How come you make it a point to whine about Lebron but not Tom Brady?

Well, so much for supporting conservative values without saying racist shit. Couldn’t get past the username, a new record.
The heritage you celebrate is based on and steeped in treating one group of people as literal property. Your not thinking it was doesn’t make it so, the entire concept of the “Gentleman Farmer” that the Southern Mystique grew up around was only made possible by buying and selling slaves.

Pointing out that LeBron is a crybaby who whines and pouts too much when refs call a foul against him is not racist. Laura Ingraham-style “shut up and dribble” complaints are more likely to veer into the territory of racism.
People that call LeBron a whiner are the same type of people who called Michael Jordan a ballhog.
But these same people love them some Bobby Knight and Nick Saban.

People on the left are in general nicer to others than people on the right are, though not by an overwhelming margin like 80/20 imo (and excluding people who only claim to be on the left).
Ok - moved to the laptop so I can navigate better.
Now - since everyone is burning to know my opinion about the virus situation, i figured replying all would be better than individually etc so we can consolidate this perhaps.
Doing the travel ban was a good idea, even though others may disagree it was a good start. I think he’s doing the best he can with what he’s got. I’m not sure anyone had any real idea on how it would go, or what he was told upfront. I’ll try not to generalize you all here, but as far as the “fifteen cases” down to zero - perhaps that was the situation then as best he knew. If someone can point me to evidence he knew better, I’ll be happy to check it out. I also have an open mind enough to think maybe we’re not being told the entire truth, by anyone.
I hate both of them (saban and bobby knight.) Thanks though! and BTW, saban whines a lot too!
Are you referring to his brain here?

Most prominent among them were former Homeland Security advisor Tom Bossert, Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration Scott Gottlieb, and Director for Medical and Biodefense Preparedness at the National Security Council Dr. Luciana Borio who beginning in early January used op-eds, television appearances, social media posts, and private entreaties to try to spur the administration into action.

I don’t think it would be the best interest for him to come out and say “hey theres this virus we don’t know anything about, but we’re all fucked and you should probably deeply worry.” There has to be some form of controlling panic, even though the MSM has been sure to make it a big of a hysteria as possible imo. I don’t know about you personally, but a lot of folks don’t trust the media, and for good reason imo.
Why would it be reasonable to think 15-to-0 was even a possibility? China was shutting down cities of 10+ million people because of Covid. What do you think Trump could have possibly been told to think we had some way of stopping it that the Chinese didn’t? We already knew that it could spread without symptoms, so why even think the initial number 15 was accurate?
Your “evidence he knew better” question leads me to a larger point: How trustworthy do you think Trump is? Some media group (NYT, WP?) tracks Trump’s lies and probably by now has him at the 15,000 mark for blatant lies or extremely misleading statements since inauguration. What would you put that number at?
Edit: you can ignore my questions… everyone is asking the same thing. I don’t type as fast as I used to.

Do you think Trump is correct to say he takes no responsibility?
