You are making excuses.

UT, TX, FL.. these are not "poor" states, but they are Trumpster states.

You're making a fool of yourself. Poor people are not getting vaccinations in blue metro areas and blue states. A smart, decent person gets that every vaccination makes the rest of us safer. There's a vast number of unvaccinated in deep blue areas and that is absolutely worth noting.

Lastly: please stop letting Trump own your attention. He's gone, in case you didn't know.

Let's look at the top 20 states in terms of deaths per 100k people.

LA, MI, PA. IN, GA, and MS.

Infection rates?

LA, MI, PA, SD, GA, IN, and MS.

Now maybe the governors of TN/SC/GA/FL opening too soon might lead to more outbreaks like the one around Albany NY or Rapid City SD, but as of now? It's the red states doing better on average.

TX is barely getting hit, with an infection rate 1/4 that of the national average and a death rate 1/10th the national average.

FL? Infection rate about half and a death rate about a third.

GA? Infection rate about two-thirds and a death rate about half.

What will the rejoinder be if TN, FL, GA, and SC re-open without massive amounts of illness and death by the end of May?

I mean I'm smart enough to realize it's the 2nd or 3rd inning of a 9 inning game, but come on, facts are facts right now. The red states are just doing better now.

I'm tired of hearing what a great job Governor Cuomo is doing. From where I can see it, he's presiding over infection rates TWICE that of Lombardy, and death rates that are approaching Lombardy. THAT's the model of our response right now?

I'd rather hear from Inslee, Newsome, or Brown (Oregon Gov). They seem to, well, actually be succeeding. The Northeast - and I include Maryland in this - needs to just stop telling red states what to do. They've failed to stop the virus, and to stop the deaths. Maybe the governors of MN or NM, too, they seem to be leading a decent blue state response to this virus.

This virus isn't some liberal avenger, punishing the dumb Trumpies for their dumb choices.

Either from density or from dumb luck, the blue states are getting slammed and the red states getting spared.

If it's density, maybe density isn't the solution to all our problems.

You need to look at it through the lense of Trumpsters. Covid pandemic was a hoax, so why should Trump have responded any differently.

If it was such a hoax, maybe they should have just let him have tea with lemon and honey to treat his own severe case of covid rather than moving heaven and earth to get him monoclonal antibodies which, if IIRC, weren’t FDA approved at the time either.
