  1. Trump had called it herd mentality. He may have been talking about his cult followers. They believe whatever he says.

    1. @Adam T You creatures sure like rhymes and puns and calling other people pathetic. I guess to a subhuman like you, I’m a russian

    1. And Sweden. It’s disastrous. Immunity only seems to last a couple of months, so how is herd immunity supposed to work?

  2. Thanks MSNBC for all the real news, but there’s a typo in the description, it should read “Dean of Brown University” instead of “Dead”. Cheers…

    1. @Patriot Spring Really? And how long have you been a psychiatrist? Most of the ones talking about Trump call him ‘Psychopathic’

    2. @Patriot Spring Really? Well it’s easy to see why the words ‘Fukin Moron’ were invented to describe idiots like you & Trump

    1. Trump: “Science doesn’t know anything about herb mentality or herd mentality. The trees in California are buched together like a herd and if I nuked them there would be nuclear winter and the temperatures would come down and this whole COVID thing would be solved. I’m really smart…you should check out my television ratings

    1. Gee, at one point, i thought that was Reagan. Then I was absolutely positive it was Bush 2. Now, I am expecting the GOP to nominate something worse than Trump, but imagining such a creature is beyond my current world view. However, I have faith in the GOP to produce it.

  3. When Trumps own family acknowledges he is a Narcissistic sociopath you should listen. Vote out Moronvirus so we can deal with Coronavirus and the damage it’s causing to the economy and the American people.

  4. The UK started down this road and when presented with facts, they got serious and The PM got Covic 19..having that many sick means your medical system is overwhelmed. Count in that frontline medical workers.

  5. Herd immunity won’t work I already got corona twice exactly 90 days after the first time I got the corona

  6. Let’s be fair to Trump: when you are faced by the Trump Sheeples “herd mentality” are some of the words that come to mind.
