So how about all those corporations that need a $500B bailout after a couple weeks of reduced profits? How about the Mortage Lenders on the verge of bankruptcy due to margin calls on the Fed securities purchase? Maybe they should have skipped the avocado toast? Compared to corporations, the most reckless everyday american should be considered austere. I know several people who likely have COVID-19 who will never be counted among the numbers, because our government has refused to allow them to be tested.

Mass testing was the reason South Korea was able to stop this so effectively, despite the threat being much larger there and Seoul being a more populous and dense city than NYC.

The cool thing is that you don't even need to "think" anything. It's not something you can have an opinion about - the facts as laid out are facts. If you have alternative evidence to claim the facts are a lie or disingenuous for some reason, I would love to hear them. The fact that you think I'm a democrat is adorable.

Are you ok?

Because I'm socially distancing. Good luck. What facts do you have to discount the list I posted? None? Cool.

I hope I didn't keep you up all night thinking of that sweet nickname.

Exactly what I said. Had they not dismantled the pandemic team, had they acted sooner, had they ramped up testing the way China and South Korea did, had they resupplied the protective gear needed, had Trump used an ounce of restraint in his tweets/helicopter speeches, etc - they would have had a much better shot at containing this early, would likely have had less volatility in the market, could have reduced the massive collateral damage to places like NYC, and possibly could have avoided or reduced the need for a nationwide spread and subsequent shutdown. It was a complete bungling. I honestly cant imagine anyone handling it worse. I think no president at all would have been better. Hundreds of thousands of Americans are going to die, and this thread is still full of people butthurt about 4 guys that died in Benghazi

aww, poor little baby had some mean ol' facts ruin his big bad opinions. Baby gettin' cranky. maybe time for a nap.

That truly is a compliment of a lifetime coming from you. Do us a favor and pack that church on Easter, would ya?

The Trump Virus could have been drastically mitigated if he listened to the people who were experts on the situation, if he shut his fat mouth, and if he didn't wait until the absolute last minute to act. Of course if he did any of those things, he wouldn't be the incompetent bumbling idiot we all know. He knew about this in January and did nothing. He's still mostly doing nothing.

Which metric would you prefer? I don't even particularly care for Obama's centrist tendencies, though it's hard to deny he transformed the economy unless you're blind to the facts. The economy gained a net 11.6 million jobs. The unemployment rate dropped to below the historical norm. Average weekly earnings for all workers were up 4.0 percent after inflation. The gain was 3.7 percent for just production and nonsupervisory employees. After-tax corporate profits also set records, as did stock prices. The S&P 500 index rose 166 percent. The number of people lacking health insurance dropped by 15 million. Premiums rose, but more slowly than before. If you weren't making bank in 2016, you were actively trying not to.

what? He inherited the longest bull run in history.

When you're the worst president in US history, the good thing is you don't have a comparable floor. He walked in with a booming economy and burned the whole thing to the ground, just like every other republican in my lifetime.

This whole thread is aging about as gracefully as Drumpfs comb-over. The fact that there are still people supporting that traitorous ass-clown in here should be a little more surprising than it actually is. We really don't deserve to make it out of this thing as a species.

Anything to try to deflect an ounce of accountability. I guess after 4 years of the same show, I get bored.

When you cite the blaze, it removes all need to have further discussion. Why does anyone like to get information from such overtly biased sensational sources?

Pretty big overpay for a guy that should be a solid backup.

His knee was a career ending injury, he just hasn't admitted it yet. He went from the most dominating back in the league to an incredibly pedestrian, dime a dozen backup overnight. Give me an undrafted FA instead It's really sad, but at least he got paid.

I like lawson, but he;s a 3rd/4th de on a decent team. Not paying a penny over 5.5M/year. He's completely replaceable. Couldn't even take Murphy's job.

it's just as obvious now as it was then.

Mario Addison is the obligatory add here.

Like I said, dealer's choice.

Nope, I said Peterman outplayed Allen in pre-season - which he did. You're one of the many kids around here that has trouble with reading comprehension. Sorry, I can't fix that for you. I'll let you pick the stat to show Allen was the better QB yesterday.

This is completely opposed to what actually happened. Allen had all day to throw. The line was borderline elite with how much time they gave him on all but a couple of plays. Maybe it looks like it because he holds the ball longer than any QB in the league. That's the privilege you get when a line gives you time.

Agreed.
