Many people are realizing that we are all going to have to learn to live with Covid -19 as it is unrealistic to think it can be fully eradicated.

I know several people who have lived through the virus without issues.

But it's the truth. COVID is just one of those splinters that sticks in one's arse as one slides down the bannister of life. And nothing has changed the WHO's survival rate of 86%.

We both survived the first infection. No guarantees we will survive the next.

Worried ? About catching it, no. About some government's ill-thought out response to it, yes.

Next Spanish lockdown starts 15th September, latest rumour.

You'll be OK, Seen, as long as your stocks and shares are ok.

Get yerself some physical gold, man!

It's one form of hard money which the kleptocracy of Chump and his bankster buddies can't easily mess with. Store it outside the US though. Remember what happened in the last Depression? Uncle Sam pinched it all at a fake price and it is supposedly in the Knox vault which hasn't been independently audited since the 1950s. I suspect that place is just one great big echochamber nowadays.

Don't touch paper gold (ETFs such as GLD & such) though. It's the biggest Ponzi scheme still going.

I see that Chump is up to his old 'birther' ***** again. L-)

Claiming that Kamala's citizenship is in doubt as her parents were on student visas at the time of her birth. The garbage trope tries to claim that she's therefore not subject to US jurisdiction. Complete shite, of course, as you would expect from that twerp.

He really is behaving like a very desperate loser.

It's so funny that anyone thinks that a United States Senator, born legitimately in the US, does not come under US jurisdiction.

What a complete wanker! (Him, not her)

Does he ever come out with that birther ***** about any white person.

He really is an out and out racist. I remember in the 1980s when I lived in New York he took out a full page ad in the NYT exorting the authorities to execute some black prisoners who been accused of a dreadful rape/murder in Central Park. Even after they were completely exonerated, he continued to call for them to be put to death. Did he ever do that for white folk? I don't think so.

He's an obvious mysogenist and racist. He doesn't stand a chance in a fair fight against Kamala Harris.

I think it is time to try and establish which planet the Chump came from?

I'd also like to know what species of alien furry crittter it is that sits so uncomfortably on the top of his head.

Until it was explained to me what a Kardashian is, I thought it might be such a critter, a rodent, perhaps from the Asian steppes.

What makes you think that planet wants to be named and shamed?

Not addressed to anybody in particular, but,
Must be a very disturbed, not vcry productive use of time, when all you can do is be a keyboard warrior pouring bile over someone, who, whether you like it or not, has at least achieved the office of President of the United States, is the Commander in Chief of the armed forces, and most unusually for someone holding that office, has not started a war, and is actively trying to bring U.S. troops home from many overseas bases.

I'll bite, Prospector.
Unfortunately, thanks to covid lockdown, I've got plenty of time.
I will grant you where he is and what he can do, not that I like it. That he has not started a war is a problem. He has proclaimed himself a wartime president in the war on covid. The fact is that he has done practically nothing positive and a whole lot that has negatively impacted the collective response to the pandemic. By ignoring the advice of experts and spewing total ***** had probably killed more people than any shooting war he could have gotten us into. On second thought, since he says he knows more than his generals, I may be wrong on that count.
We won't even get into any of the literally thousands of lies and other ***** statements that he routinely pulls out of his ass.
His current campaign to undermine the upcoming election is also disturbing, not to mention his racist rants and uncalled attacks on his opponents.
Yes, I am very disturbed, and rightfully so.
If this was going on in your country, I hope you would be too.
