Trump is responsible for a global pandemic that originated in Wuhan China?

Just as responsible as Biden is for global supply chain issues that started in 2020.

Is that a yes or a no?

That's the point of my post. If you honestly can't draw a parallel, I can't help you.

Why is it so difficult to answer a yes or no question?

I could see someone with a room temperature IQ would think that. But I'm betting you know who everyone meant.
At least their women are beautiful, unlike the toothless inbred women that you have in your sh17hole town.
Go on and eat squirrels for dinner and don't worry about world politics, word of advice.

How is he not responsible for all the spending from the Cares3 checks, the infrastructure bill, and enhanced child tax credits? His own party had to tell him no on round 3 of major spending during supply chain shortages.

He clearly poured money into the economy creating demand, during supply shortages.

Even student loan payment suspension dumps money into the economy. Everyone is not dirt floor poor, and they redirect the spending from the payments because even the interest is not accruing.

Who went to college and would make payments on a loan that doesn’t charge interest, and won’t require a “catch up” payment.

The “woe to me” hardship is abused at every opportunity.

Well, if you think of the legacies as Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the ULCCs as those annoying furry little mammals, that’s just about what did happen 66-67 million years ago. I wasn’t there personally, but I bet there were a lot of furloughs though. After dominating for millions of years, the dinosaurs were just less able to adapt to cr@ppy times..

But if the asteroid is big enough, nobody survives. What’s left would just be another asteroid belt spread out between Venus and Mars with a few tens of thousands of Boeing’s and Airbus mixed in among the rubble.

Funny you say that. The only memory I have of being in the Ukraine was the surprising lack of teeth in people. That was 20 years ago, though.

IIRC there are no ELE objects in the solar system which would come anywhere near Earth in the near/mid term. Certainly nothing big enough to turn the planet into an asteroid belt. Remotely possible there's something orbiting outside the plane of the ecliptic which would be harder to spot, but the way solar systems form most of the big stuff stays in the original disc plane.

The statistically important threat is city-killers.

Even more remote (waaaay, waaaay remote) but theoretically possible that something from interstellar space could come flying out of left field. But there's just not much of anything larger than a hydrogen atom out there.
