No … that is an opinion … your opinion. You couldn’t show any proof of that if you tired.

1st by over a million.

Yeah, but he brought it up by saying that Republicans always bring it up, so you have to give him that. :wink:

Right. Based on absolute numbers the US has done more tests than any other country. We’re 43rd based on per capita. WildRose was decrying my allegedly using absolute numbers - which I have not done - when comparing the US to other countries.

Wear it Jimmy.

Nope. You need to find an example of me comparing the US to another country using absolute (i.e.: not per capita) numbers.

Exactly!

Wear it Jimmy.

Or Obama.
Or Bush.
Or Clinton.

We have done more testing than any other country. I wasn’t the one making the “per capita” argument.

There’s physical limit as to just how many people can be tested even if every hospital and clinic in the country had an unlimited supply of test kits on hand.

We only have about 5,500 hospitals in the entire country and probably about ten times that number of General/FP clinics.

They can only see so many patients per day and most are at near capacity even in good times.

If we could test a million people per day how long would it take to test 150 million people?

Right now we’re at around 120,000 people being tested each day, no other country has come close to that number either.

Sorry, you did not fnd a post of mine that meets the conditions. See the bolded below.

I haven’t even bothered looking.

3 days Jimmy. For me.

@JayJay liked it so much he’s keeping it.

No, I made no such statement.

We also have more cases and more deaths than any other country, based on absolute numbers. Does that mean we have done a worse job than all other countries, or should we consider the numbers on a per capita basis?

Are you asking me to do it as a favor?

I hear all you Trump-haters keep belaboring that point, ad nauseam. What exactly is Trump supposed to be held accountable for, relating to this virus? Is it that he speaks too optimistically, or that he does not always repeat the pessimistic and oft times over the top presumptions made by some of the people around him?

"Why is it you go to “per capita” when defending a Dem stronghold state but never even acknowledge the per capita arguments when comparing the US to other countries?

You of course are not alone in that."

The Art of the Deal. Whitewash my fence… :rofl:

Without looking it up, do you know what “the buck” is?
