  1. Is this what you have in mind set up on Avenue of the Americas in NYC when the dust settles? I'm not saying I'd participate, but I'd understand ...
  2. Shit starting to get real in Florida today - 209 deaths so far today. That's 209 of 310 total, which seems suspicious. * DISREGARD - LOOKS TO BE BAD DATA ENTRY ON WORLDOMETERS. STATE WEBSITES ONLY SHOW 128.
  3. I love how it looks like he got charred from putting too much gas on the house before lighting it ...
  4. With the delays in test results and the super-high bars set in some states (like Texas) to ever get tested, the numbers of deaths (especially trends over a period of multiple days) may be the best indicator of coming hot spots. The problem is that deaths lag new infections by 2+ weeks, so you won't know whether social distancing efforts are having a real impact for some time, so it's possible that some hot spots may cool off if severe measures are taken before they flare up. I've been saying for some time that the next hot spots will probably be New Orleans, Detroit, Philadelphia, Miami, Chicago, Indianapolis and Atlanta. Boston should be added to that list. I'd consider Newark + CT to be part of the NY hot spot. With the patchwork of policies here in Texas, I could see Houston and DFW flaring up at some point, but there haven't been flashing red signs here in Texas just yet.
  5. I did - not much out there. When the main video touting his successes is a Q&A session with Rudy Giuliani, you end up fighting an uphill battle on credibility. Probably would have been more salable if they had gotten Igor Fruman to handle it.
  6. Bloomberg is going to be absolutely pounding Florida, Michigan and Pennsylvania with ads about Trump's and the R's handling of this fiasco in the fall, and it's going to leave a mark. Each of those states is going to end up getting hit pretty hard, and between Trump constantly fucking with Whitmer and having DeSantis drive this thing into the ditch without even applying the brakes, the ads will damn near write themselves.
  7. We're lucky to only have 1.4x as many cases as any other country. We're lucky that Trump has put us in this situation. WTF?
  8. Still wish Hillary would STFU. I'd totally be down if Obama did this, though.
  9. Bitch, please. I hated Massie since he pulled this shit: MFer graduated from MIT with an engineering degree, but that doesn't stop him from playing an imbecile with alarming regularity.
  10. This is a fair point. You can't overcome his pettiness and dumbfuckery without amending the DPA to require the appointment of a competent person by name or trying to make the "pandemic czar" a House-confirmed position (is that even feasible?). I mean, who in Trump's admin would you trust with this authority? It would have to be Fauci, right? Just another reason why we're fully fucked.
  11. Next state to watch is Pennsylvania. Their numbers have jumped up from ~1127 Wednesday evening to 2218 this afternoon, with the Philly area having about 1100 cases. I'm not sure if Governor Wolf (D) has historically had a good relationship with Trump, but it will be interesting to see if Wolf kisses the ring or decides to go the way of Governor Whitmer.
  12. It's astonishing to me that three of the absolute biggest cunts in Congress all came from Kentucky. Is there any doubt that, but for the necessity of their fine bourbons in this time of need, we would have either kicked them out of the Union or just nuked the damn state?
  13. President Quid Pro Quo strikes again. It's time for a fucking coup.
  14. Thanks for posting - agree on the zip code map. On the M/F infection rate, my understanding is that there typically isn't much of a difference - it's the death numbers that seem to be 2:1 M/F.
  15. Hands too big. Trump definitely doesn't have Uncle Sam size hands ...
  16. Jesus tapdancing christ. "Are stores going to waive that 30-day period where you can get your money back if you need to return something?" What a vapid cunt.
  17. SIAP but the following has some great charts showing how this thing is spreading: http://www.91-divoc.com/pages/covid-visualization/ * I found the charts with all of the states super-interesting. They really drive home the point that it's not just New York that is in trouble - they're just further along. States that don't take action immediately will end up in largely the same positions. It looks to me like New Jersey, Michigan, Louisiana, Illinois and Florida will be the next hot spots. * Note that the control panels below each chart allow you to highlight specific states and change between total cases / active cases / deaths.
  18. Hell no - the chant only works on the cult if the words are all the same.
  19. Jive, how da you know so much about Frisco? Sorry. Couldn't help myself ...
  20. Liz Cheney with a truth bomb in contravention to Trump policy (quoting Seth Gottlieb no less). I'm stunned.
  21. There is absolutely going to be a resurgence of Central American hordes in October, this time all coming with COVID-19, intent on infecting any Texans that survive Dotard and DP's initial purge. BE AFRAID!
