"How cool would it be if Trump got 50 million write-in votes? That would certainly send a message to GOPe! :-)"

Do you really think even that would wake them up? They are so full of hate.

I think Trump did a good job on the pandemic. But there was room for improvement.

• Actually getting a vaccine out the door within a year. Was phenomenal.
• The fact that PPE was not replenished in the 3 years Trump was in office after having been depleted by Obama was a failure of the CDC and the other groups that shared responsibility.
• The mixed messages coming out about masks, "Dangerous for the public but needed for healthcare professionals" was a failure of the CDC and Pence who was leading the team. They should have been honest that they were caught in short supply.
• The country is still split and very emotional about mask requirements. I think Trump could have encouraged masks more, and should have repeated more often that he is not wearing one because the POTUS needs to communicate clearly and masks would impede that. But that issue was always no win situation.
• Trump did a great job getting ventilators when we thought there would be excess demand for them.
• Trump did a great job calling out China on medical supplies and trying to get production of critical supplies back to the US.
• Trump did a great job calling out China on not stopping the virus when they had a chance.
• Trump did a great job setting up temporary medical facilities when we thought we would need them. We didn't because of the lock downs.
• Trump did a great job in getting guidelines out but leaving lockdowns to the state and local levels. Those lockdowns imo did help flatten the curve. They would have been more effective imo if we had all worn masks during them, since they were only partial lockdowns.
• Trump did a great job demanding that the lockdowns end. And that the cure can't be worse than the disease.
• Trump did a great job pointing out Hydroxylchoroquine as a possible treatment. Unfortunately that became politicized and wasn't implemented. I think Trump probably ought to have run roughshod over them, but you have to pick your battles. The medical community should have done the right thing and didn't.
• The medical community didn't do the right thing over ivermectin either.

Who was the President’s point man on the pandemic? Yup, Pence.

Mittens just got the poll results back on his 2024 Presidential run.
“Stupid is as stupid does”

That really really really irritates him. And I’m glad it does.

Your paragraph made MORE SENSE than any post I've seen on FR for a long time. That was concise and to the point!!

Agree!!!!!!

[pollywog]

This is Romney signaling that Trump needs to be taken out of the picture by others means before then.

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!

And I don’t mean via wet work :) I mean via bogus prosecutions.

Thanks and what ticks me off more than anything is Hillary Clinton made up that whole Trump/Russia collusion hoax in 2016 and without ONE scintilla of evidence they held a congressional investigation into it for THREE YEARS, and after it was exposed as a hoax did anything happen to Hillary? Oh of course not! Did Nancy Pelosi hold a “impeachment” for Hillary so she could never hold office again? Of course not! Tens of millions of dollars wasted, hundreds of lives destroyed, innocent peoples life savings wiped out and NOTHING happens to her.

And to top it off, here we have massive amounts of evidence of cheating in the 2020 election by democrats, election laws changed, thousands of witness affidavits, evidence of machine tampering, ballot harvesting caught even on video and what do we get? NOTHING, not even an investigation for a DAY, all of it brushed under the rug and people who even mention it get shut down, banned, the Supreme court refuses to even HEAR the evidence. It’s unbelievable the double standard
