The Trump Presidency - how I stopped worrying and learned to love the Hair



So where does the Bush Administration come into this? He disappeared under their watch, so they had to be involved too, right?

Giuliani and the New York Post Are Pushing Russian Disinformation. It’s a Big Test for the Media.

With its new Biden story, Murdoch’s tabloid is a useful idiot for Vladimir Putin.

Putting this here to not politicize the COVID thread: There's a pattern of local spikes in covid infection after Trump rallys emerging.


OK, so I know that statistics aren't often black and white and there's often a bigger picture, but here's there findings:

Does that mean that there's 7 out of 14 where it didn't happen, making is just as likely it doesn't? I KNOW there's some stupid simple "X doesn't mean Y" thing I'm missing, but I've not been sleeping well, so forgive me.

Not quite, 7 out of 14 doesn't imply "it's a coin toss whether 'Trump Rally' causes 'Covid Outbreak'".

Simplifying, you have the overall set of all US cities, assuming they were all comparable. Out of all those cities, some experience outbreaks, so over time you can estimate what fraction of cities "organically" has an outbreak.
For a small subset of those US cities, ie the 14 where Trump held rallies, it seems we know that this fraction is 0.5.

Assuming all this were comparable in such a simplified way, it'll come down to what that organic fraction is.
If outbreaks happen frequently then there is a reasonable chance that 7 out of those 14 cities just happened to have an outbreak a few weeks after a Trump Rally.
If outbreaks happen less frequently then it's very likely that the rally causes outbreaks.



Converting to even simpler terms, how likely is it that a die is manipulated if you roll it 14 times, and get a 1 in 7 of those 14?
Well, that depends on the die :tease:
If it's a two-sided die (coin) then 7 1s don't really indicate manipulation.
If it's a d20 then 7 1s out of 14 are very unlikely unless the d20 is manipulated.
 
This whole can of worms has blown up again, timing is a bit suspicious -

Sorry, Donald, but between you, Fauci and the experts on diseases, there is only one idiot, and he does not have any workable knowledge of anything medicine-related.
 
Watching that unfold was fantastic, talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
