      That's unfair. For all his flaws, Bush II for example was very concerned about epidemics.

          Fair. This current anti-science version of the Republican party then.

          Is it unfair? The war on science began on his watch. Further, is there any R candidate in the last cycle that believed in climate change, argued for the utility of vaccines, or spoke about the value of epidemiologists? This is the Republican Party now. It’s not just Trump.

          If you remove NYC then US did fairly well compared to other countries. Most likely just as we did in Canada.

          Today’s Republicans are very different than Republicans of 20 years ago.

          Likewise, I don't see @SenatorRomney having screwed this up so badly.

          Bush barely belongs in the current Republican Party.
