One of the Republicans biggest stumbling blocks is that Obamamcare basically is the Republican health care plan, so finding any plan to the right of that which still gives people enough health benefits simply isn't going to work. But they made a lot of hay railing against Obamacare, so now they can't really endorse it. They put themselves in a box on that one.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding or i havent heard of this. Do you mean the way things seem to go in that the vast majority of infected survive covid or is there different severeties of the virus outside of co morbidities?
I just meant things seem to work out for President Trump in his favor.
Those people are all corrupt. They like to project onto others all the shit they themselves are doing. Can’t forget about Brad Pasquale or whatever and him scamming the trump campaign himself lmao
Exactly. “It was just like the flu” “Hydroxychloroquine worked like a charm, everybody should try it” “I’m the healthiest president in our country’s history” etc.
He is most definately going to say this if he recovers whether or not he used it (most likely he's not), and that's not good.
Yep for the 29 million closed cases 96% survived.
What scares me about it isn't what could happen to me, a healthy 20 year old man, but that I could be an asymptomatic carrier and give it to a morbidly obese person, someone who is immunocompromised, an elderly person, or someone with a respiratory condition. And not even know it... If covid wasn't contagious or if asymptomatic carriers couldn't transmit I wouldn't give less of a fuck about it in terms of how I go about my day / behave.
Yeah the Democrats cucked Bernie twice, who woulda definitely been a more dangerous opponent than Hillary or Biden.
Unless Trump dies, I don't see Biden winning, but anything is possible at this point. I think our country is heading for a civil war no matter who wins.
I'm not sure I'd call this luck. If Trump had displayed confident and competent leadership in the face of COVID and managed the crisis well, it would be a huge mark in his favor going into the election. Instead, he (we now know) knowingly misled the US, and basically put his head in the sand when it came to guidelines, PPE, and everything else.
Some leaders in the world came out of the pandemic stronger politically. Even in my country the incredibly stupid president who tried really hard to botch his own popularity still came out with support in parts of the population he didn't really have too much of a backing on. From what I hear Trump hugely botched this entire year and Biden might just win by virtue of not being Trump;
You underestimate the stupidity of many Americans. A very large number still support Trump, and even think he’s done a great job handling the virus. I live in Florida and Trump is quite popular here.
Berni was screwed in 2016, but he lost fair and square in 2020.
In Ohio, the "match up" seems even, which is what the polls also indicate. Ohio is a moderate, arguably right-leaning, state. Trump would easily win if he acted like a normal human being.
