yes, because as far as i know, our
mortality rates are lower than elsewhere. i also credit out healthcare system. i also believe the models were deeply flawed, because the assumptions that the models rely on, were flawed. imagine trying to model the effects of climate change, which have a larger number of variables.

still not sure this is a republican issue. i saw a democrat legislator from michigan ( a black woman) on tv with her doctor. they are both convinced that hydroxychloroquine saved her life. i don’t know what republican vs democrat had to do with it, except that democrats are consumed by TDS.

That has little to do with a national strategy, it’s mostly because people have followed orders from their state governments.

I stated this like last week or so ...Trump supporters were going to 1 say Trump saved us because Many more could have died
or 2 Trump saved more lives than the experts predicted
and social distance or experts will play no role in the out come..

so all the beds built by the army corps of engineers, the masks and ventilators being produced by the private sector thanks to enacting certain policies, aren’t having an effect?
but you have a point...in these cases, state and local
governments will
do more to move the needle, which is why i think they should
have more authority than the feds.

That's called federalism. Spence is a statist of the Progressive order--one state, one central government, administered by some kind of authority such as a President, or whatever they wish to call it.
