According to you:

I ASSUME you are saying the US watched it burn.

There are 67 countries in the list you posted with higher death rates than the US.  Countries like Mexico, Bolivia, Egypt, Iran, Syria, CHINA, Afghanistan, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Sweden, Ireland, and France, to name a few, all higher than 2.1%.

Most of the countries lower than the US have populations much, much smaller than the US, many with fewer people than most of our states have individually.  It's much easier to control and treat a small population versus 326M people like the US.  That's why percentages don't tell the whole story.  The number of hospitals, doctors, nurses, beds, ventilators, cases of medications, and masks is so much smaller and easier to produce and/or procure for a smaller country -- even stockpile -- so fighting the virus is not on the scale it is in larger countries.

I also notice that Sweden, the UK and Canada all have higher death rates than the US.  How can that possibly be?  Aren't these some of the fantastic SOCIALIZED MEDICINE countries that keep getting used as examples the US needs to follow?  Hmmmm??

So, which is it?  Did the US succeed in lowering the death rate from COVID-19 better than most other developed countries, or did Trump just sit and "watch it burn?"

I wouldn't call social security commie, but yes socialist.  I would also call strong military/LE both communist and fascist.

I would call  your train of thought also an oxymoron.  You don't want big government overreach, but yet OK with them forcing people to wear mask and vaxxx.  Then fall back on the "life and liberty" in the constitution for those who are wearing mask/vaxxed against those who are not wearing a mask/vaxxxed, for their own safety.  Because people vaxxed/masked have a right to life and liberty.

In WWII, Hitler didn't just start murdering the Jews.  He had the German people and others believe that they were a problem.  So bad a problem that German citizens were ratting out their Jewish neighbors to the Nazis/gestapo. And forced Jews to wear armbands so they can be identified easily.  By the people believing a problem existed and "all for the greater good", he got the people on board and they were OK with the government doing what they did.

Do you not see the progression with COVID?  First it exist.  Then told to closed businesses.  Then wear a mask. Now we are on the vaxxx phase.  You cannot do X,Y,Z unless you have a vaxxx.  What comes after mass vaxxx is people who are not vaxxed will be segregated and put somewhere.  Then what happens after that will be worst.  Cause you know, all in the name of the greater good.

don't confuse him with facts
his kind prefers feelings...

I know its a bit of a oxymoron, but many people deal with similar trains of thoughts.  Vaxx is not a race,  so its not like the jews.  I fail to see how covid can become anything like that. I personally think everyone should be vaxxed if they want to be in public but thats just my opinion. You cant drive without getting a license, and a car that's X, Y, Z.  There's hundreds of things similar to that.

Then again. I believe in genetic edited super humans and that's Hitler like.  Not everything is black and white.   Just like my political views I am not stuffed into one box of thinking.

And those states dont have as high testing or false results, so we are back full circle of not knowing the real numbers.

Your lack of imagination (and acceptance of reality & historical truth) is irrelevant.  "I fail to see how" is not an argument.  it's an admission that you just don't understand the facts.

HIV/AIDS was EXACTLY how CMO explained it.  When the retrovirus was first identified in "Gay men and Haitians,"  the press even used the name "GRID" -- Gay-Related Immune Deficiency.  It became normal to shun homosexuals as "plague carriers".  They were fired from jobs, excluded from sports, etc.  Until the disease was discovered in the blood supply and heterosexual celebrities contracted it, the disease was a Scarlet Letter identifying people being punished for their depravity.

I guess you would have to have been born before 1975 to remember the 80s at all.

And those states dont have as high testing or false results, so we are back full circle of not knowing the real numbers.

Then why post GOP states have "high" COVID numbers?

I admit, I was too young to know what happened.  I did see clips on TV many years later when Princess Di shook the hand of a HIV/AIDS person. They said it broke a barrier that showed you cannot get it just by shaking someones hand.  It was one of those VH1 80s/90s retro look back shows.  I also saw the movie Philadelphia.

This thread is surreal.  Like those shows on alien abduction and stuff level. . .

The problem is, we have a person pushing for policies and laws that historically proved to be bad.

He is repeating it, because he never learned about it.

Those who erase the past are bound to repeat it.

I don't think they teach history these days.  I've been hearing of more school districts, particularly in CA, banning books from reading list.  Latest is To Kill a Mockingbird due to concerns about racism. . .

Racism is part of America's history.  Not a particularly proud aspect of history, but still should taught, not covered up or ignored. . .

because it fits his narrative
like how he doesn't recognize that the democrat cities in the red states are an issue
an inconvenient truth...

Or maybe gop who don't tend to like masks and belive they don't work are now feeling the consequences of said belief. 

And if it wasn't known.  I think it should be criminal to spread aids knowingly and should be tested for population wide. Along with other diseases.

And yes I think vaccines should be mandatory for participatingin public areas. Don't spread your diseases to me cause you don't believe in science.  It violates my freedom of not catching your shit.
