America's BEST American: Impartial and Bipartisan
Trump: COVID-19 death toll of 100,000 would signal "we all together have done a very good job"
He says the U.S. toll could have reached 2.2 million without political intervention.

Trump thinks that if 100,000 Americans die he's doing a fine job. Just look at how things have gotten worse and worse under his fake leadership. In January he claimed we had it totally under control. In February he implied it would go away on it's own. In March he admitted that he didn't even know that people die from the flu.
Remember Trump's own words.
