As of April 16th, there have been over 31,000 US deaths from COVID-19. The first documented US death was on February 29th. With social distancing and other measures, the curve of illnesses is flattening, but deaths will continue.

The poll question is simple: if the nation continues to keep shut down without a vaccine, a cure or access to speedy, cheap testing, will there be more than the high end of projected US flu deaths (62,000) or less by the November election?

Much has been made by Trump that COVID-19 is just another flu bug and he thinks the nation should open up for business as usual....although he refuses to order that to be done.

Obviously Trump is looking at the election. Dead Americans don't matter to him but the economy does. With the nation shut down, the stock market is in the dumper and will stay there for months after the nation is back to normal.

Social distancing is working. If our nation goes back to normal operations, social distancing isn't possible. If Trump is wrong about COVID-19 being no worse than the flu, the numbers of dead Americans will rise dramatically....which is why I think he won't order the country back to work.

How many times, my dear, have you told us that this virus is no worse than the common flu.

That is why he is setting up the Governors as the scapegoat

Trump will come out with some generalized statement, something nondefinative that he can alter as needed and deny later on, and then in October of events stay the same, he will proclaim he tried to restore the economy but the Governors wouldn't follow thru

Bet? If the mods say I only have one account, then you pay a $100 donation in my name to this forum. If they say I have more than account (and reveal the names) then I'll pay. Deal?

What do deaths from a virus have to do with an election? Do you think this is a good thing for Biden? :rolleyes:

Agreed. Trump is a gutless coward; always has been, always will be. He never accepts responsibility for failure or takes the full blame. He just takes the credit. The economy is an example: He claimed credit for it doing well and passed the buck when it failed.

They are going to lie, as much as you do honey bunny. You can change you ID's but you can't change your writing style or verbiage. There are certain words and expressions that give you away every time.

ROFLMAO So everyone is conspiring against you? Fascinating.

Why didn't you vote in the poll? Like TD, are you afraid to take a stand?

When did Trump say this is just another flu bug? Do you have a direct quote to support that assertion?

Wrong; obviously the PHONY media and Party of the Jackass are looking at the election and thinking that by causing mass hysteria, they can get Dementia Joe elected. How sad and pathetic is a political party that represents nothing but anti-Trumpism uses such a crisis for political advantage.

Rahm Emanuel: "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before."

This is a dumb lie. But then, you are mentally unstable and have a serious case of TDS. ;)

So far, only .0019% of the population has tested positive and only .000085% have died. Is that worth losing 20,000,000 jobs for?

rom October 1, 2019 and February 29, 2020. During that period, an estimated 34 to 49 million people have been sickened with the flu, with 350,000 to 620,000 hospitalized. The estimated deaths from the flu is between 20,000 and 52,000 people.

So what is greater? 632,656 or 49,000,000? 28,160 or 52,000? 632,656 or 49,000,000?

So Governors are not accountable for what happens in their state? When did that happen dumbass?

I think it was just yesterday all you leftist ass clowns were declaring that Trump can't tell states what to do. Which is it, you lying hypocrite?

What a massive pile of buffoonish speculative bile. Do you ever have anything connected to reality and the truth to say?

Disagreed but, out of boredom before I start some chores, what other usernames do you think I have? I'm guessing you won't name any just like I knew you wouldn't take the bet. Like TD, all you have is a trolling keyboard and a bitter attitude about life. Sad.
