So based on covidtracking.com/api data from yesterday, death totals were at 44,014 for the US. What happened overnight to jump to 50,919? -- (link) - JaxSean Apr 24, 10:44 6

  - Right. If your contact tracing leads to a person who died recently, they are gonna go ahead and find out if that person was exposed -- (edited) - con_carne Apr 24, 10:52
- That's a few days behind. -- (link) - Inigo Apr 24, 10:46 1
  - They say they update daily at 4pm Eastern. They definitely have a different number than the other two sites though. - JaxSean Apr 24, 10:55
- yesterday CNN had 46, closer to 47...new York said they were going to add a lot of never tested cases, lots of unattended at home bodies (10x normal) -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 24, 10:46
- (prior to that, it was averaging ~ 2,000 increases in death per day) -- nm - JaxSean Apr 24, 10:45
Hence the bleachgate distraction. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 24, 10:24 17
- I still say you give him too much credit. He's just stupid. Dumb as a box of rocks is mean to the rocks. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 10:27 16
  - Nah. I agree with you he’s not smart enough to do a strictly politically smart thing. But he’s a very smart TV person and knows how to keep his audien - JackDawson Apr 24, 10:58
  - This. Exactly this. He heard that you can clean surfaces with UV light and Lysol and thought "clean... coronavirus..." Boom. -- nm - Mop Apr 24, 10:45
  - Weaponized stupidity is still just as stupid. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 24, 10:30
  - bleach is just.. dementia. i think immigration ban was to distract from the intelligence committee report. - colin Apr 24, 10:30 11
    - The dementia is a good point. Also, he acts like a tweaker, but we talk about him as if he were sober. -- nm - con_carne Apr 24, 10:38 4
      - it explains so much. physically, his speech patterns, the childishness, forgetting things. he's a mess. -- nm - colin Apr 24, 10:39 3
        
        The dementia thing sure seems the most glaring to me too (but I know not of these things) -- nm - con_carne Apr 24, 11:18
        
        i'm pretty sure there is a shortage of Adderal due Donny's Adult attention deficit disorder -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 24, 10:50 1
        
        that sweet UK sudafed. -- nm - colin Apr 24, 10:51
    - More unglued. -- nm - VMan Apr 24, 10:37 5
      - i feel like if one reporter just wanted to go for it, that person could badger Trump like a child until he lost his mind in a screaming fit. - colin Apr 24, 10:38 4
        
        no, he would be banned, and Donny is a master of 'asymetrical' attacks no excuse me EXCUSE ME EXCUSE ME You are a *nasty* person and a fake news -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 24, 10:43 3
        
        that person would absolutely get banned, but have one shot at it. worth it, i say. -- nm - colin Apr 24, 10:44 2
        
        the "excuse me' talk over stops the line of questioning, and then YOU are nasty, terrible, a liar is his escape, he's no jessup -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 24, 10:48 1
        
        I mentioned it yesterday, hate to give him any credit but, he does a good job pulling up out of his angry nose dives. -- nm - VMan Apr 24, 10:59
