Mr. Belding

Maybe not a huge deal for the average american "healthwise" but

I haven't seen 16%, but 14.8% among 80+ and 8% for 70+ is pretty significant.

That's awful, but I think it's comparable (or better) than mortality rates in

I don't think it is because they don't understand. They see a story that will

.... in an arm wrestle? Yes.

He has hinted at running against him

Iman23

All the CB freaker outers need to watch this.

Mr. Belding

2/27/20 9:54am

VERY true take.

Great video, but it's several weeks old. A lot has changed since then.
