I just learned why Trumpers are trying to take a victory lap today…

Evidently the right wing talking point of the day is that since the committee withdrew the Trump subpoena because the committee is finished , this somehow means Trump won the fight legally or something. Like it exonerated him and confirmed 1/6 was a witch hunt!

how stupid must you be for this spin to work on you?

Never forget what the GOP did to this county. They are probably responsible for more American deaths than any organization since the Nazis.

GOP policy has been 100% pro-vax from the beginning. The individual choices of GOP voters don't affect policy. The only politician who put up unnecessary barriers to getting vaccinated was Cuomo, who added his own approval process because he didn't trust the FDA. But of course you don't want people to remember the actual policies of Democrat politicians that harmed the education and graduation rates of Americans, many of whom will never get their lives back on track.

this is an astonishingly naive and misleading statement. 'loper would have us believe that the only thing that matters is law/policy and not what GOP officials said or did. Which is absurd.

GOP members derided vaccines, discouraged vaccines, fought vaccine mandates, mocked mask wearers and even now apparently want to imprison Fauci. You know all this. The result was tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of excess deaths. And we're just getting started - now Republicans we refusing to get even basic vaccines, to prove how 'conservative' they are. Many more deaths are coming from GOP anti-vax positions.

Don't let your morbid wishful thinking get in the way of reality.

58% of COVID deaths in August were vaccinated people.

The remainder of the year was probably similar.

You act like it’s responsible politics to lie about vaccines and discourage vaccines to the point we get tens of thousands of preventable deaths. You act like as long as people vote R then whatever lies Republicans tell are ok.
it’s not a game - it’s lives and our nation. Rs need to stop with the stupid and the lies - they are killing the body politic, literally and figuratively.

we need an adult, responsible Conservative Party in this nation. We don’t have it.

Republicans have not discouraged vaccines, with very few fringe exceptions. Every governor was vaccinated and encouraged their constituents to do so. Meanwhile Democrats actually have lied and oversold vaccine's effectiveness and greatly weakened the CDC's credibility. Which leads to lower vaccination rates.

Gaslighting. trump was literally booed when he tried to brag about the vaccines. Rs are vastly less likely to be vaccinated. You know all this. I won’t insult you by telling you what you already know.

So your point is Trump is pro-vaccine? That's my point. What's the issue here?

Hey, am I the only one who has message #35171 at the top of the page (page 1,773 of 1,773)--from two weeks ago--with the next message being #35441, from a couple hours ago? A couple weeks and a couple hundred messages missing, in other words?

Is that just at my machine, or is that what you have too?

Everyone has that. No one knows why.
