Donald Trump Is Trying to Kill You
The New York Slimes ^ | 04 April 2019 | Paul Krugman

Posted on 04/06/2019 7:58:25 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

There’s a lot we don’t know about the legacy Donald Trump will leave behind. And it is, of course, hugely important what happens in the 2020 election. But one thing seems sure: Even if he’s a one-term president, Trump will have caused, directly or indirectly, the premature deaths of a large number of Americans.

Some of those deaths will come at the hands of right-wing, white nationalist extremists, who are a rapidly growing threat, partly because they feel empowered by a president who calls them “very fine people.”

Some will come from failures of governance, like the inadequate response to Hurricane Maria, which surely contributed to the high death toll in Puerto Rico. (Reminder: Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens.)

Some will come from the administration’s continuing efforts to sabotage Obamacare, which have failed to kill health reform but have stalled the decline in the number of uninsured, meaning that many people still aren’t getting the health care they need. Of course, if Trump gets his way and eliminates Obamacare altogether, things on this front will get much, much worse.

Paul Krugman is one of the most highly placed incendiary idiots in American letters.

How a man as dumb as Krugman got where he is in academia and journalism is a demonstration of the low value and high politicization of academia and journalism today.

Obviously this guy thinks his audience is a collection of stupid sheep, for which he has no respect at all.

They can just repeat any lie they want, without fear of censure or termination.

Check out the emergency rooms...FREE to anyone who can't pay.

We're over doctored and over medicated.

I'm 75 5'4" 116 lbs BP 110/65.

I started to take probiotics (Dr. Oz)....and then said....for 74 years I've been going every day at 3 pm. And I stopped taking them.

Then i started with a baby aspirin. Even a non-doctor person like me knows everything is thinning and hanging and the risk of bleeding internally is a bigger risk than heart attack etc..

So I stopped that.

AND I have some great genes. Very lucky.

krugman is the most insane of all the nyt staff. Trump will save Americans from being killed by savage beard-bearing terrorists.

Not going to bother reading any further than what was posted. Every paragraph was either wrong or an outright lie.

This is called “projection”.

Now let us take Krugman’s logic all the way through.

Donald Trump and his supporters are trying to kill large numbers of people.

Therefore it’s perfectly acceptable, in fact it would be “self defense” to start preemptively killing them first. They’ve already got the updated version of Brown Short goons, Antifa and the like, out in the streets attacking folks on our side, beating them, threatening them and their families, and smashing them in the head with bike locks. (Whatever happened to that guy?)

Smollett attempted to foment violence with a hoax so transparent even the Chicago PD and a Grand Jury composed of Cook County residents had to indict him and yet a Leftist States Attorney with an agenda tried to cover the entire thing up.

Almost no one has asked what would have occurred should a couple of white guys been picked up and placed in a lineup for Smollett. All he’d have had to do is say “those two” and some poor saps would be looking at 20 years in prison with their lives destroyed over a lie.

So face it, my friend. The Left hates us and wants us dead. So they accuse us of trying to kill people so they can do that very thing to us.

I’ll expand on my tagline here. Peaceful coexistence with these people isn’t possible because that’s not what they want. They want total control over us and they’re willing to kill us to get it. They’ve come right out and said it.

We need to pay attention to them and most importantly believe them.

They mean it. We ignore that at our peril.
