@foufoufun Yes, that's a better definition of Science, an assertion or hypothesis must be testable, peer reviewed, and sometimes even recreated by others. Trump asked for both Bleach and UV Light to be tested. I read the transcript of the press conference, although I also heard it live. Both his comments about Bleach and UV light therapy made me CRINGE. But I decided to fact check, and found out there was a team at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles testing UV light inside the body for gastrointestinal pathogens asking for emergency permission to modify the catheter for Covid use. Fact Check = True. I then checked the ingredients in Bleach, and found that the base ingredients has been used for 100 years by Dentist to clear infection after root canal, and a 1-3% solution in a spay might be worth at least testing. Fact = Partly True. I did not vote for Trump 2016, he was never on my radar, I am not into the "celebrity" thing, but when it appeared he would win the nomination, I researched, and found he was REAL, and had substance, if not depth. I still did not think he could win, but he did. I've found myself agreeing with his policies and deeds, so discount his asinine personality, and pay attention to what he does, not what he says. I think mature voters should do that. He gets my vote, and also because I think the Democrats, my party, have not played fair in 4 years and do not deserve the office. Thanks for the civil engagement, people call here have called me fake, and empty account, and a liar. Seems no room for moderates to engage these days.

@gusescobedo Nixon, the biggest crook in American history, and a Republican, signed the landmark 1972 Clean Water Act which continues to be the primary law protecting the nation’s fresh surface water. Ronald Reagan, a Republican, signed legislation that fixed the Ozone hole, he he was a liar, too. Life is full of subtlety and nuance, I don't base my voting decisions on RAH RAH RAH, for one side or the other. America is in a balancing act, and the Green New Deal will throw us out of balance, which is the goal of many who are promoting it, like you. Your unicorn "return to the garden" utopia is in practical terms a dystopia. We can moderate our actions, design solutions, but we don't need to commit Harakiri in the process. I don't believe Trump's metaphorical rhetoric, he's an ass, but I can see the action, and I approve. You don't, so we disagree, that's what the vote is for, but the Dems showed bad faith and did not except the last election, so I no longer trust them. Trump 2020.

@annajorgensen1627 I am a Jew, and understand, and often fear those who make symbols of people. We've seen it here in the U.S. with George Floyd and others. Yes, symbols are often used in the service of malevolence. As you, I do my due diligence, but perhaps focus on other areas which concern me as an American. America has a solid framework that I trust in, but it's not Trump chipping away at it, quite the contrary. I believe we are still in an age of the Westphalian Peace, with nation/states as the best political form we can have. Perhaps someday humans will evolve past that, but not yet, and just hoping and imagining it's true, is foolish. Europe waged a 30 years war, which was more like 100 years, based on religious symbols, one, a single G-dhead, the other, with Three. America learned from that horror, and I want the framework against that to stand. Trump is not an ideologue, he is "in the moment", and extenstialist of the first order, although he wouldn't know what that means. He is not religious, either, and has no pretensions in that regard, and it's unkind to think so.

@annajorgensen1627 I am 65 and have health issues, and pre-existing conditions will not be touched. I've not paid any attention to Trump in the past, but as President have watched closely. I find it difficult to listen to him, no doubt, but I agree with the policies and actions this administration has taken. I was facing the Obama Care tax because I was self-employed, as were many of my friends, it was terrible, and Trump stopped that tax, and gave me a tax break which added $1500 to my yearly income, and I'm middle-class. My retirement account, which is not huge, has increased 67% under Trump, and if it stays stable, will provide for me in retirement. I am so afraid of a Biden win, am considering cashing out of my equity position and sitting on the cash, as are many other small investors who fear a Biden/Harris win. Sorry, I don't see what you see, and in my neighborhood in Los Angeles County, I can't put a Trump sign in my window, because I'd get a brick through it. It's the extremes from both sides pushing in, and I don't want to see the new-left have power in the House, the Senate, the Presidency, and the Court. that would be very, very bad. I don't see the same issue with the GOP today, and remember, I am a registered Democrat in California, and have been a social activist since 1971 when I first marched against the war in Vietnam. Trump is not "evil", he's just a human being, with a personality disorder, to be sure, but I know many high functioning people just like him who are not evil, just a pain to deal with.
