I will wait for Alex Jones to tell me what to think thank you very much!

Why is it so fucking hard for people to read articles and form your own opinion of what is going on?

Here is the facts:

1. China lied to the WHO and allowed a very contagious virus to get out of control and now the World is suffering from deaths and economic collapse...

2. Trump comments did not help at all but he has worked with Pelosi and Democrats to get shit done...

3. It does take time to setup testing sites with Local and State governments and failure will happen...

4. Listening to doped out has been actors about what you should do is like me being serious about listening to Alex Jones and neither a credible people to listen to!

Finally, if you believe the MSM or Talk Radio is not spinning this shit then Gawd Help You because all sides are annoying me and when a Troll like me is saying enough, it is enough!
