Fragile Bird Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 I noticed the comment in the last thread that Chris Christie is now in hospital. I see that he drove himself to hospital and checked himself in as a precaution. Must be nice to be able to just check yourself in. For the rest of us we’d probably be told to come back when we’re really sick. He’s already receiving Remdesivir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varysblackfyre321 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Trump's approval rating is up; https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/?ex_cid=irpromo I wonder if he literally just shot someone if it’d get under 40%.

Fragile Bird Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 I was watching Canadian news talking about Trump and the doctors they had on for commentary immediately said Trump must have had trouble breathing, which is an indicator for receiving a course of Remdesivir. I’m hearing the same on CNN now. Meadows said that Trump’s blood oxygen “dropped rapidly” yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorral Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 These shoggoths get the best care available and they get it at the very beginning, which gives them every chance of surviving and doing well. At our expense, of course. Which is why Christie's in the hospital. He isn't even showing symptoms. But he's asthmatic They Say, and we all know from his photos he's obese, so into the hospital he went, to be cared for the second his temp rises with everything that has been learned and devised since March -- with everyone around him wearing the best PPE. Unlike all the rest of us. We wouldn't be checked in even if we requested it. Our insurance wouldn't cover it, for one thing. But his does. With this going one, with the Staten Island rally with people weeping and sobbing as if in medieval times a weeping statue of the Virgin were paraded about with a vial of Christ's blood and sliver of the cross and a thorn from the crown -- and they were frackin' cops and cops' wives and etc. -- begging for divine intervention to give us four more years USA of killing people of color and all the rest! while by and large not even wearing masks and crammed together -- well, it's now official. I despise humanity. It deserves to die out, and it's doing its goddamn best. In the meantime I haven't been to party, been in a restaurant, gone anywhere for going on 7 months. Because of them. Hate them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gertrude Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 So in regards to the Rose Garden Event, I just saw it referred to as "The Red Vetting." Has a nice ring to it. oops, posted this too fast. The Red Spreading was also mentioned, which is better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red Vetting just sounds like Madeline Kahn in Blazing Saddles saying Red Wedding. I agree Red Spreading is better, maybe the best offering I've seen......Rose spreading? Rose flowering? Nah, I suck at this. 18 minutes ago, Simon Steele said: If only Biden had guts...the ability to be honest and not "political." Yeah, that bastard. Being all "political" when he's a politician running for the most important political office in the world in the most important election for that office since at least 1860 during the last month of this political campaign. Why on earth would he ever want to be political? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again - I don’t really see the advantage to Biden calling it out, right now. If Trump makes a recovery and is still in the race, there is plenty of fodder to talk about the number of dead and the suffering and the free hospital stay he got (with crazy expensive experimental treatments) and the administrations personal irresponsibility with himself and with the nation as a whole . But being a dickish at this moment about something pretty obvious to most people is a classic Trump move, and only Trump wins when you play by his toddler rules.

But I don't think Omar's comment was dickish. It was on point. To pretend Trump is worthy of decorum or whatever is just an excuse for the horrid things he's done. I see a poster or two above you defending this, but in reality, they're just defending Trump. This is why Dems lose. They're gutless. They can't even stand up to a monster who is responsible for 200,000 deaths. He's sick, with the same disease. We have to be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are tired of having a dickish moron in the White House with a severe lack of empathy and decency. And you're in all seriousness suggesting being somewhat of a dick is the way to go. This is almost as sound advice, as Palin giving advice to Harris on what to do as a female running mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
