and think science is nerdy and dorky. They couldn’t understand a Science Fair project. Dr. Bright can’t dumb it down enough for these yahoos.

Nearly apocalyptic in scale, and everyone is taking a side.

It's tragic, but also sublime.

Senator, are you for truth and integrity and filled with compassion, or are you with Trump?

And attack those that do, for trump. Who do I trust , Dr Bright or donald the moron trump. That's laughable. This is not a hoax, and Dr Bright IS credible, and trump is a fool trying to con people now into accepting 84,000 deaths is acceptable and a success. The other day he was trying to normalize children dying now from the virus.

No product has never gotten so much free PR as the regressive party is spewing for hydroxy... to support the batshit crazy orange head of their fascist movement.

Talking points or walking papers.

I wonder will they all get a nice ‘gift’ bag after the seminar?

They know that if they listened, they might have their Trump-worship challenged.

I really think the only way Trumpers can survive is to refuse to hear anything. Ask them about his tweets accusing reporters of all sorts of things (including recently murder), or insulting military members, or threatening to jail opponents... and they say, defensively, "I never saw that." Ask them about some unhinged rant about, you know, toilets, and they'll say, "I never heard that."

So I say, "Well, here's a link-- see and hear." And they refuse. It's just fake news or they're too busy or "I wish he wouldn't tweet."

Only be refusing to see or hear him can they continue approving of him.

And the GOP senators and reps are exactly the same.

Even Liz Cheney will tweet in support of Fauci's integrity, but never say anything against Trump.
