  1. A hurried vaccine just before the election from a guy that promoted the Nigerian witch doctor, told us to inject bleach, said he takes ‘hydroxy’.. No thank you Donald.

    1. @bojee lll The first person who starts insulting the other looses the debate . That is not educated and stooping to that level is juvenile and also bad spirited , I refuse to deal with that type of person .Have a nice life.

    1. New Republicans: racism is always bad, log cabin republicans are great! babies lives matter, god is good, families matter, country should be respected, illegal illicit drugs are bad, addiction is a disease, capitalism is mostly good, violence is sometimes ok. Government should stay out of issues regarding race except for individual acts of hate crime. Foreign wars are bad. we should try to stay out of ancient tribal conflicts. Subsistence life style is good. Farmers are good. Energy independence is important. Globalism is bad. Sovereignty is important. Merit based immigration is smart. Vote security is smart. School choice/charter School and vocational schools are good. College is not critical to success and in many cases is a waste of valuable time and money. Good jobs matter. Free healthcare is impossible under a capitalist system. Non-profits and Religion affiliated hospitals like providence St. Pete’s should cover/wave bills for people who can’t pay. It should be a write off. 99.9 percent of police are heroes. America should be proud.

      New Democrats: Black Lives Matter. racism is bad but not always, god is offensive and religion is stupid, socialism is good, drugs aren’t that bad, addiction is a disease. all white people are racist, killing babies is ok, violence is sometimes ok and preconceived notions based on skin color are normal. Gender is fluid. Government should keep detailed demographics records and involve itself in as many aspects of daily life as possible in order to help minority groups gain advantages based on skin color. Systemic racism is rampant and out of control. The police are killing black people whole sale for no reason. White men and their families stop democrats from gaining power. America must act as a world police force. Fossil fuels are bad. Energy independence is impossible. Globalism is inevitable and good. Borders are bad and racist. Open borders are good. Mail in vote is good. Public school is good because you can implement federal education programs on a massive level. STEM programs are more important than vocational school. Charter schools that operate outside the purvey of public system guidelines are not good. Capitalism is unfair. Tax payers should pay more to support the education of all people regardless of their interest in school or going to college or the likelihood of college leading to some sort of gainful employment. College is critical to success and should be paid for by tax payers. Healthcare is a right. socialist universal healthcare is good. America should be ashamed.

    1. Manny Radzky – you prove my point. You’re completely unable to be self aware. You’re like Chris Farley in Tommy Boy when they’re in the diner. You just hear the name Trump and you lose it on your dinner roll, lol. Lay off the CNN, chief. You’re going to end up very bitter and even more misinformed than you already are. Peace.

    2. @Manny Radzky – What is your point? The only point I can infer from your skewed view of Trump is that he somehow bungled the response to a situation that was foisted upon our country by communist China. You just keep watching those inflated CV-19 numbers on the side of the screen on CNN and try not to let the hate run too deeply through you. You do know that no other virus is counted or tracked like this one? Only about 6% of the stated numbers are accurate as far as an actual death rate. Although how could you know that if you only watch cnn and msnbc? Just remember, it’s coming for you too.

    3. Thyalwaysseek there are fringe assholes at these peaceful demonstrations. They are the real trouble makers. Some are from the left and some are from the right.

  2. Let’s hear from the scientists. CEOs are selling a product. There are big bucks for the first company to get a vaccine on the market.

    1. Radic Alnational
      Don’t be so hard on yourself “U”. Perhaps you didn’t notice that all this data was for 2018.

    2. Mike Albert he was found guilty in the house and then republicans controlled congress gave him a free pass. Fact he was impeached. Fact the phone call was recorded. There was the evidence used. Fact Ukraine didn’t get there aid until Trumpsky saw he was being watched and at the urging of his cabinet released the funds.

    3. Anthony Munoz
      You are very misinformed. The house that was and still is controlled by the Democrats voted to go forward with impeachment in the Senate where he was found not guilty. The Democrats could not get one Republican or even all the Democrats to vote in favor of impeachment in the house. In the Senate one Republican voted guilty on one of the counts. And in the process the House Democrats did all they could to prevent any judge from hearing any of the arguments that the president made in contesting the validity of subpoenas made before the House had officially started impeachment proceedings.
      To help you out, it is the same as if you were charged with a crime and the court found you not guilty. Impeachment is the process not the outcome.

    4. Anthony Munoz
      We have the “dirt” on Biden. Can you explain why it is against the law to investigate a Democrat? Is this your standard? If the Democrats have the House all Democrats get a pass?

    1. Educate your self lol, all animals have different immune systems, likely animals with immune systems and responses similar to humans.

    2. cant recall any animals making bat soup, if thats the cause
      HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
      thing is THERE REALLY ARE PEOPLE WHO WILL BELIEVE THAT CLOWN FRAUDSTER.

    3. Immunology and immunological research is a very deep field. It’s completely forgivable that you don’t understand the subject matter.

    1. @Conn_Man_24 Yeah, I forgot about Trumpfs clone there, who is also dying to be able to report something positive, with all his Brexit nonsense…

    1. The CDC that got caught lying about Covid deaths? The same CDC that admitted it wasn’t 189K covid deaths but only 10k? You still trust them 😂

    2. Hawkzblade what are you talking about? I’m not saying the 179K didn’t die, I’m saying they had preexisting health conditions, most of whom were already going to die anyway. Go read the CDC report, instead of just believing the fake news you worship

    1. MilkCow
      Us independents follow the science as well. At least I do and always have.
      It will be a cold day in hell before I ever vote red again.
      They finally exposed their true character since they backed chump.

    2. @n?a and what makes you think the germans would not have conquered you along with the japanese..man that ego of yours is just so full of hot air i am happy to see the world finally realises how flimsy your society really is

    3. We have the vaccine! Trump pulled it off! Now the entire world has to thank Trump. Reelection guaranteed.

  3. Wow- I sure never thought I’d be an anti- vaccine person. Thanks again trump for making every day Opposite Day

    1. @Debra Johnson the left is educated and knows it’s not possible to get a working vaccine that is safe enough before March 2021.
      The 2 most promising vaccine companies in the world just announced that their vaccines are not ready to use due to major side effects.
      You really think Americans will do any better without the research from those companies? The answer is no

    2. @Yashar’el in Captivity yup correct. That’s why I’m saying that we won’t get a working vaccine this year. The 2 most promising vaccine companies have put everything in hold for now.

    3. @Eskil Tester ..For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per death. The number of deaths with each condition or cause is shown for all deaths and by age groups(found unnder Subtext Comorbidities Centre for Disease Control). :https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm

  4. When what was once good is now deemed bad, and what was once deemed evil is now deemed good. This is your Democrat.

    People without principles vote for leadership void of principles.

    1. Dallas Burns because if the vaccine comes out before elections – Trump wins. COVID is one of the highest hands the dems have. CNN and dems care about Biden winning more than a vaccine

  5. Dems: “Listen to the science.”

    Science: “Vaccine by October.”

    Dems: “The CEO is just talking up his own vaccine.”

    Kamala: “I wouldn’t take it…I don’t trust Trump.”

    1000 more American will die per day if they listen to her and don’t take it. This seems worse than Trump casting doubts about mail-in voting, no?
