Bottom Line: Trump Has Killed America
Restaurants, football games, movies, jobs, dog shows, state and county fairs, schools, colleges,
universities, friends and family get togethers, health care workers, senior citizens, and on and on .... Trump knew of and was told about the C-19 in Oct. & November of 2019 and this was after he had disbanded the global pandemic task force, fired the CDC's epidmologist who was on the ground, and got us out of PREDICT that was on the ground in Wuhan, China looking for the coronavirus up until Sept. 2019. Bottom Line: Trump Has Killed America

4. So many "normal things" and businesses are now gone and I don't see them coming back.
This virus is not going anywhere for a longtime. Donny jusd had to get rid of those people and
protocols that would have stopped the virus in China because those people and protocols were "the black guy's idea." One of my simple joys was going to the neat little local restaurant and reading a book as I sat at an outside table. That business is now gone. |

9. Rick Wilson spent his career putting it within Trump's grasp
Every Republican who put winning and "playing hardball" ahead of looking where they were taking their party handed the fruits of their labor over to Trump.

10. Absolutely right!
If memory serves, Wilson was part of the organized riots during the Florida (non)recount in 2000.
He and his ilk are enemies of our enemy. That is all. Should Biden win the election, I expect the Lincoln Project, et al. will give him 6 months tops before they once again begin their partisan bullshit. Still, his maxim is correct: Everything Trump touches dies. |

3. Only part of America is dead...
So we need to carve out the dead parts and try to heal what's left.

5. Republicans have killed America
They spent decades creating a voter base that would love a guy like Trump.
They have backed him at every turn. None of them have taken on the task of forming an intra-party opposition to him. None of them took action. They had the chance to rid the country of him, but backed him all the way despite all they knew. Republicans are the ones who've (nearly) killed America, and are leaving it to Democrats to do the hard work of reviving the patient while they continue to set fire to the hospital. |

7. One of the big things in America's downfall into whatever you want to call "all of this" was ....
... Ronald Reagan's getting rid of the fairness doctrine and that has allowed 2.5 generations
of Americans to be bathed in complete right wing misinformation. |

6. I hate my new normal
I miss my friends, my former life ... my freedom to go places and activities where other people gathered ...
I have been wearing a mask everywhere since March 1 ... usually, in my small town, I am the only one doing so ... Cases are now climbing .... maybe someday it will change ... but it won’t get better for a long time. All because there was reverse leadership... not a lack thereof ... from this maladminstration. |
