    1. Death has a way of motivating people. That’s always been the problem with climate change action. We just need a few hundred million dead, and suddenly climate change will be treated as the most important thing in the world (like it actually is).

    1. @yogi why do you bother to troll is your life that boring and your self esteem so poor you need to make yourself feel important Boo Boo 😂

    2. @yogi be alittle hard for my mum to give me attention Junior 😉 she’s been dead 5 years ..
      Now run along your insecurities and lack of self esteem are showing 😉😂

    3. @@Alan aka FANG: were you one of the Trump morons that called poison control to see if you could drink bleach? I bet you were!

  1. Trump had the wrong strategy on immigration.
    Just don’t count the people crossing the border. Problem solved.

  2. This was all forseen and planned for by W & Obama, but their plans were ignored by Trump. Shutdown & isolation was all in vain, as also soon will be 200k Covid deaths.

    1. Trump hates Obama so anything did prior he wants to tear apart. He is the most racist and hateful person.

    1. “But it’s okay, no worries: the death panels are being conducted by white people, so it’s fine.” –GOP

    1. self-deprication at its finest..unfortunately, all things considered, this can’t be confined to one person with a death wish..they can – and WILL – take someone with them…i’ll say it again: this isn’t a civil rights issue: it’s life or death..you decide – but for yourself, and leave evryone else alone…….

  3. Americans: I don’t need to wear mask this is the land of the Free”…

    America: Increase cases and deaths

    World: 😂 😂😂😂😂

    1. the dumbest thing i’ve heard since this started was ”my body, my choice”..that’s a feminist slogan dating back to the early 70s (maybe earlier)..one has nothing to do with the other: whether a woman chooses to have an abortion is between her and her unborn child..this pandemic, should you choose defiance, affects EVERYone..so that i-am-woman-hear-me-roar doesn’t fit the present situation – not by a long shot..this ain’t a civil rights matter in any way, shape or form: it’s a matter of life and death………..

    2. The RT-PCR test proves that someone is infected with COVID and is absolutely effective at providing accurate results! All patients are compassionately cared for by all doctors and are given equal access to treatment in the form of non-invasive ventilation/hydroxychloroquine/zithromax/zinc/high dose vitamin c+d. Hard sedation with propofol and the dangerous use of an invasive ventilator is only used as a last resort, of course! All hospital administrations allow patients to be visited by their family members in case they need an advocate for their health and treatment! Deaths from other illnesses + terminal conditions are undoubtedly not being relabeled COVID! Oh wait, these claims are F A L S E 👏

      pastebin.com/UDxTAiDj or facebook.com/groups/CVFear/- A collection of content banned from social media to encourage understanding and raise questions of both the severity of the virus and the extreme measures taken against it. Also shining light on the shameful behavior and propaganda of mainstream media. “The overwhelming majority of people recover from this virus” -Dr. Fauci💲

  4. This is so sad I listen to a woman crying because they close the restaurant down again I understand that people have to live pay bills it is sad that Donald Trump it’s not helping the people every other country is helping their people through this and this is America we are supposed to handle this better than what we’re handling but my people nothing just happens we left this man in and he have Destroyer us when is it time to impeach him people lie for him they knew what he was doing and no one said anything people worship Him and he spit on them and that was people of color people are in jail because of this man people have let this man destroyed kids life people have let this men disrespect woman he cheated to get into the White House and no one did anything he Is the reason why Millions so many people have died because of the Coronavirus this man doesn’t even care

    1. But I tell you what God is tired I of this man nothing just happens we know that he knew about Putin putting that bounty on or soldiers but he wasn’t the only one knew no one did anything but I tell you what this is the last straw cuz God is tired and he is to about to do something by next week it will be a bigger Scandal on America that America is not going to be able to handle and those who was in on it because he didn’t do all this by himself will pay a price God allowed all of this to happen to let us see yes what kind of evil man was put in that white house God help America god bless

    2. Rochelle Barrow Great points but please punctuate with full points once in a while….it makes your posts much easier to read! 😀

    1. Have grown up and developed the ability to critically think, you can too. Planning the pandemic that they need YOU to be afraid of and be a part of: COV💉D-19 pastebin.com/UDxTAiDj or facebook.com/groups/CVFear/ – content banned from social media to strengthen understanding and raise questions of both the severity of the virus and the adverse measures taken against it. Also exploring the shameful behavior and manipulation of information by the news. “The overwhelming majority of people recover from this virus” “The very fact that the body is capable of spontaneously clearing the virus” -Dr. Fauci

  5. Well bunker boy? Well? it isn’t going away! No miracles coming either, it’s here to stay unless you get off your know what and do SOMETHING! There are plenty of success models around the world to follow!

    1. he’s aware of EXACTLY what he’s doing: he’s too matter-of-fact, and never at a loss for words (thoiugh he ususally makes NO sense at all)- as if he’s prepared, to confues the crap out of whomever is listening..way too glib, and NEVER taken by surprise……..

    2. There are plenty of success models around the world for successful universal health care, pandemic response, law enforcement, etc., but that doesn’t seem to matter to republicans. Just the almighty dollar in their pockets.

  6. this healthcare mess is all his own making and he cannot unmake it. he and republicans refuse to listen to doctors who only have to look at the behaviours and statistics and can predict accurately the outcomes of this pandemic. reality that nobody can run away from, unless you are not living in america that is. and this mess is going to precipitate an economic mess

  7. Weird thing is those who most likely propelled the spread (i.e the young who went to bars and beaches) are the ones who are likely to get those ICU beds over the vulnerable elderly who were just chilling at home.

  8. & yet trump does not know anything about the virus
    He has never heard of covid19. He was never briefed

    1. What is that Covid-thing everyone is talking about?
      No I didn’t miss anything, I’m the most informed person on the planet.

  9. Welcome to the real America. I want to know what tests are being used by states, and are they tests the FDA rushed approval for and are defective? We shifted from a community-based society with support networks to a society that relies on government and agencies to fill support roles…and now when we need the support, we see the government and agencies abandoned us. So this is going to be painful.

  10. So basically, you are talking about GOP death lists.
    Remember when ACA was falsely accused of promoting “death lists?”
    Hypocrisy, gaslighting, projection. The mantra of the GOP and right wing propaganda networks.

  11. America has just qualified into having one of the most expensive medical cost and healthcare system for a triage treatment. Soon it will probably have expensive cost sidewalk treatments as all the triage might also be occupied.

  12. All of government, local, state, and federal, should lose their “special access” to as much testing as they want, whenever they want, and have to take on the same risks, wait for hours in line for testing, wait a week or so for the results, and be subject to crisis care, the same as every other American in the state they r in. Our leaders haven’t done enough to control this virus. When they, their staff, their family and friends get to live in bubbles and don’t have to worry about this virus, thanks to our tax dollars, like the rest of us, there is little incentive for, especially, republican leaders to put ppl before profits. Our response thus far to this virus has been worse than the 1918 pandemic when they knew less about medicine and had fewer tools to work with. There’s no excuse we aren’t doing at least as well as the EU at this stage and if we had no republicans, we would be where the EU is by now. I really wish we could give the entire Republican Party and all their voters a few states and allow them to secede. They, the minority, do nothing but hold the rest of the country back. They r selfish ppl who care only about themselves, their wealth and power, cheating to win elections, about exploiting less powerful, less wealthy ppl, and using the government to steal income and wealth from the M&L classes. A society is a group, a team, of individuals. The I, I, I ppl don’t belong in a group that requires a ‘we’ mentality to succeed.

  13. America is every bit as disciplined, and as orderly as new zealand, australia, germany. Maybe more so. And with more resources. It just so happens that America is led today by a banshee president. If there was any other president in power, total cases in the US probably wont exceed 100 cases and maybe less than 10 deaths!

  14. Don’t have a heart attack, car accident or any other medical emergency, in states where crisis care is in operation if you are old or obese…
