This would probably cost him the elections, if there ever will be one again anytime soon.

A lot of people on this forum ignored the warnings too.

The old posts from January and February are a comedy goldmine.

Well, actually it is more correct to say: I repeat it only because I'm convinced it's true.
The same applies to me.

To suggest you have access to unmitigated/absolute truth isn't realistic.
It also suggests you may be inflexible.

While I am very rarely wrong, (I am The Oracle of Truth after all), 8)
I try to maintain a scientific approach and remain openminded so as to integrate new information/enlightenment.

Please don't hate me for expressing *my* "Truth". :wink:

Yeah its awful and so unfair when people simply repeat direct quotes from Trump or repost his tweets or simply play video clips of him speaking. :lol:


It is also unfair when people "cherrypick" "his tweets or simply play video clips of him speaking" that suits a political agenda. :mrgreen:

Don't get me wrong.
I'm not a Trump fanboy.
I'm just not a fan of partisan politics, either way.

Trump is *very* entertaining, though, and does seem to get a lot wrong.
Typical alpha male NT ego at play here. :wink:

If Biden becomes the Democratic nominee (which will more than likely happen), The Orange Cheeto will have a lock on the election in November, sinceBiden, in my not so humble opinion, is even dumber than And just as corrupt as the Dumpster Fire.

Your elections are going to be fun to watch.
Well, if you are in another continent and surrounded by a moat, as I am.

I have never taken an interest in an American election before.
This time coming will be different. :wink:

I think there are politicians, media outlets and even coronavirus experts who feel the same way, and therefore they would say and do anything to try keeping him from being reelected.


Considering that Trump was first calling the virus a hoax, and then how we learned Trump had done away with the medical professionals who Obama had left to handle such a situation, if anyone actually wants to kill Trump's Presidency with this, then they're pretty well justified.
I've heard how the right makes the disease experts out to be Anti-Trump. The fact that they choose to believe their orange messiah who constantly spews inaccuracies about the virus over the actual experts tells me something about their judgement. Then there's the whole matter of how the right blatantly doubts the validity of science in general which is a big part of this.

No I am talking about the rhetoric that comes out of highly partisan sources.

As for the video, you can tell from all the little jumps that it was spliced together.

What surprises me, is that, according to Tony Attwood, autistics have a great tendency *not* to be partisan.
I comply with his expectations, go figure. :scratch:

OOPS!
You mean source *outside* this website.
My bad. :mrgreen:

Extreme partisanship skews the truth.

Well then, everything I know about Trump and this virus situation makes me believe I'm right.
