Trump right again... We destroyed our economy for virtually nothing...

Eventually

No it was back at the beginning but you are too busy being a partisan asshole.

Unemployment is still higher than under Trump before China unleashed the Fauci Flu. There were also millions more Americans working then.

GDP growth the last two quarters under Trump avg over 17%. Veggie Joe came in and fucked it all up.

The labor participation rate is also still well below the peak of February 2020.

So Trump dismantle the pandemic response team

Get new lies. That one was debunked years ago.

Fact check: White House didn't fire pandemic response unit when it was disbanded in 2018

Posts claim President Donald Trump fired the "entire" pandemic response team in 2018. When the unit was disbanded, personnel were moved or resigned.

www.usatoday.com

The CDC offered to send experts to China in early 2020 and the Chinese refused.

​

For more than a month, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been offering to send a team of experts to China to observe its coronavirus outbreak and help if it can.​

​

Normally, teams from the agency’s Epidemic Intelligence Service can be in the air within 24 hours.​

​

But no invitation has come — and no one can publicly explain why.​

Privately, Chinese doctors say they need outside expertise. But Beijing, without saying why, has shown no interest so far.

Probably because we had the biggest recession since 1929.....like the rest, under Republican rule. Large tax cuts predominantly for the rich have been the key feature of recessions in modern times. REPOS.

OPECkers cripple our economy and have since the 1973 Embargo. But American oil companies collaborate with the jihadis and protect them. The jihadi gougers marked up crude oil's price to $147 a barrel in July, 2008. That was the root cause of the economic collapse. But banks have a reputation of being a Jewish cabal, so that was a convenient scapegoat for the Nazislamis and their hush-moneyed pundits.

An embargo is an act of war. President Nixon wanted to seize the Arab oilfields, but Big Oil talked him out of it. The Seven Sisters created OPEC in order to gouge America and have the Arabs to use as their willing scapegoats.

LOLOL

Your own link says he disbanded the pandemic response unit. It says members of the unit either resigned or were reassigned to other roles. All that article deemed as false was the claim that Trump "fired the entire unit"; and he didn't fire them. But he did dismantle the unit.

So the other poster who said Trump dismantled the pandemic response unit was correct and as always, you demonstrate you're just another idiot who doesn't know what he's talking about.

Poor Fawnboi, you tried to sell the lie that the pandemic team was trashed by Trump, when in fact they were just combined with another outfit.

They were still there doing the same job, just in another department.

You lose again, loser.

So? That's only because Trump handed Biden a LFPR well below the rate Obama handed Trump. And Trump had 3 years compared to Biden's one.

It took Trump 3 years to take the LFPR from 62.8 to 63.4, an increase of 0.6. It took Biden 1 year to take the LFPR from 61.4 to 62.2, an increase of 0.8.

Annualized, that's...

Trump ... 0.19
Biden ..... 0.80​

Let’s get the history of our dependence on Middle East oil. First, we literally drained reserves from portions of Texas during ww2 where the US was supplying practically ALL of the oil for the entire allied war effort. Much of the effort went into keep Middle East oil out Germany’s hands and allowing the Middle East countries to remain sovereign instead of having a fascist German presence. So, that is the genesis of our cozy relationship with. Middle East countries.

Because of the sacrifices the US made for the world and the Middle East, to this day, the world is much more dependent on Middle East oil then it would have otherwise.

Yet still, we are the worlds largest producer.
“The US is by far and away the world's largest oil producer (over 180 million MT in 1940), followed by the Venezuela and the Soviet Union (30 and 27 million MT respectively”

So yes, the world needs to be dependent on oil from the Middle East as well. It’s a historical necessity. Get use to it till alternate sources can replace it.

No they weren’t. They were now under the NSC and lost their autonomy and quick response ability. the staff shrank and their presence in other countries diminished. It’s like combining the post office with another cabinet position and losing half of its effectiveness . .

Her is what my link said, Dipshit.

Tim Morrison, a former senior director for counterproliferation and biodefense on the NSC, wrote in an op-ed for The Washington Post that he "inherited a strong and skilled staff in the counterproliferation and biodefense directorate" when he joined in July 2018.

"This team of national experts together drafted the National Biodefense Strategy of 2018 and an accompanying national security presidential memorandum to implement it; an executive order to modernize influenza vaccines; and coordinated the United States’ response to the Ebola epidemic in Congo, which was ultimately defeated in 2020," he wrote.

He also said that the reorganization of the NSC was necessary after the "bloat that occurred" under Obama, when the staff quadrupled to nearly 400 – a figure that even members of the Obama administration agreed was too large.

"Claims that streamlining NSC structures impaired our nation's bio defense are false," he wrote on March 13. "Global health remained a top NSC priority, and its expert team was critical to effectively handling the 2018-19 Africa Ebola crisis."

Why'd you stop reading there, Dumbfuck??

Though the unit was disbanded, not all members of the team left. Some moved to other units in the NSC, like those focused on weapons of mass destruction and international organizations, per The Washington Post.​

Which is what I said. The pandemic response unit was disbanded and its members either resigned or were moved to other jobs. WMD is not fighting a pandemic. International organizations doesn't help us here. It helped other nations like the one they specified, fighting Ebola in Congo.

Don't you ever tire of being *****-slapped by everyone on this forum?

Ever???

Holyfuckingshit!

Dumbfuck is doubling down on getting *****-slapped.

Dumbfuck, can't you understand English?? It appears not. I just pointed out members of the disbanded pandemic response unit either resigned, went to defend against WMD or went to do work internationally.... You're such a ******* retard, you just repeated what I said but didn't realize it.

Imbecile, Tim Morrison became the head of the counterproliferation and biodefense team.

That's not fighting pandemics, it's fighting chemical weapons.

His new team from former members of the disbanded pandemic response unit drafted the National Biodefense Strategy of 2018.

That's not fighting pandemics, it's fighting chemical weapons.

My G-d, you're a flaming idiot. You're literally corroborating my argument but your too stupid to realize it.

You're like a piñata that never breaks; it just keeps getting the shit beat out of it, over and over and over again.

What bullshit. Just another Trump Lackey. Tim Morrison was a political advisor with a degree in Politics, not medical, not national security..politics. Like the rest of Trumps Cabinet they were out to cut anything they didn’t understand .....which is pretty much anything with three or more syllables.

. He just admitted they cut the staff for the pandemic response team. Claiming that an organization is bloated is just a BS way conservatives have getting rid of things they don’t even understand.

When the left and the media were demanding lockdowns,. and President Trump and many Republican governor's were being pummeled in articles and TV news for not embracing lockdowns and keeping their state's open... science has proven they were right...

Lockdowns only reduced COVID-19 death rate by .2%, study finds: 'Lockdowns should be rejected out of hand'

Lockdowns during the first COVID-19 wave in the spring of 2020 only reduced COVID-19 mortality by .2% in the U.S. and Europe, according to a Johns Hopkins University meta-analysis of several studies.

And here are the receipts ... March 2020...

Trump says nationwide lockdown would 'ultimately inflict more harm than it would prevent'

While Trump said he wouldn't shut down the U.S., he urged Americans to stay "vigilant" against the coronavirus as U.S. officials begin to see new "flare-ups."

Thank God my Governor had a backbone and held out as long as possible under the assault from democrats especially in the media.

"Some states are still refusing to order lockdowns Missouri Gov. Mike Parson said he will not issue a statewide shutdown, insisting it is down to 'individual responsibility' Medical experts sent him..."

265 MILLION ordered to stay home in US but some states STILL refuse

A total of 32 states have all gone into lockdown, with Arizona and Tennessee becoming the latest to join Tuesday. But some states are still refusing to order lockdowns.

You need to consult your doctor and see what they say and why.

This morning I didn’t take my blood pressure or cholesterol medicine. I sent the pills to a lab and paid another scientist to tell me what’s really in those pills. But how do I know that scientist isn’t in on it? So I got a second opinion. Just want to be sure the medical community isn’t putting magnets in me.

 

[sealybobo]

Excellent reason to contaminate others, not.

I thought vaccinated people can also contaminate and spread the virus?

1. I should get the booster so I don’t die.

2. I should get the booster so I don’t have to go to the ER when I get COVID.

What other reasons besides those two?

As a vaccinated person I can still go to Kroger’s and get it and take it home right?

 

[sealybobo]

If the vax and masks work, how would you get "contaminated"?

Read what I wrote. Masks do work. Some better than others but it’s like saying you don’t cover your mouth when you sneeze because it doesn’t work. Stop it.

I listed two reasons to get vaccinated. Increase my chances of survival if I get it and so I don’t have to go to the hospital if I get sick.

I do believe there are other reasons I just want to hear them. Like you I say vaccinated can spread it too.

But I think if more were vaccinated it would help stop the spread. And unvaccinated are responsible for the delta.
