CNN) — After some governors said they'd work on regional plans to roll back stay-at-home orders amid the coronavirus pandemic, two of those leaders warned any reopening still appears far away.

This comes as the death toll from Covid-19 in the United States passed the 25,000 mark Tuesday, according to data tallied by Johns Hopkins University.

And New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in particular said he'd fight in court any federal order to reopen his state's economy if he thought it was premature and endangered New Yorkers' health.

Yeah, right.

Trump can thank Washington and California's early lockdowns for the numbers not being worse.

2. AFAIC, POtuS and his minions are personally responsible

for a good chunk of those. Can't blame them for all the deaths, but my (wild) guess would be 50-60%.

That's about 12,000 to 15,000 people who didn't have to die. 12,000 to 15,000 families who lost a loved one or a wage-earner. And lots more who lost a friend.

Personally responsible.

4. Make that around 30,000...NY added 3700 previously uncounted. n/t
