    Honesty is such a funny thing to bring up when you support Trump.

    You could cut thru the irony with a butter knife

    Maybe if Trump wouldn't have lied about COVID and told people to go out so they could get infected we wouldn't have been hit so hard and wouldn't have had to shut down?

    Jeeze... I guess it was his fucking fault.

    Caroline Giuliani endorsed Harris. She said following Trump caused her father to crash and burn and pleaded with him to leave Trump orbit and work to restore his life and reputation. Unlikely to happen. It's true Trump drags everyone down but Rudy is a grown ass man, he is responsible for his actions.

    There is so much wrong with what you said, I'm not going to spend 12 hours correcting it, but for one, the most strict lockdowns were early as soon as the pandemic was declared. They were almost universal, but "red" states opened up sooner while blue states tended to keep them going longer. They were cheerleading the lockdowns which caused the unemployment.

    States controlled lockdowns, not Trump.

    Yeah pretty much none of that has anything to do with what I said. Nice try though.

    Trump fucked up and got a bunch of people killed with COVID.

    The states only recourse was to lock down. The states that lock down more had 30% fewer deaths.

    It's not like Trump left them with a choice once he said that it's all over we don't need to do anything further we've got it contained.

    You may not understand what it has to do with what you said, but that's not surprising.

    John Hopkins actually did a big study on lockdown measures and found they had no benefit.

    But we were originally talking about jobs. The job loss came from the lockdowns that Dems cheerlead, blaming it on Trump is absurd.

    Ana has woken up, why won't you? You're in the party of Dick Cheany now, and you don't even blink. All you know is "orange man bad".

    The job losses came from the shutdowns that Trump forced by being a corrupt idiot.

    No, there is not a study that showed the lockdowns had no impact. The studies showed that the states with the most strict policies saw on average 30% lower death rates.

    So once again, Trump's idiotic and selfish policies are what caused the spikes and joblessness.
