We the People

The truth comes out.  The democrats used the disease like winning the lottery. Not only do they gain advantage from it, they use it to destroy the Trump economy and to act like little dictators in states and cities they control.  This article is so right on.  The Chinese Communist government and democrats are the beneficiaries of covid.  They’ve benefited from it so much that they don’t want to let it go because they are afraid of losing power when it is over.  


S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



The COVID pandemic has been a gift from the heavens for Democrats in their ruthless pursuit of total political power and now that idea can no longer be simply dismissed as a conspiracy theory.

In an astounding admission, a top aide of Joe Biden let the cat out of the bag that “Covid is the best thing that ever happened to him” because it covered up his failures, according to a newly released book on the 2020 campaign.

The remarkable comment was attributed to Anita Dunn, a former acting White House Communications Director under Barack Obama as well as a longtime Democrat operative who was hailed by the liberal elitist Atlantic magazine as “The Mastermind Behind Biden’s No-Drama Approach to Trump,” in a post-election article.

Dunn’s revealing remarks are included in the book Lucky: How Joe Biden Barely Won the Presidency by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes that provides some of the first insights from within the belly of the beast that was the Biden campaign.

According to the authors, Dunn’s comments were made to an “associate” and that it was something that “campaign officials believed but would never say in public.”

Via The Hill, “‘Lucky’: Adviser described COVID-19 as ‘best thing that ever happened to’ Biden”:

The Joe Biden presidential campaign was confident the politics surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic would help the Democratic candidate in the presidential race, according to “Lucky,” a new book released Tuesday.

“COVID is the best thing that ever happened to him,” senior Biden adviser Anita Dunn told another campaign associate in late March 2020 after then-President Trump had announced initial stay-at-home guidelines for the nation.

The quotation comes at the end of a chapter titled “It’s all turning” that focused on how the pandemic, and the Trump administration’s response to it, ended up helping Biden in the presidential race.

Before the pandemic hit, polls showed a tight race between Trump and Biden, who in March was just becoming the Democratic front-runner.

Biden’s campaign found the politics of the pandemic advantageous, given that Biden could be critical of Trump but would not actually have to make decisions himself on how to handle the coronavirus…

The remarks by Dunn should raise eyebrows as well as questions on to what extent that Democrats and their media allies deliberately added to the hysteria over COVID, leading to a state of fear that was used to push for the lockdowns that would derail the thriving economy under former President Donald J. Trump.

It was slightly less than a year ago when Democrats appeared to be destined for a crushing defeat with Trump on course to easily win a second term until last March when the cancellation of the NCAA Final Four men’s basketball tournament set a chain of events into motion that led to the shutdown of all sports along with religious services, schools, and dining establishments.

The media immediately sought to blame the disruptions on Trump and Biden and the Democrats further weaponized COVID using the fear to put into place a national push for vote-by-mail that would eventually be a key factor in Biden “winning” the election.

And it allowed for Biden whose campaign trail appearances were increasingly marked by erratic and often belligerent behavior, much of it directed toward voters, to be kept safely locked down in his Delaware mansion until the weeks before the election.

Anita Dunn deserves some praise for her honestly that COVID was like winning the lottery jackpot for Biden.

The pandemic was and is a crisis but certainly it helped Biden.   This is obvious.  Just like the 2008 financial meltdown helped Obama (any D) win.   

The pandemic caused the economy to take a hit and (worse) caused the electorate to be discontent.   Typically a discontent electorate will blame the current PotUS and thus Trump's second hit.

But Trump then sealed the deal with his talking down the pandemic in a failed (and stupid) attempt to keep the stock market (and the economy) strong by the power of his bullshit alone.   Instead of trying to give false assurances he should have been all over the pandemic encouraging all Americans to take COVID-19 seriously, to cooperate with local restrictions, to make/buy and wear masks and to social distance.   And don't claim he was all over the pandemic and was not talking it down because we have him on video talking down the pandemic.   There is no hiding from this truth.

If Trump had focused on doing the right thing as PotUS instead of trying to bullshit through this, he might have won.   His narcissism (and disregard for the American people) enabled Biden's win.   Trump has only himself to blame.

This all day long.  He gave so many excuses and bullshit answers even though in private he knew how serious this pandemic was...what was his excuse...oh I didn't want people to panic...well the dumbfuck is responsible for how many American deaths.

The MAGAs need excuses, deflections and false conclusions to obscure the fact that voter suppression, foreign interference and hoards of dark money was almost but not quite enough to pull of the inside straight flush two times in a row.

As far as the COVID------"In April it'll disappear like a miracle," DJT.

We won’t obey Biden!  We double dog dare him to even try to compel another lockdown and watch us openly defy him to his face.  We won’t do another lockdown.  Period.  

Petulance.

There is an old Mandarin Quatrain that states 'the soul who defies the logic of not placing his pecker into a Chinese Pecker Puzzle will end up in a pickle of pecker proportions'.

Thusly, the 'Double Dog Dare' is akin to dining on peas with a butter knife.

"So Biden says that if we're good little boys and girls, we can get together in small groups by July 4," conservative commentator Ben Shapiro tweeted, while pointing to the CDC recommendations. "In other words, he's promising something by JULY that we're already doing today...

How does that relate to my observation of a petulant response to an estimate made by Biden?

Part of the reason our political environment is so divisive nowadays is because people exaggerate and spin (lie) about what others say and then millions of people (without thinking) just run with the spin.

It is stupid to simply accept what others proclaim.

And that is good.   People should be skeptical at whatever a politician says.   

The worst way to operate is to serve as a sycophant for a politician and hold everything claimed by said politician as the truth.

That would be a pathetic state of affairs for the R party.   It is a shame that one man can do this much harm to a political party and to the nation.   Of course he would not be able to do anything if his sycophants would get a clue.

Not only that, he became so fixated on that and that alone, he did nothing to get the ball rolling on getting the vaccine out. 2 wasted months listening to him moan.

That's crazy. 

The US was administering about a million vaccines a day when Biden was sworn in. You know, when, Biden made his "ambitious" promise to perform 100 million vaccines in 100 days. 

The idea that Trump somehow slowed down vaccine production is pure fantasy.

I was not speaking of Trump’s policies.   Anyone could adopt his policies; he is unnecessary.  Find a decent human being who has similar policies ...  the policies are, after all, consistent with R thinking.

I was speaking of the idea of voting into office a proven malignant narcissist and pathological liar who has demonstrated to the entire planet that he will lie and cheat anyone and everyone to get what he personally desires.   He is a manipulative con-man who has so ensnared his sycophants that they actually believe he won in 2020.   He perpetrated a historic display of a poor loser and for two months tried to steal the election and raise the divisiveness of the nation.  

Yet these sycophants cannot recognize this lying asshole;  nothing ever registers in their confirmation-bias-sealed frightened minds.

I have stated facts that any rational person can observe by watching Trump speak and act.    

What is fascinating is how gullible individuals can ignore these facts and sycophantically cling to Trump’s words as truth.

I care about the fact Biden lies all the time but could care less about the lemmings who believe him.  

Trump told just shy of 30,000 lies while in office and I don't recall you complaining about that even once. 

You do realize that trump lied over 85% of the time, right? When it comes to lying, no one even comes close to trump, he is in a class all his own.

The reason being that he assumed that if he just ignored and downplayed covid, it wouldn't hurt him at the polls. Unfortunately it cost a LOT of lives and screwed trump. Of course, trump just blamed everyone but himself.

It is not a personal opinion that Trump is a proven malignant narcissist and pathological liar who has demonstrated to the entire planet that he will lie and cheat anyone and everyone to get what he personally desires.   It is not a personal opinion that he is a manipulative con-man who has so ensnared his sycophants that they actually believe he won in 2020.   It is not a personal opinion that Trump perpetrated a historic display of a poor loser and for two months tried to steal the election and raise the divisiveness of the nation.  

Shows how some block out facts that go against their beliefs.   Things like believing Biden 'stole' the election and that Trump actually cares about his supporters.

The statement that "Biden lies all the time" is not true, and if known to be false and yet stated, it is a lie.  If stated without knowledge, even though it is false, then it is basically delusional.

TiG stated objectively provable facts.  Some people, sometimes Trump supporters, subscribe to "alternative facts", which are, of course, not facts.  Failure to accept objectively provable facts, and the acceptance and promotion of "alternative facts", if knowingly committed, is a clear moral failure.
