Well, at least one good thing could come up from this. This mess could quite possibly cost Trump the re-election. I just wish people didn’t have to die for that to happen .

Facts:

NY State has a population of 19.45M
FL has a population of 21,48M......that's roughly 2M more people

NY State has had over 25,000 deaths
FL has had 5,931 deaths

Anyone connecting the dots here yet?

It's not the number of cases that is all that important. It's the death rate, and NY has it over FL....like roughly 4 times as many dead people, yet again, NY has 2M fewer people..

Then we have long term care residents whose deaths Cuomo was majorly responsible for. NY State = approx 25,000 dead
FL = approx 4,100 dead.

.... Florida reported 9,344 new COVID-19 cases and 78 new deaths on Sunday with 11 percent of all new tests coming back positive.
New York City currently has a 1% positive test rate with 609 new positive cases in the whole state. And people still don't know how to connect dots and comprehend how science works. NYC got it under control by shutting down, masks and social distancing. Florida governor was so keen on being Trump's best friend that people died rather than him doing the right thing. I hope for Florida's sake that he is no re-elected.
It's a mess. My son is waiting for his test results - his job is considered essential.
Hope your son is ok!

This isn’t really directed at you because you are, well, you’re stupid. Pretty much everyone else here is able to use critical thinking so I’ll reply.

New York was the first state to be inundated with this unknown virus. Massachusetts followed along with Michigan, Washington, New Jersey. These states were the top five, give or take in the amount of cases. More people were dying earlier because treatment was unknown.

These states starting shutting down including schools. By June it was clear shut down, masks and social distance slowed the virus and these states were no longer the top five in new cases.

What we learned over the first few weeks was ignored by governors in states that now are in the top for most new cases. California, Florida, Texas, Arizona. Currently 1,000 people are dying every day in the US From the virus. Many needlessly dead because of politics and fighting over the “political correctness “ of mask wearing.

Herman Caine Tweeted about July 4 event - “Masks will not be mandatory for the event, which will be attended by Donald Trump. PEOPLE ARE FED UP! “.

Caine is still hospitalized four weeks after contracting COVID-19 and hasn’t personally been heard from since. Someone Tweets for him.

Absolutely disgusting.
I'm stupid? LMAO That's rich coming from a hateful, ignorant, crazy bitch. You can blow it out your a$$ six ways from Sunday, and you still can't change the facts I posted. You wouldn't know critical thinking if it slapped you upside that sick, twisted head of yours.

As for Herman Cain, he's an adult, who makes his own decisions. He made a stupid decision and now he's paying for it. I guess WAPO didn't tell you that Herman Cain is still in the hospital because he's being treated with oxygen to build his lungs back up. Considering his age, any underlying factors, 3 weeks isn't that long. I saw on the news the other night a man going home from the hospital where he'd been for over 100 days.

Again, you're wrong. Cain didn't tweet about 'no masks required' on or even near a non-existent July 4 rally. The rally was on June 20th. So his tweet would have been in June not July.

WTF part of no one was forced to go to Trump's rally with or without a mask, do you not comprehend?

The stupidty of the left is astounding. Cuomo did nothing but whine for more of everything. He carried on and insisted he needed thousands of ICU beds. Trump (we the taxpayers paid for) had the Javits center converted into a couple of thousand beds, probably 100 patients were treated there, the same goes for the cost of bringing the hospital ship to NYC and convert it. And there were three other field hospitals built that were never used.

Cuomo didn't follow Trump/CDC guidelines about extended care patients when they were released from the hospital. No, he forced the nursing homes, etc. to take covid patients back in the middle of their other residents.

Cuomo spent his time mocking covid and joking on his loser brother's so-called news show. He's a disgusting pos.

Yea, he did such a bang up job of managing covid that he played a big part in killing about 25,000 nursing home, long term care, assisted living residents. And now he's letting terrorists destroy cities in NY.

Someone should commit you to a psych hospital, where you can't hurt yourself. Now run along and play with your WAPO and NYT.
