Where is the outrage? There ought to be major investigation of Trump re treatments with antibody

cocktail that he and his wealthy friends have received to get thru their infection of COVID19.

Why isn't there outrage on a spectacular level that medical front line workers such as doctors, nurses, medical assists and medical facility housekeepers can't get the antibody cocktail as they work to save lives and care for the dying while Trump and his super spreaders get special permission from ...TRUMP..to be able to get the this "cocktail?" WTF!!

No doubt the GOP Senators and Reps who have been infected are probably getting the treatment behind the scenes.

The media is letting the country down by not publicizing this and making as big a deal out of it as they are all these ridiculous law suits trying to overturn the 2020 election.

BIDEN HIMSELF OUGHT TO BE OUT IN FRONT WITH PUBLICIZING THIS and vowing to investigate this as soon as possible.

Who would hold it against him? Trump has demonstrated that he does not care about his own base who are actually endangering their own lives to save his and his buddies.

This is outrageous. It ought to be at least an issue addressed int he GA runoffs.

It's difficult to know where to put the little bit of outrage you might have left these days when it comes to tRump and his administration's antics. Everybody knows wealthy and connected people get the good stuff, and while it shouldn't be that way, everybody's just trying to live their lives. It just sucks and you are right, it would be nice if President-elect Biden made this a highly publicized issue.

the constant, unrelenting, unnerving outrage and massive covid19 fatigue caused by the wretched creatures inhabiting the Republican Party , led by a malignant narcissist, enabled sociopath lunatic psycho entrenched in and soiling the Oval Office hourly, that they have reached a level of being utterly, to the bone, overwhelmed.

The media, as well, even on a good news day, are bombarded by bullshit, all around them, constantly.

I was told once by a returning college co-hort who had spent a semester for credit as an aide in Washington to his hometown (Republican) House Representative that once these elected officials get inside the power beltway, they only paid genuine attention to those tens upon tens of millions outside the beltway when they want their vote or their $.
The rest of the country to most of them just didn’t matter as human beings. And this was in the mid 1970’s.
It disillusioned him deeply.

the corrupt and the deplorables. I am tired of not having the Dems become as belligerent as the RW GOP pawns. There seems to be just a muddled "oh they are lying" or "they are being misled." The media keep covering these assholes like they are worthy citizens.
