In my ongoing debate with Warren, I note today that the USA today surpassed Spain in cases of coronavirus SARS-2 covid19 per million. It still has a ways to go to catch up in deaths per million. But it's safer to claim now that the USA is what it seems from the number of total cases: the epicenter of the virus. We see declines in daily new cases and deaths in Spain and other EU nations, because they have competent leaders, where as the USA, Brazil and the UK DO NOT. It is a simple case of the people being deceived into choosing a selfish, fanatical, rightwing neo-liberal Reaganoid/Trumpclone as their leader. The USA is an exceptional nation: exceptionally backward. The choice for 2020 in the USA is clear. It's time after 40 years to go forward again, and to dump Reagan and Trump at all levels of government.
Those countries that acted quickly to shutdown and shelter in place and used testing and quarantines were able to stop the virus and are now able to re-open. These countries are both socialist, democratic and in-between: New Zealand, Australia, Vietnam, China, South Korea, Thailand. The Pacific Rim seems to have it together, while America north and south does not. What Trump fondly hopes for, he is doing exactly the opposite of what is needed to achieve, because he is stupid and only cares about his own position. The people of the USA, the UK and Brazil should consider these facts when they vote the next time. It does help to have competent national leaders.

States that reopened too early, like Florida, Texas and Georgia, have more daily new cases than those who didn't. Southern California is also having more new cases because it reopened too soon. The blue northern states that took action, after having the most cases and deaths earlier, are now seeing fewer daily new cases and deaths.
