Or maybe it's the crappy way Americans take care of themselves, more than the health system, that is the problem.

Americans health issues are real, on both an individual and system level.
But you’re thinking that the reason counties that supported Trump have higher death rates is because of Whale Team Six?

you keep assuming that the people that died in counties that supported trump are trump supporters...but you don't know that unless the counties are 100% trump voters..which is highly unlikely

good news pete...you freaked out over nothing...again
Florida officials confirmed last week that between 800,000 and 1 million COVID tests had expired in a warehouse just before the New Year due to "low demand." On January 7, the Food and Drug Administration issued a letter to Abbott Diagnostics, who produced the tests, saying that they have extended the shelf-life for those tests, and that they can still be used.

Poor Brett from Hero to Zero
The conservative knives come out for Brett Kavanaugh
Tucker Carlson Thursday night muttering that Kavanaugh was a “cringing little liberal.”
Trump Jr. The left broke Kavanaugh. That was always their intention and it worked.
They turned him into a Roberts.
Honestly, Roberts and Kavanaugh didn’t have a backbone on that decision — that’s the bottom line,” said DeSantis, who has been among the GOP’s foremost critics of vaccine mandates.
Classic GOP expecting allegiance from the HIGHEST COURT. Yet : The law be dammed

If Americans health is overall worse than the health of those in other advanced countries, then it very much stands to reason that would be a major contributing factor of why American death rates from/with Covid would be higher than in those other countries. Disregarding that and trying to pin the blame on politics or the President is worse than merely being disingenuous.
