You guys arguing over a bet that neither of you are willing to take. Correction, one of you isn’t willing to take and we know who that is. Time to move along regardless.

On another note, i can’t even quote anybody in a thread anymore. Which is new.

That's four posts since you said you were done, which I think is clear evidence that you realize that you didn't make your case and that you're making a fool of yourself.

Trump has been fucking up left right and centre and it would be hilarious to watch, if it wasn’t for the fact that people are dying. Fuck him.

Really dropped the ball. One would think there would be a contingency plan in place following recent events. There were specialists saying it's a matter of when, not if a big pandemic would hit globally.

Not like I had any idea of such a possibility, as was the case with most of us, but we don't have the best and the brightest the world has to offer advising us, nor are we saddled with the responsibility of being the figurehead for hundreds of millions of people. No bueno Cheeto!

Getting rid of environmental regulations was a much higher priority.
