If Prez Doing Such A Good Job, Why Does USA Have Most Covid?

[PoliTalker]

Good morning Darth,

Democrats hoaxed it when they trotted out the 2 million dead prediction.

That’s a hoax.

That's not the hoax DT claimed.

He said the virus was a Democratic hoax.

Obviously he was wrong.

I hope we don't get to the 2 million figure but that is still a possibility. Thankfully DT dropped his denials when he finally did. Enough will die for the 6 weeks that he continued his denials as it is.

Here are the numbers:

World wide death rate for resolved cases, where the patient either recovered or died: 17%

Estimated infection rate in the USA: 60% of the population.

Population of the USA 329M.

60% of 329M = 197M

17% of 197M = 33.5 Million.

Those are not pretty numbers, but they are real.

Obviously we don't want to see 33 million Americans die.

Considering that possibility makes 2 million look much better.

If you can find an error in this math which makes it more encouraging, please do!

Good morning Moose,



Well if it went up by 30K in a day that shows we are not flattening the curve.

And since we do not have effective mass testing we don't really know how widespread it actually is.

That means the prez is shooting from the hip again without vetted policy to even suggest we can be 'open for business' by Easter and fill churches with people.

DT is not doing a good job. He dropped the ball on taking prompt action when we had the chance. He blew it off in deference to the stock market and his approval rating.

Ironically, if he had acted decisively, he would have seen a huge bounce in his approval. When he finally did, he got that. Too bad it was too late to prevent more deaths. Now he is going to see the foolishness of his inaction as many die needlessly, Especially when hospitals run out of ventilators and must begin choosing who lives and who dies. Those deaths from lack of ventilators will be on him.

You are the biggest idiot on JPP. And that is saying a lot.

COVID deaths is all the that matters and we’re lagging.

I have faith Trump will make America #1 by Cinco de Mayo!

[Micawber]

He doesn't and its no biggie anyways. MAGA!

[Doc Dutch]

It's called a pandemic you twit. No matter how hard you try unless you completely lock down the country you will never keep it from spreading. Look at our infection rate compared to Europe. then you can whine.

No need to get angry. Most Americans knew Trump is 90% bullshit whenever he speaks. It's a given. It's what the experts say that really matters. This includes VP Pence, who has been more Presidential in the past few months than Trump has in his entire 3 years.

Hello dukkha,

of course you do...

If Republicans were not in such denial of the poor performance of DT, then Democrats would not have to go to such lengths to point out the facts of his irresponsible inaction and denials, which are now poised to sacrifice American lives for his BS.

Wow, talk about pot kettle black...

He is the most serious, curious and courteous poster at JPP by a country mile. I certainly don't have the patience
he has with idiots like you that he does.

your narrative is a bunch of crap as usual.. all the complaints is about testing -not his performance.

What did Biden say about closing flights from China early like Trump did?

He called it "racist xenophobia" -there's your problem

For all practical purposes Pence is President!
Trump comes out and talks about himself,brags,ignores the actual numbers.
Picks fights with the media.Then leaves.
And the adults come out and say what's going on,contradicting Trump's narcissistic pipedreams.

A slight disagreement. Most Republicans are not in denial of Trump's poor performance, they just don't talk about it because the alternative is the Democrat Dementia candidate; Joe Biden. I like Joe, he's a nice guy, but I don't want him to be President. FWIW, I don't want Trump to be President either, but he is. The RWNJs on this forum are an except to a normal, sane Republican. The RWNJs on this forum either young Neo-Nazis/White Supremacists or they are old farts stuffed into a room with their walker and a computer. They're so old even a bucket of Viagra wouldn't help them get a woody so they take their anger about life out on this forum. Regardless, they're idiots and should largely be ignored except for entertainment purposes.

Yes, to be fair, there are LW Loonies too, but they are fewer in number and most are as hateful.

Why worry? Trump is almost assured of reelection in November. The only thing that would cause him to lose is if he's wrong about Easter and there are over 37,000 Americans dead of COVID-19 by Election Day.

Agreed. The smartest thing Trump's done his entire presidency is to put Pence in charge of the Coronavirus task force.

Hello anonymoose,



That's an outdated graph.

It shows the US with 69K cases.

Try 104K

And that would make it 315 cases per million. And rising fast. Poised to overtake both Iran and France. (We have bad leadership.)

Even those numbers may sound better than 1700 deaths.

But the feel-good about that is to be short-lived.

There is no flattening of the curve.

We are still spiking.

As of 3/26/20... PER CAPITA!
