Trump's Failure By The Numbers

It is possible to envision a United States' response to Covid-19 that resulted in substantially fewer deaths.   The leaders of other nations have managed to follow science and rally their citizens to make the sacrifices necessary to deal with the virus.  The US stands as the painful outlier in our national approach and the terrible toll of that approach.  We can lay the blame for hundreds of thousands of dead Americans directly upon Trump, his Republican enablers and fellow far right travelers.
