    BECAUSE DUMBASSES, we know WHAT THE CURRENT FLUS are operating. I GOT A SHOT FOR THEM IN NOVEMBER! It's factored, projected, planned for and TREATED.

    I've never seen IGNORANCE so proudly and publicly displayed as on this board. They don't give a shit that they LOOK stupid. ZERO shame. LESS embarrassment.
    The TRUMP MODEL. I'll say anything, wrong, trashy or an overt lie. And I'll tell another one tomorrow or in 5 minutes.

    Oops, I forgot the flu has treatment, vaccines, and is a regular occurrence that doesn't normally kill otherwise healthy people. Please don't laugh.

    Did you?

    How come the flu which is a regular occurrence, has killed more Americans than the Chinese disease despite treatment, vaccines, and not normally killing otherwise healthy people?

    BTW, the Chinese disease doesn't normally kill otherwise healthy people. either.
