Re: Covfefe-19: Do What Now?
During the impeachment ramp up, hearings and trial I wondered what kinds of private conversations democratic members of congress were having with their republican counterparts. Were the behind the scenes discussions as much of a joke as the ones held in public?
I think when this is over, the democrats must go on the offensive and speak in no uncertain terms how dangerous the current republican party is to the literal health and safety of Americans. People like Burr are literally complicit in the deaths of people. Their direct and intentional inaction is why people are only now grasping concepts of the seriousness of this that, had they grasped them just 10-14 days earlier would have save lives and additionally saved countless healthcare dollars.
In addition to the trillions of dollars of wealth that just disappeared like a fart in the wind, we will be spending trillions of unnecessary dollars on healthcare, some of it in futile efforts to save people who we just not will be able to save. Republicans have behaved in a criminal and even treasonous ways. If you believe in the death penalty some of these people frankly are probably prime targets of capital punishment. If you don't, they still deserve to rot behind bars for decades or forever.
The death and destruction won't be on the same scale as it was during the civil war (hopefully) but the level of treasonous behavior on the part of a lot of republicans certainly has been. Not all of them. As trump is famous to point out, not all of them are criminals. Some of them are fine people. But if there was ever a deserved pasting with a broad brush, what is currently constituting the republican party in the United States deserves to be slathered liberally. I hope all the complicit ones rot in a hell far worse than the one people like Charles Manson is probably rotting in.

) You’d expect these packed together on a ship in quarantine to be all infecting each others. And yet… 4,061 passengers and crew were examined, on board what effectively became an unintentional virus incubator. Only 712 contracted the virus (about 17.5%), of which 334 asymptomatic (8.2% of the total), leaving 378 (9.3% of the total) ill. Only 7 people died (1.85% of those ill, or 0.17% of all passengers and crew examined), all of them age 70 or older. (Remember, the passenger population is skewed toward the elderly.)
These mega-church <strike>pastors</strike> thieves make my blood boil. Local pastors are more concerned with well being, and this con-artist is making sure he still gets his paycheck.
