| LIFE CV-19: Effects on life, work, and sports

Unqualified based on the fact that never in his life has he ever had any experience with anything that could ever possibly give him expertise in these areas. How is that difficult to understand?

You just compared a real estate developer - who also had experience (shitty experience but experience) in media - successfully using social media on a campaign to negotiating middle east peace, responding to a medical crisis, border security, etc.... Good grief. Yes, unqualified.

You seem to always find something very small, pick at it and pick at it and pick at it to make your point. I didn't say "Ivanka Trump is unqualified to give economic advice." I said she is unqualified for the position she has been given, Senior Adviser to the President. She supposedly gives advice and "council" on every thing involve in government. Donald Trump is also a graduate of Wharton, by the way...

The "economic turnaround" that started in 2010? That one? K...



Stereotypes. Just like you placing a stereotype of me being a stupid liberal thats just jealous of rich people. I have no problem with rich people. I have a big problem with the system and the way many of these people step on the heads of those under them to remain rich, however. And the fact that many of them are considered "successful" for no other reason then they wore born into wealth. If that makes me a horrible person, I will gladly accept that.

First off, I never called you stupid. I don't think you're stupid at all, just blind to most things you don't align with. Personally I think you're well written even with the attitude and vitriol you spew almost daily. Second, I believe in stereotypes. They are more right than they are wrong a lot of the time. Just politically incorrect, but not a bad way to gain some perspective while doing other research.

You don't have a problem with rich people? You are talking shit about them in this thread. Even your big Democratic supporters and donors are doing the same things you are unhappy with, yet I have never heard you say a word about them or their qualifications.

You don't know anything about Kushner other than his dad gave him money, he bought his way into Harvard, yadda yadda. I have a feeling Kushner would run circles around you mentally with what he has been exposed to. He still had to take classes and pass them even if he was bribed in with a donation. You are describing the Liberal playbook to a T. All hearsay, no facts. Don't you get onto QAnon folks for this very thing? And for the record, I think Kushner is a rat. I don't trust him, much like I don't trust Obama, Biden, or Hunter Biden. Ha, talk about a guy underqualified. Anyways, you just come off as very sour towards people that are in high ranking positions, not related to your party, and are targeted by the media. But once again, I don't think you're stupid as you put it.

At this point in time, the response is still being talked about negatively. I mean gracious, focus on the future and what is being done now. The past and furor cannot and will not change anything.

One last thing, Ivanka would run circles around us both as well mentally. She gets a bad rap because of her dad, but she has proven she can handle the spotlight in business and now in politics.

The fact that I'm being told I'm unreasonable for suggesting that a person with zero public health experience is unqualified to be overseeing FEMA's distribution of medical supplies during a crisis (let alone everything else he's supposedly responsible) is just insane and is just proof that this is like yelling into a black hole. I am beyond done.
You're asked a few questions, frustrating to you perhaps, and you're quitting? That's not a reasonable response

When neither of us know what his role is, other than face and title, is an opinion based on something we don't know reasonable? His role could simply be one who compiles reports from those doctors and others we've seen and it's discussed together: with someone he (POTUS) trusts as an "advisor."
 
@BamaBoyJosh. All your arguments are based on bias information. It is the liberal view. It would be good to not use a slanted toward liberal view to argue a point. Your education obviously is slanted one way. Please expand your education to include real facts from middle America. It will be life changing if you allow other opinions to help you. All of us at one time have changed from one belief to another. That is enlightening.
 
Her mom and dad have COVID-19. She writes about her dad's condition in the facebook post below.

Her dad is an 247Sports Ole miss beat writer, Eli her brother is a center at Ole Miss.

My sister has shared with me that her patients are dying alone without family by their side. This is terrible, nobody deserves this.

 
While there is not a vaccine available yet, the hydroxychloroquine is working in most cases. Why is there not more news about this. If it ain't working I want to know. If it is, why not give it to all up front before they need a ventilator. That's why I don't trust any media information that is spewing out. Just state the facts about that therapy and we can be assured of a possible treatment.

This disease started in December. Creating a vaccine or drug to treat a disease takes months or even years. Right now there isn't enough data on hydroxychloroquine's impact on the disease (when and why it works or doesn't work). The FDA has given approval to use the drug but that doesn't mean it will cure the disease. Their approval indicates that it shouldn't do harm.

The doctors administering the drug are a little busy to write up detailed notes on each patient. Clinical trials have not been performed (this is where typical review of success or failure is established).
 
Yes, please share, because I'm sure this is directed at folks like me since I compared the two early on. Of course I meant more from a symptoms and mortality rate, but when you call folks idiots I'd like to know why.

There is no proof whatsoever that hydroxychoroquine works. If it comes out of Butter Beans mouth VERY strong possibility it's not true.
The biggest problem now is it is used for other diseases and now it's being hoarded by those that believe anything that comes out of his mouth.
Very sad.
 
Here was MY experience with Covid...

It started with a low grade fever, but by the second day it was terrible. The highest my fever got was 104.3. But, the fever was the least of it. The pain in my chest was the worse pain I think I’ve ever felt. You have to move (like walk, pushups, etc) and do breathing exercises because it takes virtually nothing to get pneumonia and if you get that then it’s downhill, so even being dead tired, fever, and can’t hardly breath you have to move.

From the second day until the end I went through the worse pain I’ve ever been through, a brain hallucinating fever feeling so weak that talking felt like a chore, and relentless coughing because of the lack of air.

I’ll be honest I wasn’t 100% sure it was exactly how it was being played out in the media, but I can’t 100% say it fucking sucks. But, there’s no reason to be scared of it because you’ll live through it, but anybody in the category that everybody has been worried about I don’t believe will.
 
@BamaBoyJosh My thoughts are with your nurse friend. Her and everybody working the frontlines like her are heroes.

I got it at work, but I’m not on the frontlines, went to a domestic call and the husband was positive and we didn’t have ppe
 
Curious. What's gas prices looking like in your area? Say...lowest within a few miles from the house.

Parkers - $1.61 but their membership/club puts me at $1.51. (2 miles.)
Two stations about a mile from the house were .$1.56 yesterday.
 
I haven't seen any of these stores open in several days. I've been on the road, at some point, everyday except Saturday. Essential responsibilities ... gotta do what you gotta do.

A few days ago I came across the term essential goods when someone was talking about Walmart. A lot of these stores items can be found at Walmart.

One thing I've seen clarified about McMaster's new closures included gun/ammo stores as well as hardware stores. Both are allowed to remain open.

 
Yesterday it was $1.49 at the Walmart down the street here (North Texas).

We went to a nursery a few weekends ago to get some shrubs for the front landscaping. Are they essential? Dunno, but was happy they were open.

The amount of power the State government has right now on determining what is essential vs non-essential could be a bit too much. They could be controlling what businesses will survive.

If you are at deaths door, what have you got to loose. This is information we need. Why can't the media find out these statistics. Other than the bone head that took the fish tank cleaner there are no statistics published. I see individuals posting success on Twitter and Facebook but nothing official. Makes me skeptical of all information.

10-4.

I would like to know though cause the most puzzling thing is how we hear of one person getting it, but how are more families not getting it, especially if you don't know you have it for a couple of weeks and are in very close proximity. I admit I haven't taken it as serious as most, because I simply don't believe it's worse than other things out there killing people. I understand healthy people are dying, but a high percentage have inderlying issues related to the respiratory system. So then the ones that are getting better I began saying it ran it's course like the flu. I have to go into work, but I haven't left my house in four weekends, so I'm being careful, but I am not wearing gloves and masks either. This is just a very strange time to me. Probably more ignorance than anything.
