Lawrence O’Donnell smirks while essentially accusing Trump of mass murder

Two things are necessary to analyze information: (1) perspective; and (2) recognizing source bias. These tools have never been more useful than now, in a time of coronavirus. We are not the first to suggest that Democrats in and out of the media are exploiting coronavirus for political benefit. Having failed to take President Trump down with the Russia hoax and the faux impeachment, they’re grabbing on to coronavirus, with none more openly virulent than MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, a grinning jack-o-lantern of doom. Here’s some perspective: On March 13, 2020, when President Trump declared a national emergency and mobilized the entire government to fight coronavirus, there were 1,629 cases and 48 people had died. As Sharyl Attkisson detailed, all but five were over 70, with several over 80. Four others were younger but with underlying medical conditions. Seventy-seventy percent of the deaths were in Washington State. The data were different on
October 26, 2009, when President Obama declared a national emergency because of H1N1, which had then been ravaging America for seven months. For a direct comparison to coronavirus, two months after H1N1 got its start, 43,677 people were infected and 302 people had died. By the time Obama announced a national emergency, CNN reported even higher numbers albeit in a calm, rational fashion:

Since the H1N1 flu pandemic began in April, millions of people in the United States have been infected, at least 20,000 have been hospitalized and more than 1,000 have died, said Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
H1N1 originated in Mexico, but Obama left the border open – and did so with media encouragement.MSNBC's @Lawrence O'Donnell peddles the worst kind of fear mongering, claiming that "more people are sick... dead and dying" because Donald Trump is president.
Media bias is so extreme and unbalanced, and so manifestly contrary to coverage during the H1N1 era, that reasonable people must discount media hysteria. Yes, there’s something serious going on here; yes, we should be proactive to flatten the curve; but no, President Trump has not been a disaster. Instead, he’s been on top of things and it’s the Trump deranged media that’s the disaster.
Comment:
Many of we 'Deplorables" were expecting the Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA paid media talking heads to take this opportunity to spew their hateful disinformation and lies. Nothing would please them more than the deaths of thousands of people in the U.S., that they will blame on Trump. This is preparing the way for that accusation.
O'Donnell a self proclaimed Marxist Socialist has proclaimed his life long hate for America makes no bones about it. The fact that he hates Trump is because Trump loves America. O'Donnell did not do any research before this broadcast. He trumpets whatever the DNC and the Marxist Socialist Left say. He sounds intelligent but he is a mean (proven) bitter commie who become rich on capitalism.
All anyone has to do is watch MSNBC once to see that their star talking heads Maddow, Lemon, Mathews, Scarborough, Brzezinski, etc, spew is well aware of their spread of disinformation, biased and hate of anything less than Marxism.
MSNBC, Lawrence and their fellow conspirators have forsaken real journalist factual information to the people to satisfy their Marxist ideology.
