If you will only accept data from one single source, or if accepting it from multiple sources is too complex for you, here you go:

Population of Europe as of Sunday, August 2, 2020: 747,678,224 (source- https://www.worldometers.info/world-...pe-population/)

Population of the United States as of Sunday, August 2, 2020: 331,183,579 (source- https://www.worldometers.info/world-...us-population/)

Total Covid 19 Cases on day 136 after first hitting 10,000 cases:
Europe- 2,717,811 (source- https://www.worldometers.info/corona...rope-usa-cases)
United States- 4,813,637 (source - https://www.worldometers.info/corona...rope-usa-cases)

Total Covid 19 deaths on day 138 since first hitting 100 deaths:
Europe- 199,382 (source- https://www.worldometers.info/corona...ope-usa-deaths)
United States- 158,365 (source- https://www.worldometers.info/corona...ope-usa-deaths)

Those are the same sources, with data taken on the same date, at the same point in the outbreak within each region. Is that simple enough for you?

BTW- I had to use days 136 and days 138 respectively because Europe has been dealing with Covid 19 for a longer time than has the United States. The total numbers, as of August 2, 2020:

Europe Cases (Day 147 since first reaching 10,000 cases): 2,898,497
USA Cases (Day 136 since first reaching 10,000 cases): 4,813,637

Europe Deaths (Day 151)- 203,794
USA Deaths (Day 138)- 158,365

Same Source as Above.

Please provide data from a source which shows the USA handling this better than Europe, as was the original claim made in post #7 of this thread "Next, I don't know WTF is going on in Europe and frankly, all I know is they have worse numbers than us."
