  1. Don’t think this is CR... but this shit spreading at CPAC might be one of the best things that could’ve happened. These are the folks who are significantly downplaying the risks, if not directly undermining our ability to contain this. Hopefully the exposure/fear they now have will be enough to change the narrative. A “scared straight” situation if you will

  2. Lol I disagree, it's the same sort of shit as the flat earther thread. We aren't being political, we're making fun of people suffering consequences from dumb fucking decisions that flew in the face of facts and reality. Just because it involves politicians doesn't mean we can't make fun of them for being dumbasses.

  3. Going to tap dance around the CR here. If people with very big megaphones would stop saying its overblown by the media, or a hoax, or that you should turn your TVs off, maybe the entire country would take it seriously. There are a lot of followers in this country, so their leaders should all be on the same sheet of music as the medical experts.

  4. OK, I know the rules. First is the 27 year old college student 5'2" 35 Kg. She wants to teach math. Here are my 4 most serious girlfriends of the past two years, and I am still friends with them. I lived with the first one for almost six months last year.

  7. Well, except for the fact that Obama built teams to handle infectious disease outbreaks both here and abroad, but Trump dismantled them. Take your #bothsides bullshit somewhere else.

  8. His entire appearance with the CDC was about him and how smart he is and how everyone is amazed at his intelligence and his grasp of the medical field. I'll never fathom how a single person finds him likeable. It's beyond politics. I'll never get how some people don't find him thoroughly repugnant in every category.

  10. Right. That requires a vote of the VP and majority of the cabinet, which at this point comprises Kid Rock, Diamond & Silk, the current treasurer of the Liberty University Young Republicans Club, a Russian goon named Yuri who paid cash for three units in Trump Tower Azerbaijan, Ted Nugent’s roadie, and a half-eaten Jim Bakker Survival Bucket.

  15. In other news, my Trump supporting mother finally cracked. She was teetering on the edge for a while but she has finally come to the conclusion that Trump is a moron. Of all things, it was Trump's visit to the CDC and his "beautiful tests" that did it. Her fear of the disease, his buffoonery, and her seeing some videos of other world leaders did it. It almost seemed cathartic for her to admit it openly.

  17. We aren't going to know how many cases there are in the US.....EVER. The admin does not want potential cases to be tested, because if a bunch of people test positive, that number will make the admin look bad. So, the best way to avoid that? Just never find out how many cases there are. I'm dead serious, when this is all said and done, the analyses are going to end up saying "US cases: XYZ,000,000 (est.)*" "* Because widespread testing was never performed in the US, the case number is only an estimate, based on other available data." What. A. Shitshow.

  23. This is uninformed garbage. Until 2 years ago, the CDC had global resources and jobs dedicated to prevent and minimize a global pandemic. Trump closed them, slashed funding and eliminated the jobs. Who is in the seat matters a lot.

  27. When you see that we cannot get our Senators and their staff members who may have been exposed tested you know we have a huge testing problem. The look back at the lack of urgency and preparedness by the Trump Administration is going to make Katrina look like a precision exercise. Sadly it is the general simplistic concept "America First" that has landed us where we are today. Normally we would have had epidemiologists on the front lines in China, we would have had the President standing alongside other world leaders several weeks ago. There would have been a coordinated response INITIATED by the President of the Unites States taking the lead. This is an impossibility with President Trump because most world leaders do not trust him. So here we are, Ted Cruz is not isolating himself some two weeks after having contact with an infected person at C-Pac and neither he nor his staff have been tested for the virus yet. Clusterfuck!

  29. Oh bullshit. Biden et al would have turned to the experts, listened to their advice & let them come up with a competent, cohesive plan to address the situation. That's what rational adults do. Their first thought isn't "how is this going to make me look bad" followed an immediate impulse to tweet something stupid that either a) blames someone totally unrelated to the crisis, b) pats himself on the back for having the greatest, most perfect plan ever, or c) just make up bullshit lies.

  31. yeah, that's it. let's just give everyone a pass as being incompetent. actually, fuck that. there is incompetent and there is literally denying a crisis and making it worse incompetent. as far as I can tell that's all trump has done since being sworn in. in this case, it's his worst and most egregious fuck up yet - unless you want to count the treasonous behavior. jesus this is a dumb take

  36. Exactly, if you want to stop the panic, give us something other than words to offset the story being told by facts and data within the world at large. The panicked masses don't give a shit if this doesn't wind up killing as many people as the flu. They want to know the elderly members of their family are safe. They want to know test kit production is ramping up to meet demand. They want to know we have and over supply of beds and equipment to treat the most ill. They want to know we are throwing as many resources as possible at vaccine R&D. In short, they want to know someone competent is handling this. That the virological equivalent of the Wolf from Pulp Fiction is out there and on it. That is what will stop the panic, not condescension towards their concern.
