Yes, the guy who is the President is in the White House...traditionally.
Kinda goes without saying. Are you feeling unwell, or confused, today?
Quick review shows that, for you, it did need to be said.
but otherwise, are those my only options?

You’re just experiencing your usual difficulty with the English language. Not that your handicap is unexpected here. : )

Kinda like that other thread where you blew it regarding the Trump lawsuits that contained affidavits.

Now, what are the chances you even get a revolver?

For the record, i don't think the virus is a hoax, but the hysteria for another seasonal flu is questionable.
The more compelling discussion is for how a foreign made virus was weaponized and let loose on the population.

Yeah well, the purpose of this roulette illustration is to demonstrate the actual serious nature of this crisis we face. So therefore a conscientious person might want to put some extra effort into making sure that their intel is comprehensive. Cause, see, you may be ok with taking the odds shot at your own head. I'm more concerned with what that bullet is going to hit after it passes through your head, as it may travel a fair distance due to lack of resistance.

Heh. Yeah, subs is the kind of guy who is never in danger when his mind is blown, because the inside of his skull is outside the blast radius.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

Well, it reads as rendering the risks absurd. Maybe try another method- "illustration" may not be your thang.

Which part do you believe is exaggerated SG.? The math? Remember I granted myself a self pardon for that. Is it my asserted odds of %5 chance of catching it (on average) whenever one steps out? You liken it to the common cold. What do you believe the odds are of you catching the cold from Lester, who used the black line machine right before you?
