Oh, good! I'm sure the people caring for patients without the requisite PPE and tests will take great relief in knowing this.

I could be wrong, but expect Trump to personalize Biden's stuttering, misstatements, gaffes, losing his train of thought, etc., i.e., anything that he can use to cast Biden as feeble-minded or demented, to a level unlike anything we've ever seen before.

Ugh, no doubt Trump will do so.

And regardless of how the next 6 months pan out, he’ll be quick to remind us of what a great job he’s done.

He’s also likely to try and delegitimize any outcome not favorable to himself, at the very least.

I’m more curious what the general republican narratives will be, and whether - or rather, to what degree, they will continue to march in step with Trump.

You've lost it.

I mean, of course people are going to be opportunistic during a pandemic, people always are. Every press conference Trump is spinning the data to look good, same with Gov. Cumo, hell look at the multi-million dollar corporations who got federal money because of the pandemic. Sure there are people using this pandemic to their advantage and its mostly gross.

But the pandemic is not a conspiracy. The virus is real. People are really sick and many have lost their lives. How could you orchestrate a conspiracy on a global scale like this. What's in it for Germany, what's in it for Trump, or Pence, or Fauci, what's in it for China, what's in it for the doctors and nurses and everyone else who is all a part of this global conspiracy.

I don’t dispute that the virus is real. I dispute its origins, it’s severity, and the speed at which health officials are being allowed to address it. It is a vehicle to set Agenda 21 in place and collapse our economy. Ask yourself how Bill Gates and multiple other Fortune 500 heads knew to sell off their shares and disassociate themselves from their respective companies before the first of the year. It doesn’t make sense if you see the world as discrete countries and governments, but the people driving this are shooting for global control that will require a drastically reduced population, people who have ceded their individual rights out of fear, and a military in place to impose martial law. This is a giant crock of b.s. straight out of the annals of Orwell and Huxley.

What’s amazing is that you’re actually dumb enough to think things like this happen randomly.
