But here's something I don't take at face value. Trump has aggressively downplayed Covid-19 from day one, and now the White House says he has "mild symptoms." But if people suspect it's worse than that, who could blame them?

People don't appreciate being treated like children or being exposed to unnecessary dangers by their government's dismissing of threats. I've been saying for a while that if Trump loses it'll be because of how he's handled Covid-19 and how he dishonored the nation's war dead. If the news media had focused on those issues instead of making everything about the police and black people for weeks, Trump would be further behind than he is.Last edited by Trey Strain; 10-02-2020, 03:54 PM.

No matter what you believe about how Trump or any other official at a lower level handled COVID it's definitely a damned-if-you-do/damned-if-you-don't case. Much less could have been done and things might've been much worse, but no one is going to champion that.
On the other hand, if we immediately did a super strict lock down (as some smaller countries have done), there would be backlash on rights violations and claims of ruining the economy (both of which are happening at the current level).
There is definitely no way to handle a situation like this that would please all your constituents.

"You think I did a bad job? Look how much better a job I did than the fictional job I've invented my opponent doing! I save 1.8 million lives compared to HIM!"Last edited by TazzMission; 10-02-2020, 05:40 PM................................................... ..........................

He's having trouble breathing and is sicker than Melania.

BTW, let me be fair to Trump here. This is not the first time Americans have been lied to about a president's health. JFK flat-out lied to a reporter when he told him he didn't have Addison's disease. And Ronald Reagan was much closer to death after the assassination attempt on him than anyone admitted at the time.
But still, it fucking sucks when you have to EXPECT to be lied to about things like this.
Just tell the truth! We can handle it!
