Merry Christmas season PPPers. I look forward to a time when the scenes shown here are again the norm, and we remember the lesson in the words.

That is a massive re-write on the history of this thread. Look back in the summer and it's post after post by people--including me--saying that we thought there'd be no second wave. That we were bottoming out and the winter would at best see a light rise (to the mockery of many). Magox quoting Alex Berenson every other day. No, Fauci and many others predicted things would get a lot worse. Many of us, including our president "it's going to go away" were very wrong. Let's not pretend that "everyone" predicted this. Most on the right did not. Infectious disease experts, as reported by the media, did.

Trump wasn’t holding U40 events, but keep playing dumb.

Here was the question: Do you think we should minimize the virus and encourage big events?

To top it all off, Wood added a doctored image of the Georgia state officials donning masks with the Chinese flag printed on them, writing that Trump is “a genuinely good man” who “dislikes putting people in jail, especially ‘Republicans.'” Trump, apparently not turned off by the egregious claim, retweeted the post — shocking pundits on both sides of the political aisle: You'll see no criticism here from those of The Departed who occasionally still frequent this board.

Do you think we should minimize the virus and encourage big events? My friend Lehnard won't answer simple questions like this: How about you?

Absolutely so did I. Even more so than the one earlier this year that I also thought was good. They didn't review it and Trico was quick to say the ref looked at it from the best angle but I don't know. I'd like to see a better angle.

Don't you think that a reporter would love to break this story open if there's a good story to be had? If there's a story--a legitimate one--it will come out. Based on little other than what I've seen, Cuomo is not a guy without plenty of enemies who would love this story to take him down if it's got legs.

Is it a story like "the Steele Dossier is a fraud on which to overthrow a president" or a story like "the election was a fraud on which to overthrow a democratic election?"

Plenty of Democrats have been taken out by accusations of harassment. If there’s a story here, we will know about it.

Yup. If the standard is that every accuser gets their day, let's hear from her. To the poster who said, "if you're harassed, just quit" as if that's the only response there should be for sexual harassment, I hope the women you know are more empowered than that.

You sound just like the Q-army. You get that right? On January 21, Biden will be president. Trump's supporters are the ones I worry about since many of them do not accept democracy any more.

Funny thing: The person who recommended it is my friend from Sweden. He messaged me telling me that his family was enjoying it and assumed I knew all about it. It's a story I was too young to remember. When I told my mom about it, she said, "I lived that miniseries. F*** Phyllis Shaffley." Hahaha. Will check it out.

If someone uses a prefix in a setting, it should be the right one. But people who run around insisting on “doctor” are obnoxious. Mostly a thing of the past.
