that be on the right must want fewer Americans. They seem consistant on that across all their policy platforms, with the exception of fetuses.

Not by getting political, just by explaining that I did it, trying to serve as an example. One of them put his name on a list and I'm not done bringing it up. And the other one is an older gentleman who has some heath issues - so I used a link I found right here on DU, showed him that the local pharmacy he was familiar with has the vaccine, so he's bringing it up with his doctor this week. I didn't ask them how they voted, I only suspected, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to try.

Tell them if they’re worried about that Bill Gates micro chip...just run a magnet around the injection site and the chip won’t work!

I laughed until I cried!

10. So Trump's idea of getting the vote out is to kill his supporters with COVID?

Of course on the flip side every one of us Democratic voters by 2022 need to get vaccinated, wear a mask and finally: Vote in the general, primaries, primary runoffs, special elections even for the local dog catcher etc.


VOTE!

And Trump's idea of killing off the voters is bound to backfire - since it's his supporters who are refusing to get vaccinated - thanks to his secrecy and lies. If he had advocated mask wearing and promoted the vaccine, had set an example, it would be much different, but instead he held maskless super spreader events and told them to drink bleach.
