Lol

I read a detailed piece on his support among various groups in various areas, and trends. He is NOT popular with the brothers lol. I'm convinced that he is quite (frank)ed at this point.

I just saw this in passing but I think he had some shocking number like 61% approval for handling the virus. (frank) I hope that’s wrong.

Fear reaction, that won't last long. His underlying fundamentals are not good. His core are zombies so they won't flip, but outside of his cult he's done.

Leafs have won more than twice as many cups as the Hawks. Even the cheating sh!t with the Hossa jock itch couldn't save them from finishing last in the Central this year.

So Kiss our banana!

They’re going to open up county by county, state by state. I think they’re looking at polls to decide how to do. My guess is that he has even more to lose if he loses the election and statute of limitations doesn’t run out. A bunch of prosecutors have to be sitting on a lot of bad Donnie stuff. He can not afford to lose this election.

Kind of like Putin and all the money he's siphoned off. That's why he keeps extending his reign. Once that is over... he's no longer untouchable and could be in trouble.

I know this Russian ex pat, she'd torture Putin to death if she could.

Only way Putin gets removed will have to be similar to what happened to this former Soviet leader in Mexico.

I have this horrific feeling that Trump might not care if the virus wipes out California and New York because they're Democratic bastions and it helps his re-election prospects.

And they don't say nice things about him.

In meetings people have learned to say Mr. President, we're so grateful for your wise, decisive action or whatever before they start, that it might please the boy king.

Ok Max, I’d love to see this stuff widely available and helping and if I thought a go fund me project would fill some important hole I’d definitely participate. Big questions though about scope and how such a project would fit with governments. Also would want to understand the proprietary issues of who stands to gain. Is this funding that would result in a gain for a corporation not pulling its wait. I’m sure there’d be a lot of other questions that would need to be sorted out. That’s why these kinds of projects fit more easily with “let’s go buy so many Xs for someone in need”. Simple and clean.

Yes I see, it's important to be very clear about all of this.
(BCG vaccine is 100years old next year, most used vaccine in the world (I think 100mln doses a year in newborns), approx 10-20cents a dose and people that would benefit is basically Health Care Workers and elderly - assuming the additional protection against disease would indeed be provided.
There is no 'double agenda' here..

I assume you didn't read the article or didn't understand my question.
the crowdfundign would be for the trial to test the BCG vaccine.
(same as the Montreal researchers to test Colchicine - apart from the fact that a vaccine would prevent instead of drugs treating people already being ill).
in any case, thanks for the feedback - it helps understanding how people react on this ..

As of yesterday disaster relief money hadn’t moved to NY or California. He also said in a Fox interview that he told Governors that they have to treat us well if they want coronavirus money.

Do you remember Schiff during impeachment that he could see the day during a disaster where he’d say to a Governor “but I’d like you to do us a favour though”

I’m not saying there is or there isn’t just that the supporting materials would need to be very clear, probably much more so than a normal go fund me.

Is that because this is a vaccine?

Grocery store observation this week for me at work. Even though 8-9 in our store is for seniors only, they still come all day anyway. I'd say half the daily sales is from seniors. Most of our locals still come shopping every day, which I find weird since your exposing your self 7 times more then just shopping once a week. I also havnt seen a child in the store in over a week, and its mostly husbands instead of the wives doing the shopping now.
Here's also a strange thing, we have at least 5 people in there 60's that work there and all have being given the option to stay home and isolate. All have turned it down and are still working and this is knowing they will make less then what the government will pay out. Weird or is it just me....

- Buck Norris

It’s not just you, it’s weird. If it was me I’d be gone so fast my silhouette would still be there. But then again I’ve never been a big fan of working anyway, it gets in the way of living.

Also because it’s supporting a trial for a vaccine that governments are already studying. People would need to know what hole this initiative was filling, how quickly it would roll out, would it help this surge, who does gain financially, etc.
