I never admired Bloomberg so much after the first debate. Until then his interviews and speeches made me think he had real ability. That first debate made me reconsider.

"Retirements are wiped out."
Does that mean my pension fund will be wiped out? Does it mean my wife will not receive her pension when she retires?
Best and Worst Case Scenarios for the Pandemic March 21, 2020 at 2:57 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 193 Comments
Nick Kristof examines the best and worst case scenarios for the coronavirus pandemic.
“So where is the United States headed? Will we endure the worst case, with 2.2 million deaths? Or will we manage to turn things around, with help from summer?
“No one knows, so the optimal path forward is to hope for the best while preparing for the worst… Outcomes depend in part on us — and my conversations with experts leave me concerned that WE STILL ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH.” _______________
Or is this like some say climate change is, namely, that we have already passed the point where we can do ANYthing to avoid calamity?
“Global anxiety over the coronavirus centered on Europe on Saturday, where Italy is bearing the brunt of the pandemic’s unceasing spread. Italian officials announced that 793 people had succumbed to the virus in a single day. The staggering number brought the nation’s total dead to more than 4,800, the most for a single country,” the Washington Post reports.
“As death tolls mount across the continent, Italy has become a symbol of the enormous challenges facing public health authorities in Europe and in the United States, who are struggling to contain the virus.”
“Eleven days into Italy’s nationwide lockdown, which includes travel restrictions and the closure of most stores apart from groceries and pharmacies, the number of confirmed cases still soared, with 6,557 new cases since Friday. Hospitals and morgues were overwhelmed. The government has reported 53,578 total cases, concentrated in the northern part of the country.” ____________________
Three Weeks
Josh Marshall reviews the last three weeks:
February 26th, 2020. President Trump: “When you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.”
March 20th, 2020. Confirmed cases in the United States rise to 16,064.
John Gruber: “It’s not ‘playing politics’ to point this stuff out regarding the Trump administration’s response to COVID-19. It is essential that we, collectively, see that Trump is temperamentally unfit for the office."

I loved the video.
Thanks
It's absolutely Great!
Oh look James’ hero is a lying POS
'Not surprised that a billionaire is cheating scum': Mike Bloomberg is blasted by former campaign staffers after he fires them despite promising competitive pay and health benefits until November
Staffers who worked on Mike Bloomberg's presidential campaign were let go on Friday
Some took to social media to complain about the terminations, which came after they were given guarantees of competitive pay and benefits through November
Instead, Bloomberg ended his plan to start a super PAC and donated $18 million to the Democratic National Committee instead
In response to the complaints, the ex-staffers say they were invited to apply to the DNC for jobs
The layoffs come a day after the former workers were told two floors of Bloomberg's Manhattan headquarters were exposed to the coronavirus
Wrong thread great song
you're welcome, alky and pederast.

Wrong thread great song
since when has the POS "pastor" ever observed any threads topic or not spammed it with shit from political_lire ?
Occasional slipups or off-topic posts happen.
No need to apologize.
And agree on CHT's taste in music.
I never admired Bloomberg so much after the first debate. Until then his interviews and speeches made me think he had real ability. That first debate made me reconsider.
The music selection is marvelous.
What follows is deeply disturbing:

James agreed with my statement.
Notice how deeply dark a mood all the Socialist are in.
πThat first debate made me reconsider.π
James always hangs herself.
"If you think this is bad, go to the next thread up."
Thus is the thread, and what do we see, Jane posting about the pain of Americans.
She really is enjoying that America is going thru a rough spot.
No lower sub-human then Jane.
How much have you lost on the stock market, Kansas Dim?ππππππ
Liberal writer at the Atlantic trying to tell the country that we'll have 18 months of this. Ridiculous.
So James has given us by times and axios. Good grief. Maybe I'll spam the board with Hannity.
oh look , Jane stomps her feet after I stomped a mud hole in her ass, again.
"How much have you lost on the stock market, Kansas Dim?"
Answer : $0.00
