You make up your own definitions and ignore the facts Ron. Truly pathetic.
Reality is you have a candidate whose political platform you refuse to publish or publicly defend so you attempt to slander Trump with projection. The truth :
The U.S. has suffered 426 deaths from the coronavirus per 1 million people. Of the five major European nations — Germany, Great Britain, France, Spain, and Italy — only Germany has done better. Spain at 608 per 1 million is next. (All numbers here are from Worldometer.)
The way things are going, it’s possible that per capita deaths in the U.S. will catch up with or even exceed the number in Spain, etc. But for now, Will’s claim that our response to the virus is worthy of pity from the rest of the world doesn’t withstand scrutiny. We’re doing better than most of the countries with reliable data that it’s fair to compare us with.
One can disagree with the policies that form the core of Trump’s presidency and/or about the way Trump is pursuing them. But far from being frivolous, they are largely the ones you would expect a conservative president to pursue — lowering taxes, easing regulations, getting tough with China on trade, restoring close relations with Israel, squeezing Iran financially, nominating judges who aren’t liberal activists, trying to curb illegal immigration, building up the military, and supporting law enforcement in the face of rioting.
