    If that's what helps you to rationalize, go for it.

    When did we annex France? Never mind. I'll look that up later, in vain.

    Meanwhile Belgium, UK, Spain, Italy, and Sweden are all on that chart, and doing worse than the U.S. as a whole (in spite of Cuomo making New York America's new Death Valley State).

    What's the mortality rate of the seasonal flu for those under the age of 70?

    Question for Liberals:

    60k people die from the Flu every year. In the last 20 years that is 1 million 200k deaths.

    Why are you not wearing masks and social distancing and closing schools every Flu season? (in America)

    And please DO NOT say it is because we have a vaccine, because those 60k annual deaths happen WITH the vaccine anyways. I am talking about mitigating the 60k deaths that still happen every year anyways. Why are you not wearing masks and social distancing and closing schools every Flu season?

    Of course, I already know the answer, but I want to see what sort of hypocrite nonsense Liberals come up with first.

    How many deaths have France, Belgium, UK, Spain, Italy, and Sweden seen - combined - in the last week?

    More kids died of the Flu than the China virus in year 2020, yet no mention of this from the media.

    The reason is because we have a vaccine, antivirals, antibodies, and proven treatments for the seasonal flu. Oh, and because the seasonal flu is much less lethal than covid-19.

    But I bet you that Americans are going to start wearing masks and social distancing a lot more during the flu season going forward.

    1000 Americans are dying every day, right now, from Covid-19.

    It will not disappear in November.

    Last year, according to the CDC, 2.8 million people died of everything. That’s 2.8 million people. That comes out to roughly 7,617 a day, 228,000 a month, based off of last year’s statistics

    So far up to date this year based on last year’s statistics, 1.6 million people have already died of things other than COVID. We’re destroying everyone’s livelihood and shut down the economy for 150,000 people over the course of three months. So far this year, 1.6 million people have already died. If you (you=anyone reading this) got up out of bed this morning you took a chance at dying. So far everything you’ve done today has been a risk to your life.

    If you walk down the steps, you risk dying from a slip-and-fall. If you took a shower, same thing. If you plugged anything into an electrical outlet, you risked death. If you walked across the street, you risked death. If you exercise, etc.

    So throughout your normal course of the day you risk death 2,000 times a day, minimum. We’re afraid of COVID, which has a 99.96% recovery rate, or I'll even give you a 98.3% recovery rate from a different source. And we are afraid of Covid? Are you kidding me? Should you be scared of COVID at this point, based on what you know, that 1.6 million people died so far this year of other things?

    This is why I do not fear Covid. I have more of a chance of dying in a car accident but I still drive.

    Tucker Carlson tells us she is home looking in her mirror calling herself the Governor.

    I don't know and don't care. You look it up if those particular stats make your "It's Trump's fault," more agreeable, or cause less cognitive dissonance, for you.

    Like I said, America is objectively doing the worst in its handling of Covid-19 because we are still losing 1,000 Americans per day, because we have 5.7 million confirmed cases, and because we have lost 173K lives in five months.

    I read the Swiss are doing better with their methods than the US is doing in, say, Massachusetts.
    I can believe this is particularly deadly and contagious to people of a median age of 80.
    We sent young men, and even some women, to fight, kill and even die in foreign wars to defend our way of life. What will become of our way of life now that we have made a priority of protecting 80 year olds so they may reach 82?
    Sick how excited the Left is about all of this as they have nothing else. They're trying to make a thing about mail boxes as long as we don't know many of pics we are seeing were taken during the BHO era. And they're from safely blue state where even Democrats don't have to cheat and Trump does not worry about them doing so.
    ITMT: Interesting. Rhinos will get much more DNC air time than AOC and those like her.

    You're using the new post-modern English redefinition of words to write "objectively" into your statement.

    What you call "objective" in the post-modern, I still call "subjective" from the recent Enlightenment period, when we used reason and back when words had set definitions.

    What's their ammunition "WE HATE TRUMP"? It was a bad PBS fund drive night. There was none of this excitement and get the troops energized how many times can you say "WE HATE TRUMP" and keep people engaged. Where is the "HERE IS OUR PLAN"?

    That poor girl they put out there to blame Trump because her dad caught COVID and died so vote for Biden who has not put out anything new or that would have changed that.

    Let's see Biden emphasizes with me..............I don't want a President to emphasize with me I want him to run the country effectively and I can take care of myself thank you very much.
    Biden will bring us together..................he's going to adopt my political positions or something, I don't think so he has already divided his own voters.
    Biden will really talk to people to learn what needs to be done..............................he doesn't already?
    Biden supports the protesters...................................so he supports shutting down cities of protest yet explained while TOTALLY ignoring the anarchy going on in the streets of our major cities? Not ONE WORD about that last night.

    This might keep the hard core left tuned in but the independent moderates I don't think so and the Republicans will be facing the same during their convention.

    "Scientists and researchers are constantly tracking infections and recoveries. But they have data only on confirmed cases, so they can’t count people who don’t get COVID-19 tests. Experts also don’t have information about the outcome of every infection. However, early estimates predict that the overall COVID-19 recovery rate is between 97% and 99.75%."

    Oh my - a little out of your depth on this one. Compare the websites of Trump and Biden and then come back to me with what Trump's plan is...

    We are about even with the rest of modern western countries you are just qubbling about minor varations.

    The question for the here and now is what is it Biden says he will do different that will stop it? Nothing. And all this blaming Trump as the source of COVID and the CAUSE of deaths to those who die from it, what would Biden have done different AT THE TIME that would have prevented that? Nothing and in fact would have made it worse than it is. Simply rattling off statistics and then saying vote for Joe ain't real convincing.

    Biden is too senile to know what day it is. He has no plan.

    Trump already saved millions of lives.

    There is no more need for a plan. All that is left is herd immunization. Once the human race has been exposed once, it will settle down into annual cycles just like the Flu. Trying to avoid that is just putting off what must be.
