    I didn't say you supported them. I just find it comical for you to pretend like Trump has been uniquely evil or harmful.

    So you have nothing to back up your false assertion. Thanks for clearing that up.

    Once more, fake news nonsense. I'm perfectly willing to examine evidence. It's just that the looney conspiracy nutters have no reliable evidence.

    When it comes to mistreating refugees and executive overreach, yes, he has been.



    I can clear up the claim if you are still going to pretend to not understand it.

    Right.

    So when Bush II lies the country into a war that causes a million Iraqis to die - to say nothing of the trillions of dollars wasted or the tens of thousands of brave, young Americans who were wounded or killed - that doesn't warrant special consideration in your estimation.

    But when Trump engages in some overzealous border enforcement that harms a few thousand people, suddenly you're outraged and appalled.

    I can see you have your priorities all worked out.

    You can clear it up by producing a single post where I cheered for executive overreach, as you implied earlier.

    Of course, you cannot produce one, because it's never happened.

    No reliable evidence... except Sweden, which had no lockdowns and no mask mandate.

    And Japan, which had no lockdown.

    And all the Scandinavian countries, who do not mandate or wear masks.

    And a study from The Lancet which found no association between lockdowns and lower mortality rates.

    And Fauci himself saying there is no reason to go around wearing a mask.

    And on and on and on.

    You just ignore it or dismiss it or attempt to rationalize it somehow. No amount of evidence would ever convince you that you're wrong.

    Maintaining those temperatures is not a problem in specially designed buildings. Distribution is the problem. Pfizer's vaccine shelf life is only around 24 hours if stored in a refrigerator or standard freezer. This drug will not be suitable for mass rapid inoculation or delivery to remote areas. Moderna are claiming that their mRNA vaccine can remain stable in standard freezers and will release their study results soon.

    Oh Biden says he is not close to ready for any vaccine to be used. Says a lot more rigorous testing must come first. Biden can delay vaccines for perhaps 2 full years more.

    Vaccines should always have rigorous testing. We can't just pump out one prematurely because we think it might look good for Trump.

    24 hours is more than enough time to transport the vaccine between specialized storage facilities.

    The same mess that every other country in the world is experiencing?

    I wonder how Trump managed to cause people in Belgium and France and Spain and Italy to die as well.

    Posts 30 and 31 in this very thread.

    You simply ignored them and the evidence they contained, like you always do when I refute your nonsense.

    Nobody pumps them out prematurely. Biden will delay the vaccine, with your loud approval.

    More evidence that COVID hysterics will ignore.

    Sweden, with no lockdowns and no masks, versus Belgium, with harsh lockdowns and nearly universal masking:

    Belgium's strategy of lockdowns and masks is a demonstrable and complete failure.

    Trump has pushed for them to come out prematurely. No, there is no evidence that Biden will magically "delay" any vaccine. But Trump and his followers will continue pushing this mindless nonsense, with your loud approval.

    Arh, someone is really angry. Don't worry, when Trump goes to court over all this fraud, you can watch him lose again.

    Sweden is starting to spike, and doesn't want to do that again.

    If it comes to that, we're going to have to build them. It would be a logistical nightmare.
