I see some people are still clinging to the possibility Trump may be sick.

The internal battle must be hard. Believe the conspiracies, or be confronted with an old, fat man recovering so quickly.

:ROFL:

How weird you all are.
There's video footage put out by the White House/himself showing his laboured breathing. And he really does not look well.

I'll take the bait.
"Only 10k" died from pure covid in the USA , Biden remarked that "only 14k" died from his own handling of h1n1 .(would have been nice if creepy Joe actually had an answer)
So even by Trump's standard of failure (according to Dems) ,he is still under the death count of a known disease while handling the brand new (thanks China) covfefe 19.
Color me intrigued - what is pure covid, and how does one die from “pure“ covid?

Dude, I have repeatedly had the flu so bad that I was put on a drip at hospital so I could wait my turn without passing out..... it really looks worse than it is in the end.

Having covid and dying from a car accident = not pure covid. Actually dying as a direct result of covid = pure covid.

How do people die from normal flu? The attack vector of the disease is similar. It is not like the aids virus.

Nice lasers. I wonder what would happened if people put up similar ones at Cuomo and Whitmers buildings?

At least 2 SCOTUS justices are keen to overturn marriage equality, too. With both Kennedy and Ginsburg gone, and another zealot installed - not that unlikely if a serious challenge is pushed up.

I don't think they will overturn it. And if you read what they wrote, it isn't want they are going to overturn.

That ruling allowed ridiculous notions that you should be forced to bake a cake for someone.
The marriage official thing is also stupid as it is pretty much a scheduling issue.

They would be able to fix it quite easily by doing the following.
1) Rule that your marriage equality doesn't overrule the right to private property and freedom of speech.
2) Allow public marriage officials to recuse themselves from doing a marriage provided they organise someone else to do it.

That would align the ruling to protecting individual rights very well. People can still get married, they just don't have the right to force someone else to accept it.

What do folk in this thread think AIDS sufferers die from, exactly?

"Pure" AIDS?

Jesus.
Actually it's impossible to die directly from AIDS unless you theoretically survive all the other diseases like TB which most die from.

Mbeki knew this way before you. I am sure he feels exonerated by the support he received from unusual quarters.

How does marriage equality affect freedom of speech? You can speak against it
As for private property, I presume you mean right to refuse service?

2) Allow public marriage officials to recuse themselves from doing a marriage provided they organise someone else to do it.

They can already ask their colleague to step in.
However, this should not inconvenience the member of the public nor should it embarrass them.
If they can't achieve this, they must do it or not work where there are marriages.

But that wasn't the dispute. Some wanted the ability to prohibit their staff from handling a marriage.
This is a problem in small towns etc. where the number of public officials is smaller.

Anti retrovirals and chemo and so on ARE toxic and can kill even perfectly healthy people though.....
