    Well I didn't say covid-19 didn't exist I just said it was no worse than flu. The numbers are inflated. The only reason people are getting diagnosis for them because they're getting tested. We generally don't test for things like flu.

    So where is your validation for believing these “inflated numbers”?

    Really?

    How?

    the virus was at critical spread prior to the protests - or is this another history revision by Trump supporters?

    We have the third largest population, and of the three, the most accurate tracking. India has barely got off the ground with testing, so they have no way to know who died of Cvirus, and China isn't gonna give anyone an honest count. Our total death rate is meaningless as a comparison.

    Whats our per capita Cvirus death rate compared to other nations, and what criteria are they using to determine actual cause of death?

    Lol...trump’s anal sphincter?
    It’s unbelievable that people could be so gullible as to believe that the coronavirus is a political ploy to oppress them.
    trump has really damaged a lot of people’s thinking.

    Sure ... what's next? It was a bilogical war attack on the USA, done by China?

    Hell ... The simplicity and stupidity of many Americans to believe every mental garbage and lie Donald Trump says knows really no bounds. There was such stupidity recently with the followers of Hitler, Stalin and Mao on this planet ...

    No ... and this wasn't told ... but if a single USD in business is more worth as a single life of a Corona victim, then it is sick!

    You forgot much ... look at the handling of the virus by Trump and his own incompetence first. Is he leading the countrey of Pelosi?

    But the "best" of what you write and claim is that you are telling a plain lie here. Pelosi was not against the travel ban ...

    This is what Pelosi actually said:

    "If you're going to shut the door because you have an evaluation of an epidemic, then shut the door"!

    Trump has repeatedly described his decision to implement a travel ban end of January between the US and China as his best and earliest move to fight the pandemic. "Actually, tens of thousands of people were still allowed in from China.
    If this was his best and earliest move ... then I want not to know what his worst would have been ... because the door stood still far open and thens of thousands of Americans and green card holders could come back ... totally untested and with no quarantine ... AND THIS IS WHY CORONA hit the USA so hard ... and who is guilty for this again? Trump and only Trump and no one else!

    Again an example of Trump fans who dislike uncomfortable facts and twist them into lies!

    Lol...sophistry with statistics is dangerous.
    Here’s a sobering fact.
    So far, out of 8 billion people in the world, 500,000 have died from coronavirus.
    In the US, with just 325 million people, 125,000 have died.
    Thanks, trump.

    I can only agree with what you write .... :applause:

    There is a reasonable suspicion that wearing the red MAGA cap inexplicably affects the performance of the underlying brain and causes total immunity to all unpleasant facts and truths at such people.

    Based on my own experience in dealing with such people, I can only agree ... 8)

    Camp of facts? ... Wait a moment ... there was something in the past with fact and Trump worshipers ... O, yes ... I know:

    As Trump said once with this lie of more being at his inauguration as there were at Obama:

    "There a facts and there are alternatively facts from me".

    Well ... I understand which camp of facts you mean now. Please note: Outside the world of Trump worshipers this alternitve truth is caled to be a lie and a fake news. ;-)

    I use the phrase "medical examiner" to also include the doctors or nurses that give their opinion on the cause of death.
