These mother fuckers brought covid to the debate

[boston bean]

Walked into the affair wearing masks, making hosts think they would wear them throughout and then promptly took them off as a fuck you! No one can tell tell us very important people what to do.

They are such selfish assholes.

[samnsara]

1. they are now the face of the virus...

[tetedur]

2. They should have been escorted out.

They were offered a mask and they "waved them off."

They should have been given the choice leave or wear a mask.

Once again, they get away with not following the rules.

[Lock him up.]

20. Nobody is BRAVE enough for doing that. A bunch of wimps...

... scared shitless of Twitter...

[Demsrule86]

32. I live in Ohio. There are 12 people on the ground who were working to set everything up

and monitor the room who have tested positive for Covid in Ohio. Those f'ining entitled, stupid, arrogant Trumpers should pay every damn hospital bill. I hope to God they have not infected Biden. And as for the VP debate, if 12 feet is too much separation between Harris and Pence then don't have it- fuck them. They can not be trusted.

[Lock him up.]

33. +++

[Demsrule86]

36. Thank you...I am pissed. All those folks trying to make a living who had to deal with the loser

Trumper family and other assorted selfish, idiotic assholes...deserved better from these morons...who are without a doubt some of the worst humanity has to offer.

[DonaldsRump]

3. Has anyone in the media asked these fools (the Trump family) about this?

Also, I found this contact info on the Commission on Presidential Debates if you want to voice your outrage for allowing this to happen:

(note: this is for the media, but I suppose anyone can use it to convey email or telephone calls to the CPD

Commission on Presidential Debates at [e-mail] or by phone at [phone].

[BeyondGeography]

4. I'll relax when Biden tests negative on Sunday or Monday

Trump was spewing virus all over that room.

Here’s what the Times wrote this morning: “The president and Mr. Biden were at lecterns more than six feet apart at the debate. At that distance, Mr. Biden might have had protection from larger respiratory droplets released by the president, but not from aerosols lingering in the air... Mr. Biden tested negative for the virus on Friday. Still, given that Mr. Biden was only recently exposed, ‘He should quarantine and get tested again.’”

[LisaL]

10. Incubation period is up to two weeks.

4-5 days most common.

[chriscan64]

5. The price they will pay

for bringing it to the literal debate is that now they have put it front and center of the rhetorical debate. If they want to change the subject now, I would be happy to go back to Trump's tax returns.

[ResistantAmerican17]

6. There just don't seem to be enough invectives, criticisms, even profanity

to describe accurately this deplorable, despicable, arrogant, selfish, treasonous family.

[malaise]

7. Some of us didn't think Joe should participate in any debate

because we know these fuckers are undiluted evil.

[Raster]

8. tRump* family are selfish assholes.

[LisaL]

9. The whole freaking family of covidiots showed up at the debates

and sat there unmasked. Why were they not escorted out?
And as a result of them sitting there, and Trump standing there screaming, we don't know yet if they infected our candidate or his spouse.

[DemUnleashed]

11. VP Debate

I don't think Kamala should do the VP debate! I'm worried for her if she does

They can do it virtually if they want to debate!

[LisaL]

12. At this point I agree.

Pence should be in quarantine, if he was in close contact with Trump recently, not having debates.

[gab13by13]

13. She should go

but request a big fan blowing toward Pence.

[Captain Zero]

27. Heheheh. What would be wrong with a ZOOM debate ?

Republicans have the Covid Cooties and keep spreading it.

[llmart]

14. I agree.

She should absolutely do it virutally. Prop up a dummy that looks like Pence in a chair and get on Zoom. No one would know the difference between the dummy or the live Pence.

[IronLionZion]

35. I would hope they can be placed farther apart with a barrier in between

sitting at the same table as in other VP debates is too risky.

[world wide wally]

48. Joe should get a plexiglass shield in front of him

Like at the grocery store customer service counter.

[womanofthehills]

52. Kamala should do what Jaime Harrison did tonight

Bring her own big plexi panel to put between them

[Cha]

15. Joe Biden was dead on telling

trump,' with his big damn, fetid, rancid mouth, to "shut up, man".

[njhoneybadger]

16. You god dam right they did!

These Mutherfuckers were either trying to give it to Joe or didn't give a shit if he got it.

[Botany]

17. They "brought covid to the debate" on purpose in order to infect Joe Biden.

"They are such selfish assholes." And they wanted to murder Joe too.

I want to see Attorney General Glenn Kirschner appoint special prosecutor, and go after
them for their many crimes. Although by that time Donny may very well not be around
to be charged with any crime.

BTW we would not be going through all of this pandemic and death stuff if "they" hadn't
have stolen the Presidency from Hillary. The virus would have been stopped in China.

[CaptYossarian]

18. The Bidens and Sen Harris' family should wear 2 masks.

We'll do this N190 style.

[LisaL]

19. I can't even breathe through one for a long time.

How would someone be able to breathe through two?

[CaptYossarian]

31. I wear 2 at the clinic, where all the sick people are.

My monthly labs are the only time I leave the house.

The Internet takes me everywhere else.

[wnylib]

39. I've done it, and I have asthma.

Not all the time, just when I need to go someplace that I think is a little higher risk. (I take a couple inhaler puffs first.)

[lark]

21. If there is any inherent justice in the world, Miller, Iskanka & JarJar will get it badly.

It pissed me off when they pulled off their masks at the debate, clearly showing their disdain and hatred for everyone around them.

It would be hysterical if so many repug Senators get sick they couldn't win a vote on ACB. They are already down 2 (Lee and Tillis), 2 more and things get so much better.

[boston bean]

22. We already have Collins and Murkowski at least before the election.

[lark]

23. Yes, I now think it will be much more difficult to put her in before the election. - good.

However, I bet their plan will be to do this during the lame duck session when Murkowski and Collins will most likely vote yes and repugs will put her in office to "settle" the clear election results which puts them out of control or basically to steal the election for the rw fascists.

[Captain Zero]

28. Could cause a quorum call problem for them.

If enough Republican Senators are in Quarantine and enough Dems just don't show up. They might not have a quorum to do bidness.

[lark]

29. Don't want Dems getting sick, but not having a quorum would be a good thing.

Any votes they have would be destructive, any committee meetings the same, this repug Senate can disappear for a while and we will be far better off. They won't approve a stimulus without get out of jail free cards for business and so far Dems are saying no, so nothing good is getting stopped - just more rw treachery.

[Demsrule86]

40. And they infected Cleveland Clinic employees who had to be there...I am hearing 12 people.

[lark]

51. This is crazy - how fucking insane and awful can one family get?

[wnylib]

42. That occurred to me, too.

But it also occurred to me that the infected R Senators could infect Dems.

It's as if they are deliberately trying to take down the government.

[MustLoveBeagles]

53. It's possible RBG may get her final wish after all

[lark]

58. That is something I would pray about.

Please oh please, I beg of you great Gaia.

[BlueNProud]

24. The remaining debates need to be done remotely

They are trying to kill Biden

[Roisin Ni Fiachra]

25. What if Trump knew he had the virus prior to the debate,

and his devious little mind decided that his only hope for saving his campaign was to infect Joe with the virus?

The amount of time he spent SHOUTING his insane spew directly at Joe, and how quickly he displayed moderate symptoms and was hospitalized after the debate, makes me wonder if his rude, angry, shouted interruptions were not part of a sick, twisted strategy to save his campaign.

I would never even consider such a thing if this were a decent, normal human being who was debating Joe, but this was Donald Trump, a lying, corrupt, thoroughly dishonest narcissistic sociopath, who cares nothing for anyone or anything other than himself.

Farfetched, maybe, but this is Trump, who has already proven to be so shamelessly corrupt and dishonest that I personally think he is capable of any unspeakably wicked behavior, if he feels this behavior will serve his selfish purposes.

[boston bean]

26. Certainly provides a reason for his actions on debate night.

Beyond the usual cretinous actions we all have come to expect.

[Ligyron]

34. The whole timeline we are being given doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Which means they're lying about something as usual, that's Occam's take on it.

More info will be forthcoming but for Trump to get that sick that quick he must have gotten a tremendous amount of Covid in him. "I've got Covid but will stay here at the WH to work for the American people", to him getting an experimental cocktail and then being rushed to the hospital via helicopter and afterward about as close to a news blackout on his condition as they can possibly get away with.

Something's rotten in Denmark alrite.

[OnDoutside]

37. I wouldn't go as far as to say he wanted to infect Joe, but I believe he knew he had tested positive

and refused to miss the debate. With Chris Wallace confirming that Trump arrived late in the afternoon before the debate, too late to be tested, it looks like they did it deliberately. If you remember, it was well remarked that he looked sweaty at the debate (more than usual anyway).

Welcome, by the way Good to have another one of us here !

[Roisin Ni Fiachra]

44. Thanks for the welcome!

Glad to be here. It's our patriotic duty to save our country, and our children's future, from the authoritarian fascism being forced upon us by Trump, McConnell, and most other Republicans.

[OnDoutside]

46. There's a great bunch here, I'm sure you'll enjoy it !

[PatrickforO]

43. Yes, let's hope Biden in still 'in the clear' when he gets tested next week.

And I am with you - I can easily imagine Trump purposely doing this.

[bdamomma]

56. Was tRump

tested before or after the debate?? either way he was spewing non-stop at the debate,


I hope Joe is okay and Dr. Jill.


tRumps are evil all of them.

[Beringia]

30. People with entitlement think they are immune from so much, except their leader I suppose

[IronLionZion]

38. He claimed Hydroxychloroquine was protecting him

as a preventive measure or something like that

[PatrickforO]

41. The country is turning against Trump, though. I'm seeing a lot of anger

about him catching it because of stupid, irresponsible behavior. That whole family needs to be investigated, indicted if appropriate (it will be), tried, and sentenced to time in federal prison.

[wnylib]

45. An irresponsible leader is not really a leader

and should not hold a leadership position.

[PatrickforO]

49. And he would not have been put in this position without Russian interference

coupled with decades of Republican voter suppression.

[wnylib]

50. Very true. So when he's gone, there are

still people who will promote the next version of him.

There is a Republican pattern. Reagan was feeble-minded before it was publicly announced. Bush Jr. was like Reagan 2.0. Trump is Reagan 3.0 when it comes to mental unfitness for office.

With Trump they got someone as unfit as the first 2 but not as capable of being manipulated.

[world wide wally]

47. I just want them all to get sick to the point where they feel like they have to die to feel better.

Then they can recover...Slowly.

[bdamomma]

54. hmm.....

I hope this gets reported more.

Con thug.

He put so many people at risk, he is our biggest risk.

[Kid Berwyn]

57. No one has spread more disinformation about COVID-19.

Study Finds ‘Single Largest Driver’ of Coronavirus Misinformation: Trump

Cornell University researchers analyzing 38 million English-language articles about the pandemic found that President Trump was the largest driver of the “infodemic.”

— The New York Times

[bdamomma]

55. hmm.....

I hope this gets reported more.

Con thug.

He put so many people at risk, he is our biggest risk.

[bdamomma]

60. Russia

uses poison on their political opponents tRump uses a virus, both are criminal thugs.
