    I agree. Everyone is used when discussing a group of people. If Alan had said ‘vaccination doesn’t protect everyone’ I wouldn’t have an issue. But he said it doesn’t protect anyone. And that’s wrong and BS. And deserves to be called out.

    Thanks for calling me out on that JP, I can always depend on you to keep my attempts of "misinformation" on any subject interesting.

    Watching election returns, one commentator said that the only race influenced by covid policy was in Florida. So it appears the country largely has moved on.

    But boy do folks love DeSantis. It was the first race I saw called.

    The Republicans would be smart to dump Trump and move on to DeSantis.

    But DeSantis isn't surrounded by the mythology that envelops Trump--like he's the second coming of Christ, for example.

    I agree. Jane put it perfectly. It's a real mythology of Trump as Golden Boy, King Midas, P.T. Barnum, and the Pied Piper to the Promised Land all rolled into one. His ability to mesmerize and inspire is pretty impressive. That's what makes him scary.

    I have to leave the room if I even hear his voice. Absolutely baffles me how he has pulled one over on his devotees.

    He is touching something in a lot of people. Not you or me, for sure.
