        It doesn’t trigger me, but I still don’t understand the pull? He talks a lot. Makes things sound better than they are. What did he really do besides make people hate each other and give the rich a tax break? For us normals, my life didn’t get one bit better.

        We need to do more studies and then make sure to increase the official number. Trump and the GOP killed more Americans than any other event in our history.

        I moved to key west last March and so many people have described a “flu” in December 2019 that knocked everybody down and people were mysteriously dying. Makes sense it came here early since it’s an international tourist destination.

        I have this tiny memory of people saying the same thing during the protests in Hong Kong fall of 2019. “Scary cold/people are dying”.

        Very sad! But since we survived we need to congradulate and feel good about ourselves even as we mourn others.

        You kill one person you go to prison maybe forever. You kill hundreds of thousands by saying you "like to playdown the virus" and mocking masks while a deadly airborne pandemic kills people in a country you're in charge of protecting, you get the eternal worship of the GOP.

        Josef Stalin said 'The death of one man is a tragedy . The death of millions is a statistic. Stalin was a dark triad > not a nice man.
