.......... or you could just be honest to people and practice proper enforcement procedures and not be a raving impulsive lunatic? Philippines governments have been marginalizing their people and oppressing them economically for pretty much their entire history... it's a corrupt country almost beyond help. You think that goof cares about his people? He just cares about his image.

Just thank your lucky stars you live in Canada. Everyone I know that lives in shit countries is on their own when it's all fucked like this... people here be whining like "I can't pay my rent and eat out every day can Trudeau hurry and send me money?" but people in all these other places are like fuck I can't work and there's no money from no government and I can't eat and I'm going to be homeless in 2 weeks and I have no medicare... like... if the virus doesn't kill me, destitution will.

I certainly thought of the "cops giving out too many VI's" thread when I saw cops here beating the living shit out of protesters and press, and even random citizens. Before the courts closed due to the virus, almost every case that came through had to be rescheduled, because defendants are constantly too injured to appear.

I think Canadians are the most spoiled people on earth. That's part of why I post shit here so much. I hope I've opened some eyes. It was certainly hard convincing people that the virus was a serious issue for other people, and now they are getting a taste of it. Just a small taste, because they are in a fucking awesome country that will take care of them.

Mostly I just want people to be aware of their privilege while considering things, and certainly before speaking up on matters.

I personally think Biden would have been worse at dealing with this, or at least be worse at being able to communicate to the American people. Trump is a great talker, Biden is not.

Trump is a great talker? LOL are you serious?

I can't even make it more than 2 minutes into anything he speaks at! He never says anything, it's a complete word salad every time! He goes in circles, doesn't answer questions, doesn't understand what he's talking about, throws out insults when cornered on anything, stumbles over words, doesn't pronounce or enunciate common words properly, and even when he's reading pre-prepared material he pauses and has trouble figuring out what words are next because he didn't even care enough to read it over beforehand!

He's a complete shitshow speaking in public FailFish

Ludepower 04-02-2020 09:48 AM

Why the heck bring up Biden right now? Kinda pointless when this is in Trumps lap. Pay attention on the utter incompetence before our very eyes right now.

They have the virus ping ponging across state lines because the dear leader doesn't wanna call a national quarantine. This isnt business as usual by Easter.

Biden put out the attack ad, which is why I brought it up.

GS8 04-02-2020 10:21 AM

Left? Right? Who gives a flying shit. All levels of the US government failed its people. From the misinformation to the lack of transparent information, it became pretty obvious that a nation that loves to interfere with other nations can't protect its own.

Oh, but that xenophobia card though...


There were already infections in the US in late Jan and yet throughout Feb, large social gatherings took place. How well did all that play out?

And fuck the WHO as well. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was accused of covering up not 1 but 3 cholera outbreaks in his country of Ethiopia.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/13/h...outbreaks.html

The WHO has been praising China for some time so Covid-19 is nothing new. It's just a long running pattern of disease disbelief until infection and death rates soar and by then, the governments are already behind.

Trump on having nuclear:

"Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart—you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you're a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us."

Man, I don't even know where to start at that.

Trump is a performer, so if we're talking about who's a better performer between the two, Trump clearly. He's a game show host ffs.

Biden would never be my first pick as president out of the options available, not a chance, as I'm concerned with his age and mental capacity.

My agreement with the ad had nothing to do with Biden, but the substance of the ad itself. It's effective, and it's true.

Let's skip the whataboutism here.

11 states still don't have stay at home orders. This is only going to make this last much longer. Some states are going to have outbreaks weeks if not months after others. Also, states are fighting over the same supplies driving up prices.


Bouncing Bettys 04-03-2020 07:20 AM

Trump trying to win the progressive vote too? Interesting times.

MG1 04-08-2020 07:41 AM

It's not official yet, but looks like Bernie is set to drop out of the running, leaving Joe Biden as the candidate to go up against Dotard.


https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/08/polit...out/index.html


Looks like it's official.

SiRV 04-08-2020 08:09 AM

Trump 2020 - it's official. Biden is not even a shadow of his former self, Trump's gonna run loops on him and Biden will still think its 1989.

Sanders would never have won the presidential race even if he were the chosen Democratic candidate. He is far too much of a socialist for the capitalistic America.

unit 04-08-2020 09:18 AM

^polling often suggested otherwise. if the other candidates actually endorsed the guy after they dropped out then i think he would have been a shoe in. trump will lose some support over his handling of covid. he keeps moving the goal posts and now 200k deaths is considered a success, when just a few weeks ago he was already projecting business to return back to normal by easter. the downplaying of the severity of the situation will probably cost the US tens of thousands of lives.

In 2016, many progressives opted not to vote, rather than vote Hillary. This time around, I think we will some of those people openly vote Trump.

Biden doesn't even know what year it is.

It's pretty clear why their attempts to install democracy in other countries always fails: they aren't even a democracy themselves.
