1. He's admitting he could care less if you die,

But his policy all along was to do nothing , and spread the virus instead.

[Faygo Kid]

9. It's I couldn't care less, but I agree

I'm an old retired copy editor, and agree with your sentiment, but can't help myself!

[calimary]

14. Yep.

[Fritz Walter]

17. I'm also in the Grammar Police

Our mission: “To Correct and Serve.”

As a J-School alumnus, I cringed when I saw that as well, but also agreed with the sentiment.

2. One Is Reminded, Sir

Of a cartoon in which a herd of sheep gather before a billboard depicting a wolf whose slogan is 'I will eat you!'

One sheep turns to another and says 'Hey, he tells it like it is....'

[calimary]

15. Oh MAN that's a good one!

[The Last James Left]

18. Trump Would Eat People if They Were Slathered in Butter

Or is that one of his sexual kinks? I keep getting the two mixed up!

3. For a second there I thought that was his deficit spending graph, nearly 1/3 of all U.S. debt

He cannot brag about a robust economy that's been sucking on the teat of red ink this whole time. No balanced budget as he promised, nor any pay down. Quite the opposite. He's added nearly something in the order of $7,000,000.000.000.

Robust economy. MY ASS!

7. Jennifer Rubin's calling the pandemic a "mass atrocity."

But at 300,000 dead heading for half a million, with the Republican leadership calling for herd immunity at a sacrifice of millions of people, even if achievable, let's call it was it is: A holocaust.

But for a grim smile:

8. As are the Republicans, nationally and states

Like Wisconsin's Republican legislature: no Covid help. Only obstruction and lawsuits. As we are dying.

10. how can the UNITED STATES not SEE that the Trump Administration

has failed its people! This Country NEEDS A BLUE TSUNAMI .... to wash away this problem. Imagine a super Majority, and that our government ends up with a Democratic House. Senate , and Presidency.

[maxsolomon]

12. Because, collectively, we are not that intelligent.

We may need those things, and we may get close this time, but the pendulum swings back because RW Propaganda is a powerful force that influences the minds of people who will not think.

[maxsolomon]

11. President Nihilist.

Life is meaningless and everyone dies anyway, so what the hell have you got to lose?

[sandensea]

13. The best, most beautiful numbers

Like you've never seen, folks.

20. Ruh Roh. The 7 day moving average of new U.S. cases has reached an all-time-high

69,814 cases, exceeding the previous mid-July peak. So it's not just an outlier one day spike kinda thing.
