For the "vaccines don't work so why would I get one" crowd:
Another very easy way to illustrate that the vaccines are not only working, but they're working amazingly well against the delta variant to prevent deaths.
I know a lot of people are profiting from pushing misinformation and the CDC is awful at messaging, but the vaccines work!
Here's yet another easy illustration of how well the vaccines are working: In Virginia, they've only had 17 vaccinated hospitalizations - just 0.0004%!
There are 42x more cases among unvaxxed Virginians even though over half the state (54%) is vaccinated.
This isn't difficult.
Yet another example of COVID vaccines working... if you squint really hard you can see the difference.
This is of San Diego residents and shows that there are 8 cases of unvaccinated cases to every one vaccinated case. Pretty awesome results.
Twitter has the right to suspend whoever they want, and Trump spent months begging them to do so.
But if they want to maintain any confidence in their rules, they need to apply them consistently across the entire spectrum of beliefs.
So far they have not come close to doing so.
Twitter kept Trump's account open because he brought in a ton of valuable traffic, but this week were forced to acknowledge that traffic was also coming from people who were seeking to do harm.
The media did the same thing after giving Trump two billion in free airtime in 2016.
We'll find out soon enough how serious Twitter is about no longer being willing to entertain accounts that promote outright hate, misinformation, and extremist politics.
Trump absolutely deserved to be suspended, but now the real work begins for Twitter to apply that uniformly.
-Trump leads men by 6, Biden leads women by 15.
-Trump leads whites by 11, Biden leads non-whites by 54.
-Biden leads by 6 in the battleground states.
I think this is a big reason that Trump's attacks on Biden aren't moving the needle - Biden's favorables are 16 net points higher.
Voters hated both Trump and Hillary in 2016, but Biden isn't Hillary no matter how much Trump tries to turn him into her.
After months of the Trump campaign saying that Biden is mentally unfit and needs performance enhancing drugs just to get through a speech, Americans still say Biden is more mentally sound to serve effectively as president than Trump.
