  • Trump the superspreader

    From Joacim Melin@2:221/242 to All on Monday, October 05, 2020 18:59:57
    So - Dear Leader got Covid-19 after all. The same Covid-19 he said was like a flue, it was going to disappear any day now...

    Not that I think it will change him. He's too stupid to understand, and so are the sheep that are his voters.

    So far, he seems to be recovering from it similar to someone who had the
    flu. Actually, better than some that have the flu as it, too, kills a
    bunch of people every year. He is already back home.

    You do also realize that, when Trump initially suggested that we close our borders to keep the virus out, the Democratic Party stood out against that? Their Congressional leaders and Mayors were still encouraging people to go
    out and celebrate holidays in their areas while calling Trump's border
    closure idea racist.

    It was probably not even a month later when some of those same Democratic politicians were pointing to New Zealand's border closures as an excellent example of what we should have done and calling out Trump for not doing so sooner?

    Did Sweden close its borders?

    No. We never did, and we didn't have to because it doesn't make any difference anyway. By the time you closed your borders the virus was already in your country and since your president so bravely refused to do any widespread testing for months and months, and virus spread and have now killed over 200000 americans. In sweden, we have lost about 5500 people with a population of roughly ten million. Too many, of course, but you really can't stop a pandemic, only try to identify who is infected asap and treat them accordingly, regardless of their social status, wealth or which party they vote for.
