When I think about it, even if it's 50% it's better than nothing... I think I'm skeptical of antibody testing though. What difference does that make? You can still get a mutation or something/still have to be careful and keep on washing your hands fourteen times an hour
Trump is once again trying to wield his perceived absolute authority. Trump claims authority to issue order on mail-in votes Associated Press August 3, 2020 Trump claims authority to issue order on mail-in votes excerpt: "Trump has increasingly sought to cast doubt on November’s election and the expected pandemic-induced surge in mail-in and absentee voting — particularly as he has found himself trailing in public and private polling. Trump has called remote voting options the “biggest risk” to his reelection. His campaign and the Republican Party have sued to combat the practice, which was once a significant advantage for the GOP. There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud through mail-in voting and the states that use it exclusively say they have necessary safeguards in place to ensure that a hostile foreign actor doesn’t disrupt the vote. Election security experts say voter fraud is rare in all forms of balloting, including by mail. In addition to his claims of fraud, Trump argued that voting by mail would delay the determination of the election’s victor, noting that the winner of a New York Democratic congressional primary vote conducted by mail weeks ago remains undeclared. Trump said he believes that race would need to be “rerun.” Trump claimed the challenge would be greater in a presidential election, where the Electoral College could come down to just one state, and some states allow mail-in ballots to be received up to a week after Election Day. “You’ll never know who won that state,” Trump said Monday of Nevada’s expansion of mail voting."
I was reading some of the highlights of Trumps interview with Axios and even after 3 1/2 years I was stunned over the absolute incompetence of our Commander in Chief. On the coronavirus crisis taking 1,000 lives a day Trump: Right now, I think it's under control. Swan: How? 1,000 Americans are dying a day. Trump: They are dying. That's true. It is what it is. But that doesn't mean we aren't doing everything we can. It's under control as much as you can control it. This is a horrible plague that beset us. Swan: You really think this is as much as we can control? 1,000 deaths a day? Trump: First of all, we have done a great job. We've gotten the governors everything they needed. They didn't do their job. Many of them didn't and some of them did. … But the governors do it. We gave them massive amounts of material. Trump: There are those that say you can test too much. You do know that. Swan: Who says that? Trump: Just read the manuals. Read the books. Read the books. Swan: Manuals? What manuals? What books? Trump: Let me explain. What testing does is it shows cases, it shows where there may be cases. Other countries test, you know when they test? They test when somebody's sick. That's when they test. And I'm not saying they're right or wrong. Nobody's done it like we've done it. We've gotten absolutely no credit for it but we've come up with so many different tests. The only thing that we have now is some people have to wait longer than we'd like them to. Swan: You're doing death as a proportion of cases. I'm talking about death as a proportion of population. That's where the US is really bad. Much worse than South Korea, Germany, et cetera. Trump: You can't do that. Swan: Why can't I do that? Trump: You have to go by the cases. Swan: … Well look at South Korea for example: 51 million population. 300 deaths. It's crazy. Trump: You don't know that. You don't know that. Swan: You think they're faking their statistics? South Korea? An advanced country? Trump: I won't get into that because I have a very good relationship with the country. But you don't know that. On intelligence reports of Russia paying bounties to the Taliban to kill American soldiers Swan: You had a phone call with Vladimir Putin on July 23. Did you bring up this issue? Trump: No, that was a phone call to discuss other things. And frankly, that's an issue that many people said was fake news. … But we had a call talking about nuclear proliferation, which is a very big subject. … We did not discuss that, no. Swan: It's because you don't believe the intelligence, is that why? Trump: … If it reached my desk, I would've done something about it. It never reached my desk. … I have so many briefings on so many different countries. But this one didn't reach my desk. Swan: Even if you don't believe this particular piece of intelligence, and there is dispute in the intelligence community about it, your former head of forces in Afghanistan said, and this was when he was working for you, that Russia is supplying weapons to the Taliban. Isn't that enough to challenge Putin over the killings of US soldiers? Trump: Well we supplied weapons when they were fighting Russia too. Swan: But that's a different era. Trump: I'm just saying we did that too. … I have heard that, but, again, it's never reached my desk.
So now chump puts a man in a top Pentagon position that called Obama a terrorist! Everything the prick touches--turns to shit. It's going to take a long time to fix his fuck-ups and change the mentality of his cult members.(forget that!) Obama just drives republicans insane with anger that a black man can be so intelligent, caring, and a great , loving family man who actually saved our bacon from the last republican president. Chump needs a vacation in yo-si-MIGHT.
They lie,steal,cheat-----any way they can , brother. They're republicans after all. We can't forget that for a minute.
in Trump's mind, losing the election equates to voter fraud. That includes losing the popular vote even when he won the election (his 'sore winner' pathology).

Herman Cain will be forever associated with Trump's foolish move to hold such a rally. Trump’s Tulsa Rally Drew People From Dozens of Virus Hot Spots in U.S. By Rachel Adams-Heard, and Aaron Kessler June 26, 2020, 7:00 AM EDT Updated on June 26, 2020, 12:14 PM EDT Trump’s Tulsa Rally Drew People From Dozens of Virus Hot Spots in U.S. excerpt: "Pople came from places including Tarrant County, Texas — home to Fort Worth — where new cases were up more than 50% in the two weeks before the rally. There’s also Shelby County, Tennessee, where Memphis is located, which put plans to loosen restrictions on hold last week after new infections spiked, and Wake County in North Carolina, where the state capital of Raleigh is and the virus is spreading faster than anywhere else in the state. All three states and Oklahoma are seeing rising case numbers. The virus has spiked in Texas, with record new numbers reported in each of the past three days, prompting Governor Greg Abbott to halt the state’s reopening. On Friday, he ordered all bars to close by noon after the state’s positive-test rate topped 11%. Oklahoma also reported a record number of new infections."
Lolz, you are still trying to pin Cain's death to the Tulsa rally are you So, Texas and Oklahoma cases were "spiking" 5 weeks ago were they? How they doing now?
