but they politicized the 200K dead
It’s bullshit that is being perpetuated by politicians.
Anything that actually caused the death is considered incidental, the death is attributed to Corona anywayThere's a Yahoo story about a lady who died from it after testing negative twice--she was 89 for heaven's sake.
A friend’s 89 year old aunt died from old age and the doctors marked it down to Covid. Just an anecdote but relevant against people who say this doesn’t happen.
I agree Anecdotes should not be dismissed or diminished. I think people are confusing when someone says. "And now on an unrelated note."
That is not the same sentiment.
I hate it. It's like, dude my dog dying happened and you're telling me it's anecdotal that dogs die? The dog fucking died dip shit. It happened.
Trump locked down and we didn't get 2 million dead, but they politicized the 200K dead, and now are trying to say, the lock down was Trump's idea.
Newt Gingrich said Trump saved 2 million lives.

“This is one of the most important questions the American people need to explore and reach a decision about in the next few weeks,” he insists. “The fact is that at a very early date the president was advised by key public health figures that we had to move decisively or over 2.2 million Americans would die.”
“The president did move very decisively but when he did, people on the left — Biden, Pelosi, Harris and others — all attacked him. Some ridiculed him. Because they said he was doing too much too fast,” Gingrich notes, while inserting a series of video clips backing up his assertion.
“So, let’s put this in context. Let’s look at the facts. I think you’ll see how big the difference was between what President Trump did and what his opponents would have done,” he declares, before running through the chronology of the president’s actions to curb the spread of the virus and the resistance he faced from the Left.

Fauci said in July he did not regret advising against mask in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, but now believed they were very effective in preventing the spread of the disease.
The president also pointed to a recent recommendation against lockdowns from Dr. David Nabarro, the World Health Organization’s special envoy on coronavirus.
“We in the World Health Organization do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” Nabarro said, adding that “by and large, we’d rather not do it.”
“WHO no longer likes Lockdowns – just came out against. Trump was right,” Trump wrote, arguing that the United States lockdowns saved “2,000,000 USA lives!”
