    1. @Richard B yeah, he had a worse economic growth than Obama
      Worse job growth
      Worse stock market gains and records
      He did have a jump in farm bankruptcies by 24percent last year and associated suicides

  1. I wonder how stressed these medical workers feel during the pandemic. They probably see so many patients that thought that this was a hoax. I wonder what they think about those people. Some people are so selfish, they don’t even care about who is going to wndnup taking care of them.

    1. USA is forgetting the real heroes. Or they complain that “this is fake hur de dur, all the doctors in the world are lying.”

    2. Dig Dig dig! these folks are going to get me or my family killed taking care of them. I work on COVID patients period I am a Respiratory Therapist and a conservative, for Pete’ sake wear a mask!!! I wore a mask getting a haircut today and helping a friend buy a car it ain’t hard I am still free!!

  2. I know these brave medical workers would never do this, but they should ask these covid patients if they’ve gone to any recent t’rump rallies. If the answer is yes, then give them some clorox and a syringe, and send them on their way.

    1. I’ve taken care of a lot of seriously ill sociopathic types including pedophiles, neo-nazis etc but at the end of the day you know you gave them the best of care because it’s what we’re called to do.

    2. @Nurse Kathy Best care as in keep them lock up? There is no cure for sociopath and pedophiles. You can reeducated neo nazies but i do not think that is legal in USA.

    3. @macbeth moray I’m a cardiology nurse. Many come from the prison with chest pain, shortness of breath. I’m not there to change their mentality, just treat the medical issues and send them on their way.

  3. Country over party!
    Republicans for Biden/Harris
    Veterans for Biden/Harris
    Healthcare Workers/Providers for Biden/Harris

    Psychological stability over a psychopath!
    Democracy over Fascism!

  4. Dying is not political.
    Denying is political.
    Please wake up and join the real world.
    Vote blue for a saner, safer, more honorable, and more just America.

    1. @TooMany Discs you need 2 transplants. 1 of the brain to increase your IQ, one of the ability to feel empathy so you can become a complete human being in stead of a malicious jerk.

    2. @whatsyurprob ? what is my problem? Insensitive, stupid jerks like you who spread disinformation for a madman.

    3. Wrong. If you want a safer, more secure world, VOTE STRAIGHT RED! A vote for Blue is a vote for riots, racism, divisiveness, hate, and Socialism.

    4. @C W Voting straight red is like voting straight dead. 200,000 more dead by the end of the year following an administration that is dead from the neck up.

    5. @C W you have quite a bit of it backwards. A vote of straight red will give you more fascism, which has been increasing under the Trump administration. The middle class has all but disappeared under Trump’s fascist ideology. We have the dreaded socialism already in Medicare, Social Security, the minimum wage ( which needs to be increase not eliminated as Trump is trying to do). Trump wants to eliminate the payroll tax which will defund Social Security in a few years. I have paid into th as fund and l don’t want the grifter in chief to steal it from me. We need to have the very rich pay their fair share of taxes so that we can repair our aging infrastructure. Not all of us can afford private planes. We need to pay teachers salaries equivalent to their education. Teachers don’t teach to get rich.You either are a confirmed Trumper, in which case you will not believe anything l have said or have listened to Fox News and/or QANON. One thing is for certain. You need a reality check.

  5. Wear a mask. Make sure it covers your NOSE and Mouth snugly and securely. Experiment with bobbypins, a ponytail or a comb in your hair to anchor it. I saw a kid simply twist the loops to tighten up his mask.
    Wash your hands for 20 seconds and get between the fingers and under the fingernails.
    And, Make your Voice Heard November 3rd. VOTE ! ! !

    1. @Lee TV People should probably cover their eyes whenever they spot a red cap. That disease appears to be contagious.

    1. @TooMany Discs Contrarily to Trump who became POTUS with NO experience in politics whatsoever, and who told governors ”… you guys handle the massive deadly pandemic on your own! Everything is your fault now! K bye good luck with that!!”

    2. @Berny Wright And those are just the ”official” numbers… god knows what the REAL numbers are. Not to mention all those suffering from non-covid causes who died because they could not access the care they needed because hospitals were overwhelmed with covid patients.

  6. American why!!!,why are still following a guy who just use jesus christ , (Trump)bible and Christian 4 just a vote why !!!!! Pls and pls beg u people in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏 vote Trump out!!!!!!! Pls

  7. I’m sorry that you are having to do this. I’m extremely thankful for all the Doctors , Nurses, Volunteers , EMT , and Fire Departments. Thank you all. I don’t know what the world would do without all of you. Peace, Love and Health

  8. I have respect for military and law inforcement personell. They risk their lives for us. You lot are no different. You lot are respected by a lot of people worldwide. Doesn’t matter what country you’re in. Thank you very much.

  9. Front line medical workers: “There’s Nothing Political About These People Dying.”
    President Donald ‘Common Flu’ Trump would beg to differ. Apparently what’s killing people is a very handy re-election tool.

  10. Whoever is disliking this – these are the people who’ll be looking after you one day. Perhaps it’s your guilty conscience because you’ve already infected and killed someone close.

    1. America is going to need thousands of ‘guilt’ counsellors when this tragedy is finally over, in two or three years from now.

  11. Oh, but there is, sadly. It’s totally, “political.” That was Donny’s choice, and his cult followed. Appealing to their humanity won’t help. You want to save more lives? VOTE! Biden / Harris will save us! . . . VOTE! ✌️👍

    1. A few months ago I came across a recommendation from Mr. Daniel how he helped investors make big money from their investments. and decided to try what I have. Now my little one has become something great that I did not expect … thanks to him I win and live very well. You can connect him on Telegram at @Danielwrightfx or WhatsApp: +17865272947 and thank me later

  12. it breaks my heart that the doctors and nurses and orderlies, are not supported by the Orange Slug.
    it breaks my heart

  13. Every single person connected with the medical support of people with covid is doing an amazing job. You’re all to be commended on your dedication, especially as you have families of your own who many of you are staying away from so as not to put them at risk.

  14. It has gotten so bad that hospitals are actually having to turn away patients. My heart goes out to all who fall ill, their families, and these wonderful frontline people who care for the sick. Every day is such an ordeal for them.

  15. Criminal Indictments by Administration

    Donald Trump (so far) — 215
    Richard Nixon — 76
    George W. Bush — 16
    Bill Clinton — 2
    Jimmy Carter — 1
    Barack Obama — 0
