    Not a fact (between us, anyway), but rather a truth which you are either ignorant of or deny.

    Did Trump spread it to the world too? You do realize that the Trump admin actually did all the work, the quarantines, the China travel ban, the European travel ban, expanding the European travel ban, dealing with unwanted cruise ships, daily press conferences, negotiating with manufacturers to mass produce ppe's and ventilators, shipping excess equipment to the worlds nations, dealing with the WHO, meeting with and delegating local responsibility to the nations Governors, calling for an economic slowdown with essential workers continuing to work, pushing for and signing a stimulus package, fast tracking research and development of a vaccine, pushing for the rollout, beginning the distribution to the nation. Biden hasn't had to do squat but stay on top of the distribution and adjust it to suit. It's his baby now, but Bidens doing all the crying.

    I think maybe you've let Trump do the thinking for you. You do parrot what he believes.

    Trump did what China did, play it down

    many countries look to the USA to lead in a crisis, when Trump was in office, that was a mistake

    The flu kills 30-80 thousand a year. Covid has killed nearly 500 thousand in a year.

    unlike Trump, Biden did not have a hance to stop it as 15 going on zero

    remember Trump putting out the mission accomplished flag at 15

    cases are trending down, Biden is leading by example, showing empathy, and listening to the experts, that is enough for me, that is what I expected Trump to do as well

    No, Trump didn't play it down. He remained optimistic. China buried it along with their Doctors and Journalists. Trump did a great job, imo.

    and Trump knew the dangers

    With no end in sight. The flu is seasonal where Covid-19 has thrived through all 4 seasons.

    Of course he did which is why so many of Trump's followers refuse to wear a mask.

    He did not spread every case but thanks to the botched and horrific handling of the American outbreak he is in large degree reposponsible from converting this disease to one we can eradicate to one that will always be with us. Be prepared for yearly vaccinations

    And the Trump admin did NOT “do the work”. NZ “did the work”. Australia “did the work” even countries like Vietnam “did the work”

    He is only responsible for 350,000 or so unnecessary US deaths.

    What's a few hundred-thousand dead among friends. Meh.

    Given how many “Super spreader” rallies Trump held I wonder how many of those dead were supporters?

    What are you talking about. Trump is America's president. He didn't botch anything. And no other nation, neither the Democrat party nor lamestream media did a thing to help the Trump administrations efforts but to criticize and spread their hateful anti Trump propaganda along the entire route.

    The flu and covid do not kill. It is pneumonia (or other complications which arise from such infection) which kills. Covid has not killed nearly 500,000 people. People dying of pneumonia, heart disease, stroke, cancer, motorcycle accidents, gun shot, and etc are not "deaths from covid".

    Well, they were here, then they got covid, now they're gone. It's not the fall, it's the sudden stop. That's mortality. I personally believe that Americans are in such piss poor shape anymore, that nearly anything can push us over the edge. Still, it is the push or the edge, moreso than our nearness to it, is it not?

    This is true of many Americans, unfortunately.

    Or how many took Pelosi's and other Democrats advice early on, to ignore Trumps efforts to contain the virus, and to carry on as usual, to mingle and eat Chinese. First they accused Trumps moves as an overreactive hoax. Then they swapped ends and began accusing him of being inept and not doing enough. In short, whatever it is, spin it to Trump sucks. At any rate, how much was spread and how many died due to the lefts political antics. Fact is, the Trump administration labored to contain the virus and serve the country, while the Democrats and liberal media labored incessantly to bury Trump.
