    I'd add that the US every day is adding somewhere between a third to a half of the cases Canada has in total.

    That province may “behave” like the GOP. But the tea party/Trump sycophants/QAnon people in this country are in a whole other galaxy of stupid. They really are just people that rarely read a book if at all. Mock university’s (yes some criticism of university’s is warranted) question and ignore science at every turn, readily believe in conspiracy theories when it justifies a political angle to argue upon/I could go on with 4 or 5 other things but yeah.

    I said "generally." You are the one that suggested that it was "all" or nothing. There can be various degrees of incompetence. The New Zealand, South Korean, and German government would not be in a "lose lose situation for any government". This semantic stuff is pointless. Its now 7 months in and a thousand people are still dying a day. What are you even talking about? And remember this was suppose to just go away in the heat and the preparation for the fall wave was going to happen now.

    Trump would be correct except like a good used car salesman, he also said he is not responsible at all. So which side of the double talk are you on?

    Bill Gates, much richer and much smarter than Trump, explains the incompetent federal response to the pandemic.

    "And I can guarantee you that number is much higher," says Dr. Natasha Kathuria. "We don't really test kids that often."

    Disagree.
    Easier to isolate a region that is particularly bad. Also easier to trace.

    And yet their more densely populated areas are far better than those in the US.

    Yep...for example:

    Seoul is a very densely populated area. As a matter of fact it is the 6th most densely populated city in the world.
    13 deaths with about 1700 cases.

    Yeah right! He made remarks about 17,000 people losing their lives to H1N1 flu. That is nothing compared to what is happening now.

    Canada is much different, very different, totally different. Many people are saying they have less cases because of the metric system. If they counted cases the real way, like we do, they’d be much worse. Much worse. So much worse. You see the liberal fake news media wont tell you Canada uses a totally different system. It’s so different, bigly different. I like to call it...the metric system. It’s a totally different system. Completely different.

    Word on the Street is that Canada is busing their sick to the USA to make Trump’s numbers look bad.
