COVID-19 2020

Well he knows his voters are dying from not being vaccinated and in close elections in certain states it could determine result.


I have never believed he is dumb like liberals like to say.

And before someone chimes in: the reason he wouldn’t move the needle months ago is back then it wasn’t disproportionately and to the same degree Trump voters dying…. Now that we have a few months to get vaccinated and boostered it is predominantly Trump voters

Six months ago he still benefited politically from being perceived as leading the anti-vax movement

Factor in all his potentially  dead supporters and it’s not quite as attractive

I agree with your analysis

but it's odd to see him do a 180 on something (or maybe I'm forgetting)

even with the easy to see data
and
that you are more likely to have a friend or family die if you voted GOP last election

He does 180s all the time… says different things depending on crowd and situation… his base has such a cult like devotion they hear what they want to…and when he lies to them and they know he is lying they don’t care….they also discount some of what he says if they disagree with it and think he is playing a master move on the people they hate… it’s beyond sick and twisted… if the media covers what he says as news they fall into his game and help him execute the con…

Unfortunately when he says something like this it’s covered as news..as significant… but it’s not because he will say the exact opposite the next time…. However he is a master charlatan and some people always fall for the con… in this case it will be reported as news and some people in the middle and wavering in support for Biden will think “See Trump is not so bad…he developed the vaccine and wants people to be vaccinated…all that stuff people say about him are lies..”

Wasn’t it Baltimore’s greatest son, H. L. Mencken, who said something like “nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people”?

Interesting what he actually said

just read that…this following quote is something
"it is assumed that they have ideas in their heads, and an appetite for more. This assumption is a folly.”

That strikes me about a lot of people, they don't need or want anything new in their heads.  I've always been drawn to add new things in my brain.  I just can't relate to those in society who don't have an appetite for more

Maybe it's because I'm a poster on the 9:30 Forum, but to me BTS means Built To Spill. Does it have another meaning?

Behind The Scenes

i assumed it's the k-pop boy band… hence my previous comment

No Jury Trials in Maryland state courts from now through Feb. 8.

4 college football bowl games have now been canceled because of Covid-19

(somewhat related: out of a squad of 53 players, 23 members of the New Orleans Saints were unable to play last night because of testing positive… yikes)

Go get it. Your name is “Chaz Jombi,” you’re homeless, have never gotten vaccinated, have no id or insurance and just wandered into this CVS today. You’ll have a fourth shot in five minutes.
