Here's why Trump wants us all to go back to work

[Arthur Brain]

When did Trump do that?

He's lied about corona for starters as is abundantly clear. He tried to bully people out of their own homes because he wanted to build a golf course in Scotland and they were inconsiderate enough to be in his way etc...

 

[Arthur Brain]

True. Fair enough.
What do you think of the 'people' when you go essential journeying and shopping?
99% I find the atmosphere to be amazing. People are acknowledging each other's every small action and gesture. In North Kent it's very very good, but maybe there's others who are moaning.... but I haven't heard them.
People are posting their contact details around here so that any in trouble can get help for different things.

I've had no problems. I went to B & M earlier and everyone was automatically observing the distance rules and in the queue too. It was quite funny when leaving because the automatic door was so slow and the guy behind me said: "Heck, even the doors are socially distancing from us...". I just turned around and we had a laugh.

 

[Arthur Brain]

So you are going to attack me by calling me a worshiping fawner and silly, but you are not mean and rude?

I'm not "attacking" you. You say I'm being mean because I criticize Trump. I'm not, it's justified. Then you go on about Boris Johnson and Prince Charles. If you want to criticize them then go for it, I sure wouldn't be offended or class it as "mean".

LOL. Yeah, Trump the only person on earth, let alone the only politician, that ever changes his position. That, in fact, shows his intelligence, his ability to learn, that he's humble enough to learn, and his willingness to change his position..

No, he hasn' lied but, China has lied about it, and continues to lie about it. There is no bullying or coercion happening to the American citizenry attempting to get people back to a sense of normalcy, and to rebuild what has been lost during this China virus crisis. The WHO has set the mortality rate at 3.4% percent worldwide which is pretty low considering the the world population is estimated at 7.8 billion, and here in the US there have been under 2500 deaths in a population of 331million which is well under 1% so, why not get our economy rolling again, get people back to work, save failing business', before we have bigger problems like economic depression. Trump is absolutely correct when he says " the cure cannot be more harmful than the disease", there are far more unpleasant long term effects to our nation than COVID-19 if we don't attempt to pull out of this soon. It is clear from your hyperbole that you hate the man, I, and judging from his high approval numbers, a majority of Americans agree that our president has, and continues to handle this crisis well. If you wanna place blame for lying about the severity of this virus from it's inception, than at least be honest with yourself, and place the blame where it belongs, right at the feet of the tyrannical communist regime that authored & has lied about it even to this day....China....They are not the world's friend, they are a threat to the world, and it is high time people recognize that fact.

I take it you will be attending packed church services come Easter, at Trump's direction?

I may but, it won't be by Trump's direction. Unlike you socialist types I don't take marching orders from the president or any regime leader. I haven't missed one day of work since this thing started & don't intend to live in fear of something that you, nor I have any control over. I have practiced social distancing, which really isn't an odd policy during any cold & flu season, washing hands often, and being clean are things we should all be practicing year around so, maybe I will be at easter sunrise service at church but, not because of anything our president encourages but, because I don't live in fear.

 

[ok doser]

doser, curious about eider's bizarre obsessive hatred of another country's leader, asks:

did Trump steal your milk money when you were in third grade?
take your best gal away from you in high school?
kick sand in your face at the beach?

unsurprisingly, eider punts

but artie steps up to the plate and takes a swing!

He tried to bully people out of their own homes because he wanted to build a golf course in Scotland and they were inconsiderate enough to be in his way etc...

OK - that's a good reason to have an irrational obsessive hatred of another country's leader!

Good job Arthur Brain

Can you see the obvious danger in that proposal?

 

[ok doser]

... here in the US there have been under 2500 deaths in a population of 331million which is well under 1% ...

these are the numbers I've been tracking:


First case
US: Jan 20
UK: Jan 30


Total cases/1 million population
US: 397
UK: 288

Deaths/1 million population
US: 7
UK: 18

No, I don't see any danger at all...however ,I do see your fear clearly, I find it irrational.

You haven't proved he lied about the corona virus. Could you give the information about Trump bullying people out of their homes?

Is Trump a citizen of Scotland? How can he bully people in Scotland concerning their land?

You are attacking me. You speak untruths about me being a fawning silly worshiper. I brought up Boris and Charles because it is strange you want to talk about the US President but not your own leaders.

I have been watching the same site, it brings a bit of clarity to the hysteria. Nobody wants to contract this China virus but, considering the numbers it is still pretty remote that I will considering my health condition & age, or that I would die from it if I did.

I may

No, you won't. You may as well be honest about it.

one might think that eider and artie would find those numbers comment-worthy, eh?

I don't follow. Is this some kind of sports competition?
By the time this is over (whenever that is), there will be a lot more dead everywhere, and it won't look like a football game to anybody anymore.

 

[ok doser]

I don't follow.

eider and artie and jgarden - a pair of brits and a canadian - have been vocal and persistent in their criticism of Trump, the leader of a nation other than their own - and curiously reluctant to discuss the failings of their own leadership - the above presents data that suggests an examination of what's different in the UK

as well, I posted this earlier: https://theologyonline.com/forum/pol...97#post2742497

but no, all we'll get from eider, artie and jgarden is a constant drumbeat of "orangemanbad"

 

[rocketman]

No, you won't. You may as well be honest about it.

Actually yes, I may, our Easter sunrise service is held outdoors, where we all watch the sunrise during it's progression....I'll post a pic. Do you live in fear?
