@coldjoint,
so i watched the first minute and it's nothing but rant. what you guys are trying do is disenfranchise the 80 million americans who voted for biden, seven million more than voted for trump. Fortunately responsible republican (and democratic) election officials and the courts at all levels up to SCOTUS are not letting the diehard trumpies diisenfranchise the majority of the country.They recognize trump's plaints for the lies they are.

I was just listening to Ron Johnson making a statement that he’s resisting the $1200 stimulus and $600 unemployment payments because it could hurt our national debt.
Republicans are going to now all of a sudden switch back into deficit hawks niw that a democrat will be in charge, and that is predictable hypocrisy.
But I have a serious question. Why do republicans fight so hard against things like giving money to people to help them survive?
They can’t be so blind or evil that the needs of millions of their constituents don’t count, can they? They certainly are aware that the amount of money in question isn’t a drop in the bucket compared to the trillions they agree to in tax cuts and other giveaways to the rich., aren’t they? They certainly are aware that a lot of working people have suffered during 2020, and are in genuine need of help - aren’t they?
They have to have seen the food lines and they know the sheer numbers of dead because of Covid, right? They have to be aware that not only would the checks help people survive, but that the money is spent and goes right back into the economy, don’t they?
So why do they fight so hard against regular people getting a little money to help them through? Are they just evil? Is it because their donors tell them to?
Every time Wall Street asks for a boost, our government is right there with billions. When rich people want another tax cut, or someone proposes another increase in defense spending, there’s rarely an argument.
And they never seem to worry about those expenditures harming the national debt.
Unless they are just plain uncaring, unfeeling and evil... I just don’t understand it.

Do you know only 6% died from Covid alone? The rest had other issues.
Say you are in a theatre with 1000 people, and it’s announced that before anyone can leave, 60 of them must die.
From what you say here, your attitude would be like “Oh well it’s only 6%.”
That’s just crazy.
@coldjoint,
So once agan doing due diligence on your "news", knowing how skewed it can be by vested interest reporting, I wondered how many extra poll workers are needed to run a presidential election...because it is very obvious that many people get hired just for the election count (and so don't get their contracts renewed afterwards)
https://edition.cnn.com/2020/08/13/politics/poll-worker-shortage-2020-election/index.html
Quote:The numbers are staggering. Maryland announced in late July that it was short nearly 14,000 Election Day workers -- prompting Republican Gov. Larry Hogan to consolidate precincts into voting centers, in part to reduce the number of people needed.
It would be interesting news, the workers whose contracts were not renewed, if they had been full time for years up to the election. That information I can't find in the article - which would have greatly strengthened the issue...but once again...they fail to report on the important information (as the rest can be skewed to meet an agenda)

Poor bastard.
He will survive like 99.7% do.
Are you still here? I thought you might be somewhere else setting fire to kittens or something.

Now you are just being redundant. Of course it's crazy and so is that unfortunate "boy who cried wolf" sap.
@glitterbag,
I think you are seeing her devising her "Final Solution"....... It's back to clearing the world anyway possible of the old, lame and non white!

I watched most of it, and then I remembered he's from Missouri. You can take him, Gym Jordan, Marco Rubio, Matt (I adopt 15 year old boys) Gaetz, Louie 'I caught Covid from my mask' Gohmert, John 'I'm a despicable man' Kennedy and so many other liars and sycophants and when you boil it all down all you have is a pile of pathetic losers desperate for the power they will certainly abuse. Absolutely worthless individuals who are lucky their brain stems still power their nervous systems.,
