    The denominator is severly understated. Therefore death rate is severely overstated.
    This is just a simple fact based on all information we have.

    Of course not. He has a team of experts like any president does.

    But anyone that understands fractions can understand the death rate is severely overstated right now.

    The total amount of deaths is also understated, so you can't make any sort of accurate deductions from that. What we do know is that even as the number of positive tests increase, the death rate is remaining consistent.

    The rate of that outside fraction still depresses the death rate from where it is now. Everyone is hyper sensitive so any deaths will be looked at as coronavirus driven.

    So the governor of Florida has decided to stop citing the fact so many New Yorkers have been fleeing to Florida in recent weeks as a positive sign for Florida.

    Oh and in a couple weeks weeks we will see that Italy is NOT the worst case scenario. Both Spain and the UK are on a worse trajectory in terms of deaths.

    I have no clue why UK went on the path they did. It's about blunting the curve to ramp up and then go back to normal.

    They skipped the first part and are now ****ed.

    And to think... Trump exempted the UK from his corona travel ban because he said they were doing well.

    Surely not because he has a few golf resorts in the UK...

    I actually was on the Trump bandwagon early in the primary season.

    Then you do your research and realize how much of a joke he is. I liked him when he ****ed with the GOP establishment. But when he started making a mockery of minorities and the weak, pretty much turned me away. He's been consistent ever since in embarrassing himself.

    I was working in the city throughout the 1990s. I got to observe at close hand all the stuff involving Marla Maples, the casinos and airline run into the ground, etc, etc. Once a buffoon always a buffoon. The people who voted for him and who continue to defend him have a lot to answer for. But I'm not expecting many of them to take responsibility. A few have. But most won't

    The people on this forum are really ****ing dumb. They've been bitching about the election for 4 years. They'll be bitching about it another 4 years. Imagine having to put all your hopes into Joe ****ing Biden lolololol.
