1. I expect to hear a lot of this starting very soon. He's going to be run out of office

If he sees it to the election, he'll get his ass whooped and he knows this. He's wounded and failing and flailing.


Expect it to get worse.

If that's the case, I don't think fox News has gotten the memo yet. When they turn against him, it will be the end.

11. By the time Biden takes the oath of office

I see the number dead at about 1,380,000. And it will not stop there. No matter what Biden does, it will be too late. It will take time to stop it.

15. I am not sure I believe in herd immunity, but if true,

331,000,000 people times .7 times .6% mortality rate equals 1,390,000. I do think that we will have an earlier flu season because of autoimmunity problems. We will probably have flu and Covid-19 in October with people getting both. Not enough ventilators or ICU rooms. Too many people want to get out and party. Probably even more reasons than that. They will all add up to more deaths. Some of what I wrote might be right and some will be wrong, I just do not have any faith left in our government nor in the human race as a whole. Yes, there are some very good people in this country, but not enough. 50% is not enough, even 70% is not enough. The other 30-50% will get a lot of people killed.

16. There is plenty of reason to be pessimistic.

There is a hard core of people that just don't get it. Having idiots leading the country at the national level and in some states certainly doesn't help matters.

I am Black. Covid19 has done a lot of damage to Black peoples. Yet, I routinely see lots of Black people not wearing masks or observing social distancing. Some have bought into the faith versus fear BS that is prevalent in my part of Florida, unfortunately some of them won't make it.

In the end you can control only those things that you can control, beyond that you have to accept that people control their own destiny in the case of the virus, and not let that get you down - that is a hard mentality to take on, but if one is to maintain one's sanity, it is an absolute must.

on to spew her lies unchallenged a few weeks back.

I do have to give it to him though for being the first news host that I know of to call for the orange turd's resignation.

12. I heard him, too, when he said it.

I'm glad he said it like he did.

I know there are some folks on here who don't like Chris Hayes, but I think he's great. The entire lineup on MSNBC from 6:00 until the Rachel re-run comes back on at midnight, is just incredibly good to watch. I'm also glad Joy Reid is going to be taking Tweety's place. She and Ali Velshi have both been really great at taking the hours for the other nightly news pundits when they're out.
