In anticipation of the U.S. coronavirus death toll hitting 100,000, House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) are asking President Donald Trump to order flags be lowered to half-staff “on that sad day of reckoning.”

the two Democrat leaders say that lowering flags on the day the death count hits 100,000 would provide “a national expression of grief”

I will express grief over the fact that Nancy Pelosi is SOTH and Chuck Schumer is still in The Senate.

Democrats are so reluctant to even say the word China when discussing the transmission of the virus. People around the world know the Chinese government was the culprit. What we need to know is how many leftist governments and political organizations around the world aided and abetted them in this exercise. You can bet some powerful Democrats have their dirty hands in this!

We would already be there if not for a couple of Democrat governors lowering their inflated death counts. The goal was to cloud the memorial day holiday.

Don’t do this Mr. President. They’re wanting to be able to jump up and down about 100,000 dead. The not mourning these folks...they’re celebrating.

Maybe Nanzi and Chuckie should take their own lives in honor of the covid dead. You know, a symbolic thing.

Have y’all noticed Nanzi has a color coordinated fake mask for all her outfits.

Some of us have smelled “RAT” since the get-go of this virus BS.
This was their “Plan B” IF impeachment failed. Well, this demoVirus is also going to fail. Who knows what evil they got dreamed up for “Plan C”. IF they colluded as expected, this needs to be made public prior to the election and those involved need to be hanged for mass murder, crimes against humanity, etc.

I’ve seen reports of fudging in both directions.

I’ve also seen a graph that showed that the amount of deaths that have occurred are higher than is account for by COVID.

I’ve seen anecdotal stories of people not counted because they died at home without ever getting a test.

I don’t think there has been that much fudging. Compare the US to the rest of the world. We look pretty low. Go to Worldometers and sort the country chart by deaths per 1M population. We’re #12 behind a bunch of mostly European countries.

The entire Democrat Party’s entire schtick is to feign moral superiority by falsly portraying themseves as more compassionate than everyone else, and then in true Macheavellian fashion, they kill anyone standing in their way of political power.

Democrats don’t care about people who have died from COVID-19 anymore than they care about sexually assaulted women. For weeks on end Democrats put on a national circus about how they so deeply care about and believed women, right up until the moment Biden got accused, or back when AlGore practically raped a massues, or when Clinton used his power to sexualy use an intern.

For years Democrats proclaimed they cared deeply about filthy money in politics (McCain-Feingold), right up until Obama raised a billion dollars much of it from foreign sources.

The Democrats cared so very deeply when Trump suggested he would wait to see the election results before making a final assessment. Outrage from compassionate Democrats who cared so deeply about how Democracy dies in darkness. The clucking of tongues in outrage at Trump Right up until Hillary lost and then there was a national movement by Democrats to “resist”, a term previously used in Europe during WWII.

The Democrats cared deeply about the rule of law and abuse of power during Watergate, right up until Obama machined the entire federal government into a political hit squad.

Every four years Democrats care so very deeply about Blacks and minorities, right until after any national election.

This never ending charade of how compassionate Democrats are is disgusting. If there was an honest national media the curtain would be pulled back to expose this true circus sideshow.

How many would have been saved if the house had worked on it instead of impeachment?
