How is that not a major election issue?
I blame him for the vast majority of those deaths. Way more than a normal flu death rate.
The total number of death from Covid is probably well over a million now.

(5,944 posts)Stalin nailed that one unfortunately. It is too big a number for the human brain to properly comprehend, so it gets tuned out. Otherwise the guy would be in jail already, but he walks free.

(23,156 posts)Florida is #1 in Covid deaths since the vaccines were implemented - why, oh why, is this not being shouted from the rooftops by Crist? Death Sentence and drumpf are both murderers for political profit.

(23,156 posts)It should be advertised to the sky and back. It's his major weakness, he says he protected us and he did the opposite - tell it to the world!!!

(645 posts)I am in no way saying Trump doesn't have a lot of responsibility, but just looking at Europe as a guide, I think we would have still had at least three hundred thousand, and probably over half a million regardless. If one uses the deaths per million statistic, even a relative success story like Denmark had 1200 deaths per million residents. We had 3200.
Places like France had 2300, Austria 2200, etc..

(79,302 posts)nothing to worry about and the pandemic is all in their minds.
Of course some deaths were bound to occur, but I think the issue here is UNNECESSARY deaths.
Even after Trump contracted COVID he still acted like a damn fool.
And I am not saying many deaths can't be laid at the feet of Trump.

(980 posts)That the thousands that Raygun killed by saying that AIDS is a gay cancer.
That Dumbya killed in Iraq and Afghanistan for no reason.
Just a few more. Each time they go on a mass murdering streak, it just gets bigger.
The next one will probably kill us all, if we are not already done due to climate change.
