Atlas Urges People To Spend Thanksgiving With Elderly Despite COVID Because They May Die Soon

Dr. Scott Atlas, President Donald Trump’s favorite COVID-19 adviser who opposes lockdowns and often espouses Trump-friendly beliefs on the pandemic, made an eyebrow-raising suggestion on Monday night regarding family gatherings on Thanksgiving.

Remember death panels?

Well, here they are.

Axiom: every Trumpista accusation was (or is) an admission of guilt.

And this motherfucker, utterly incompetent and unsuited for the task, has been empowered by Trump. So any deaths resulting from Atlas’s psychotic death-culting should be laid at Donald’s door.

I wish Dr. Atlas would “take one for the team” ASAP.

What a lovely idea. Increase the chances of them getting a painful not necessarily but often fatal disease so they can suffer completely alone except for masked medical staff with no contact with family, all because they might die this year anyway. I’m participating in my third 90th Zoom birthday since August this week, and looking forward to the 103 birthday of a friend’s mom. Each one of these people lives a far richer and more valuable life then Atlas could even imagine

OMG. Then for Christmas, we can stick them all on icebergs and wave goodbye.

ETA: All of them that survive Thanksgiving, that is.

Scott Atlas starring as a reincarnated Jim Jones in Jonestown the Sequel. Seriously this guy needs to shut the hell up and crawl back under the rock he came from. Sadly he will get his own 1 hour show on Newsmax to tell us how a colon cleansing will help prevent COVID and he is selling the kit.

They’ve always been there with the GOP – they’ve always wanted to be the ones to determine who was and who wasn’t worthy of health insurance…

They are just not hiding it as much any more, along with their racism, homophobia, and other endearing qualities.

OMG. Taking advice about families from this nutcase?! It’s horrifying to know that this kind of thinking is coming from the White House. Par for the course though. These people are monsters.
I’ll bet the elderly Trump supporters are willing to take one for the team.

Uh huh.

I held my father’s hand as he took his last breath one week ago today.
It’s a good thing Atlas is not within my reach right now.

He must be auditioning for the Liberty University school of medicine.

As soon as Trump can get assurances from Vance that NY won’t prosecute with full vigor, he’ll concede Biden’s victory. Joe has already signaled that he’s for moving on.

Biden has raised concerns that investigations would further divide a country he is trying to unite and risk making every day of his presidency about Trump, said the sources, who spoke on background to offer details of private conversations. They said he has specifically told advisers that he is wary of federal tax investigations of Trump or of challenging any orders Trump may issue granting immunity to members of his staff before he leaves office. One adviser said Biden has made it clear that he “just wants to move on.”

Another Biden adviser said, “He’s going to be more oriented toward fixing the problems and moving forward than prosecuting them.”
