There is a problem. No one is denying that. The question is, how big of problem is it really? Is it all due to Corona? Or not so much?

Aren't they using the standard procedures for any disease? Doctors and scientists like to remain apolitical....which is why I respect them so much. Sure, some do become political, but that often makes then such an outcast, all they do is politics, not science.

Like 9/11, you and I know there is going to be a shitpot full of "Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda" about this for years. Lots of name-calling and blame-slinging all the way to election day, but also for years after no matter what happens.
In the end the reality will set in: We, the People fucked up. We became complacent. We let politics cloud common sense. The most successful and most powerful nation in the world botched an event that much smaller First World nations are handling without authoritarian rule. Part of complacency is the state of denial. The idea "it can't happen to us"....which is exactly what happened on 9/11 too. We're idiots.

Tell it to the CDC.
Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

Why? They're already doing it.

Hello Dutch Uncle,
Oh, but this makes so much sense!Naturally, the ones who are absolutely suspicious of the news, suspicious of everybody, don't believe anything but conspiracy theories, vote for the most reprehensible liar because while they won't even believe the most professional vetted careful mainstream news, they will believe that the CDC and all of science is 'on the other side.'
The big mystery is if they are so suspicious that they won't even believe science or the mainstream news, why in the world will they completely drop any pretense of trying to make sure something is believable when the cult leader says it?
That one's hard to figure.
I mean, I can understand wanting to make sure, wanting to verify. That's only logical. So why drop all of that because it's, you know, HIM?

It's because they put politics over truth, over science and, of course, over common sense. The first big change in the US on this issue came in the 1990s when the Republican party first became a Theocratic political party by pushing both "intelligent design" and an anti-gay agenda in schools and the public. This later extended to Climate Change. It should be no surprise the same nonsense is being used to cover Trump for his leadership failures regarding COVID-19.Hello Dutch Uncle,

15 Answers to Creationist Nonsense
IN BRIEF
- Despite definitive legal cases that have established the unconstitutionality of teaching intelligent design or creationist ideology in science class, the theory of evolution remains consistently under attack.
- Creationist arguments are notoriously errant or based on a misunderstanding of evolutionary science and evidence.
- Hundreds of studies verify the facts of evolution, at both the microevolutionary and macroevolutionary scale—from the origin of new traits and new species to the underpinnings of the complexity we see in life and the statistical probability of such complexity arising.

Things that make no sense about this president:
Why is it that the same guy who brags about the amount of testing the USA is doing - wants to slow down the amount of testing the USA is doing?
???

Do not try to rationalize the behavior of irrational people. It will just drive you crazy.
Trump is delusional; he's both a long-time conspiracy theorist and self-isolated from reality. This is why he fires people who tell him things he doesn't like to hear.
