The messaging was conflicted by all from the very beginning--by the medical experts, the Dems, the Press, the WHO, the pundits, by Trump. Trumps messaging was regurgitation of statements by various experts. He didn't handle his duties per the Constitution irresponsibly. He took severe actions earlier than Biden would have since Biden criticized his travel bans from china, UK, and Europe. You conveniently leave out what was happening then, and insist that he didn't act soon enough. With no evidence other than politically motivated accusations by the Dems and the leftist Press.
and since you are like Barr in his defense of Trump you are now and to me forever know as DeBarr.
Then I take it as a complement.
Trump claiming 100,000 die yearly from the common flue is yet another lie meant to downplay the impact of Covid in comparison, yet the CDC estimates that 12,000 and 61,000 deaths annually since 2010 can be blamed on the flu. The higher number reflects the particularly harsh 2017-2018 flu season. Most years, the US death toll from the flu is closer to 34,000 to 43,000.

If he said that, he is wrong. Maybe he referred, or meant to refer to earlier pre-flu vaccine days when a lot more people died of it. 35 million Americans get the flu every year, a lot more than have got covid. How many of those 35 million would die if we hadn't already have developed medicines and ways to lessen its lethalness. I suspect when we get a better understanding and effect ways to combat covid, that it will be in the same category of deaths as the flue.

Luckily 70% of those polled don’t believe anything coming out of this administration when it comes to Covid, Trumps speaking to the 30% dumb bunnies (no offense) that can’t see through his BS.

Luckily, under this administration, we are finding ways to combat the virus quicker than it usually takes.

70% of dumb bunnies polled. Speaking of dumb bunnies. The dude in the stands of the baseball playoff game is hanging out with all the cardboard people. He’s wearing a mask so either he’s protecting the cardboard people from getting Covid or he’s ensuring he won’t catch Covid from cardboard people. This same network had three or four guys inside a studio the other day doing football with no masks. Maybe if there were cardboard people they would be more responsible and wear their masks

I personally believe anyone watching baseball (grass growing) is a dumb bunny.

If you get the flu then get run over by a truck. Do they classify it as a death caused by the flu?.....asking for a friend
