there is nothing in the US economy, that's at its worst point since the Great Depression. You made a mistake and can't admit it. |

Aha! So you'll give the scientists the benefit of a learning curve, but not Trump, who is supposed to listen to the scientists.
You guys are unbelievable. |

You forgot...Second, the study was only about thin homemade fabric masks, not masks in general. Third, it's doesn't say homemade masks don't help, it just says there's not enough data to claim that they do.

A lot of people wear homemade masks as when the pandemic got rolling that's about all you could get. Now I see much more if not most people wearing much thicker commercially made masks or KN95's as I don't think N95's are easy to come by yet.
I don't know if the CDC has issued a recommendation on bandanas or neck gators but I don't see much of that around here. The bandanas seem to mostly be people who don't want to wear a mask but need to walk into the store or get some nips after work.
Regardless, none of this is really material to the fact that you still haven't provided a single link that proves "There are peer reviewed studies showing masks do nothing." |

That said, from your factchecker: "in review, GlobalResearch publishes a combination of real news and conspiracy theories." Being as there were synopses of peer reviewed articles, this should fall into the "real news" categories.
At any rate, you wanted an example. None of the studies, btw, said that masks did "nothing." To a nit-picking degree, Jim may be hard put to find a peer reviewed study that proves that masks do nothing. But more important is that there are differing scientific opinions about various aspects of the virus. That leads to uncertainty in the public.
And, more importantly, blaming Trump for the mask controversy, especially in the important early stages where many "experts" downplayed the effectiveness or necessity of wearing masks, is more politically motivated than factual. |

Putin orders national mask mandate as coronavirus cases spike in Russia.
Perhaps this is what will convince Trumplicans that Putin really is a bad guy! Or maybe it will convince them to wear masks. Good in either case!

The way TDS sufferers brains are wired, if Trump said stay home and wear masks from day one, they would have held orgies in the streets while screaming about Trump being Authoritarian and trying to lock them in their homes.

There is never a consensus with Republicans unless its abortion or gun control
Where the only consensus lays in a small percent of their base no where else
Republicans party should change its mascot should be the 3 monkeys  |

6 days
The WH Office of Science and Technology yesterday released a list of first term accomplishments. The first item on the list was eradicating the COVID-19 pandemic.

i said there’s no consensus on masks, and posted 10 or so articles citing studies saying masks don’t work against this virus. i don’t know what party has to do with it, the fact is, there are scientists who say masks aren’t effective.
if you want to deny that, fine. all i’m doing is staing the obvious, but once again you display your willingness to deny all facts that don’t serve your personal agenda.
I wear a mask, ok? i’m no saying i agree with those studies. i’m saying they exist.

perfect consensus? nothing, probably. but americans tend to like the gop position on taxes, border policy, letting the free market lift us all, personal liberty, no 9th month abortions ( public opinion may be changing there, i don’t know), strong national defense, no court stacking, etc...
do you think the gop is a fringe party? for several years now, we’ve had the senate and a large majority of state governorships and state legislatures. why do you think that is? the gop had had an amazing run since 2010. an amazing run, that lasted ten years.
