Dang, I have to quit this shitfest, so I am out.

That still doesn't prove his narrative. Entry errors are admitted to all the time and corrected. This is why audits are preformed. Are you telling me that there is a giant conspiracy which encompasses hundred if not thousands of people throughout the US and they are so good at it that no one can catch them with enough evidence to prove it?
GRIZ PHAN said:I have no idea where Cue and Spanky2 caught the conspiracy viruses. One symptom is making angry, nonsensical posts on the internet, as evidenced by their posts on this thread. I hope for their speedy recovery, but I have my doubts. It seems quite likely that their symptoms will only increase over the next two to four years. Sad.
Spanky2, you may want to check out how the Trump team is doing in the courts. Losers, big time.

In an attempt to address cuerohola statement about covid deaths, I will attempt to get this back to the original topic.
I don't necessarily believe that all death's are covid related, but I do believe the vast majority are. Hospitals don't get paid by deaths. They get paid for treatment and there is increased funding for covid treatments. As someone who works in the medical field and run my own practice, I find it unlikely that people are diagnosed with covid without a test to show that they actually have it. The risk of even being accused of fraud and the potential consequences are too great. At least in my practice they are. Also, the reimbursement you get for ICU and advanced cares including ventilators may seem like a lot initially, but once you add in the costs, especially if someone requires months of ICU, you start losing money per diagnosis. In addition, the payroll costs of hospitals has skyrocketed the past 6 months. In additon, there were months that these hospitals cancelled all outpatient and non emergent procedures. This is where they make their money and they lost that revenue stream for months and many are still back to pre pandemic levels.
Up until early October, if you compared excess deaths in the US in 2020 compared to the annual average amounts of deaths from 2015 through 2019 we are actually about 300,000 higher in 2020. Some of this may be related to people not seeking care due to fear of going to the hospital, and there may be a higher suicide rate based on isolation and depression, but there are supposedly lower auto deaths this year as well.
Taking all this into account, most experts believe we have actually undercounted fatalities.
I know that I am 51 in good health with no other complications and this is as sick as I have been. I am 3 weeks later and still exhausted. Smell and taste have still not come back. I have not had a day without a headache and even the slightest exertion will cause me to cough. I can only imagine what it does to anyone else with any other complications. Look up Kenny Maddux. Long time teacher and coach in Great Falls. 69 years old, but still working and coaching. Not obese. Active guy. Recently passed away from it.
I still believe robust RAPID testing and tracing for hot spots and at risk populations could allow us to keep everything else open and active. The day I found out I was positive I told my staff and patients that were in the window of exposure. My receptionist went into the same clinic I did and told them that she was potentially exposed. They would not test her because she did not have symptoms. She had to go to a different place and wait a week. Same story with my assistant. I received rapid test only because I had my clinic shirt on and the Dr. recommended it due to the potential number of people I was in contact with. Our athletes can get tested daily or every other day. Staff in nursing homes and other assisted living facilities are lucky if they get it weekly. Without getting political, I am going to say we underestimated it at every level. There is plenty of blame to go around, but the time we had to catch up we didn't take advantage of it. I only ask that you do what you can do and don't point fingers and don't be proud. Mask, distance, and wash. Take care of what you can and pray everyone else does their part.
Now I will let you animals get back to flinging s#*t at each other.
grizindabox said:Spanky2 said:Box, if Biden stuffed the ballot box wouldn’t that be fraud? Further, if you are a Biden supporter, what is your view of the Biden Crime Family and the activities with China? Is it acceptable to you that the President could be compromised?
Spanky, my entire point is that currently there is no credible evidence of stuffing the ballot box. Just a lot of accusations that to this point haven't been proven to be anything but baseless rants. So far, not a single Trump Campaign lawyer has accused anyone of fraud in court, and actually several, including Rudy, have stated it was not about fraud. Weird that fraud seems to be left out of all these lawsuits in court? Also, I see Biden no more compromised than our current sitting President.
I think it cost lives and cost him the election. If he would have followed the intelligence agencies’ reports, they were spying on China and other countries and knew it was transmittable person to person in late December or early January. If he had followed scientific/medical advice that he had then, the country would have rallied around him like we did after 9/11, and done whatever he told us we should do to keep our families safe, like wearing masks in February and social distancing we would have had at least half as many deaths, the economy wouldn’t have suffered as much and he would have been re-elected like FDR was re-elected during WW2. In times of national security crisis we usually don’t change horses. His messaging was chaotic and at cross purposes. Terrible lapse in judgment or just simply incompetence by him and his administration, he will be written about how not to handle a pandemic. It’s really tragic for our country.PlayerRep said:Jesse said:I didn’t realize that you were as batshit crazy as cuervohola. You just repeated verbatim what Trump said, well at least what he said to Woodward, but not to the rest of our country. I would wager that if you could have asked the 250,000 dead Americans and their families if they would have preferred the truth from the president back then about how to stay safe durning a pandemic they would not have said no don’t tell us don’t want to start a panic and impact the stock market. Trump out and out lied to his own citizens and downplayed the threat even after he was informed by his own hand picked national intelligence director, Robert O’Brien in January that it would be the biggest national security crisis of his presidency and he lies to us about it. What a dumb-ass.
I posted what Trump said to show that it wasn't what you said he said. Initially, you said Trump said 3 things. You were wrong on 2.5 of them.
I don't see what Trump said as lies, especially when he explained why he was playing the virus down at times.

I don't know what the video proves or doesn't prove. But your posts prove that you didn't even watch the video when you posted about it.

You're dumber than cardboard if you think 250,000 people have died from this "pandemic". Hospitals get paid more if the toe tag says "Covid". They get more to start with if the patient is listed as Covid (under the CARES act), and then of course they can't change it upon death and wouldn't want to anyway.

So all these drs, nurses, administrators and insurance coders just routinely commit fraud against the federal government for free? Are the docs getting kick backs from the hospitals at least for risking their medical licenses? Why isn’t the DOJ all over this, I can’t find any news stories where anyone has been caught doing what would be considered a federal criminal offense can you? Seems like these are the same old recycled tropes that were being used to discount the numbers when we are at only the tens of thousands of deaths back in the spring. My advice for what it is worth give it a rest and stfu already, there is no there there and there isn’t going to be even at the scotus. This was the most closely watched election cycle in history by both sides and the media. You have nothing to show for all your conspiracies other then your own biases that really don’t count for much.
Question for you though, Trump is said to be contemplating announcing that he is running again in 2024. If he decides to issue himself a pardon and also his kids before leaving office in January will it affect his re-election bid? I think it would be the most ballsy thing a potus has ever done, his base will love it as an eff you to the establishment but it will turn off the majority of votes and cost himself the election again by being a dumb ass. Stupid is as stupid does.

I did, and it is some random person making assumptions about what happened. The video doesn't prove fraud, it just proves there was an updated adjustment to the totals. It demonstrates no context as to why that happened. As far as I can tell, that was a 2019 KY governors race that had no accusations of elections fraud and the loser conceded without any issue. I will also add that Trump won KY twice and it is the home of Rand Paul and Mitch McConnel. I don't see anyone questioning the KY election results.
