According to the Orange One, that's not a majority.

His math is always perfect because he had an uncle who taught at MIT: his brain is great by assimilation.

H-m-m-m. The Donald is in his own personal Venn diagram. Shared space with others is probably small -- even with his nominal allies.
RE: The Coronavirus - Bob Butler 54 - 07-24-2020
CNN is starting to see cracks in even the best countries that initially held the virus down.
At a guess, the discipline required to hang onto the isolation procedure is missing in more than just our culture. People who were initially willing to follow good advice got tired of it, and relaxed the response. At any rate, there are a number of countries mentioned in the article that initially did well and were lauded for it who are not doing well now.
RE: The Coronavirus - Eric the Green - 07-24-2020
I can make my own article, I think. Countries that had fewer than 500 new cases yesterday (those more-severely affected had over 1000, and the USA had over 69,000).
These are listed going down the worldometer list in order of total cases.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
Italy 306
Canada 432
Qatar 373
China 22
Sweden 53
Belarus 167
Belgium 369
UAE 254
Netherlands 163
Portugal 229

Nepal 147
Ivory Coast 268
Czechia 230
South Korea 59
Venezuela 449
Denmark 42
El Salvador 402
Australia 410
Ethiopia 409
Below this point on the list, are countries that have had less than 10,000 total cases. Those on the list who had below 50 new cases yesterday were:
Norway 26
Malaysia 9
Finland 10
Haiti 21

All other countries have had below 1000 total cases
As you can see, a whole bunch of countries are doing well, including many who were known as doing well. Europe, East Asia and Africa have a lot of countries on this above list.
Now let's see the countries who WERE doing well, but are having a bit of a surge as of yesterday with over 1000 new cases (listed in order going down the list of total cases):
Spain 2615
France 1062
Not too many.

Governor Abbott (R-TX) finally did the right thing in shutting down the bars, places perfectly suited to spreading COVID-19. But some of the bars chose to promote a "Freedom Fest" that defies that ban. Contrast Michigan, which was quick to close bars and slow to allow them to reopen.
If I were the Governor I would be going to the state's liquor licensing agency and asking it to yank liquor licenses. I would be encouraging state and local law enforcement to intensify scrutiny of the areas around those non-compliant bars for DUI offenses.
I can hardly imagine people more likely to spread COVID-19 than heavy drinkers in a celebratory mood.
RE: The Coronavirus - pbrower2a - 07-26-2020
DeSantis (R-FL) and Trump toady on COVID-19.
Want to bet that lots of Arizonans, Iowans, and Floridians had voted for a Democrat for Governor?

It couldn't last. For a while Trump showed signs of at least touching the scientific policies on the virus, but CNN has a piece which suggest he is returning to his old form.
Open up! Go without masks! Be clueless!

What do you expect? This extreme narcissist has himself as the measure of good, and anything that gets in his way is evil. That is the way with all despots, and the differences between them is whether any one despot can get away with what he wants to do.

At one point, his advisors convinced him that he was starting to kill his own followers and, more to the point, voters in key swing states. I guess the message didn't take.
