    1. @MG3 He’d have my vote if I were American. The only reason Trump looks as bad as he does is because of the oligarch controlled MSM. Who would you vote for Creepy Uncle Joe who has a habit of putting his hands on those who aren’t old enough to defend themselves?

    1. Wrong
      Do not open the border until after the virus has subsided. The election has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with it.

    2. @Roly R ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha 🤣😆😆🤣😆😆😆🤣😆😆😊🤣😆😁😄😅😆😆😄😃😁😆😅😅😄😂

    3. The only downside to trump winning is all the violent loser lefties that’ll come up here and try and get free gibs

    1. Because He is too trusting of scoundrels .. He wants to collaborate with out realizing with whom they’re all vipers on the take .

    1. Right . Funny here in japan we have 1/3 the population and 1/200 the deaths here. Highest density of cities anywhere in the world except for China.
      We didn’t panic here. We got science and we got genuine information from our leaders here.

      1/200

      Let that sink in

    1. Right….riiiiiiighhhhht. The latest projection will be half a million dead by spring.
      Canada with 1/10 the population has 1/20 the deaths from Covid.
      This didn’t happen on its own.

      Canada and it’s standard of living and economy is the envy of the world —except perhaps for this ignorant and self entitled not to realize this.

      Trudeau is well into his second term as PM. Sorry it doesn’t fit your narrative

    2. @shizuokaBLUES Your “projections” failed miserably. And Canadian death rates are MUCH higher than in many countries around the world!

  1. So other world leaders warned there public so they could prepare for safe gaurds why death toll lower in there countries while this leader hides the truth from the public why death toll is as highest in the world for population. America last
