Joe Biden Has Now Murdered More Americans Than Donald Trump!

Before I get into the substance of this post, I should make clear that my use of "murdered" in the title is used solely to mock the propaganda press that blamed every COVID death during Trump's presidency on Trump but has not blamed COVID deaths under Biden on Biden. The truth is that neither occupant of The White House committed murder or is responsible for America's COVID deaths. With that explained, let's get on with the statistics.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, on October 22, 2020, there were 228,591 deaths in the United States attributed to COVID. On that day, candidate Joe Biden tweeted of President Trump, "Anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain President of the United States."
So why didn't Joe Biden resign on September 3, 2021 when COVID deaths during his administration exceeded that same count under Trump? Because it was meaningless political rhetoric when he said it. So I do not blame Biden for hypocritically going about his business. But I do hold in contempt the dishonest activists posing as journalists in the so-called "news' media who peddled fake news to attack Trump and are now peddling fake news to support Biden. Remember, fake news doesn't need to be false. Fake news can also be the result of editorial decisions to hype certain stories while suppressing others. And so it has been with COVID.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, there were 424,408 COVID deaths in the United States from the beginning of the pandemic through January 20, 2021. That was the day President Trump's presidency ended, and Joe Biden moved into The White House.
Two days ago, on January 16, 2022, the United States officially hit 849,448 cumulative deaths attributed to COVID. That means more Americans have died with COVID under Biden than died with COVID under Trump. So where is the news story about it? I haven't seen it anywhere. But I can't possibly be the only person in the media to do the math, can I? No. And that is the purpose of this post. I do not blame Biden for the COVID deaths that occurred since his inauguration. And I didn't blame Trump for the deaths before it. But the fake news blamed Trump for every death. And many blame him for today's deaths also. Why? To score political points. And that is disgraceful.
When COVID cases increased while Trump was in office, the propaganda press blamed it on Trump. But now that Biden is in office, that same propaganda press blames the increase on the virus. The double standards of the so-called "news" media are disgusting. And dangerous.
But none of this means no president is responsible for the COVID deaths. One president is; President Xi Jinping of China. But the fake news wouldn't dare say that.
