Let's see... In the US the Fauci plague death rate over all is about 1.5% of total cases. This would give about a rate of 4% by the article cited death rate. Of course, other factors in this disparity are not considered such as the age of the population in the locales claimed to have this higher rate. If the population were significantly older, then a higher rate would be expected and that would have ZERO to do with Trump or the person's political affiliation.
After all, the overwhelming single indicator of increased death rate from Fauci plague is age. As age increases, the death rate increases.
I suspect much of this article's findings are cherry picked and a fallacy of Affirming the consequent. That is, the data is selected to give the wanted outcome ignoring other factors--like age. The resulting argument goes essentially Because the death rate in counties that went to Trump, it's Trump's fault the death rate is high... or something like that. It's at best a tenuous and specious argument, and at worst nothing more than nonsense from a deceptive lie.
