Honestly, a lot of Trump supporters are looking at thst distinction right now. They don't want to admit they voted for, and supported, the man who said everything was fine, that he was in complete control (even over state governments) and that the President was responsible for lethal outbreaks...and then watched 400,000 and rising awfully fast Americans die. They'd be saying things like "come on, I only voted for the guy that killed 200,000 Americans. 300,000 tops!"
"You can't blame Trump for all those deaths" is, by the way, one of the lamest-ass, limpest-dick defenses of IMPOTUS I've yet seen. Holy shit, some Trump supporters are crying into their single scoop of ice cream today, aren't they? It's way up there with "Your Honor, in all fairness, when the police were shooting back at my client they also shot someone. Surely my client isn't responsible for that death?"
(Yes he is)
Remember, Trump said he was responsible for saving millions of lives.
Where was @Kellhound at any point past May 11 saying "Whoa whoa whoa! Trump wasn't responsible for saving all those lives!"In every way the best economy in the history of the world. We were blowing away China. We were blowing away everybody. We were the envy of the world and then they came in and they explained it, and they said, sir, you have to turn it off. We have to close the country. And I said, say it again. They said, sir, you have to close the country. Nobody ever heard of a thing like this but they were right because if I didn't we would have lost two million, two and a half million, maybe more than that people, and we'll be at 100,000, 110,000, higher -- the lower level of what was projected if we did the shutdown, but still you're talking about -- I say two Yankee stadiums of people
Actually I'll be fair. Hey @Kellhound if you can find the post where you contradicted Trump for saying he'd saved two million or more lives, then all of this goes away. Like, right now. Because you'd prove you weren't a hypocrite.
I'd suggest you start looking now -- the Shitshow thread has thousands of pages. Finding the post where you said this might take a while.
