Trump interview, May 2020:
Reporter: "Mr President, I want to ask you one more question, about the 70k American lives that have been lost. Grandparents, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters... we've lost more people now than we lost in the Vietnam War. What do you want to say to those families tonight?"
"First I want to say that we all warriors now. And as warriors, some of them are going to die. I always felt 70 80 90 100 thousand people. And as horrible as that is....we're talking about filling up Yankee Stadium with death. BUT as horrible as that is, the number is probably going to be a lot higher than that."
Just to put things into perspective:
Vietnam War 1961 to 75 - 58k Americans died.
Korean War 1950 to 53 - 36k Americans died.
WW1 -- 116K Americans died.
The Trump virus, Feb to July - 155k Americans died.
Never forget..
