So Russia’s vaccine is being given to officials in Guinea. Does the term pig come to mind?

With a market of 7 billion customers, somebody is going to gain world wide recognition for their research and development programs. PRC would like that.

Sorry but OT
The “most admired man in America” planning to incite a riot on January 6. He expects it’s going to be “wild.”

I anticipate China’s vaccine will be effective & have enduring immunity.

Trump is loathe to leave Mar-a-Lago once ensconced there during an escape from DC. Even in the role of a loser I have to think he was looking forward to basking in the adulation and attention of club members and invited, friendly pro-Trump media for his annual New Year’s Eve party. Leaving early is very odd, and I’m betting it portends some move or announcement on his part that will come to no good. He’s up to something.

To be fair, Rump’s Gallop Poll selection is based on news coverage. Rump dominated by being an asshat. Obama’s 12 year reign was as well but for positive reasons.

Some say because he is despondent and can’t face his moneyed supporters. The looser child in him is at play.

He just edged out Obama at 18% so by my logic, 82% don’t admire him.

Exactly agree. This isn’t just another Giuliani law suit. And if Reps lose in GA expect McConnell will be arm in arm with Trump on the 6th.

He’ll leave, but I’m almost certain he won’t leave quietly. In my opinion, the worst is yet to come (as if that’s even possible).

ETA This is very ominous. Hope nothing comes of it, but very ominous.

WTF? I though that Trump was the only leader capable of ordering a vaccine to be developed in short time, that is why they were going to call the Trump Vaccine.

Has Trump crossed the legal threshold for a charge of sedition or inciting a riot?

He will be in DC during his coming attempted “coup”. When that fails, he’ll slink back down to Mary Lago, and if he senses the need, he’ll flee the country, claiming to be on a goodwill tour of countries that stood by him, where he hopes to avoid extradition, e.g. Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Russia, Bahrain, Israel, etc.

Personally, I don’t understand why he doesn’t return to Bavaria or perhaps Austria.
