is because he’s caught up in an anti-science whirlwind? And how much of it -- I’m serious about this -- is because he just enjoys watching people get sick and die by the thousands?

It’s time, I think, to consider his motives. I’m sure the political motivations are complex. But, dammit, he’s an extremely well-educated and intelligent man who seems, clearly, unable to empathize with people’s suffering. Put another way, he cannot feel their pain. Put more specifically, it is as if he enjoys presiding over their pain and death and the subsequent agony of their surviving family members.

Anyone want to lay odds that he and his close associates have been vaccinated?

Why do these states think it is ok to force teachers into this covid cesspool.
I don't want to ever hear again about how the right values life!
