Here's what we need from Trump, instead of ridiculous claims of saving 100 million lives with therapeutics that have already proven to not immunize against transmission.
1) Not make the same mistake he made locking down the country at all, let alone the second time.
2) Not make the same mistake he made elevating Fauci to potentate status.
3) Not make the same mistake he made criticizing states like Georgia when they reopened last year.
4) Not make the same mistake he made waiting way too long to bring Scott Atlas in to counter Fauci.
5) Not make the same mistake he made falling for a media panic that set the stage for the very dubious mail-in election process that was his undoing.
6) Not make the same mistake he made giving Big Pharma companies, including Moderna which had never even brought a product to market before, legal immunity to experiment on us with injections they're now attempting to mandate.
7) Not make the same mistake he made nominating judges like Kavanaugh, who just continued allowing CDC to declare private property rights of landlords to be null and void.
Should I go on? Trump's leadership during Covid unraveled a promising presidency, and was a cavalcade of blunders we're all still paying for. Other than locking down the border in January, he did virtually everything else wrong from there.
We need him to learn from these mistakes, especially if he's going to thwart anyone else running in his place for the highest office. We don't need to just run it back. We need to win. Our way of life is at stake. Our way of life is more important than his endless boasting.

Thread on why we keep circling the Covid drain, with seemingly no non-confrontational way out. We have two primary unresolved issues.
1) Almost all trust has been lost in public health officials, particularly the figurehead Fauci, except among one particular political group most prone to rely on government for guidance.
This leaves us with no objective place to go to acquire information that everyone agrees can be trusted. The lack of trustworthy objective information has led to a lack of trust in their policy decisions, ostensibly based on information most no longer trust.

Went to the comedy club here for the first time in 20 years to see @PreacherLawson, who we loved from America's Got Talent a couple of years ago. He was incredibly likable, funny, and enjoyable despite never being profane a single time.
On the contrary, there's the new #TheSuicideSquad movie, which is an example of what happens when a filmmaker like James Gunn is given no restrictions at all -- not even the loosening standards of today's PG-13 rated movies (and I'm hardly a prude).
The movie lacks nearly the charm and engaging storylines of his Guardians of the Galaxy movies. But there is a ridiculous scene where a young daughter and her incarcerated dad exchange a series of "F-yous" over the course of several minutes.

54% of Israel’s severe cases are fully vaccinated. Doubt Pfizer will be citing that data in its next investor briefing.
According to Israel’s own data, one of the most vaccinated countries in the world, 8.4% of its current Covid cases develop severity and 54% of those cases are fully vaccinated. And Israel’s explosion of cases also confirms in real time Pfizer is a therapeutic not an immunizer.
Based on this data from Israel, and looking at percentage of Israelis fully vaccinated, here are an Israeli’s current odds of acquiring a severe Covid infection:

Fully vaccinated: .004%
Unvaccinated: .005%

What is the point of all this tyranny and divisiveness?

Let's look in this thread at how Delta Variant performed in other countries. Two with higher vaccination rates than the U.S., and one with much, much lower vaccination rates so we get a well-rounded sample.
Let's start in the UK, which didn't come out of lockdown until July 19th. Its Delta Variant case climb began around June 4th. From that day to its peak on July 17th (43 days), cases in the UK rose a whopping 772%!
However, there wasn't a parallel stark rise in deaths. In fact, the UK (population 66 million) hasn't eclipsed 100 daily deaths since March 23rd (128 days). Its reasonable to assume lower natural immunity in UK with longer lockdown, too.

So after Israel’s prime minister announces fascism starts August 8, they remove the data that would expose their fascism, just as all fascists do.
Israel wants to create a two-tiered society on August 8th of vaccinated and unvaccinated, but then doesn’t want to provide the data any longer that would even remotely justify it. All to force folks to take a corporate jab that is diminishing in real time according to their data.
If such an alliance of elites in government and corporate sector to impose on the freedoms of the people isn’t the very definition of fascism, I don’t know what is. That is fascism, whether in Israel, America, or anywhere else. Call it out by its name, or be ruled by it later.

Not a single state Trump won has reached 50% vaccination by the Trump vaccines. But a bunch of states Trump lost couldn’t wait to get vaccinated, by the program started by our first nazi president or something.
