Not everyone on this board agrees with yours. Maybe most do. But, as a moderator, you know that the rules of this board forbid expressing them. There are plenty of internet sites that will allow you to vent your political opinions. Please follow the rules of this board.
Everything is political. Arguing that anyone pointing out Trump's (or any other politician's) actions and mistakes in response to COVID-19 is forbidden is very political. Would you prefer that we just say POTUS so that you don't have to feel anyone is being political in critiquing him?
It really isn't that hard to keep your political views off this board. I doubt if you would feel the same if a member consistently posted articles and made comments about all of the good things the federal gov't is doing to combat this virus, or how Trump's approval ratings for handling this virus have gone up. Please keep political opinions off the Cardboard.
Well pointing to approval ratings would be mindless partisan politics so I get your point there. But no reasonable person could argue the federal government is doing a bang up job. Feel free to tell me what political opinion I've shared that wouldn't be just as valid if say we were criticizing a mayor or governor for the same so I know what you're talking about. If you're saying to simply not criticize POTUS for what POTUS does or says then I think that the restriction is absurd.
