Yeah, there has been a measurable impact on pollution in China. It’s not just a lack of driving, it’s also all the factories being shut down.
I said “gaslighting” because these MAGAS know full well that our criticisms of Trump have to do with his handling of the virus and NOT that he started it.
It wasn’t necessary to label your comments “Nonsense”; we were able to figure that out for ourselves. The “etc” after the two parameters that uniquely and completely define the calculation did induce a bit of head-scratching, though.
How hard is it to make a self-own look so easy?
The etc was for the population of the US. You need that for the calculation. Who knows it might be 327.2m or it might be 327.3m.
ETA. Which reminds me the census is coming. I wonder how the pandemic will change the census.
Meanwhile, the America-hating fuckstick holds on to a cherished hope that the census will change the scope of the pandemic…
Just think, we were so close to finally having a Democratic president take over from a Republican president who hadn’t tanked the economy.
Too lazy to look for a link (and it is the pit), but saw an article that a high-ranking Chinese spokesman is blaming the US.
Apparently, there was some athletic competition in Wuhan just before the virus surfaced, and something like 700 US Army athletes attended. The growing story is that they were patient zero for the virus.
I’m stealing that.
You think the population of the USA is 38 million?
Same…
If y’all think 5YL is being snarky, or just referring to this century… no. Republican mismanagement of the economy has been a staple since the Civil War.
We think alike. And don’t forget Medicaid. Just think of the savings! 
Did you say Medicaid?
A: A team was fired.
B: It was a single person, not a team.
C: That single person was a Rear Admiral.
B: That’s true but has nothing to do with anything relevant. A Rear Admiral is a single person, not a team.
C: You and your desperate deflection!
Okaaaay.
I don’t know what you’re reading into this where that’s your takeaway but if someone is asking people to stop being lazy and to differentiate between “there” and “their” and you’re accusing them of being an agent of Satan, come to mislead the masses, then you might want to consider taking a break from the Internet.
“The Buck Stops Here”, Sage.
You can decry the “Trump fired the pandemic response team” as ‘fake news’ because it was his appointed subordinate who fired them/him, but…
“The Buck Stops Here”.
Remember Ken Lay? Oddly enough, the ex-CEO of Enron was, likely, ignorant of what Skilling and Fastow were doing… Ken was an oil guy, he wasn’t a McKinsey quant like the other two… but he’s still responsible.
Same principle applies. Did Trump fire the pandemic team, or was one guy laid off by John Bolton? It doesn’t matter, as Trump is in charge and he owns the actions of his closest subordinates.
Should be a sticky.
He’s gonna need to update that list…
LOL, no doubt. Might wait a few weeks, though… I’m sure there are going to be even more additions.
That is certainly true.
On this subject, Politifact says that Trump didn’t do it and Snopes says that the Trump Administration did do it. Both Politifact and Snopes are correct. They are not saying the opposite thing.
This is a subject of pedantry, not deeply held political convictions.
