The virus death toll in the U.S. could top it's military losses in WWII by election day. Lead on Mr. Trump. That's what you call winning!

Not if you keep it out of the nursing homes and away from the obese, insulin intolerant, elderly and immuno depressed people.  If you do this, there will be virtually no deaths from covid 19.  It's a big ask with the US population eating garbage and being obese, but it can be done with discipline.

Your idiosyncratic alternative definition of lie is as good as Giuliani’s “truth is not truth”. Can’t get better than that but sir you did surpassed. 

No, it's the quintessential primary definition of lie.

 

In other words, either you didn't know the real definition, or you lied.

If Trump keeps the U.S. "winning" at this pace, he's going to end up having to convert some of his golf courses into cemeteries -- because there won't be enough room in the existing ones for all the dead bodies piling up.... 

 

Heck, he probably would even consider it to be a good real estate / business investment -- at least as good as all the other ones he's done with other people's money.

No, hes just a tool who went on a little rant on primetime CNN defending the protests saying there isnt any reason for the protests to be peaceful (literally the very first amendment says otherwise) and who lied about being in quarantine, broke quarantine and got into an altercation with a dude, then lied about that and had a big dramatic "Coming out of basement quarantine" segment, again, on primetime CNN - all a lie.

Almost 43% of the population of the USA qualifies as obese. That would mean a lot of people in isolation. 

West Virginia leads the nation in those obese. Anyone we know from there, who could that be?

Honestly, have you EVER seen a MAGA say "By gosh, you're right. He DOES lie!" ???

I've started sending them to the Phantom Zone of ignore list. They're a waste of time. It still boggles the mind how anyone can follow such a lying, deceitful idiot, they're all running willfully into a dictatorship. At least Ann Coulter has the honesty, the decency, to tell the truth and call Trump an out and out a liar.

Ah, the quintessential of lie is a noble art form of Trump in his whole adult life. Surely you know that or you are lying; again.

And the stellar cast at the White House, such caring People serving folks say nothing. Trump disabled the task force and has sent most of the folks in it back to their other day jobs. I watch press briefings every other day and they say zip absolutely zip about this. I pity the US people, although they got exactly what they voted for.

That day the "birther" came down the escalator I decided to check out Thailand.

I am asking you .

What did Don cover up about corvid ?

The following might help you understand why trump is responsible for many thousands of deaths in the US.........

 

US timeline mistakes……

 

Back in January, when US intelligence agencies first started to warn Donald Trump about the threat the virus posed, his instinct was to brush it off.

 

Trump did not want to spook the financial markets. Even after China finally acknowledged there was significant human-to-human transmission of the virus, he consistently downplayed the danger.

 

On January 22, CNBC asked the President whether he was worried about the virus becoming a pandemic.

 

"No, not at all," he said.

"We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine."

 

At the start of February, having been convinced by his staff to announce restrictions on travel from China, Trump said the problem had been dealt with. On February 2, he told Fox News host Sean Hannity partial travel ban had "pretty much shut it down".

 

On February 14, he suggested the virus would simply go away as the United States headed into its summer months.

 

"There's a theory that, in April, when it gets warm – historically, that has been able to kill the virus," said Trump.

 

By February 26, there were 60 confirmed cases in the United States, and that number was rising steadily. "We're going down, not up. We're going very substantially down, not up," Trump claimed, contradicting his own administration's health officials.

 

"As they get better, we take them off the list, so that we're going to be, pretty soon, at only five people. And we could be at just one or two people over the next short period of time."

 

He also compared the coronavirus to influenza.

 

Trump repeatedly downplayed the virus and dismissed fears about its potential spread in the United States as media "hysteria".

 

He did this until mid-March, when he finally started to take the pandemic seriously – and abruptly switched to claiming he had known how bad it was all along.

 

"I've always known this is a, this is a real, this is a pandemic," he said on March 16.

"I felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic.

 

"I've always viewed it as serious."

 

That simply was not true. As other world leaders did their best to prepare for the crisis, Trump pretended there was nothing to worry about.

 

In late February, he said there were only 15 coronavirus cases in the United States, understating even then the actual number, and declared that "the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero." In the annals of the American presidency, it would be hard to recall a more catastrophically wrong prediction. Even after he later acknowledged that it would not be zero, he insisted the death toll would fall "substantially below the 100,000" mark.

 

[Lacessit]

All Biden has to do is run the video of Trump saying it's nothing to worry about, and superimpose the running death toll and number of active cases. 117,000 dead, 1.1 million active cases. Anyone voting for Trump after seeing that is divorced from reality.

Do you know what a lie is ?

It is saying something that you know not to be true at the time of saying it 

If you say that you are going to do something in the future  that you fully intend to do , if you dont end up doing it , that wouldn't actually be a lie .

You’d do well in advertising or politics sonny. 
 

Is that the sound of the tsunami of Mexican money paying for it all that I hear? Must be, cause you said it’s not a lie!

My personal favorite is how Trump, after downplaying the impact and severity of the virus for two months, did an about-turn (together with his best buddy Hannity) at the end of March, suddenly and without batting an eye called it a pandemic and said he had called it a pandemic long before anyone else did. And not a single peep was heard from the MAGA-crowd about this 180.
