I read part of a Washington Post article today on two studies that found that the COVID infections and deaths were higher in more conservative areas and also working-class people die younger in conservative states. Conservative states don't have laws and programs that support better living and health.

I could never figure out why conservative politicians and trump when he was president during the height of the pandemic but we know why with him, would not do everything they could to save the lives of their supporters. If not for the altruistic reason of caring about your fellow human beings then at the very least because you’re losing the very people who actually vote for your unmoved uncaring “show me the money, lobbyists “ selves.
Very short sighted of them.

Also, the original vaccine was developed under Trump's administration. It's all so confusing.
I've seen him booed at his rallies when he advocated vaccinating. Probably stopped doing that a while ago.

Headline for an "art" article in the Washington Post:
Trump NFTs are not art. Unless you consider grifting an art form.

If they don't want to get the vaccine that's fine with me. Fine and dandy. I wonder if they wear seat belts, or are seat belts just another, "too much government interference" thing?

He's such a two faced phony. I don't trust him. I know politicians aren't perfect, but this guy is as fake as a 3 dollar bill. I can't believe any rational person would vote for such a liar. Then again, people voted for trump and will probably do it again if he's not behind bars. So, what do I know? What do they know?
He's what I call an "I will say what you want to hear if you vote for me" person. Such a despicable human being.

Yes this ias true. I might say that the republicans who catered to say don't take vaccines could be sued for sort of advocation deaths instead of living by vaccines and boosted and masks. I think all sorts of vaccines like polio etc. and flue are now happening also differently because of cynical Republicans using people to die rather that stand up and advocate truths and true science.

I read a report that Trump's trading cards used copyrighted images without permission.

Another thing I read that I agree with is: if Trump had not contested the election, accepted the loss gracefully not doing things like taking classified documents, he would be a shoo-in for 2024.

Thank goodness trump is a liar and a crook and it's out there for the whole to world see.
I'm surprised his loyal base hasn't come to his defense blabbing on about how it's not true, they are picking on him, it's all made up to make him look bad, and on and on and on.
Sometimes I think trump is nothing more than a distraction. While other important things are going on in the world we stay focused on a lying, cheating and deceitful man. Could Rome be burning while we focus on this thing?

MTG and Bobert are having an online spat. Can you imagine if she calls in the gazpacho police? hahah best thing I read all morning! yahoo article I saw that. Way to do their part to make the GOP look even sillier. (On an annoying sidenote, many of the dunderheads on Yahoo comments (I know, it's always a mistake to read them) are laughing, pointing fingers and calling it a "cat fight", harshing my enjoyment of the situation.)

So when men disagree in public is it a dog fight? A bull fight? A c*ock fight? I don't think so. It would be considered a heated political debate.
Sexism is alive and well. I don't believe women and men will ever be looked at as politically equal. Extremely insulting, immature, stupid, and rude.
I'm fine with it though. Because I don't think we are equal. Years ago I saw a TV special where a man was hooked up to a machine that caused him to feel the pain women feel when giving birth. The guy ripped off the plugs or whatever they were that was causing the pain, and leaped off the table. Too painful for him. Aww. Poor guy.

Interesting that they're releasing Trumps taxes. The Chrisleys (?) just got 19 years in prison for conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, wire fraud, and conspiracy to commit tax evasion. With any luck, Donny boy may be joining them. Or is that just wishful thinking that anything criminal might come of the info?
