Well, look at it this way. If they let felons vote then half the Trump campaign would be given the franchise. None of whom, except for Roger, would vote for Trump I think.

That is sooo stupid. They have a right to protest the shooting but some have resorted to looting. I saw footage of looters cleaning out a Foot Locker store. That is a very dumb move.
Whatever point they're trying to make is completely erased by rioters and looters.

I did, and before that I helped reelect him. I still don't regret that decision, but I really enjoy making fun of him.

I saw this same article. Instead of immediately running to post it somewhere on social media, or in here, I did a little research.
First of all, Forbes is linking to a Politico article about a press release from the White House. So you have to go back to the source, which means you have to search mightily for links. Anyway, I did.
Link below is the press release. It does not say ending the covid pandemic. The word ending is not even IN the press release. Sure, Trump takes all kinds of credit for fighting it, but nowhere does it claim credit for ending it. When I read the original Politico article, they only had a link to the source document hosted on the White House website. Now they've added one (hosted on their own website), which says that. BUT IT WAS NEVER IN THE SOURCE MATERIAL RELEASED BY THE WHITE HOUSE. Maybe this is something the White House sent to the press as a teaser or something, but it is NOT in the release from the White House.
If you get to the bottom of the article from Politico, you will see "ending" the pandemic was not mentioned.
Here, read for yourself.... https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Trump-Administration-ST-Highlights-2017-2020.pdf
There is nothing to verify the authenticity of the Power Point link from Politico. There is no seal, attribution, or anything else. What is properly hosted, and cited, with the seal, and attributed to the White House does not have that. I'm not going to assume the link below is legit however. I read the report. It wasn't in there. And the link below didn't even exist until later. And yet Politico uses "ending" in quotes in their headline, and that was NOT in what the rest of the article was citing. Again, there's no way to prove the authenticity of the document from which they got their headline.

So it's shitcanned, like most stuff on the internet.

I'm sorry, but I was told...

The pandemic was going to end promptly on Nov. 4. No one said anything about a week early.
