Every single accomplishment?

I find that impossible to believe.

He turned the economy around didn't he? Job creation? I mean those are pretty significant.

We didn't fuck up 2016. Trump and Republicans asked Russia for help. Which is against the law.

The Biden Administration looks like cucks right now. If they appeal and SCOTUS strikes them down, they can go to the base and say, "See? We tried to keep people safe, but Republicans want the virus to spread!" Somebody fucking fight for something already.

Could you elaborate on the CDC plan?

If it is what they have done in the past, they will be assessing the percentage of cases that are the subvariant and tracking that versus hospitalizations and deaths.

This would be within a context, though. Hospitals are no longer over capacity and turning away patients. There are no makeshift ICU's in basements or morgue trucks in parking lots. Death rates are flat. The primary worry for most people now is long covid from a prior infection.

What the CDC would be doing is making sure that there is no hidden negative trend under that, and thus far there does not appear to be one.

Maybe the voting machines/counting mechanisms should be looked at.

She’s a “democrat” trying to make it in a wingnut world. As long as you make it, that’s what matters! I will join everyone else celebrating the end of Covid…when it ends. But I won’t pretend it’s over for political points. (I don’t have a political career, or anywhere to redeem said points). Hell, I’ll dance in the street when Donald Trump expires! Until then, wear masks, avoid contact with people, especially Donald Trump.

You forgot Charlie Crist who is also running as a Dem, this time. He was a pretty popular gov. And thank you for defending us.

She's our secretary of Agriculture, which is a big thing in a state that made it's good ol' boy money (that floods Tallahassee) from cattle and citrus. They tried to cheat her of the win but she protested and fought for her win. My point is she's an active office-holder in the state. We voted her in, so most of us know who she is plus she has commercials on various subject.

She had to fight for it too, they tried to cheat her of the win.
