    We’ve done better or similar than a few major EU countries. We’ve had more cases but we also have 350mil people. But our death rate has been quite respectable considering our “terrible” healthcare. Far lower than a couple EU nations. And international travel from Asia to the US is very high compared to most of the world.

    1. Deaths per 1M pop;

    U.S., 9th highest deaths per 1M pop, (currently at 521), thus, out of 215 countries, we’ve done better than 8 countries.......MAGA!

    2. Death rate;

    Trump; We have the lowest death rate

    Trump; If we were to cut testing in half, we would
    cut cases in half.

    IQ Test; Why both statements are contradictory?

    Answer; I highly doubt Trump’s loyalists know why

    LAST, do Veterans care about their Deployment Fatality Rate (DFR)? Certainly not! “We shall remember THEM”.

    In other words, we may have the lowest Case Fatality Rate, but like our Veterans, people will remember those who died, thus, by year end, the plus 250,000 fatalities.

    The more testing that is done reveals that exposure to the virus is far more asymptomatic or mild than we were led to believe.

    People who want to make this into the dramatic horror movie they wish it to be should be discouraging testing.

    Willya bloody just fracking STAWP, just Please, OK fine, the Chinese did it SOME but to be honest at this point we're not even that sure it really even CAME from China (though most all indications are) and who the bloody frack CARES anyway? This thing has killed going on a quarter million of us and it's NOT STOPPING, but now we should just cease to be concerned about whether we're all going to die and go to war with China or what?

    HOW can ANYONE listen to this ******med fracking idjit any fracking more? HOW can ANY political grouping in ANY country seriously run this TOTAL GAPING ANAL OPENING for any office but Clown Prince of the Dominion of Rubber Rooms? Do some conservatives really just HATE people like Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek enough to kill not only their parents but their own CHILDREN over it?

    You don’t get that positive testing is showing how weak this virus is.
    The more positively tested the lower the death rate and sickness rate.
    Testing should be anathema to you and maybe should be banned as the results don’t support your notions of how dangerous this virus is in your world view.
    I support full testing of the entire population if they test for antibodies.
    It only supports my arguments!

    I'm referring to my repeated contention that the only reason anyone still supports Trump is that Trump hates the same people they do, and it's pretty obvious that Trump hates most Hispanics

    The overall death rates are irrelevant if you're in a vulnerable population. There is no treatment so if you're in a vulnerable group and begin to show symptoms you will likely die. Even if you survive it is an agonizing malady and has a lot of lingering effects

    Testing shows where the disease is, testing and contact tracing is the main way to stop the spread. It's the main reason S. Korea has only just recently broken 300 deaths out of 51 million people.

    If you don't test it's like fighting a fire blindfolded

    Hispanics are useful to the Dems but are very socially conservative. And once established in the US will likely be appalled by dem support for abortion for example. US Dems have sown the seed for their own destruction as this voting block will never support the dem party as they assume.

    I see plenty that supports the claim he hates Hispanics and so does any reasonable person who has listened to him and not viewed the world through a MAGA hat. People boycotted Goya because he said nice things about Trump and they disagreed with that not because Goya was Hispanic

    I don't care about voting blocks. I try to appeal to individual voters. People are entitled to whatever opinions they may have on many subjects and nobody is in full agreement on all things

    So Democrats like Hispanics as long as they are dependents and are waiting on tables, but hate Hispanics if they are wealthy business owners who are not oppressed and have a seat at the table with the POTUS offering advise to the highest levels.

    When people of a skin colors don't fit the "oppressed" narrative of the DNC, they suddenly turn white.

    They don't like independent people, except for extremely wealthy campaign donors.

    Talking death per million or 100k depending on country size. It’s not about totals. You can’t compare total numbers between countries of vastly different sizes unless you’re an idiot.

    And conservatives generally don't like anyone who is not almost exactly like themselves

    Apples and elephants. You’re truly comparing us with countries barely the size of our biggest states and barely any international travel. Like talking with children.

    Conservatives are generally likely to see humans a fully-autonomous individual beings with separate brains and thoughts. Of course, I'm not speaking for all conservatives, as we are fully-autonomous individual beings with separate brains and thoughts.

    Seems to me that stereotyping people into hive-minded clumps and assuming every piece of the human clump must be like-minded, else that individual is broken, is far more common from the left-wing.

    Despite that, I am very fond of several individual Democrats and left-wingers each one special and unique. I also like quite a few conservatives who manage to "stereotype like a Democrat". LOL

    And we're going to pretend we have leaders on the other side of the aisle? Because while it was breaking out in China, we had impeachment gate.

    Now while Trump has said he wasn't distracted by it, Congress and we the people most certainly were and you can argue that was a much bigger loss.

    In reference to making the right decision, country size comparisons, IRRELEVANT!

    What about good leadership? Same thing, country size comparisons, IRRELEVANT!

    What’s good leadership? Google 10 qualities of a good leader, and then, try to match them up with Trump......good luck!
