Makes sense that more testing done the higher the number of cases there'd be. Texas hasn't done much testing at all.Originally Posted by Guisslapp

Sorry to bring up old stuff, but you know King David was a deeply flawed dude right? In addition to some of the wonderful things he did, he did some truly wretched things as well. Might want to brush up on his story. I don't think anyone here is expecting Trump to be a new King David, but certainly some might wish for it.
In related news there is a great series of books on the men of the bible Great lives in Gods words by Charles Swindoll. Only woman featured is Esther, but they are good books . David is particularly interesting.
The Christian god also did some wretched things.
I'm very familiar with King David's story. No Psalm 51 in Trump's repertoire...and, we're not Israel.

I'm an asshole! What's your excuse?
There will be many surprises when this all shakes out...and some folks will eat a lot of crow.

Here is what the Dems were doing.
NANCY PELOSI TOUTED IMPEACHMENT WALK TO SENATE AS CORONAVIRUS CAME TO U.S.
Nancy Pelosi Touted Impeachment Walk to Senate as Coronavirus Came to U.S.
Democrats have criticized President Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic, as polls have shown rising approval from Americans over the job he is doing overall and his handling of the crisis.
On Sunday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi claimed Trump was responsible for the loss of American lives.
A former aide to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) reminded Democrats that the same day the first person with coronavirus showed up to the U.S. in Washington state, Pelosi urged Americans to watch House impeachment managers deliver the articles of impeachment against Trump to the Senate.
Pelosi indeed tweeted on January 15: “Tune in as House impeachment managers deliver the articles of impeachment against President Trump to the U.S. Senate.”
According to the CDC, the first patient to have been confirmed positive for coronavirus in the U.S. arrived to the country from Wuhan, China, on the same day, January 15.
On January 23, House impeachment managers made their opening arguments for removing the president to the Senate.
On January 29, Trump formed the White House Coronavirus Task Force.
On January 30, senators began asking two days of questions during the impeachment trial.
On January 31, Trump declared a ban on travel to the U.S. from China, which Democrats criticized as xenophobic.

And what did Trump do about it all through February?
Fact. Trumps achievements are not on par with David, but his failures might be.
And, frankly, I think I'd be a lot more open to moving from my "never Trump" position if he would stop firing every Nathan that calls him out on his BS.

A good summary of the many failings that led to this point.

As an intermediate update - the numbers are already significantly higher. Over 2% based on the data I am looking at.
I found this a good read on the reason why the stockpile of ventilators was so low.

Seems like a lot of people with Newport Medical Instruments may have made a tidy sum while screwing the rest of us.
and another.

Vox...where all good libertarians go to get their unbiased "news".
They make Hannity look like an undecided!
I wouldn’t call that article news. It is more of a summary of how Trump fubar’d our ability to respond to COVID.
