Face it, if a Dem were in the white house things would be very much the same.

My motive is to more than "subjectively" determine how well my country is doing to save the lives of my fellow countrymen.

Or we could just do like China and not report them.

Don’t worry.
I heard a netspert say it was just a flu...


It is just a flu virus that can turn nasty, usually with either long term heath issues or the elderly.

But because this flu virus is one that is new, they want to say it is not a flu. Wait 5 years then it will be a flu.


@Earl-of-Trumps
Utter BULLSHYTE. Individual states don't have the power to commandeer a whole national supply chain. THAT IS UP TO TRUMP, he is the one to take over distribution but he said in front of 20 million people "we are not supply clerks''

But he is the ONLY ONE who can clear up this ragged mess of states bidding against states and even FEMA outbidding PPE from states.

He is also playing political favorites giving first crack to those with tongues deepest into Trump's ass.

THAT IS THE REALITY and you know it.

Trump needs to get off his sorry ass and FUKKING TAKE OVER, not go WE ARE BACKUP.

This is a FUKKING NATIONAL EMERGENCY. You know the part that says NATIONAL?

He needs to listen to Cuomo, get the stuff to the critical states, then when they pass the apex of the curve, start shipping stuff out to states not so far up the curve but clearly in early trouble.

But of course that makes MUCH too much sense for your god king Trump. We need NATIONAL LEADERSHIP which ONLY Trump can give, not mewling about
I defer to the states' FOR GODS SAKE, he IS the state but he is certainly not acting like it.

We need to make this as plain as day to our congressmen and women, Senators, Governors, Mayors and the like RIGHT NOW. I already have. I am but one person and may in fact die if I get this C19.


@Eladar
You CANNOT be serious to quote McEnroe. Trump doesn't listen much to ANYONE. ANY other POTUS has at least done that and you can be certain a new Dem Potus will in fact listen VERY closely to his advisors AND assign real experts not sycophants and if you don't think Trump has just loaded himself down with sycophants, you have been living under a rock.

Look at the liberal leaders in Europe. Their countries are doing horribly.

Face it, this came from China and no establishment type would stop it.

Fauci is a freeking IDIOT in plain English.

He actually said that the entire nation should be in lockdown and should stay that way until the new virus infection count is ZERO.

In other words, if New York City has one CV infection on a given day, the people in California, Oregon, Wyoming and all the other states (Hawaii??) need to stay in lock down. Make sense?
...[text shortened]... perspective of virus deaths. he has NO CLUE how many people he would kill by doing such a lockdown.
Lockdowns don't kill people, no matter what Trump says.

Looking to have a rational discussion on devising a simple/effective ranking for how well certain countries are doing. I keep hearing certain people shouting how terrible the USA is responding to this.

Here is what I propose as a simple scoring system. Improvements are welcome.

all data comes from
https://www.worldometers.info

I first sorted the data by Total D ...[text shortened]... eople down with mere opinion.

So as I said, I welcome thoughtful critiques, improvements, ect...
A good comparison would be against South Korea, by all accounts they have been the 'gold standard' in how to combat a pandemic. 70,000 tests carried out in the first week after the 1st confirmed case. Only 174 deaths.
