The number continue to drop!

Right on...

We like seeing the numbers dropping.

Maybe we reached our peak at the end of January.

So far so good.

Of course, this is no time to relax our efforts.

If we want the numbers to keep falling we have to keep doing everything we can.

Maybe even more, because the newer more virulent strains are here, and doubling every 10 days.

Something to think about when considering if we can relax...

Right on!

The numbers continue to fall.

Deaths jumped up to 1700 yesterday, but even that much is less than it had been.

It still looks like we saw our peak about a week after President Biden was inaugurated, and things have totally turned around.

Hello Darth,



There was a reason the Trump administration wasn't able to give the Biden transition team any information on their vaccine plan.

Fauci disagrees with that. Not surprising since it’s a slam on Fauci.

Shouldn’t Trump get some credit for setting Biden up with these good COVID numbers?

No. Trump didn't lift a finger to do anything about COVID. Instead he denied the threat and made it worse.

He held super-spreader events.

But the fact remains Trump handed the COVID crisis off to Biden to where all Biden needs to do is manage the vaccine distribution and/or not screw things up.

I could hardly disagree more strongly.

Trump didn't hand anything off. He refused to even meet with Biden or attend the inauguration. He refused to commit to a peaceful transition of power. The results of his denials were infamously deadly.

First he denied that coronavirus was going become a devastating impact on the nation, then he tried to pretend it wasn't so bad, then he denied that he lost the election.

Trump totally botched the job.

It is mind boggling that Republicans still support him. He is a total loser.

Republicans have shot themselves in the butt by sticking with him. The only ones who don't know it are the Trump supporters, who are totally out of touch with reality and under his spell of BS propaganda.

Not that I don’t appreciate your Trump rant but you never actually addressed the point lol.

The numbers are going down; Biden is inheriting COVID on the downswing; therefore; Trump largely won the COVID war.

Straight forward logic.

That's only logical to a mind which begins with the precept that Trump can do no wrong; (which, of course, is incorrect.) When that is made an immovable object, and everything else is bent around it, then logic says up becomes down, left is right, and somehow Trump did not totally botch the leadership role during a deadly crisis. The only problem is: he did.

Can’t escape *the fact* Trump is handing COVID off to Biden on the downswing lol.

Given that fact, only logical conclusion is the COVID war was largely won under Trump. It’s up to Biden to finish the job. I wish him luck.

And you couldn't name one specific thing Trump had done to cause the dramatic increase in vaccinations we've seen since Biden took office.

Except for your suspicion that Dem governors were "trying harder."

Facts. They're awesome.
