If one looks at the very top of the referenced link it clearly says OPINION. Title of this thread is a prime example of what is wrong in media today in general (and I mean this for both Left and Right), as it implies the heading as fact which imprints on those too lazy to analyze. I'd prefer to think for myself.

Written by a totally unbiased person -- Newt Gingrich. 
I said before that the death estimates I remember in the beginning of the pandemic was between 100,000 and 250,000 if steps were taken to contain the virus - shutting down if necessary, social distancing and wearing masks. We will be exceeding that 250,000 estimate very soon. We will avoid the 2 million death toll because people have listned to people like Dr. Fauci and Birx and did not follow Trump's example.
Trump has continued to ignore the social distancing and mask wearing advised by most of those in the medical profession. How many people at the White House might have avoided contracting the coronavirus had they done so? Yesterday Trump held a rally in Pennsylvania where few wore masks and everyone was packed together. Having just caught the virus and after his release from the hospital claiming he learned a great deal obout it, one would think he would know better.

Right on Speedracer. Only disagreement is that I think Woodward has proven that he knew and should know better. Only reinforces my thesis to give me FACTS, not opinion, even if you're POTUS. I prefer to think for myself.

Yes it was labeled opinion. But his article is spot on and cannot be contested. With the exception of the lefties who wont give Trump his due!
Trump has saved 2 million people! And kept the economy going!
Trump is a Saint! + 2 million

WD- Do you really want to say that the opinion piece referenced can't be contested?

Not only does it say "Opinion" on it but the article is by newt gingrich.
I'm sure there must be a more biased trump supporter but I'm at a loss to name them.

WD - Off topic from thread, but must point this out. Big T got it and survived... BUT.
He had every precaution unavailable to ordinary citizens (yes, he is POTUS granted), tested daily, contacts tested, etc., yet still got it. OK. shit happens to us all whether we deserve it or not, but he did not follow guidelines for prevention recommended by his own administration. So be it. But, he got it and therefore, by nature of his office, got medical care way beyond that available to the rest of us at OUR expense. Yet the "billionaire" has paid almost no personal federal income tax for years, certainly a hell of a lot less than me.
So back on topic, if you'd like to debate the referenced article against hard facts, I'm game. Only rule is, citation of credible scientific fact, no opinion sources allowed.

Watch the new documentary out today on OnDemand.
It's called (don't laugh) "Totally Under Control"
It should be very revealing.

https://www.newsweek.com/two-million...pinion-1538738The CV19 virus is still infecting people. Newt G. can't give any type of final number regarding how many people Trump did or did not save.
Reality check for the nay sayer lefties!
