WH Chief Of Staff: "We're Not Going To Control The Pandemic"

Americans would have gladly rallied around an even half-way competent and adult response. Instead, what do we get? The most dysfunctional and politicized response imaginable.
These are the kinds of people the administration response appeals to:

"US early voting hits 58.6 million, surpassing all of 2016 early and absentee voting"

"Registered Democrats continue to lead registered Republicans with 51 percent to 31 percent of all votes cast, though the gap has closed slightly in recent days as early in-person voting has begun."
It's quite reasonable to believe these are voters who don't want to be exposed to Covid19 in the booths on election day and/or are waiting in lines wanting their vote to be counted. They're less likely to be at Trump rallies and the fanatical Trumptoids are those that insist on showing up only on November 3rd because that's the traditional day to do so and they don't believe in Covid anyway...

Nope, the pandemic is increasing dramatically, especially in the red states run by Republican governors, and the stock market is tanking as we slip further into recession.
I know you don't pay it no mind, though...

Post Election Analysis: Why Trump Lost...

Posted By Rod Kaufman

The other week or so, 700 Americans died from Covid19. Your reaction to that? Probably the same as anybody's.
What if those 700 died from a nerve agent during a terrorist attack on Yankee stadium? What if that happened during the Obama presidency? Cries of he didn't keep us safe, along with endless Republican lead investigations and the like. The fact that Trumptoids give Trump and themselves a pass on this debacle is truly mind boggling...
