    Side note on the thread, a little trivia, what history refers to as the “Spanish flu” actually didn’t originate in Spain. Spain was neutral in WWI, and one of the few countries reporting flu statistics early in the pandemic thereby they got the tag

    Would you like me to give you a critical thinking exercise to see if you can discern facts from opinion and/or debatable things?

    Correct. In fact it may have originated in Kansas, or at least the primary spread may have come from an Army Base there.

    I don't get any video except the one at the bottom. "NOW WATCH: 6 months of the coronavirus pandemic in the United States, reviewed in 6 minutes"

    I get a bunch of non-referenced assertions.

    It goes to a tweet that has video from months ago when Trump made this gaffe.

    The "journalist". Tell me he doesn't look like a shellshocked commie.

    Anyone can make a mistake, but I think its very funny when someone like Trump* (who's supporters jump on any and all fumbles of words or facts of his opponent) makes such a silly misstatement.

    Yes he faked Trump speaking at the press conference. Probably works for a black newspaper. Like USA Today"

    Are you tired of me beating you like cheap pinata yet? Smarter, richer, and better looking. You must be incredibly jealous of me. Sorry, you should set your sights lower. Maybe an upgrade on the double wide for starters.

    Trump is 74 after all. Why they are playing that age card, I can't figure. Not like he is 35 and this is Mondale v Reagan.
