    1. @frictionRx9 I personally do not drink and think any man that hits a women needs his face kicked in..but I love my marijuana

    2. We have 2 Sexual Assaulters runing for President. MSNB/Biden Tv C needs to drop we care “about women ‘crap. Biden killed that dream ..Hypocrites

    3. @frictionRx9 except in numerous studies there was no increase in alcohol or drug use based on political affiliation, as anyone can be an addict. Stop crying about BS you make up, grow a pair an pd accept you have nothing but lies.😘

  1. Really just piling more responsibility to supermarket workers? Come on those poor essential workers are about to snap !

    1. Its not a political party thing, or a country thing, its an undereducated and angry because they hate themselves thing. This goes back to education and mental health once again, because a decent education and stable mental health means less people taking their feelings out on others. The same people who physically hurt others are the same type of angry trolls who spread misinformation online…

  2. Run now, somebody out there will help, do it, now. If it happened once, it is going to hurt worse the 2nd time.

    1. @Rich Kilchrist who said the GOP was responsible for domestic violence snowflake? Oh, you got triggered and wanted to play victim? The GOP has failed America with reliable Republican Recessions going back 90 years, and now they want to sacrifice seniors for profit? Looks like there is no God in the GOP anymore…😂😂😂

    2. @Some Person IT was the government of NY, NJ and PA that mandated that COVID-19 positive patients from hospitals be admitted into nursing homes killing thousands. They were not in the GOP

  3. Economic hardship + forced to stay in your homes = not safe for victims of abuse.
    Please be safe out there. If you can get the help, I hope that you do. 🙏

    1. Gabe Dudley we wouldn’t be in this situation if ur president took it seriously and didn’t call it a “hoax” u dummy 😂

    2. @Gabe Dudley that’s not true actually, as in those studies they gave people numerous drugs. If they were to test just for Hydroxycloroquine then that’s the only thing that can be given to a patient. Also that drug has major heart side effects, and this virus attacks the heart, and that combination can be deadly. Which when you remember Trump was rushed to the hospital in October with heart pain, and pair that with a drug that hurts your heart, means Trump is killing himself lately. He might not make it to election day even…😘

    3. @Some Person do not be fooled by the disinfo bots my friends. Do not let your ego drive your beliefs. Read them yourself. Educate yourself. Logic and reason

    4. @Gabe Dudley you mean like how you keep copy and pasting your original comment and that last reply up and down multiple MSNBC comment sections? And why is your English so bad? It’s extremely broken, maybe because you’re not an American?

    1. @hhhh9579 because Republican President Trump didn’t test everyone from infected countries entering the country? Or because every Republican President in 90 years crashed the markets? Look I’m not blaming Trump for a rise in domestic violence, but I’m also not a coward like you blaming a political party for all of my life’s problems…😂😂😂

  4. That’s only 1 of the bad side affects of the stay at home orders. How about things like people not seeing their doctors for serious conditions. I know I’ve gained 10 pounds also!

  5. I jus did a video on this last week how bad it is right now. It’s worse especially now. Prayers to all of the women men & children who feel stuck. You’re not alone❤️

    1. We have 2 Sexual Assaulters runing for President. MSNB/Biden Tv C needs to drop we care “about women ‘crap. Biden killed that dream ..Hypocrites

  6. If you can’t stay within doors with your partner during a pandemic, maybe they SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE!

    1. Who said that snowflake? Unlike you blaming Obama or Hillary for your terrible life, we don’t blame Trump for everything bad that happens.😘

  7. As a survivor of abuse I would open up extra homes for those children and women who don’t feel safe. The secret code word is a great idea.

  8. MSNBCannibal Covid Slime Zombies are out and about .. Dont let them slime you ! #StopMSNBCannibalHolocaust

  9. L.A. County Official says: “out of the 3.3 million residents only 6 confirmed Corona deaths” =0.000002%
