    You seem to be intentionally ignorant... two months ago the rates of new cases, hospitalizations and deaths were much different... many of the southern states that are now showing steep increases were not in May.

    Second... you completely ignore the question about the lack of leadership from the president. You try to blame his resistance to masks to "early advice" from CDC experts. How many months have experts been saying masks were important in flattening the curve? And trump only this past month started wearing a mask.

    Then talk about how long trump ignored the advice and reports from medical and scientific experts. He then started contradicting and even attacking the experts, including Dr. Fauci, the preeminent expert in the field.

    Typical Trump supporter. Uneducated and following blindly or educated with no ounce of empathy or remorse for anyone but themselves

    You obviously didn't read those very well.
    The first one still says that dem states are worse off per my link.
    The second is merely an approval rating.
    Try again.

    You're crazy. The first story and charts show opposite trends, since early reopenings around Memorial Day, with Republican states going way up and the Democratic states trending down. The way things are going though, and with Trump pushing for reopening, it could all get worse.

    You like to switch things around a tad doncha...
    Your previous post you said Trump needed to listen to the experts to which I replied he did.
    This was about the early advice of no necessity to wear masks:-
    "Fauci was simply echoing what many others argued at that time, including the U.S. Surgeon General, the World Health Organization (WHO), and The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)."
    So why the need to backflip and make it about leadership now?
    Seems you don't like facts that contradict your preconceived ideas.

    You really do need to read. This took less than two minutes to find... and I can find countless more...

    Gotta stop this nonsense. The virus doesn’t care if a governor is red or blue. Wyoming is a vast field of cattle grazing, NYC is the most densely populated city in the US. Populated areas are blue. The virus will be worse in those areas. Republicans on average are more skeptical of the virus and took fewer precautions early on. You know this. The democrats have treated it as a bigger threat for a longer period of time. That’s just pure objective fact

    Trump touted no mask, encouraging it, encouraging opening up and ending lockdowns, and NEVER acknowledges the people dying. Stop trying to get me to agree with you. The majority of Americans see him as a failure.

    That doofus jokes around about having less tests because they make him look bad when the reality is we don't have enough testing to know who's infected or the means to track and isolate those spreaders.

    Grade A catastrophe.

    That Congress has been dithering for months in terms of economic and social response doesn't paint a pretty picture for them either.

    Too many words.

    I am sure it says that Trump is the best, ALWAYS thinks of others first, and is NEVER opportunistic, incoherent, incompetent, or racist. And that the snowflakes should get over it.

    Please don't let facts and reality get in the way.

    Really...
    The very first graph you look at says that the red states have almost caught the blue.
    You want more, I can point them out for you.
    Try reading for comprehension.

    Not a Trump supporter at all - a truth supporter.

    Still does not contradict my point - that the WHO, the CDC and Fauci originally said masks were not necessary and that that is the experts Trump was quoting.

    The figures early on clearly indicate that red states were far less affected than blue, contradicting your "pure objective fact".

    Trump originally touted no mask because of the false information the "experts" gave him.
    Fact.
