PLAYPEN: Covid-19 Everything Political

[Craig Lamson]

The Right's favourite word.  Even the title of a book by one of their most cowardly and despicable members.

Says a lot, IMHO. That's all they care about: "triggering".

So I see poor egghead Peter got triggered.  Wonderful.

On edit I see poor egghead Peter got triggered twice. Even more wonderful.

“One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.” 

This is totally taken out of context and it’s simply not the whole truth.  Fake news...Propaganda. 

Watch the entire tape of Trumps entire comments on this subject from Feb 28.

OK, I've watched that several times, and he did say that.

Next point?





 

Then get back to us.

Show me your link, let’s see if you saw the whole thing.

Yep and I’ll say it again every time you get trashed and get triggered.  It’s just too much fun.

What do you me by "egghead"? The dictionary definition doesn't seem to fit.

My usage is not in any dictionary, urban or otherwise.  I just decided it’s fits well with those who have been told to “ go suck an egg”.  ymmv

“One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.” 

This is totally taken out of context and it’s simply not the whole truth.  Fake news...Propaganda.  If the author is willing to shade the truth on something as easily checked as this, dare we dive into the rest?  ( and yes there is more, starting here pretty much destroys the entire article.)

Do you at least agree that the Financal Times is not a leftie publication?

Face it, most objective media, left, right,... just tell things the way they are. Which is that you favorite politician just messed up in historical proportions and caused tens of thousands of avoidable casualties.

I do understand that you feel bad about this to the extend that you can't even begin to admit it.

Cheers,
Bernard

Quick, duck...another bomb just exploded.  Watch out for flying bs!

Now that, Bernard, is what is called "wishful thinking".

There's no way in hell that <insert usual suspects here> are ever going to admit that they're wrong about anything. Ever.

Show me your link, let’s see if you saw the whole thing.

Not all media are linkable.  I believe I saw that video on CBC television.

Tell you what, though. In the interests of advancing the discussion, let's give you this one.  Let's just say that he never said that.  Let's say that it was fake news and what we saw with our own eyes was invalid.

What about all the other points in the article?  We asked you (nicely) for a point-by-point, validated refutation.

Your serve.

Well, there are a multitude of video links available,  all you need to do is google.  But I’ll help you.

Now as you listen to the clip, Trump makes his statement conditional.  The FT piece omits the conditions, which is completely dishonest. 

Heck even CNN reported it honestly.

As I stated in my original post , this disqualified the entire piece.  It’s a hit job.    End of story.

Fine.  Keep on walking.  Be careful of that open manhole ahead, though.

Thanks for participating intelligently in meaningful discussion.

Sheesh.  You could not even be bothered to offer up a single link to a video.  You had zero idea what had or had not been said, even though that very specific quote has been discussed here a few times, and you got indignant about it. 

Amazing.

[Peter McLennan]

and you got indignant about it. 

Please show me where I was indignant.

Then, if you have the courage of your convictions, please proceed with your refutation of the rest of the article.

It's still your serve.

You sound like the looney leader, when he does not like the questions from a reporter, he moves on and does not answer them. Heis so brave, like a spoiled child who thinks he has the answers for everything. Chloroquine was great, he was taking it, until one day he stopped taking it. Everything serves the purpose of shifting his reponsibility to anything else, he just wants to save his ass and get reelected, whatever the cost.

When a serious crisis hits, it separates the competent from the incompetent. Plain and simple. Add ignorance and a huge ego, and this is the result you get.

"Everything he [Trump] says is absolutely accurate" - Dr. Drew

This Dr. Drew?
https://eu.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/celebrities/2020/04/07/coronavirus-dr-drew-pinsky-addresses-covid-19-criticism/2960027001/

NEW YORK — Celebrity doctor Drew Pinsky has apologized for a series of statements unspooled in a recent video where he downplayed the coronavirus and suggested it was a “press-induced panic.”

“I wish I had gotten it right, but I got it wrong,” said Pinsky in a video posted over the weekend. Pinsky is known as “Dr. Drew.”

[...]

In his apology, Pinsky noted he was “part of a chorus” that was equating coronavirus to the flu. He said he didn’t understand the ferocity of the illness and had been primarily looking at the number of influenza cases.

That's confidence inspiring, not.

Ad hominen, Bart.
