And that 2 million figure you talk about was how many would die without govt doing anything about it (a hypothetical).


So when did CNN report that Trump engaged and prevented the 2 million number from happening.

At some point everyone thought this was a China problem just like H1N1, SARS, Swine, etc.

So complete failure number was 2 million deaths, and Trump is/was a complete failure at 150k deaths?

No one is gonna say 150 is below par because it's insensitive.

Did IKE botch WW2 because we had 400k deaths instead of 300k or 0? Why can't we just change our expectations after the event to judge him.

.

Why would they, when there is and was no national strategy and everything fell to governors (in a cynical bid to get blue states to “fail”)?

"I alone can fix it." - DJT 2016
"No, I don't take any responsibility at all." - DJT 2020

This is what happens when a reality-tv personality is given a real leadership position, apparently.

So glad we added politics. When does religion come in, need a little time to pop the popcorn.

Well, soon we will find out what a racist pedophile with dementia can do. Hopefully he will do better than the tv personality.

Trump hatred has almost become a religion of its own. But to me, religion is more interesting than politics so I’ll take the thread drift if it will get us to meaningful dialogue.
