After recording a record high tally in deaths yesterday and on pace to break that again today, the US has officially passed Italy for the country with the highest death toll in the world. By the end of today, we will have well over 20k confirmed deaths. The number of total cases will top 530k.

Health experts believe the actual number of deaths is likely much higher, as deaths outside of hospitalization are not recorded.

    Italy also has 1/5th the amount of people of the United States.

    Also, if Obama was the President, youd say man this is an unfortunate tragedy but it was inevitable because of the population density of the United States, but because its Donald Trump, you say orange man bad.

    A list of reasons this is Trump's fault:

    Too many to list them all. The main ones however:

    -Was alerted to the possibility of a pandemic a long time ago. Sat on his ass and did nothing
    -Was the last country among all developed nations to implement mass testing, allowing the virus to spread controllably
    -Continuoisly downplayed and lied about the virus leading to millions of Americans ignoring it and calling it a hoax
    -Significantly cut the CDC's budget and fired the entire pandemic response team.

    Trump has handled this virus worse than any other world leader with the possible exception of Bolsonaro. He has been an utter embarrassment.

    Dude, Trump knew this could be a problem as far back as November. He knew it WOULD be a problem as far back as January. Aside from some half assed travel "ban" which just prevented foreign nationals who visited China from coming here, he didn't take action for 70+ days. He made every attempt to downplay and cover up facts about the virus, going as far as to call the media's coverage of the facts a Democrat hoax

    Their deaths are increasing by like 600 a day at this point and their lockdown has been extended a month, ours is increasing by 2000 a day and our government is considering opening things up instead. We'll have 5x as many deaths as them in no time at this rate.

    Sorry if posted already.

    Deaths in NY could have been reduced by up to 50%-80% if Blasio, Cuomo and other officials acted sooner according to a New Yorks Times investigation.

    The really weird thing is, that poster made a topic last week about how awful Trump's response was and that he really could shoot his supporters and they'd still vote for him

    He must just be shitposting to have gone full Trumper in such a short time

    Yeah, except testing comes from the federal government, especially from the initial phase of the pandemic. Trump not instituting mass testing and not having tests available for the states right away really fucked them over. Contrast this to competent governments like South Korea, Hong Kong and Singapore that instituted mass testing immediately and whipped the virus' ass in no time.

    Doing the math right now rounding everything about 105,000 deaths worldwide. 1% of the u.s population is 3,250,000. World population rounding down is 7,700,000,000. 1% of the world population is 77,000,000. 105,000 deaths right now is about 1.363636363E-5. what does that mean?

    Lol the funniest thing about people that constantly bitch about Donald Trump (which honestly I don't think Obama or Hillary or anyone would have done much different) is that now their only alternative is a creepy perv with full blown dementia. The only way this could get better is if he picks Stacey Abram's as his running mate.

    This is truly clown world folks.

    Stay safe, and well if you feel like staying on your soap box about Trump then that is fine, but it isn't a good look to push 100% of the blame on Trump 24 hours a day when you just failed to impeach the guy. Of course you're gonna blame him because you were already likely blaming stubbing your toe on him before this

    They wouldn't have downplayed and covered up the severity of the virus for 70 days

    Also Obama put the pandemic team into place that Trump fired. Fuck off with your disingenuous both sides bullshit
