@Reason10 All through Trump's term, our Covid per capita death rate was DOUBLE that of countries like Canada & Germany, resulting in about 550,000 Covid deaths under Trump.
If Trump had handled Covid as well as, say, Justin Trudeau, we'd have had 275,000 FEWER DEATHS! Put another way, Trump's mis-management of Covid cost more deaths than THREE Viet Nam wars!! Three Viet Nams in a SINGLE YEAR, not spread out over ten years like the actual war!!!
Sure, Covid came from outside. And different leaders in different countries managed it differently. Trump's piss-poor Covid management is made clear by the relative per capita death rates.
[quote]"I look at it this way," Birx told CNN's Chief Medical Correspondent Sanjay Gupta. "The first time, we have an excuse. There were about 100,000 deaths that came from that original surge. All of the rest of them, in my mind, could have been mitigated or decreased substantially."[/quote]

Oh, and let's not forget the 22,000,000 lost jobs, also primarily due to Trump's botched Covid response!!

UPDATE for @fanuc2013 You don't have the full quote. [quote]“That’s all I hear about now. Turn on television, ‘Covid, Covid, Covid Covid Covid.’ A plane goes down, 500 people dead, they don’t talk about it. ‘Covid Covid Covid Covid.’ By the way, on November 4, you won’t hear about it anymore,” Trump said on Oct 24, 2020. [/quote] Could he have been any more wrong???
The ONLY thing that slowed the flow of refugees across our southern border in the past few years was Covid. Trump's famous wall obviously is doing NOTHING because the majority come to legal entry points and request asylum. And our cumbersome immigration laws make it very slow to deal with such requests. What we need most is immigration reform. But Congress balks every time.
[quote] and the probable terrorist acts to come?[/quote] Do you know of any terrorist acts that have killed 275,000 innocent Americans in one year?? Sorry, but there have been NO disasters in the past 100 years worse than Trump's botching of our pandemic response.
Remember how Trump proudly dissolved Clinton's cabinet level pandemic response team in 2018? He had his chance. he botched it terribly.
@ElwoodBlues Covid, Covid , Covid! That can be argued until the end of time, with all kinds of statistics pushed this way or that! Aren't you worried about all the illegals pouring into this country, with the financial burden that goes along with them and the probable terrorist acts to come?
@ElwoodBlues Biden is the worst president in history. His record is the WORST in history. He inherited an expanding economy from Trump and turned us into SOMALIA. Trump is the most qualified person on the planet to be president today. Only someone who hates America would vote for UNELECTED JOE. He actually made Jimmy Carter look presidential by comparison, and I didn't think that was possible.
@Reason10 I agree with everything you said about Biden and I certainly intend to vote for Trump .But in a perfect world,Ron Desantis would have been my first choice for nominee.
@SevIsPamprinYouAlways Well,you can post all of the memes you want,it's not going to change the fact:you have your views and I have mine.Feel free to post another if it somehow amuses you.🤷
