Rachel Maddow points out that because the outgoing administration did such a poor job organizing a response to the coronavirus, their statistics like case count and death totals are inconsistent and unreliable. So, since data is the foundation of measuring a policy's success, the Biden administration began with, among others, an executive order on data collection. Aired on 01/22/2021.

@Nota Bene if you believe a known documented liar and proponent of fraud…that’s on you
@Gabe Dudley have you done the bleach injections and floodlighting your insides yet?
It really works! Made the trumpflu go away back in april and may and june and july also in august it disappeared and everyine definitely stopped talking about it after nov bc donald said so 🤣😭
No one was
Trump didn’t understand the purpose of testing. it’s the surveillance mechanism on where the virus is proliferating so one can contain it.
Evangelical Kool-Aid drinkers are the enemies among us: what data from CDC?

Democrat Presidents should charged more for cleaning up the Mess left by Republican Presidents. It’s seems to be a Pattern since WW1.
Facts
Absolutely!
“I really believe the Republicans are just too crazy right. I mean, what’s going on [in that party] is just nuts.”
― The Donald @ interview with NBC News’ “Meet the Press”, October 1999
“In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat. I’ve been around a long time. And it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn’t be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats. …we’ve had some pretty bad disaster[s] under the Republicans.”

Team Trump, the GOP, et al, have blood on their hands.
“I think if this country gets any kinder or gentler, it’s literally going to cease to exist.”

Make that “oceans of”, and you’ll be closer to the truth. Between the pandemic and all the rest… yeah. Red is definitely their color.

The following is a breakdown of the federal deficit by presidents in the last 50 years
USA Today
December 31, 2020
Richard Nixon 1969 – 1974
Baseline: $3.2 Billion SURPLUS
Exited Office: $6.1 Billion Deficit
Gerald Ford 1974 – 1977
Baseline: $6.1 Billion Deficit
Exited Office: $53.7 Billion Deficit
Jimmy Carter 1977 – 1981
Baseline: $53.7 Billion Deficit
Exited Office: $78.9 Billion Deficit
Ronald Reagan 1981 – 1989
Baseline: $78.9 Billion Deficit
Exited Office: $252.6 Billion Deficit
George H. W. Bush 1989 – 1993
Baseline: $152.6 Billion Deficit
Exited Office: $255 Billion Deficit
Bill Clinton 1993 – 2001
Baseline: $255 Billion Deficit
Exited Office: $128.2 Billion SURPLUS
George W. Bush 2001 – 2009
Baseline: $128.2 Billion SURPLUS
Exited Office: $1.4 Trillion Deficit
Barrack Obama 2009 – 2017
Baseline: $1.4 Trillion Deficit
Exited Office: $665.4 Billion Deficit
Donald Trump 2017 – 2021
Baseline: $665.4 Billion Deficit
Exited Office: $966 Billion Deficit
Clinton and Obama were the only presidents to lower the deficit in the last 50 years.
Erlene King told USA TODAY she believes it is “100% true.”
“A Democrat is mostly elected after a Republican screw things up. Then Republican Senators become fiscally responsible, forcing the Democrat to just fix the problem and never vote for social programs,” she wrote. “Thus the lower deficit.”
“I really believe the Republicans are just too crazy right. I mean, what’s going on [in that party] is just nuts.”

The absolute negligence of this man is astounding.
so name 1 neglectful thing your accusing Biden of and I’ll name 10 things trump screwed you on:: I’ll take the first move:: https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/the-complete-listing-atrocities-1-1-056
@Manuel the man is on day 2. Don’t be incompetant of the issue that clearly is from the previous administration.
@James Lovelace Biden that he will be ready on day one. He wasn’t.
It’s not negligence, negligence is where you do nothing. Trump has been actively evil from the beginning.
@James Lovelace Yo, I don’t think this Manuel guy was making his argument in good faith, so trying to correct him as if he doesn’t know something wont help. He does know, he’s just wants to sew division and spread misinformation because he’s been brainwashed into thinking that our new president is his enemy.
Trump has two modes of operation. Malfeasance and incompetence though he often combines the two.
Biden should hire that lady from Florida who was sacked by DeSantis for not “Faking” the figures.
She started her own private data collection and reporting website to counter the states misleading and false reporting.
@Cay K I call BS, Boris.
@L W BS for what? I put a comment, another person fact checked me, I thanked them for the correction.
@Wildflower Yeah, as a nation, we dropped the ball on every aspect of this crisis. It’s eye opening and frightening to see just how tenuous civilized society and democracy truly are.
@SD4philly Yes, now they are available, even in somewhat remote areas. Back then, we had few tests available. I called the health department every week, and even the workers there were beyond frustrated about it. I was not surprised to learn yesterday that when Biden’s team looked for the plans that were in place so they could update them, they discovered there was no plan. Trump’s team literally neglected to even make a plan to fight COVID-19! Now the immunizations are not being handled well and tons of doses are missing. When things are that screwed up, how could they possible have the numbers correct?
@CognitiveDissonanceKills I absolutely agree. Hopefully this close call woke a lot of people up, and we will do much better in the future.
I had a feeling there was a cover up.
tRump is Accountable!!!
Arrest him NOW!!!
Now Biden is accountable, + 4142 covid deaths under Biden presidency!!
This is beyond endurance. The bloody-handed Republican Party must be destroyed.
I love Rachel’s tude. She has such a sardonic cynical humour. Hate to get on her bad side tho😬
They made no mistakes. This was the intended result.
Ouch.
Yes they are on record aiming for Herd immunity. That’s why they were trying to rush the economy back open and sending the kids to school.
The Southern Strategy.
We lived through a period of not having a president and a senate that didn’t want one.
It’s like watching an episode of Hoarders: The White House….lol
That man should be sued for genocide fir the killing of Americans in their own country by an incompetent old goat.
Democide
Who would have thought that the failed business man and unentertaining reality TV show host would make for such an awful President.
