He’s already been twice removed from a job because he wouldn’t follow the rules, i cannot see him not fighting to stay the nominee no matter what.

He would really be disruptive in the Senate, i really do wonder, if he’s going to be a pain in the rear end most of his time there, would Republicans just as soon have Jones and live with it. Jones is far more liberal than Roy Moore and would probably have a liberal voting record, but being from Alabama, you’d think he’d at least sometimes vote with Republicans.

It’s unclear what effect that [option] would have. Would there be another election? Would she [Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey] appoint someone? Would the second place winner automatically win? That’s an issue the courts would have to deal with.

It isn't easy to switch drugs, especially when you're on a serious drug like Actemra, you surely don't want to be bouncing around.

Fear of being the target of an angry meltdown becomes added to the list of things already feared and avoided.

Attributing seemingly inexplicable outbursts to pandemic stress makes our world seem more understandable, predictable and therefore safer because we can anticipate and avoid threatening situations.

People will emerge from the pandemic at different rates, some will exuberantly resume their pre-pandemic lives whereas other people will be more circumspect, taking more time to become comfortable in resuming air travel or going to public spaces.

People value their freedoms, they may become distressed or indignant or morally outraged when people are trying to encroach on their freedoms.

On the one hand it creates increased anxiety among those who doubt the truth is being told, and on the other it increases the number of people who think the whole thing is overblown.

On the one hand,( the response is) understandable, but on the other hand it's excessive, we can prepare without panicking.
