I never said Trump called the virue itself a made up, make believe hoax. Everybody knew the virus existed, as confirmed my laboratory and medical proof
You are a liar.
Trump called the serious risk of the pandemic a Democratic hoax, and Trump and you consistently minimized and downplayed the risk

The Truth Does Not Need To Be Supported With Censorship.
What an article that OP link is:
"Finns live longer and are less likely to die in childhood or in giving birth than Americans. Danes earn roughly the same after-tax income as Americans, while working 20 percent less. They pay in taxes an extra 19 cents for every dollar earned. But in return they get free health care, free education from pre-school through university, and the opportunity to prosper in a thriving free-market economy with dramatically lower levels of poverty, homelessness, crime, and inequality. The average worker is paid better, treated more respectfully, and rewarded with life insurance, pension plans, maternity leave, and six weeks of paid vacation a year. All of these benefits only inspire Danes to work harder, with fully 80 percent of men and women aged 16 to 64 engaged in the labor force, a figure far higher than that of the United States."

The OP link story defines 'deplorable:'
"Evidence of such terminal decadence is the choice that so many Americans made in 2016 to prioritize their personal indignations, placing their own resentments above any concerns for the fate of the country and the world, as they rushed to elect a man whose only credential for the job was his willingness to give voice to their hatreds, validate their anger, and target their enemies, real or imagined.

Your misinterpretation.
Nobody, including Trump, thought the COVID 19 virus did not exist, that it was made up and make believe.
The Deplorables on this forum have consistently referred to calls of alarm to take the risk seriously a Democratic hoax, and this has happened so frequently it is no longer necessary to be verbose and descriptive about the context of we are talking about.

The OP article finale is a sobering kicker:
"Between praising the Chinese for their treatment of the Uighurs, describing their internment and torture as “exactly the right thing to do,” and his dispensing of medical advice concerning the therapeutic use of chemical disinfectants, Trump blithely remarked, “One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.” He had in mind, of course, the coronavirus, but, as others have said, he might just as well have been referring to the American dream."
Probably right. We are inching closer every day. So much hatred, resentment and bitterness that we are viciously divided. I have to wonder how the haters think America can be great with so much hatred for fellow Americans? All this bitter resentment and anger is 'great?'
That's ridiculous. The America Trump fans envision cannot exist. Having a minority of nasty people control everything for their own selfishness does not make a country great.
If the MAGA crowd got everything they wanted, America would not be great.
The MAGA crowd does not know how to make a country great.
I can tell you one thing. A bitterly divided country is not great.
'Making the liberals cry' does not make a country great. That's BS. What fools!
'Greatness' has never been defined as 'the embodiment of hatred.'

Hello ThatOwlWoman,
Yeah, I didn't hear of any 'mass exodus' of 'job creators' back when the top marginal tax rate was 93%.
But ya sure have to hand it to the super-rich, to get all these poor people to give them the power to lower their own taxes.
I can just hear the mass exodus sputtering to a halt right now:
"Honey, they are raising our taxes. We have to move to Nowhere's-ville so we can protect all the extra wealth we could never spend in a lifetime."
"Go ahead, dear. I'm staying here near the grandchildren so we can still be a part of their lives."
"But I'm doing this for the grandchildren, honey."
"So am I."

I've never understood why so many Americans have the mentality that America has to be #1 (in what, I don't know).
I'm just happy I live in a democracy and not California.

A tacit admission of your misinterpreting and misrepresenting my words.
If I have consistently wrote that Trump and his fanboys have downplayed the risk, and compared COVID to the conventional seasonal flu virus-- only a utter retard or a liar would interpret that to mean I was claiming Trump did not think the COVID virus actually existed: that it was non-existent, a made up and make believe hoax

Which is why competition, often through capitalism but sometimes through governments, is good. Is there any doubt that the major nations are competing to be the first to provide a viable vaccine for COVID-19? So much competition, in fact, that both Russia and China tried to hack their way into medical centers researching it?
Competition can be very good. If we want to be #1 or stay #1, then, as you pointed out, have to earn that spot.

Hello Trumpet,
Some of the damage can never be repaired. We can never let this happen again. People need to take politics more seriously and get informed and active.
Trump is the result of apathy.
We have enough sentient beings in the nation to have prevented this.
They just need to be paying attention and voting.
We gotta get the word out to save the USA.
