The New England Journal of Medicine (where stripers live not strippers) never gets involved in politics, yet felt they needed to state this administration has turned a crisis into a tragedy. Herd Mentality should have been the focus of this post, this administration is full of lemmings following the worst president in our history off the cliff.

The New England Journal Of Medicine Fact-Checks The Republican Debate


"In an editorial, the journal's editors attack the stance held by most of the Republican hopefuls that Planned Parenthood should be defunded. A separate opinion piece argues that there is nothing wrong with fetal tissue research, which helped ignite a firestorm that has led for Republican calls to defund Planned Parenthood, instead taking the position that anyone who opposes the research is a hypocrite unless they forego medical care. A third opinion piece argues that the military's decision to fund gender re-assignment surgeries for troops, a decision attacked during the debate as a waste of money by former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, is legally mandated and such a small cost that it doesn't merit public discussion.

It's not news that the New England Journal tends to be left-leaning --"

This is a confusing question. The Trump hating premise is that he did not act soon enough. But you want to disregard one of the important sooner things he did. If the accusation that things are not better because he didn't act soon enough, and the soon enough doesn't count because your "pretty sure" (again with the pretty sure self validation) that the soon stuff's "ship has sailed," then on what basis are we supposed to judge whether things are better or worse?

Since this is a fishing site it would be like stepping into a choppy surf with your brand new waders, but forgetting your belt to keep water out, but you think it’s safe enough. The waders keep the water out initially, but enough eventually splash in to the point it’s getting hard to move off the bar you fish only until the incoming tide gets to a certain point. Obituary says Scott died doing what he loved and DeBarr was tasked to say a few words as they heard he was a wordsmith extraordinaire.

"don’t fall back to Jims lame partial travel ban saved so many lives,"

If you can find a post where I said anything like that, I'll drive to any location you pick, and put $100 into your hand.

What I keep saying, is that about the only real policy he implemented, was travel restrictions. And that the entire left (elected officials, media, everyone) said that was an overreaction.

The feds got the hospital ship to NYC, they got respirators to hot spots, they converted the Javits center to a hospital (not necessary as it turned out).

I've asked the gang of liberals here, at least 5 times, what are you saying Trump should have done, based on what we knew then? Not one of you came up with a syllable. Zip. Zilch.

Sure, his language and style are atrocious, but that didn't get anyone sick. At one point, the governors of both NY and CA (neither one of which is a Republican) said Trump was doing a great job helping them.

One more time...please list some steps Trump should have taken back in December/January, based on what we knew then. And keep in mind, all the democrats were saying then, that the virus was so benign that even a partial travel ban was an overreaction.

In terms of policy, what more was he supposed to do?
