Republicans are lining up behind top Republican McConnell saying the chances of them attending the Republican National Convention In Jacksonville, Florida are slim to next to none because at this moment the coronavirus is in a runaway condition in that state.
Dr.Fauci claims we are in a “ perfect storm” and the virus has mutated to infected people faster and easier.

So I worked with a lady who lived in a complex with a mix of residents. She had agoraphobia and I tried to convince her that the world was not a bad place and come to the shops with me to get groceries.
She connected with an overweight man in the building who was lonely, unfortunately he was unable to access supports that he desperately needed.
One day she had noticed this guys was not around and popped her head around to his place to see if he was ok. She noticed the keys in the door and thought that it was out of character.
She opened the door and saw him hanging from the ceiling, his face was purple and very dead. He left a note and it said "No one will notice I am gone".
As you can imagine it took a long time to help her out of her tiny unit after that event.

Well Gus,
This coronavirus is taking a human toll in more ways than one.
The news claim that wife and child abuse has gone up during the coronavirus.

Well Gus, This coronavirus is taking a human toll in more ways than one. The news claim that wife and child abuse has gone up during the coronavirus. Domestic Violence is through the roof here. I’m talking to a friend about this forum over dinner. He pointed out how being “liberal” and “libertarian” are totally different.

WELL THAT REMINDS ME!
So I worked with a guy who was punched so much by his Dad in the head that he got early dementia. He was randomly punching people because his brain had so much damage and PTSD he couldn't be allowed out without a support worker.
He used to say "Where's wonder woman?". We think it was him asking his mum for help which he never got.
He died at 27.
How everyone's empathy going?

The Lincoln Project
I never heard of it until now.
These republicans do not like democrats, but do not like Trump.
I have seen their ads on TV.
The ad on TV where Trump is struggling down the the stairs of Air Force One.
The ad on TV where Trump uses two shaking hands trying to drink a glass of water.
There must be hundreds of splinter groups in our society to put their beliefs into our lives.

"Mt Rushmore . . . think about it-
In 1996, when Bill Clinton visited during his re-election campaign, ABC news called it a place where American ingenuity and American creativity came together and formed an amazing American accomplishment..
In 2008, when Barrack Obama campaigned there, CNN called Mt Rushmore a majestic site and every president should visit..
In 2016, Bernie Sanders campaigned there and said he was humbled to be in to be in the presence of 4 of the greatest American presidents.. CNN described the scene as awe-inspiring...
2020...Trump visits...CNN called it a celebration of white supremacy and Trump will stand before two former slave owners on land wrestled away from Native Americans...
If you think the media isn't agenda-driven, you have your head in the sand..."

So I’m curious for the Americans in this thread.
Liberal means the following: social welfare net, subsidised medical help, communist, gun control, Green technology, affirmative action?
US Right Wing means as follows: More Guns, more oil, Fascism, no welfare, full priced medical help?

The Trump news on TV today is that his Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos is putting tremendous pressure on schools to open on time with fewer rules.
Trump on the other hand is calling the doctors at the CDC a bunch of lying doctors trying to stop his re-election.
You would think Trump would open himself up to a charge of slander?
