The 60,000+ number was in reference to the estimate from fleaswatter’s post where he acted like that’s some great accomplishment for donny.


Campaign slogan. "Only 60,000 died while Trump lied"

That's the pro-Trump slogan. MAGA

It is when you compare it to the earlier estimates of 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 deaths.

Trump was getting his information form the same experts you now depend on for numbers.

Were they lying?

Did they say there were 15 cases soon to go down to close to 0?

Did they say it would just magically go away on its own?

Did they say everyone who wants a test can get one?

Trump has demonstrated his leadership by going from scoffer, to reluctant supporter, to revisionist.

Are we still calling this no big deal? Will not affect the life of anyone you know? :S

And was it here or WOV where someone predicted total US deaths to be less than 100? Mind-boggling.

Word from the white house is to try to avoid grocery stores and pharmacies for the next two weeks, so not returning to business as usual yet.

CNN and MSNBC propagandists for the Chinese communist regime, telling us not to be concerned about the virus after Trump stopped China travel.

What about when you compare 60,000+ deaths to Donny’s initial estimate of “close to 0?”

Quote:
"when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that's a pretty good job we've done."


Is 60,000 deaths still a pretty good job?

I won’t hold my breath waiting for a (good faith) response.
