Yeah, funny it was being used as 'The Way' by so many last month, now, crickets. (Not just here, I saw posts on FB about how 'they did things right'.... until now)
It's crickets because you guys are in so much denial over data and facts that (as I told you) we're just going to have to wait. There's no point in talking to people like you that refuse to acknowledge reality. It's like you think flattening the curve made the virus go away...

If Minneapolis is exploding...then what's next? It's time to put aside our petty differences....it really is...
I'll trust your actions not your words. The ball is in your court.

I know for a fact you have been all lives matter guy on this board...
And your posts from roughly end of March to early May contradict all of that.
I don’t know anything about your living circumstances.
OMG!!! Those evil racist "let's care about all humans" people strike again! The nerve of some people. Caring about people of any race. Shocking!
Oh yeah, let's also condemn the people worried about those in nursing facilities as well as those losing their jobs, homes, businesses, minds, etc. You caught me caring about all those different ethnicities.
If that's what you want to brag about "getting me" on, I'll wear that badge proudly. Thanks for the recognition.

Person 1: another police officer killed a defenseless black persons today.
Person 2: why does it matter that he’s black? Police are assholes to a lot of people.
Equates being and asshole to murder.
That’s covert racism.
You know what the best part about being me is mitch? I'm not covert anything here. I'm the most honest person here about my feelings because I have to be PC everywhere else. You get what you get and there's no need to try to remember what I said because I'm not bullshitting anyone. That's why I can tell you I never said that every time you try to put words in my mouth.
So as usual, nice try at making stuff up and then assigning it to someone else. Once again you fail.
I'm the minority in my neighborhood. You think I'm still living here if I'm a racist (covert or otherwise)? You think I'd have moved here in the first place? You say all these things but never put any thought into what you're saying.
You might be the most mentally unstable person I've ever interacted with. You keep trying to make stuff up in some hope that you're going to someday catch someone the way you've been caught over and over, yet you always fail. Either you're just not bright enough to catch anyone or you're trying to catch the wrong people. Either way, you should probably knock it off.

Trump is to busy tweeting, consuming ineffective and dangerous pharmaceuticals and spreading conspiracy theories to even bother leading. He’d better just hit the golf course til this all blows over.
You should watch Live PD. Cops treat all kinds of people like shit...even white ones. But that narrative isn't news, right? Nope. Has to feed the racist narrative to keep us divided.
Nobody here is in favor of cops killing anyone. Nowhere did trump issue a please kill all black people executive order. Quit feeding the narrative. You're the only person on this site that has ever posted racial slurs. Stop. You're not going to race bait people here so stop trying.
I believe you’re a covert racist...just because you don’t use the N word doesn’t make you not racist.
The point is trump isn’t doing anything as usual.
You're welcome to believe whatever fantasy you want. You on the other hand have proven yourself to be one, so there's that.

The area that had dams break and she refused to lift any orders to help? No, she has very few friends there.
This is absurd...question polls all you want, but a state that voted for trump by tenths of a percentage point then voted a female into office as its governor by a considerable larger margin.
She is more than fine.
Lol.

If that's Michigan's governor, she's out. She will get destroyed for her handling of the virus. Her state hates her.
There's only a vocal minority against her. Poll after poll during this whole thing has shown most support how this is being handled. Even Republicans surveyed say those ridiculous protests were inappropriate.
https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/ … 227671002/
"Overall, 64% of those surveyed approved of Whitmer's response, compared to 33% of those who did not. Unsurprisingly, Democrats were particularly supportive, with 96% approving of her actions, and Republicans in opposition, with 79% disapproving.
But Independents, a key voting bloc in Michigan, came down on Whitmer's side, 65%-28%. Forty percent of them said they strongly approved of her actions.
"By any standard, those are terrific numbers for any political figure," Czuba said.

Tuesday’s Washington Post-Ipsos poll has Whitmer’s coronavirus approval rating at an amazing 62%. It’s a great number. Trump’s is at 43%. Not good.
About a week ago, however, Whitmer’s University of Minnesota-Ipsos approval number was at 72%. Also, her 62% was tied for 37th among the nation’s 50 governors ... and only one had an approval rating below 50%. Every governor but the Georgia guy has a great number and by comparison, Whitmer’s isn’t all that special.

If you want to argue polls, I guess you can, but there's no shred of evidence Michigan hates Whitmer. There's a ton of evidence they hate Trump though.
Ah, polls. Some people never learn...
If you ask the right people you can get any result you want. I'm not even talking about the protesters. I know Democrats that live, sleep and shit democratic that live in Michigan and want her out. But they don't get polled.
