Very cool for Amazon to wait until they got a President they liked before trying to help people not die of coronavirus. wtf?  

Or he understands the CDC roll out may delay his employees from getting the vaccines and wants to remind him HOW essential they are.  Everyone is fighting to get in line.

The tears are legendary today.

But I'm sure Amazon still offered, right?  

You're a tool.  Totally cool with a company with unlimited resources waiting until someone that aligned with them politically got into office to offer their assistance.  

Yes, Trump handled this poorly, but to act like there aren't countless other examples of people and businesses politicizing this pandemic at the cost of peoples' lives is beyond absurd.  

Now you can go ahead and tell me how I'm only salty because Biden is President, D-bag

And you're sure they didn't, right?

And you're sure Donald would even have taken the meeting, right?

Have you watched how he acts towards companies and hoards credit for any and everything over the last 4 years at all?

And no, you're only salty because you don't seem to have all the information.  At least that's what I believe (some like Kz are just too dumb to know he's being lied to).

I'm pretty damn sure, because if the letter had been sent and he subsequently turned them down, we would have heard about it.

uhh, yes, if an offer was made it would have obviously been made public, and if Trump was insane enough to turn it down it would have been used to bludgeon him politically.

Also, I'd like to point out that the guy who was contemplating why police didn't headshot someone earlier is calling people dumb. At least give it a couple of days before you start slinging that word around.  

How many people Biden kill today?

So much winning. I'm already tired. It's been just over 3 hours, how are we gonna endure more of this over the next 4 years?

One. A morbidly obese, senile resident of Palm Beach County, FL was left for dead by President Biden at noon EST.

The business community hated Trump so much that they wouldn't even work with him on the vaccine rollout.  Biden comes in and BAM!, they're on board.  It's good to finally have a president who does what he says.

They want to get their employees vaccinated asap. That means being prioritized under the essential workers designation. This is what they've been wanting since the EUA was granted. 

Quote

(Reuters) -Amazon.com Inc on Wednesday asked the U.S. government to prioritize essential workers including its warehouse, grocery store and data center staff for receipt of the COVID-19 vaccine, according to a letter seen by Reuters.

The request shows how the country’s second-biggest private employer, with 800,000 workers in the United States, considers the vaccine important to keeping its staff safe and its facilities open. The U.S. National Retail Federation made a similar request on the industry’s behalf Wednesday as well.

 

Administration of the vaccine began Monday in the United States, following emergency-use authorization last week. Early doses have been set aside for healthcare workers and nursing home residents.

Really has been entertaining to watch free-market conservatives screech about the actions of private companies over these last few weeks.

I have no idea if Amazon offered help to Trump, or if this is just a way to try and claim the workers are essential. 

But guess what? Consequences have actions. You spend 4 years attacking Bezos relentlessly, you don't get offered help by his company. Want to see who is to blame? Look at ex-President Numbnuts.

Wait, so it's not because Amazon waited for a President they liked???

Don't know, doesn't really seem to be their intention. Not like I'm gonna boycott them, but the notion that this was done on purpose just to "stick it to Trump" is hilariously uninformed. Then again, hilariously uninformed is basically a way of life for K-mart Kz.

We don't really have any evidence that Kz's a free-market conservative.  All we know is he's a big Trump supporter, he's sad, and he looks like this guy

I have to admit I was kind of tired, all the winning was to much, and I did not think I had anything left.

But the Trumpbot tears today have given me my second wind.

K Mart stock boys don't wear ties, and they sure as heck don't let them into the office.

Damn, he attacked Bezos that much? Man, Bezos letting a personal grudge get in the way of saving innocent lives now kind of looks like a total boss move to me.

Yes, if you are a free-market conservative, you aren't allowed to criticize the actions of private companies without being a total hypocrite.  

The logic in here is just *chef's kiss* it's perfect.

Oh ok - so they want to jump line instead so they can keep making trillions of dollars - still costing other Americans' lives in the process.  

Now that you point that out, it's MUCH BETTER!

Hmm.   No, they'd be making trillions of dollars regardless.  It's so they can deliver vaccines.  That'd be saving lives.
