The incompetence has overwhelmed and exasperated many Americans.

They are tired of "winning".

If you believe Donald Trump is doing just what he said he would do, then you must really admire serial killers?

If ever the nation needed to be united, it is now. People need to hear words that unite us, not divide us. We need to listen to experts and scientists, not to know-it-all politicians.

People are tired. It is not just the fight against the virus that is wearing them out. It is the fight against incompetence and ignorance.

It is not enough to replace competence with bullshit. Sooner or later, it is exposed.

We see it now, without any clothes on.

And there are still At least 2 sides.

He won with his fake news BS, and so many use that as an excuse for every stupid thing he does.

Unity aint gonna happen.
Edit: those who like him just get pissed when MSNBC and CNN attack him, and go right back to getting brainwashed by Fox. Bottom line someone is always lying or slanting or clearly biased, and the fans get to chose who to believe.

We need to stay safe, stay out of their way as they " Jim Jones" themselves with the covid kool ade. they all deserve whatever shit they bring on to themselves.

I completely support their anti-distancing nonsense. Let them run free. Every time there is another dumb ass pastor, or politician that gets sick from practicing their beliefs it is one less knuckle head to put up with later.

into Harvard, yet here he is convinced he can run the entire country! He has read some books about certain subjects, then considers himself an expert. Every experienced, competent person who has quit or been fired from the WH has cited clashes with Kushner. He is in charge, unelected, unqualified, convinced he KNOWS more than anyone. He needs to be booted out, along with the racist Miller. This WH will have to be fumigated before a new president moves in.
