    Thomas Edison failed 10,000 times when trying to make the light bulb. :laugh: what a loser!

    False equivalency. A single instance of testing a filament for a light bulb is NOT a business. Oh, and how many businesses did Edison bankrupt? Technically, one, in 1894: "The phonograph was initially marketed as a business dictation machine. Entrepreneur Jesse H. Lippincott acquired control of most of the phonograph companies, including Edison's, and set up the North American Phonograph Co. in 1888. The business did not prove profitable, and when Lippincott fell ill, Edison took over the management. In 1894, the North American Phonograph Co. went into bankruptcy, a move which allowed Edison to buy back the rights to his invention." Try again. :laugh:

        Dude, you really need to get that hard on for Trump checked out. It's been longer than 4 hours.

          His exact words: "Every time there's a good country, they like to compare, 'cause we've done an incredible job. You look at our mortality rate, you look at all the things, but they like to compare us to others, so they were talking about New Zealand. New Zealand! It's over! It's over for New Zealand. Everything's gone. They're beautiful. They had a massive breakout yesterday." "Yesterday" on the day he gave this speech refers to NZ's FIVE new cases. 5 new cases is 0.000001% of the population. A total of 11 cases in the last 3 months. In the US, the 46,000 new cases we had on that day is 0.00014% of the population. Over the last 3 months, we've added over 1.6M cases, or 0.005% of the population. We're the ones with the massive outbreak, not NZ. Who's taking this out of context?

          If the US's cases increased at the same rate as NZ that would be 200,000 new cases, so NZ's rate is increasing at a rate 20 times more than the US's rate. Funny how comparing massive countries with small ones is only a valid strategy when it makes Trump look bad.

              You're seriously going to go that route? The "rate of increase" over a couple days is all you've got? Over the last few days, NZ went from 0, to 6, to 5 new cases. In the US, we went from 37240, to 39794, to 43798 daily new reported cases. So, in NZ's case, the daily reported cases is declining, where in the US, they are going up. Funny how you'll twist the numbers in any way to make Trump look good.

                No, I'm using your own arguments against you to show you how ridiculous they are.

                  Wow. You're failing at it. TDS is the syndrome where Trump supporters will go to any lengths to defend him, not accuse him. Would you be going through the same lengths is Hillary was in office and had these numbers? I wouldn't change a thing on my side. I'd be denouncing her all the same if this was the result of her response.

                    You were quite exacerbated by my stats so I'd say it worked quite well.

                      By your invalid stats. If you're just here to get under the skin of people, you might want to find a new hobby. Yours is rather disgusting and pointless to anyone else except yourself.
