In the 13 months since the US ended the #COVID19 public health emergency on May 11, 2023, more Americans have been killed by COVID than died in the eight years of the Vietnam War (which was the US's fourth most deadly war following the Civil War, WW1 and WW2).

COVID deaths since May 11, 2023: 61,070

US deaths in Vietnam from 1965 to 1973: 58,281

Whenever I see young #protesters calling #Biden "#GenocideJoe" and threatening to not vote for him, and risking letting #TheOrangeMenace win a second term, and the #DNC Convention to be held in #Chicago, I can't help but see history repeating itself, where young anti-war protesters disrupted the '68 Convention in Chicago to cost #Democrats the election (arguably) and put "#TrickyDick" back in office (after being Ike's #VP for 8 years.) 😞

Via Jon Favreau:

  1. Republicans block a bill that would protect contraception

  2. Trump floats jailing his opponents; an informal advisor suggests executing them

  3. DataProgress poll: 63% of swing voters have heard little to nothing about Trump's guilty verdict

May I humbly suggest that Biden supporters use their feeds to put some of this info in front of people instead of continuing to complain/amplify stupid WSJ story …?

152 days to go. Lots of work to do. Gotta pick our battles wisely.

In my experience, people don't really start to pay attention until about 3-4 weeks before the election, and then, the sum-total of what shapes their #vote is the ads they see on TV and the state of the economy on #ElectionDay (which often boils down to: the price of gas.)

I remember in 2016, there was a question as to whether #Melania would even leave NYC to live in the WH.

The excuse at the time was, "She's staying behind until Barron finishes the school year."

She never enjoyed being #FLotUS, and we weren't thrilled having her represent us either.

If #TheOrangeMenace manages to worm his way back into the WH, I'm willing to bet she won't be joining him.

I can confirm this as a "retired" Substitute Teacher.

People (particularly kids) like to feel like they have some input over how they should be treated.

Asking them a question also serves as a helpful distraction when they are getting out of hand and now have to stop and think up an answer.

All 3 of the potential VP picks shown (Vance, Rubio, Burgum) have about as much a chance of being T****'s as I do.

This is what does. All 3 of these men attacked/criticized him. Now they are defending him & kissing his ass in public to his delight.

This is EXACTLY what he did to when he dangled the possibility of being his Sec or State, making grovel for a job T**** had NO intention of ever giving him.

He gets off on humiliating his critics.

One protester who attended T**** #Bronx rally said she observed "license plates from Tennessee, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, etc."

T****'s "groupies" follow him around the country to ensure he's never seen before a tiny crowd to make it look like he's more popular than he really is.

The #Media's playing a dangerous game allowing this myth to perpetuate. It's why they can't believe it when he loses by huge numbers, and "the only explanation is that the election must have been stolen".
