Then why 90% instead of 100%?
I see the Cuomo bashers can’t resist. I wonder whether there is a 12 step recovery program for that addiction.
As Syag said, there’s a supreme irony in someone who can’t see a single thing good about Trump making that comment.
BTW, as of today I saw New York ranked 25.
I understood him to mean that he’s uncertain whether he’d have the courage.
If you had, you wouldn’t have compared it to שילוח הקן.
All moot, because it’s nowhere close to that.
I don’t think you understood his answer.
No, because according to most, it’s not applicable today for several reasons, besides what you referred to.
From Din.org.il:
המצוה להלחם בעמלק ולהכרית את זרעו, נחלקו בה ראשונים: יש סוברים, שהיא מצוה המוטלת על כלל הציבור, ואין כל יחיד ויחיד מישראל חייב בה (ראה: סהמ”צ לרמב”ם סוף מנין מצוות עשה; רי”פ פערלא ח”א עשה נט [דף רסא] בדעת הרס”ג). ויש סוברים, שהיא מצוה המוטלת על המלך (ראה: רמב”ן שמות יז טז; יראים סימן תלה; רד”ק שמואל א טו א; תועפות רא”ם על היראים שם בדעת הסמ”ג). לדעות אלו, הואיל וקיומה של מצוה זו הוא בדרך של מלחמה, הנעשית מעצם טבעה על ידי הציבור כולו ותחת הנהגתו של מלך, לא ניתן לצוות על כך כל יחיד מישראל (הר אפרים על המכילתא סו”פ בשלח. וראה חדושי הגרי”ז עה”ת [סטנסיל] אות קח, שאף הציבור אינם מחוייבים להלחם בכל עת, אלא על פי הוראת נביא). אחרים סוברים, שמלבד המצוה המוטלת על הציבור להלחם בעם העמלקי ולכלותו, יש חיוב לכל יחיד מישראל להמית מזרעו של עמלק, אם יזדמן לו הדבר שלא בדרך מלחמה (ראה: ספר החינוך, והר אפרים שם בדעתו; ישבב סופר סנהדרין [עמ’ קעז וקפא]).
That dodged the question, didn’t answer it.
solve this issue be separating them before shabbos
Then you might as well buy the regular paper on a roll and tear off sheets before Shabbos
Also, it should be noted that there was no dissent.
if he took money as president, he still has it
It has nothing to do with the money, the idea is not to allow a foreign government to influence policy.
They will try to market it so that people will think it tastes right
No, they’re going to market it differently.
Hmm?

It’s not a given, because perhaps there could be regression, but it’s not a very ambitious goal to merely maintain the same rate.
Charlie, you are overlooking Warp Speed.
Yes, he messed up on messaging, but overall I think saved more lives than he cost.
You make it sound like he’s responsible for all 400,000 deaths, as if nobody would have died of we had a different president, which is totally disingenuous of you.
And I don’t like (understatement) how he acted after the election, but it doesn’t negate all the good he did. Only someone with a huge liberal bias like you would ignore all of the positives.
why aren’t you taking this seriously.
Taking what seriously?
Jackk, I’m impressed.
I have no problem answering – Q anon are a bunch of loonies and yes, we landed on the moon – but the fact that you even ask is a deflection.

Can you answer why any religious person could ever support a rasha like Trump?
We didn’t vote for tzaddik. We voted for the person who would implement the best policies.
Not that Biden is exactly a lamed vovnik himself.
Most Jews voted for Biden.
Who cares
Most frum Jews in my neighborhood voted for Biden.
Who cares
For some reason, although your positions on Covid are basically reasonable, the way you argue them, with made up facts, distortions of others’ statements, and not really addressing or listening to what others are saying, you weaken your position immensely.
the dangers of the vaccine pale in comparison to the dangers of allowing COVID-19 to continue unchecked.
That might very well be true but it hasn’t been proven.
I certainly hope CA is right. If not, though…
1) Sure, why not?
2) If he’s not convicted in the Senate, it’s very likely he’ll run again. Whether he’ll win would probably depend on how the country is doing then.
Before I respond to that, can I ask a few unrelated question?
You can ask, it’s a free country, you’re allowed to dodge the comment and pretend you didn’t.
Anytime someone can’t find a way to argue an anti Trump opinion, they go straight to the response, “there you go, listening to the left wing media, blah blah blah”.
If the debate is about facts, and the source is the media, then it’s a fair argument.
I think that Trump pardoned himself and family privately, so when necessary, he will be able to refer to it.
Before or after he declared martial law?
To answer the OP, yes, I still would have voted for him.
Since there is considerable uncertainty and disagreement among legal scholars as to whether the Trumpkopf can pardon himself, he will likely resign the morning of January 20th, fly back to Mar a Lago, and while he is in the air, President (for 3 hours) Pence will issue a full and complete pardon of the FORMER President.
That prediction didn’t play out too well.
Biden appoints Jews in his cabinet, Blinken and Yellin.
As opposed to Trump who doesn’t want to have anything to do with Jews?
The Proud Boys, and lots of white supremist anti-Semitic groups, think Trump supports them. You Jews who think Trump is your friend, and those anti-Semites, cannot both be right.
Why would I care what they think? If they think Trump hates Jews they’re just delusional.
I am so glad I stocked up on pasta and tuna. I really hope this martial law is over before Pesach.
Avereimele, you are pulling the same old schtick of ignoring my main point to focus on some narische technical inaccuracies. Fine I was wrong about Eretz Yisroel. Nu, what about the vaccination program?
I sure hope the people doing research on the vaccines didn’t make such “narische technical inaccuracies”.
Basically, whoever said that is cherry picking a statistic which would make one think Trump won, although it does not really indicate that he did.
Is this true, if so how could he lose?
The election is not won by the victor of most counties…
So if more populous counties tend towards Biden (which makes sense, since urban areas tend to be Democrat-leaning), the overall vote could still go to Biden.
I don’t think a pregnant or nursing 28 year old with no antibodies should rush to get it.
I understand the concern, but isn’t covid a concern too?
I think anyone with antibodies should wait, and anybody without antibodies should get it as soon as they can.
I don’t understand why this isn’t the standard recommendation.
AAQ is right. If we are already giving a million doses per day, 100 million doses in 100 days isn’t a very ambitious goal.
You are responding to the wrong question.
The question was, “How would we know if there was fraud?”
The question you are answering is, “How do we know that there was no fraud?”
You know it won’t happen, but anyhow, why is it his last chance? Do you think he can’t once he’s no longer president?
