The US has now reached 700,000 deaths :(

"Reaching 700,000 deaths is a tragic and completely avoidable milestone. We had the knowledge and the tools to prevent this from happening, and unfortunately politics, lack of urgency and [b]mistrust in science[/b] got us here" [i]John Brownstein, an epidemiologist at Boston children’s hospital[/i]

And why do we have this mistrust in science...?

Well done, Trump. You did this.

Trump is the ring leader for those who chose not to get vaccinated.

@SW-User yes and will take the booster as soon as it’s available to me
SW-User
@GJOFJ3 Good.

@GJOFJ3 yes through warp speed. But most of Trumps followers won't take it.

The Trump Coronavirus Dead will be Trump's lasting shame and legacy. A hundred years from now, his failed four year term will still be studied and analyzed to see how someone so grossly incompetent and unfit for office could end up winning an election and then killing so many Americans due to his deliberate malfeasance.

@Strictgram I condemn violence by anyone. That includes antifa, BLM, the Capitol insurrectionists, Kyle Rittenhouse, Ashli Babbitt, and anyone who commits violence. Happy now?

Now you do the same.
SW-User
@windinhishair Just leave it. You @Strictgram will twist your words to suit their narrative and claim victory. Just remember:

And, even worse, the crowding of hospitals by covid patients raised the death rate due to other causes. The graph below compares weekly reported Covid deaths against reported other causes of death, against a baseline average of death rates from the previous 5 years. It only covers the first two pandemic spikes, but the pattern is clear - Covid increases ALL forms of death

SW-User
@ElwoodBlues strange that a factual graph receives a downvote. Truth hurts, doesn’t it, Trumpettes? 🙂

His influence is what's still driving new cases. There's an alternate universe out there. A death cult.

But no end of life, disease, accidents, etc.

Your post is so disingenuous.
SW-User
What a load of shit.

@SW-User Hey there! Hope you are having a good weekend!

@SW-User ridiculousness 🙄😅
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
My for a guy that has been out of office for more months than he had to fight the 'disease' Trump certainly was an abject failure. I wonder why Biden didn't solve the problem since most of the deaths have occurred under his watch. Hmmm. You just aren't that bright are you? Racists never are very bright. Witness Biden.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@SW-User Edited or not it is still a true statement. You don't understand. Your vax brain won't let you understand. A common ailment among the vaxed. Sadly.
SW-User
@hippyjoe1955 It does indeed. It shows that no one can understand just how deluded, bigoted, misogynistic and racist you actually are.

But as I said, no-one is listening to you anymore, including me. So therefore, feel free to have the last word and feel as though you've "won".

I won't be responding; I'll just have a good laugh at you instead, as will a lot of other people on this site ;)

@SW-User Says the guy who does all the hating on here. Now that is funny!!!! Run along son. You are dull as dishwater just not as smart.

@nightjourney Biden may be in charge now, but a LOT more people would have had the vaccine if it hadn't been for Trump trashing science. Fact.

Amazing isn't it?

Everyone quit dying of everything else, now they only die of covid... 🤔
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
This could have been prevented . We knew who the at risk groups were from the get go. They should have been quarantined and vaxed at the earliest opportunity possible .
Politicos did what they do and played politics.
Blaming it on Orange is naive .
Orange didn’t kill the elderly in nursing homes here in NYC , Cuomo did.
SW-User
@AthrillatheHunt No, I am blaming it on Trump. He is the one who attacked the science from the start. He is the one who even denied the existence of Covid to begin with.
And yet they complain nothing of polio which killed less than 3,500 in 1952 at its worst among 58,000 case reported in that year. Bet they have their shots for that.
SW-User
@canusernamebemyusername OK I think I have severely misunderstood your post, and for that I apologise
SW-User
@Ynotisay I think I have seriously misunderstood his comment. I'm sorry. Its late here
Ynotisay · M
@SW-User I had a feeling. No worries. And a high five for offering that apology to the poster. Well done. 👍
Oster1 · M
This is just wrong.
SW-User
@Oster1 No it isn't
Oster1 · M
@SW-User What ever.
Platinum · M
No he never, 700,000 out of 327 million is no worse than many countries....its a pandemic and it would have made no difference who run the country
@Platinum Here's a post I made near the end of the Trump admin:
[quote]Comparing Trump's pandemic response to other nations like Canada and Germany, we can see that other leadership had per capita deaths less than HALF ours. Conclusion: Trump's terrible pandemic response doubled our death rate, costing 200,000 excess American lives.[/quote]

And another:
[quote] It's hard to avoid connecting our MUCH higher infection rate with Trump's downplaying it at the beginning, politicizing mask wearing and non-stop lying about it. Covid has cost our economy several trillion dollars, and many of those bucks stop with Trump.[/quote]
SW-User
@Platinum Yes it would. More people would have had the vaccine if it hadn't been for Trump trashing the science. Why do you think FAR more Democrats than Republicans have been vaccinated? Why do you think FAR more unvaccinated people are dying? WHY is it that cases are spiking in Southern states with Republican governors? Sorry, facts are facts.

Trumps out let it go everytime a secratary bows her boss do you jump up point and yell god damb you clinton god damb you

@zork0000 that was funny admit it lol although probably below you in your self importance bur still funny lol
Deaths from Medical Malpractice is way up there and we are told to 'Trust the Science'
SW-User
@Robynthebeautiful Deflection noted.

Can you provide evidence that deaths for malpractice is “way up there”? I also assume that you don’t bother seeing doctors because of this?

@SW-User And?

Besides, that's nowhere near true. 30 some thousand in a year in the US.

Its sad. Its unfortunate. Nobody saw it coming. But it did. I believe this is a lesson that we all have learned hopefully.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Zonuss Talk about an indoctrinated fool--you actually believe the virus was planned in advance to wipe out thousands? What an idiot you are. You can't fix stupid, so I guess you are stuck with it. Which biblical passage are you using for this delusion?

@whowasthatmaskedman Trump was the initial ringleader, when he initially denied the virus was a problem, and continued to do so for months, wishing it was over instead of doing something about it. But you're right, he had lots of help from his Cult, and the denial of science continues to this day.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@windinhishair No Biblical influence here about Covid. Just going by what is happening out here in the real world. You know the place that doesn't exist to boxed in overzealous idealogues like yourself. 🙂
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Zonuss You're not doing what you say, because you ignore facts and data on covid in the real world, paying attention to only that information thats supports a warped and demented view. You are still entitled to it, but don't pretend it is reality.

@SomeMichGuy And you'll decide what's germane and rational right? Leftists can't stand to hear speech that differs from their own. They believe in speech suppression and seek to allow free speech only to those who agree with their warped views. You can't stand that I never initiate strong language but am not reluctant to respond in kind.
SW-User
@Strictgram We can say exactly the same thing about you right-wingers, except exacerbated 100-fold.
@Strictgram Lol I decide what is germane & rational to & for me.

Free speech--you do it a lot. Free speech doesn't mean you get to control how people react to it, judge you by those words, etc.

I don't mind people speaking their minds, but opinions which have no basis in facts are built on nothing.

You only shout...in fact, you and @BigGuy2 are akin in that your comments, like Macbeth's view of Life, are
