I think they likely just held it to not impact it one way or another.

Plus Pfizer was not part of Project Warp Speed so clearly not on board with the administration on Covid.

The funny part is they have had to change the number several times, and this makes Lara Trump mad!

Idk, I was assured in BFI that Trump pumped tons of money into Pfizer to "bring it home asap"

I've never known Trump supporters to lie so I guess we have to accept that there are different opinions on the issue and objective fact does not exist.

The Party of Davos taking a victory lap.....

I am not really sure how they went down that path. I know nothing of a pre bannon breitbart.

Breitbart, according to Wikipedia, started as a right alternative to huffington post. When bannon showed up he directed them hardcore alt right. Bannon is a horrible person who has studied into his horribleness.



Seems breitbart let him go that way because it made him money.

Although the money thing is weird as Robert Mercer has dumped a ton of money into Breitbart and the reason bannon ultimately got exiled.

The stock market was still going up today. The vaccine announcement is the monster share of it, but it was going up because lol trump.

Idiot trump media flaks are trying to give credit to Project Warp Speed, forcing Pfizer to announce they had absolutely nothing to do with Trump’s program at all.

Weird trump never mentioned the huge pharmaceutical companies who did not join up with his Covid administration.

How I red it was Pfizer didn't take R&D money, but made a purchase agreement with the government for 100M doses, pending FDA approval. Trumpsters in my social media are obviously now saying how this changed the vaccine from probably year 2192 to 2020 and how "Biden will now claim Trump's vaccine program as his". How do they think that 100M doses of corona vaccine would not be sold instantly anyways, and not see the irony after Trump claimed all the inherited rising economy as only his, and how he often claims Obama-era laws as his, is pretty standard.

Though in reality Trump did help with the timetable, as these vaccine trials depend on how soon do the test subjects get infected..

You're just as capable as anyone else of looking at a YTD graph of the various indices.

The DJI is just now up to its pre-COVID high. S&P was in the same boat.

You can be an annoying **** without wrongfully insisting that today's market rally is about Trump. Dare I say just stay in your lane and stick to the ad hominem stuff. Now is not the time to strain yourself.

Pretty sure that one could see that futures were up prior to the Pfizer announcement, but sure, keep insisting it's not about Trump.

Is this one of those - if the market is down it is because Trump lost, but if the market is up it is because Trump was president situations? Those are fun!

Stop the count!

Count those votes!

I actually have it on good authority that futures were up because Santa Claus is coming soon.

Not arguing with your general point, but "by accident" is pretty lol. Nobody who has been around here for more than a couple of months posts in the wrong forum about politics by accident.

We already know conservatives base their reality on various fairytales

iirc there was an nvg corona thread at one point along with several other corona threads in other forums. never really checked which one was which when replying and caught a ban for posting politics in it. but yeah, generally I agree with your overall point as well

I dodged a ban in the LC ATF, suggested making it a politics palooza. Started with a vid predicting Trump landslide (400+)

Thank you for pointing me to Mercer. He is or was the biggest money behind trump. I don't think it's weird.
If anything it makes more sense.

You see this guy is the biggest sponsor. I just did a little reading about him. In one of the articles they mention articles on breitbart talking about the issue of birth control, saying you are only a good jew if you make more babies than the muslims to keep them in check. Wtf?? Seriously. About youre not good jews if you don't do this or that. That's what you get when you Google him.

It's all religion and money.

Mercer sold off breitbart, but only bc he was forced.

So Trump just fired the secretary of defence. Interesting times

I would hope (assume?) everyone has read it, but if not 1984 is a really good book. Was very entertaining when I read it in highschool. Then it was scary when I read it in 2016. Recently picked up again to get a new perspective on it after all that's happened these last 4 years. A lot of scary similarities.

Also very interesting to me how R's are aware of and even use the book as a critique on what they see as 'pc culture'. As if a culture of treating people with respect and not using racial slurs is what 1984 was warning us about. Crazy times

Trump fired Esper.

Just a reminder, Esper was one of the few in the White House that resisted sending active duty troops after protesters.

"Mercer has been under serious scrutiny over its role in bankrolling Cambridge Analytica's operation to improperly harvest information from over 50 million Facebook accounts to help Donald Trump win the 2016 presidential election."

So that's mercer. Lol

But Inso, as you've already told us:

You can't tell us it's not because of Trump, because for you to pretend like you know would be "voodoo nonsense". Thanks for playing!

Seems Ben Carson tested positive for the Vid after attending an election night party. Maybe Trump will help him get some of that special medical potions he took. Wonder how that party went.

I've been threatened with ban hammer in the BFI Covid thread despite only really replying to the over top politics posted by the TS Toothsayer who connects every win to Trump and says zero blame can be attributed.

If i get banned... i get banned. But if a thread starter himself is allowed to spam his own thread with politics, I am not going to stop doing so, no matter how loud they cry 'unfair'.
