A battery of scribes from Washington Post has posted a diatribe on how their president is mishandling the Corona virus. The article falls just short of accusing him of actually causing the plague.
An important part of this scriptural assassination attempt is accusing the prez of posting inaccurate numbers.
Trump is accused of comparing the 22 corona virus deaths in the US with 37,000 deaths due to the flu virus in a previous year and the average of 27,000 to 30,000 deaths due to the flu annually.
Apparently, these "analysts" from the Post feel it is highly undiplomatic for the president to try to put some unwelcome perspective upon the importance the media is assigning the infection.
While it is uncertain who to blame; media hype like that from the Washington Post, or the social media, apparently President Trump does not view the international panic as a return of the Black Death.
