More than 150,000. Just Compare death rates in the USA to, say, East Asia, Central Europe and Australia.
But you can’t blame it all on Trump. The CDC, the FDA, the health care system, the governors, and most of all the American people fucked up too. How do you control this when half the population won’t wear masks, social distance or wash their hands correctly? There are probably a lot of people who know or think they have Covid who won’t even stay home while they’re sick.

They think someone else will get it, and if it does happen to them it'll just be a couple weeks with the sniffles. Maybe, maybe not.
It wouldn't matter who is president with those kind of people roaming society....too many with damn the torpedoes we're gonna do whatever we want mentality, they want their freedom and want to get together or go to the beach or party.
