    If someone is invited somewhere and show up, what’s the problem? Are the invited guests wrong to attend, or is the invitation alone the issue? Are the invitees intellectually deficient for showing up to something you think shouldn’t have happened? Why do you think you know better than them what’s best?

    I don’t know better, I rely on the medical and other experts.

    Ahhh. Therein lies the problem. You won’t apply reason or logic to what you are told by others.

    Of course I do which is why I view President Trump’s conduct regarding Covid as vey poor. Further, this is the reason he lost my vote

    Well Sheite... I hope it was defiant & necessarily divisive (subjective interpretation btw), lol... The opposition running against him is an anathema to him / us... (U do realize that - I hope) ? :)

    U do understand - We his base of Constitutionalistic / Nationalistic Americans do NOT want to find 'common ground' / 'cross the aisle' with what the Democrat Party has morphed into... Lets be explicitly clear on that!!!

    How can a person who has never read the constitution be a constitutionalist?

    Well, according to medical experts social distancing guidelines are to be at least 6 ft apart. Was Trump at least 6 feet away from those at the event? Yes or no? If "yes" then Trump was being responsible. If "no" then he wasn't. What say you?

    That was the people. Not Trump. Are you blaming Trump for how other adults behaved? You're Republican remember? Personal Responsibility. Which means blaming others for what someone else has/hasn't done is not done when you believe in personal responsibility. Was Trump at least 6ft away from them? Yes or no?

    This is impossible.

    Trump is not only playing for his political future, but above all for his financial future.

    If he isn't re-elected, nothing will prevent his creditors from jumping on him when he becomes a private citizen.

    In fact, they're just waiting for that.

    What will his creditors jump on him for? Creditors sign contracts in which payments are made over a set certain time frame and when that time frame is up that is when they collect any remainder. Not before.

    Clearly, you don't run a business.

    & are you qualifying your assertion based on the ___'n MSM ... ? OMG the diatribe that I am prone to embark on would be epic - but I don't want more PF 'spanking' points... Have you actually thought this through - after reviewing all the facts... ?

    You didn't answer the question. Was Trump at least 6 feet away from the crowd? Yes or no? And I'll add another one. What is the recommended distance for social distancing in order to avoid getting covid per the CDC?

    You think so?

    You ever had a line of credit, an asset-backed loan?

    You should read the fine print.

    A bank can recall its loan at any time if it feels there is too great a risk that it will never be repaid.

    Deutsch Bank waits until Trump is no longer POTUS to put the Trump Org out of business and get its money back by selling Donald's real estate assets.

    In max 18 months, Trump will be out of business.

    Trump should have exercised greater control and provided a safer environment. He was the host, he set the rules

    I was referring to our president, who says things like "I'll take the guns first, and worry about due process later."
