And what is the connection? That would mean this current inflation was caused in part by Trump.

If we're going to blame inflation on Covid stimulus, then any fair minded person would have to conclude inflation is ~50/50 Trump/Biden. OTOH, there are any number of narratives that one can create to place the blame wherever they please.

YES, the lockdown did start while Trump was in office, but he didn't approve it. He encouraged states not to do it and warned them that it will ruin the economy and they are overreacting.

The other countries did it do to money and power. Look at the countries that didn't lockdown, like Iceland. Still standing and going strong. All you dems kept saying that we will all die if we don't shut down. Stupid belief!!! And now you are all trying to keep justifying it rather than believe the science and just admit that your leaders lied to you, and you fell for it.

Trump was our leader. Nice try.

It is kinda odd how the Covid "game" played out. Anybody else that disagreed with Trump got canned immediately, but for some reason Fauci and others that were pro mask, pro lockdown, etc were allowed to remain in their positions. It's almost like Trump wanted a foil to battle against going into the election cycle.

Nah, I will blame Biden for the inflation. From day one he started reversing anything Trump did and for the entirety, so far, of his term has only worked to increase and continue this inflation.

Except it was a deadly virus, as I said my wife was scanning for renal failure. We're not going to have wars because of the lockdowns. The war in Israel is just in a phase of a war that's been going on for decades. The Ukrainian war is more complicated, but again nothing to do with the lockdown.

See you reply to things not like I said them. Have fun. Not doing this. I said it was not that deadly, as in it didn't kill that many people for how many people got it. Does your brain work? I'm not doing this stupid shit where you don't respond in proper context with what I said. If you think you did reply with proper context, you didn't. If you think it's a super deadly virus compared to other viruses just because it was highly infectious, you might be a...

We already are having wars because covid set the stage for it. Lockdowns caused economies and currencies to fail, big nations go to war to get extra economic support and to take advantage of power shifts, all of which is happen right now, DUH. Durr. Knock knock? Who's home? Not Jim.

Never said it wasnt...I've repeatedly said the check were a garbage idea

What you said made absolutely no sense. Trump did not approve the lockdowns, and he was only the leader for barely 7 months. He spoke highly against them.

I would say "Nice Try," but that was an extremely lame attempt to make a point.

Say what? Who did Trump fire for not agreeing with him on COVID? Fauci was extremely crooked. He came out saying that the lockdowns and masks are not necessary. Then, Fauci flipped when it was found out that he might have had a hand in the COVID-19 strain.

Trump was going to fire him, but he would have to wait until after the elections. Fauci just kept lying and being a puppet to the dems. Now I'm guessing you need proof again, because it appears dems have selective short time memory.

Also, if the vaccine is so safe and effective, then why are not all the CDC employees vaccinated?

Here, Fauci says masks don't work.


Here, he admits that vaccinated people still carry the virus and can spread it.


Here is says if you are vaccinated, it is very, very rare to get the virus, and if you did, you wouldn't have any symptoms.

AND...
I'm posting it again for all who still want to believe the COVID death numbers are accurate.

Excess Deaths Associated with COVID-19

Figures present excess deaths associated with COVID-19 at the national and state levels.

www.cdc.gov

OR,
Read this article.

Cause of Death Certification in COVID-19 Deaths - PMC

Appropriate cause of death reporting is vital in the pandemic circumstance for effective planning of the control measures. Accurate reporting and registration of the reason for death are crucial in planning of health programs in turn contributing ...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

For those who just want to get to the meat of it, here's the section you need to read.

Definition of Death Resulting From COVID-19​

As per the guidelines issued by WHO, death due to COVID-19 is defined for surveillance purposes as, “a death resulting from a clinically compatible illness, in a probable or confirmed COVID-19 case, unless there is a clear alternative cause of death that cannot be related to COVID disease (e.g. trauma)”.There must not be a period of complete recovery from COVID-19 amid illness and death.9

And here's what this means.
Surveillance purposes means no tests are required. Just visual inspections. Also notice where it states "a death resulting from a clinically compatible illness, in a probable or confirmed COVID-19 case."

1. It states it can be a compatible illness. Not necessarily COVID.
2. Notice where it states, "probable or confirmed COVID-19 case." Probable means it doesn't have to be 100% confirmed. It just has to meet one of the criteria.

Here is the proof. These are all from a government site, so there is no debating it. A government that is run by the democrats.

Can you all just admit you were duped and move on?

Can I get a **** Joe Biden from anyone?

 

[Old_Slapper]

I just can't with this Rob guy. He keeps asking for proof, so I show him an article from WHO, and he responds by saying they can't be trusted. Then I show him proof from the CDC, and he totally ignores it as if he never received it. I bring up CDC again, and he completely ignores it. I believe he is just a troll and is only on here to argue. Such a lonely man. I had to "Ignore" him because I just can't believe someone to be that ignorant.

Bob, if you need another coach to sleep on, I bet Rob would love to have you over.

So, I'm trying to get home insurance for my a house I'm buying. Because of Newsom's great new policies, all the big insurance companies will no longer open new accounts in Cali. I received a few quotes, and they were around $2500 a year. That is ridiculous! Thanks Newsom, for continuing to make life hard in this state. The good thing is, his plan is to jump into the presidential ring soon. For the sake of the failing country, I hope he doesn't. He can't even run state properly. I just don't get why people vote for him. I'm still trying to get someone to give me 3 good reasons I should vote for him.

You have to understand, Rob is not well. He is so far left that rational thought isn't in his vocabulary. Neither is not taking everything literal or personal. Other concepts like "common sense", "thinking outside of the box", "Seeing more than one point of view", and finally, "comprehension" elude Rob on a daily basis. He is all about one train of thought and one political party. Anything in opposition to that will be met with a brick wall and will be argued until you give up and leave the conversation... which is also his goal, you give up, he thinks he won something. The people who vote for Cali's govna are probably just like Rob.
