69. That's true but it doesn't mean anyone should be happy about it.

As I said in my post above, someone here on DU said they'd be grateful if the virus sickened or killed a bunch of conservatives. That's a disgusting thing to say. Not one person on the thread except me called that person out... though someone else did defend them.

Evidently some people think it's okay to wish conservatives dead. But of course, if conservatives wish for progressives to get sick and die, they're awful, horrible people. Nothing hypocritical about that at all...

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
