    I feel this needs to be stated: the 3 year old definitely already had cavities.

    The classic “detecting problems is what causes them” fallacy.

      Very rough quote of the former “leader of the free world”, ‘stop testng for covid and we will have less cases’.

        I believe he actually said “we have so many cases because we do so much testing”. Actually I think he said them both, what I quoted and then followed with yours. What an ultra-maroon.

          He also said “stop reporting the death counts, it’s making me look bad”

          And the infamous “it’s no worse than flu, it will be gone by spring [2020]…”

          Oh and that drinking bleach would cure it.

            Oh right, I totally forgot about the suggestion to shine a very bright light inside the body, or use bleach. Fucking dip shit.

          • He also endorsed ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, he said monoclonal antibodies were a miracle cure, he said warm weather would make COVID go away, he said COVID was a hoax by Democrats, he said one day it would miraculously disappear, he tasked his lead scientists with bringing UV light inside the body, he bragged that he would have been a great scientist because he had an uncle at MIT, he insisted on a mid-pandemic Rose Garden party were people couldn’t wear masks, he got Herman Cain killed…

            It’s just such a long list of complete idiocy.

                There is/was a subreddit called the Herman Cain award for covidiots that died of covid after denying it or denying sensible public health measures.

      “We need to stop the testing so we don’t have so many COVID cases.”
