This is nothing more than another fake outrage TDS post typical of the unhinged OP.
You're being absurd. You know perfectly well your question was an observation that no one has completely isolated themselves, including you.

Well Pelosi did want to have that big, cheerful orientation dinner for newcomers.

OP;
Yes, it does bother me. I may be one of them.
It's too late for Kinger DJT to change his soul.
New Administration will show some leadership direction?

Yes, obviously but plausible, I disagree. Show me where does it say 250k deaths due to covid. I just checked cdc and it shows 228k.

After months of masks and social distancing then how will the number climb so rapidly in the next 2 months?

Just due to the holidays, of which only 65% of the USA is Christian?

Trump hasn't attended a coronavirus briefing in over 5 months.

He doesn't care one bit about responding to a national disaster as the leader of the country. He has not interest in doing the job he's still irrationally claiming is his. The reason? He's not capable of leadership at all. He's only interested if feeding his narcissistic self indulgent ego.
Not "DUE" to COVID 19, and not even died having tested positive for COVID 19, and deaths from COVID 19 are paid a premium with the CARES act, here they said $50,000 for each one! That is a fact, you can verify it for yourself!

Birx describes how deaths are counted in reference to COVID 19, and that includes "might have died WITH COVID 19"

Was he supposed to, or has he delegated that authority to others like a good "director" does? So, he played golf, so what? Do you really think this constant battering of Trump here is going to change the election outcome. We support Trump, and the Dominion investigation will settle it, not you harping on Trump every single day.

We ALL know how to mitigate that. We've known since the start. Mask up, distance, wash your filthy hands after touching filthy things. That's on US. Not some old politician miles away.

What is Trump or Biden really gonna contribute?

Your State has the ability to do whatever they feel necessary. Lockdowns,...partial lockdowns,..partial schools. Partial businesses. And they Have been doing that.

What more do you want??!
In KS, and I suspect other places, they are using overly sensitive tests and including "not likely" infected as "positive" for the virus, so people who have had similar viruses in the past are testing "not likely" only picking up something from the past. The head of KDHE was also caught lying about mask mandates and whether they were working (https://sentinelksmo.org/kdhe-doctor...mask-mandates/) It should come as no surprise that our governor is a Democrat.

Great question, and you'll find that it has been ignored by the OP.

It appears our dear leader has played golf around 30 times since he last attended a Corona Virus Task Force meeting.
"carnivalday" had a question which I have quoted above. I wanted to bring it to your attention as you must of missed it.

They are just nervous over the investigation of Dominion Software and how it might reflect on the election results. I'm guessing they feel like they need to do something to show their support for Biden, and being critical of Trump is all they have. Who will they insult when they find out Biden duped them?

Yep, Pelosi wanted people to go to Chinatown and Biden thought Trump was being racist. That is funny about Biden thinking Trump is racist, when one looks at Biden's history of racism!

If the answer is no, then I'm sorry but I'm not trying to be condescending, but there are ways to know those kind of things.
I have taken a college level class in statistics and probability, and while one can forecast based on similar data, and the variables remain constant, one can "predict". Keep in mind that Fauci predicted that 1 million would die in the US OF COVID 19. Predictions are just projections based on similar data, and if the variables change.............Keep in mind, the weatherman projects the weather in a similar manner.

At a minimum, someone is assigned to prepare an Executive Briefing that goes to his Chief of Staff who sorts out what the President needs to hear about.

Have none of you ever held a job that allows you to understand how executives are kept up to date of the millions of issues going on in a large organization?

All Trumps attendance at a Covid Task Force meeting would do is disrupt their work as they would have to stop everything to meet with the boss.
For some reason, some of these people are very unfamiliar with how our government works, especially the Executive Branch. They seem to think that Trump sits alone in an office and has all the power in the country to do as he pleases, never asks any experts............... Sadly, they believe that if elected Biden will be "king" and answer to no one either. Big disappointments ahead!

See, here is the problem with your side.

Trump thinks like a businesman. Maybe he realizes it's a waste of time for him to attend meeting after meeting after meeting, discussing a virus that nobody is going to stop until when & if a vaccine is ready to go.

Trump doesn't think like a politician who will spend year after year attending meetings and never actually get something accomplished.

You do bring up a good point which is central to Trump's inadequacy for the moment, Trump only approaches things transactionally, as in business. None of his decisions are guided by genuine human empathy, either for Americans or anyone else.

Hey buddy, I’m not the one posting threads on the internet blaming covid deaths on trump.

I’ve congregated with people indoors... in fact we have a friend coming over tomorrow night for dinner...and she’s a democrat!

But I’m not on a high horse blaming trump and republicans for this crappy situation. Masks don’t work, the only thing that works is isolation and most of us are not doing it. You cannot blame it on trump, Biden/Harris cannot and will not fix it....we only have our own selfishness (you and me included) to blame for this.
