I've been avoiding this thread recently since all the American news recently has been nothing but depressing and going down the rabbit-hole of their f'ups has been making me feel down.
Decided to pop in today. The last few pages have actually been therapeutic. I never thought seeing Trump this miserable or down would make me feel better about myself.
So if Sammy Superspreader coughs all over you, rest assured that by the time the air passes through the HVAC system and back to you it will be 99.9% covid free!
They should just suck out all the air. Boom! No more airborne transmission!
Might solve some other issues as well...

Edit: using 2017 data COVID-19 just passed Alzheimer’s to take over 6th place in the leading causes of death in the USA. 47,000 more Deaths and it will break into the top 3.
I think it’s worse than that, I believe you’re comparing annual totals to the ongoing Covid deaths. So, Covid has killed more Americans in about four months than Alzheimer’s did in all of 2017.
Cancer and Heart Disease kill 50-55,000 Americans a month, Covid is averaging about 30,000. Since January Covid-19 has gone from literally non-existent to the third leading cause of death in the US.
For comparison, in Canada about 2,000 people a month have been dying of this illness, a rate which also places Covid as the third leading cause of death in the nation.
Given his ego, you wonder what level of empty would cause Trump to actually go Axl Rose (also sounds like Parscale is out, and maybe Jared too?)

Donald Trump’s exhausted trudge from Marine One toward the White House after his botched rally in Tulsa, his red tie undone, a grim look on his face, a crumpled MAGA hat in his hand, is now an iconic image of his presidency. And as always with Trump, he’s already looking for someone to blame. The most obvious candidate, according to sources, is his embattled campaign manager, Brad Parscale. “Brad really #### the bed Saturday night. You have to remember, execution is 95% of presidential politics,” a Republican close to the White House told me over the weekend. Parscale committed a cascade of errors, from overhyping expected turnout to blaming the half-filled arena on protesters. Trump was so furious when he saw how thin the crowd was that he threatened to not go onstage, two sources briefed on the discussions told me. The sources said that Parscale, reading the tea leaves, is planning to step down. “He knows he can’t survive,” one source told me.
Jason Miller, a senior adviser to the Trump campaign, said Parscale is safe. “Brad is the campaign manager, and he’s the one in charge,” Miller said.
But one thing is for sure: The blame game has shifted into high gear. Trump insiders told me Trump was presented with five options of where to hold his rally. “The president chose Tulsa,” a source said. Sources also told me that if Parscale is forced out, he likely won’t be the only casualty of the rally fiasco. Trump is debating revoking his son-in-law Jared Kushner’s control over the campaign, sources said. As I previously reported, Trump has been frustrated with Kushner’s oversight of the campaign in light of polling that consistently shows Trump losing to Joe Biden. Another source of friction has been campaign spending and reports Trump has gotten that Parscale is making millions of dollars. “Did Jared allow this?” Trump asked advisers recently, according to a source. (Kushner declined to comment.)
One way to measure Kushner’s diminished influence will be found in whom Trump would choose to replace Parscale. Top candidates include 2016 veterans Miller, David Bossie, and Corey Lewandowski, all of whom Kushner successfully kept on the outer fringe of Trumpworld. “We can’t allow Jared’s stupid disagreements to get in the way,” Trump recently told advisers, according to a source briefed on the conversation.

Certainly...it’s a running total for Covid. I was trying to imply exactly what you posted. It is scary that a disease unknown at this time last year is resulting in these numbers even considering the whole co-morbidity excuses people want to use. It comes down to people not understanding that it’s not 10s of millions that die in the US every year but about 2.5 million. Adding 150-200k out of the blue is shocking.
Yes I have to say I look fondly back at the old school hell fire and brimstone religous wack jobs I grow up with.
I wrote a paper on Paisley in a religious extremism course in university. Listened to a lot of his recorded 'sermons' - vile man. Most definitely funded/aided bombings in Northern Ireland too!

I wouldn't disagree, claimed to want to stay 'British' and yet appeared to hate the British almost as much as the Catholics and yet was also central to bringing peace to N Ireland.
