I worked until 3 AM Tuesday night/wednesday morning, and I'm not doing anything nearly so important.  So who gives a fuck.

    Welp, it finally happened. I snapped in public today. I went into work for a bit this morning because I’m trying to figure out the safest way to host physicians we are recruiting given our CV-19 sit

  • I don't really know what to say anymore tbh. What happened last night is hard to put into words for anyone who hasn't worked in a hospital healthcare setting. Just unreal. Everyone is getting fucked.

As one of the "CR people" who crashed their thread and ruined it . . . I posted some simple calculations with absolutely no political commentary whatsoever.  Boy, they didn't like that.

I think you got into an internet pissing match with some other cunt, and that is what people didn’t like.  

 

Carry on! 

When Trump stands back while other people speak, he always looks like he is trying to hold in a huge shit. He's a strange mofo.

Did anyone catch one of the President's prescriptions for the economy? Reinstitute the deductibility of the three-martini lunch. I am not shitting you. He is this out of touch. 

 

I work as a server in a restaurant. Dotard is incredibly dumb, even by his standards, to make this statement and think it was smart.

He said he is stepping out and will be right back

"Antibody levels do not always correlate to immunity"; at least that is what this article states. Take it for what it's worth. It's complicated because of a variety of factors. Immune systems, testing, etc. https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucelee/2020/03/15/can-you-get-infected-by-coronavirus-twice-how-does-covid-19-immunity-work/#70dd41bf5c0f

 

On a more straight forward note, can someone ask if these tiny minded governors from red states talk amongst themselves? Trying not to anger the church goers at Easter?

 

Abbott did the same thing.  Quite plainly, what they did is grant evangelicals special dispensation to murder their fellow citizens in the name of their "religion."

We already have multiple examples of large religious gatherings being the source of spreading, deadly infections.  Abbott and DeSantis said "we're cool with that."  They are accessories to murder, and history should write their names in blood.

Everybody else excited about this corrupt bunch of assholes rationing medical care??

America, fuck yeah!!

Cough....death panels....cough.  Every accusation is a confession.  By fucking up healthcare and pandemic planning this badly, they made triage decisions as to who lives and who dies unavoidable.  EVERY ACCUSATION - every single one -- they have made come true.

If you want to know what to fear from the GOP next, just read a list of their complaints and list of horribles, and find the ones that haven't happened yet -- they will.

Any word on whether this came straight from the top?

Any surprise if that is the word?

Singing God Bless America in Massachusetts so it's all good. 

Here's a text from a nurse friend in a north Houston hospital:

"You all stay safe, stay home this is horrible. It's brutal. I just lost 2 patients in 30 minutes I'm helping ER."

"It's a horrible death. Gasping for air with absolutely no one [family members can't be around, as we know] I got double geared up just so I could hold one of them."

Fuck trump and his bullshit and anyone who still supports that sumbitch. 

So he's stepping out because of why? He said he was tested again today for Covid-19 and it came back negative.

Is he to weak to stand around while others speak or has he had enough of this and is just saying "fuck it"?

Correction to my earlier post on the update today - Birks is there now. Pence is speaking. Trump had to step out, but will be back. Jared and others are there as well.

Ok. I had just tuned in. Still seemed pretty low energy none the less......his eyes did look a little more pink around the edges, though it could just be his make up.

so once again, referring to trump as a "wartime president".  i get that this strokes his ego (why else do any of this?), but is that really something he considers resume-enhancing come november?

Au contraire.  Had we done nothing, 2.2M Americans would have died.  We might only lose 0.5M Americans; ergo, success.

And they would be wrong. Because fewer would have died but for their massive incompetence.

He's right that we are overly dependent on foreign countries in the case of a pandemic crisis.

Yes, I know.  We must outsource everything because we are unwilling to pay above slave labor rates to stare at flat screens and satiate our consumption desires.

We need video of patients on ventilators struggling and patients who need ventilators drowning in their own fluids to bring this horror into focus. I do not know what form variuos Americans' rage will look like, but it could get pretty fucking nasty. And it should. I can't imagine fancy tap dancing about the ebil WHO and the Chinese is going to get the government leadership off the hook when people have their family members and friends stacked in refrigerator trucks outside the over-crowded ICUs around the country.

Trump will likely have to issue a shelter in place after the crisis passes just to try to keep the mobs out of the streets. After he's ousted, the shitstain will have to shelter in place himself to avoid peltings of excrement and rotten fruit.

If Trump's successor grants a universal pardon to Trump, that successor should have to serve the time himself. No escape from justice and, frankly, vengeance over so many dead.

Yep.  Ask Il Duce about the glory of being a war time President on the losing side.

So new Republican talking points:

The US inability to respond adequately is due to:

1.  It's all a conspiracy, people aren't dying.

2.  It's the WHO's fault.  Fire that person.

3.  It's China's fault.  They should not have hid this from us

 

4. Impeachment distracted us from fighting it

he is really on-point today with his complete non-committal answers.  barely even sniffing a coherent answer on even the noncontroversial stuff.

"yeah, i think it might be.  i think it definitely is, but then again, it may not be, it could be, but you know, it always, it could be to where it isn't, and it's the other thing.  they should've had enough, and some of them do, but some of them don't, and some of them have too much, and others should've bought them before, and been ready, but several did buy enough, and some didn't, and then those people are ready, but some aren't ready, but a lot are, you never know who's ready, or who isn't ready." 

 

Now imagine scaling this stupidity for every hospital.

The difference between listening to a capable person like Birx clearly articulate her thoughts and a pudding-brained buffoon like Trump ramble on nonsensically.....its like they arent even the same species.

So, let me get this straight. Trump fired his national pandemic response coordinator and now trots out  Kushner, who was not elected, has ZERO medical training, no expertise, and whose sole qualification is that he is married to the woman Trump told Howard Stern he'd like to date?  This is essentially manslaughter.  And Kushner is up there talking ... but Fauci is missing?

Trump blaming states for the late response.
