After that if I'm interested enough I know I need to checkout other sources to get the full context. That goes for pretty much any news source. I'm never fully confident in one single source. And as for political commentary I just ignore it. On either side the bias is usually on full blast.

It's quite simple. If you can't do those two simple things, then imho you aren't capable of rational debate. If you cannot accept facts when they are presented to you and proved to be true, there's no point in discussing anything because clearly the truth means nothing to you.

He was also the guy who sidelined science and made wearing a mask a political statement. He was also the guy who said it would be gone by Easter 2020 and it was just like the flu. He was also the guy who shafted the individual states and whose malfeasance had caused far more deaths in the U.S than otherwise should have happened. He is also the guy who opened the economy despite knowing that covid was lethal. The vaccine being ready and him being president has nothing to do with each other. Nothing. The research was ongoing independent of him. The idea that he should get credit for it is something only his most sycophantic supporters espouse. Utterly nonsensical. He should be pilloried for his gross incompetence. It's typical - Trump's supporters give him credit for goof stuff he didn't do and defend him from bad stuff he did do.https://twitter.com/kaitlancollins/status/1354449310654623746?s=19

everlast75 wrote: » From snopes The comment in question came shortly after a presentation by William N. Bryan, the acting undersecretary for science and technology at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, about how heat and humidity could impact the spread of COVID-19 during the summer months. Bryan mentioned a recent, non-peer-reviewed study that showed how disinfectants and sunlight could kill the coronavirus on non-porous surfaces such as counters or door handles. Bryan’s presentation focused on how light and disinfectants affected the coronavirus on surfaces. But when Trump took the podium, he started talking about what would happen if light and disinfectants were “brought inside the body” to fight the virus. Here’s the official White House transcript of Trump’s remarks (emphasis added): THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. So I asked Bill a question that probably some of you are thinking of, if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposing we hit the body with a tremendous — whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light — and I think you said that that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way, and I think you said you’re going to test that too. It sounds interesting. ACTING UNDER SECRETARY BRYAN: We’ll get to the right folks who could. THE PRESIDENT: Right. And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that. So, that, you’re going to have to use medical doctors with. But it sounds — it sounds interesting to me. So we’ll see. But the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute, that’s — that’s pretty powerful. Trump made this comment following a presentation on how sunlight and disinfectant affect the coronavirus. This presentation prompted Trump to discuss a question he said “probably some of you are thinking of” concerning what would happen if you “brought the light inside the body.” As Trump continued, he also offered his thoughts on how disinfectants could be brought inside the body “by injection.” While Trump noted that this method would have to be checked by doctors, he said it sounded interesting to him. The remarks spurred widespread condemnation from health officials, who issued statements urging people not to inject or ingest cleaning products. Dr. Vin Gupta, a pulmonologist and global health policy expert and NBC News contributor, said: “This notion of injecting or ingesting any type of cleansing product into the body is irresponsible, and it’s dangerous. It’s a common method that people utilize when they want to kill themselves.” But you know this. It's just more bs excuses for one of the worst presidents ever. PS - neither you or the other poster have accepted he was wrong.

I've gotten to the point where I'm almost defending him due to the media coverage he's gotten from pretty much day one..and the holy show the democrats have made of the entire American system over the last few years.. On the election, I was kind of watching the reports on the day of people being kept out of count centres..dodgy ballots all over the place.. Yeah, it will be whitewashed out of history but the whole "most bestest election ever held anywhere ever" is just ridiculous too..
