We have become numb to the numbers. But the death toll from coronavirus continues to surge upward. We are about to pass 200,000 mark from the disease. The Lincoln Project puts that in perspective with war deaths America has suffered.

Projections now show 400,000 deaths in the U.S. by January. That’s 400,000 deaths in less than a year.

Trump purposely downplayed the virus when he knew the truth of just how lethal it would be. He’s tried to make it a “blue state” problem and now he’s criticizing the Obama administration’s handling of the H1N1 virus.

So when you hear Donald Trump say he’s done an “incredible job“ handling the pandemic, think about this. Trump may lie but numbers don’t.
