If you want to know how Major Media cover a GOP POTUS vs a Dem POTUS, see coverage of Trump (who locked out China early; handed off policy to Fauci; gave states what they asked for) versus coverage of Cuomo; (20K deaths — the worst rate per million in the world).
NY has 19.5 million people and 20K Covid deaths. That’s 975 deaths per a million people.

931 deaths per 1 million population in NJ (also a Dem governor)

692 Belgium

548 Spain

485 Italy

433 UK

283 Sweden (which did no lockdown but it’s too soon to know full impact).
The main attack on Trump regarding Covid is nationwide deaths. Ok, but why give a pass for the two governors whose states have almost HALF of all nationwide deaths? I doubt that all a Governor does is ask Federal gov for stuff. They have more responsibility than this.
Cuomo keeps repeating - as late as today! - that Covid cost are lives but shutdown costs are only economic. Really? See years of data showing the human cost to economic downturns: Suicides, Drug ODs to more cancer deaths. Forget studies. See news from NY of April 2020!
Frieden was Obama’s CDC guy for EIGHT years!

You KNOW that if a Dem was in the WH, Frieden’s take would have had now 50K Retweets and instead of trolling @PressSec today, she would have been asked by @jeffmason1 why we are not moving quicker to open (with distancing measures).
