1. The USA with only 4.25% of the world's population has just under 32% of the entire corona virus cases on earth. This exceeds the combined total of the next 6 nations combined plus China.

2. As Mitt Romney pointed out, despite Trump's boasts, our record of testing for corona virus is nothing to celebrate, when we consider that by early March when the USA had tested only 2,000 and Trump was still downplaying the seriousness of the pandemic and dismissing the need for strong mitigating measures. South Korea, by that time, had already tested 140,000--70 times as many, and initiated strict social distancing, quarantines and shutdowns to mitigate the impending crisis. Now, about 2 1/2 months later, South Korea has had only 10,962 confirmed cases and only 259 deaths. In contrast, the number of cases in the US (with only 6.6 times South Korea's population) has accumulated more than 1,388,00 confirmed cases (almost 127 times as many as South Korea) and 83,715 deaths (more than 323 times as many) and still counting rapidly.

This starkly tragic comparison is not disputed even by FOX News! Anyone who still thinks that the Trump administration has handled this crisis better or even as well as other nations, and shares no responsibility or blame for this travesty is a flaming, delusional idiot!

Steve Schmidt, a former GOP strategist who successfully managed GW Bush's Presidential campaign, rightly blasted Trump for the most inept response to "any crisis in history!"

If Republican lawmakers and party leaders had any sense or integrity, they would do their darnedest to persuade Trump to resign from the 2020 Presidential campaign and select some other Republican candidate for President during this year's Republican convention.

Pretty sure the religious answer would be that the higher incidence of COVID-19 is due to God's wrath for electing Donald Trump.

How about it, Trump fans? Are any of you still willing to step up to the plate and try to defend Trump's pandemic response?

I was one of the victims of the /phpBB3/ problem until I saw Dr. Shades' suggested remedy today. I noticed that there are 3 new PMs in my inbox, but when I click on the inbox, nothing happens. I suspect at least one of them is from you.

I didn't message you. I knew you couldn't get on the board because I saw you online here and you weren't posting. I was on the back up board when I figured out how to get in here. I told the posters there how to do it and then I started a couple or three posts for people who couldn't open the threads and I did this one especially for you: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=53262

I will modify this post with a link to the back up board so you can keep it if you can't get in here again.

You worried me, Gunnar!

If your inbox won’t open, try Right clickIng the inbox link, and selectIng copy. Then Paste the address into a new tab, but inspect it before going to it. It may still contain the phpBB3 term, which you can delete by hand.

It's quite telling that, so far, not one of the Trump supporters here has even tried to explain away the damning evidence given in my OP of how terribly Trump has handled the corona virus pandemic. They obviously know they will only succeed in embarrassing and disgracing themselves by even trying.

What could anyone say to defend his response without lying or sounding like a moron?

Honestly, I don't think Trump supporters have really internalized his response. If they thought about it too much, they'd have to admit what a damn up he is. Everyone saw how he downplayed it for weeks before having to admit it was a pandemic. If you still trust him now, after all of this, you're just a brainless follower with no will, backbone or intellectual life of your own.
