When you see a partisan rating by leftist, and one that doesn’t have Carter in the bottom ten, can easily be discounted and laughed at.
I love how Democrats are blaming Trump for the pandemic. It reality they predicted millions upon millions of deaths and that is nowhere close to reality, so in that respect, off the leftist thinking, he did a great job on corona.
Latest daily US Covid deaths is 1500. Projecting that rate by election day it would be 300,000 and 709,000 in a year making this the worst epidemic in US history. We can hope that rate will improve and it might but it has been getting worse.
Meanwhile:
Current daily deaths
India 942
China 81
South Korea 56
Japan 4
Russia 129
UK 879
Brazil 703
US 1499
Why is the US response to the pandemic the worst in the world if it is not the leadership? The US received the complete genome of the virus and the genetic sequencing at same time as the rest of the world, in the first week of January. The US has the premier disease prevention agency in the world, the CDC, more hospitals beds per person, a leader in medical and virology research, more epidemiologists, more doctors, more hospitals, more medical schools. John Hopkins found the US to be the best prepared nation in terms of medical infrastructure of any nation. So why are we leading all nations in deaths?
I would be suspicious of several of those numbers. India has been accused of undercounting fatalities. China and Russia have authoritarian governments who routinely suppress bad news.
