The event was outside.

Napacat: I referred to it as having taken place in the Rose Garden which is outside. I know it is outside. Despite that it was outside, it has been characterized by Dr. Fauci as a "superspreader" event. It is indeed fortunate that it was not inside. What's the latest count on the number of people infected at that event? 34? https://news.yahoo.com/too-tra...house-025127348.html
Of course, after the outdoor event with around 200 people, some reception of some sort took place inside with somewhat fewer people but also very few masks.
Don't even you, Napacat, agree that it is very poor judgment to attend an event like this, with dozens of persons sitting next to one another without masks? The Supreme Court has heard arguments over a zoom network, you know. Yes, I know that their hearings are inside.

What a nice civil response. Unfortunately the answer is no, he's too ignorant to understand it. I have to, after all this time, and with the many disagreements I've gotten into with other people here, say that he is the only person here who I truly think is just plain stupid.
I actually was going to post that a few months ago but I thought it would be too mean. However with his constant trolling with inane points, this title is well deserved.
In May, Fox News portrayed it as one of the greatest political scandals in American history. Ever! The Obamagate scandal of Obama, his administration and Biden had participated in a “ deep State” plot against Trump in the 2016 election.
Barr, Trump’s AG and personal attorney ordered federal prosecutors to get to the bottom of this!
When news broke of America suffered its 100,000 death, Fox reported about Obamagate. When America passed 200,000 deaths and Covid became the second leading cause of death, Fox News Bret Baier hosted a follow up on Obamagate with conspiracy commentator Mollie Hemingway.
Tucker Carlson called it domestic spying hidden under the pretext of national security.
Sean Hannity declared, “ the biggest abuse of power and corruption scandal America had ever seen. “
Laura Ingraham said top Obama administration officials had been exposed.
The Justice Department concluded no evidence of such and closed the investigation yesterday. Fox News has declined requests for comments.
Fox News feeds Trump’s ignorant fucks what they want to hear and they eat it up! 🤣😂😅. They too will believe this shit and take it to their grave, regardless.
Oh, one must also love what Tucker Carlson’s attorney said in court about him; no one believes what Mr. Carlson reports. They know he doesn’t tell the truth. It is just entertainment. Well, at least Tucker’s attorneys know he is a lying POS and said it in court on the record.
wait till you forget to switch from the wealth tv show about cruises and OANN comes on.

Irwin,
I'm not 100% sure that they can pinpoint where anyone contracts c-19 with certainty. An inside reception makes a little more sense though.
I really would have no problem attending an outside event like that.
We have a cumulative total of 2% of the population testing positive...many have since recovered.
Since napa is very ignorant of how things acutally work in a country that has competent leaders.
This is how contact tracing works and yes, this is how countries that are successful in combating covid pinpoint exactly where someone contracted covid with certainty.
When Napa kisses the dumpster, what part of body will he kiss?

Washington Post, "As he battles for seniors’ votes, Trump tweets a meme mocking Biden as elderly and disabled."
Certainly a stable genius. Seniors are currently polling something like 65% Biden , 30% Trump. But yeah, mock Biden as being too old, great way to bring him the large senior vote.
If our 4 year long national nightmare ends this year Trump can look right to himself. I've said before that if he had acted like a halfway decent human being over the coronavirus he would probably be at 60% approval rating.

The other issue is that Biden has always been a foot-in-mouth guy, but he is really quite aware and not senile. That may seem a low bar, but by Trump and others placing it there, once viewers actually see Biden clearing it by a mile, it works to his advantage.
"'Suburban women, would you please like me? Please. Please,' he said. 'I saved your damn neighborhood, OK?'”
What a contrast.
"In perhaps his most incendiary remarks, Mr. Trump repeatedly declined to disavow QAnon, a pro-Trump internet community that has been described by law enforcement as a potential domestic terrorism threat. The president professed to have no knowledge of the group, and as a result could not disavow it, but then demonstrated specific knowledge of one of its core conspiracy theories involving pedophilia that is entirely false.
“'I know nothing about it,' Mr. Trump said. 'I do know they are very much against pedophilia. They fight it very hard.'" -- NYT
There is no way that we will ever be able to understand what is in the minds of people who support this man.

What a stupid question...who the F even knows who QAnon is. Ridiculous. The fact that a TV host asks that question and will not ask the same about ANTIFA (an idea...ok right), is just asinine. Who gives a F about QAnon.
A senator asked if Judge Barrett ever paid for sexual favors....really? What is wrong with you on the left. Trump is a narcissist, a bit of a liar...but still 1,000% better than anything the left wants to put forth.
From Trump media, "President Trump Vows To Continue Protecting Senior Citizens From COVID-19"
When did he start?
Now this is the Trump we all know:
"Former White House chief of staff, retired Marine Gen. John Kelly, has told friends that President Donald Trump 'is the most flawed person' he's ever known.
"'The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it's more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life,' the retired Marine general has told friends."
I wonder if napa uses blinkers when he wants to turn left. Seems pretty obsessive that one is constantly talking about left and right.
I guess we all have to start small first before we learn the other directions.
It is very useful to make a stop in the fairyland websites of Fox "News" and OAN. In their headlines you may find the bellwether of what crap Trump's team is going to try to shovel as they desperately try to stave off defeat. As far as I can tell they are, currently, hoping that crazy man Rudy Giuliani will give the dirt on Biden's son through a bizarre chain of events concerning a laptop. They're actually pinning their hopes on this. They are certainly going with the "mail-in ballots are fraud narrative." These to me are currently at top of the attempted October surprise list. Let's see what happens.
"When the face makeup is 30 shades darker than the hand, it's technically blackface."
Not around here much, whatever happened to board-o?
Board-o is fine. I email him a bit. He’s a yankee fan so he’s a bit depressed at the moment but he’ll get over it.
