If the US had had an excellent response, similar to S Korea, New Zealand, Australia, Vietnam, or a few others, their covid death rates would translate into under 12k total covid deaths in the US.
If the US had had even a mediocre response, similar to Canada, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Germany, or some others, their covid death rates would translate into hundreds of thousands fewer deaths in the US.

@SamNMman505 Israel is objectively the aggressor by every relevant measure, dumb dumb ...
Modern history: 100 years ago, in 1923, Ze'ev Jabotinsky fully acknowledged that Zionism is colonialism, and that, based on the entirety of history, the natives would fight it until the bitter end. He just didn't care what would happen to them, and promoted doing it anyway. Colonizers are never not the aggressors.
On top of the colonialist nature of Zionism, the Zionists also formed terrorist organizations, like the Irgun and Lehi. They bombed many Palestinian markets and other public places, murdering many civilians, including children, even including Palestinian Jews (who opposed Zionism). Israel merged those terrorists into the new nation's military and intelligence agencies. Israelis elected Menachem Begin, leader of the Irgun, child murderer, Jew murderer, and bomber of the King David Hotel, as PM. Israelis, to this day, celebrate those terrorists as "heroes". Zionists literally taught their neighbours that terrorism is a valid path to independence and statehood, and that terrorists are to be celebrated.
In 1945, it is well documented that Zionists owned just 5% of the land and were a majority nowhere. Israel was formed by actually going against the majority population. It's foundation is completely undemocratic. Then, becoming a majority, in "their" new nation, by ethnic cleansing the actual majority, and then claiming to be democratic, is utter nonsense.
Law: Israel is considered an occupier by the International Court, the UN GA, and the UN SC. Occupiers are also never not the aggressors. Those occupied actually have a right to resist occupation. On the flip side, it is illegal for the occupier to settle occupied lands, and illegal to use collective punishment. Israel is a rogue nation, that doesn't abide by international law. What it has been doing, and is doing now, is illegal.
Current events: This year, alone, prior to Oct 7 ... Israel held over 1200 Palestinian hostages without charges ... over 200 Palestinians had been killed by the IDF and settlers ... over 1000 Palestinians had been displaced by Israel's neverending colonization of the West Bank ... and, Israel continued to operate an open air WWII style fascist ghetto, in Gaza. Even ignoring modern history and law, in no reality did Hamas "start" anything.

Fact: most of "Trump's" economic accomplishments occurred during his first year, while Obama's last budget was still in effect.
Fact: Since Trump's first budget kicked in, when the corporations and the rich could cash in on their tax breaks, which was also about the time Trump started his trade wars, even his own favourite measure, the stock market, says he sucks.
Fact: He mocked safety guidelines encouraging his cult to ignore them, he fought and undermined governors instead of trying to help them, he has bullshitted about US testing rates (the US consistently has a pathetically low trace testing rate), and his incompetence has allowed tens of thousands of excess Americans to die.
Fact: He directly caused the deaths of 700+ Americans, by gathering them together at rallies.
Fact: He has dropped more bombs than Obama, has greatly increased the US's already bloated military budget, and hasn't ended the endless warring.
What do you think his great accomplishments are?
