year.
And +90% of those infections are among the unvaccinated that STILL refuse to wear masks. It’s nmo one’s fault but their own for believing trump and certainly not Bidens’s fault.
Y’all are downvoting me because im not kissing Biden’s ass? Trump is a fascist prick who did terrible.
Biden is the current president. Biden hasnt mentioned getting boosters. No one is getting boosters and they arent even updated in time for the new variants. The vaccine efficacy wanes in 6 months. Biden hasn’t mentioned air purifiers, CR Boxes, ventilation, or masks.
Biden is the current leader and is leading the US to reinfections which cause brain damage, organ damage, and disabilities.

If there was a group opposite of Q then it has to be the majority of commenters located right here.
The thing you have in common is believing the most wild, outlandish, baseless conspiracies imaginable.
It would honestly be somewhat impressive if it weren’t so juvenile.
Oh fuck off.
Do you not remember the private planes being guarded by National Guard troops because the feds were stealing PPE?
To be fair: most politicians do. I remember the French 2002 presidential elections. Chirac ordered speed traps disabled to get voters. Around 600 people died because of him. Small chance for a presidential mandate.
You shared a single example and then extrapolated that to most. To be fair: that’s a bullshit long sword you drew.
Okay, I’ll share more: global warming, pollution. Of course there is also war for oil or to get reelected, cuts in social aids and healthcare, homeless people dying in the street. Anyway, you’re such a friendly person, have a great day.
Statements aren’t examples.
Anyway.
