I would be willing to bet that the people dying in Biden counties aren't Biden voters anymore. And I'd also bet that outside the first couple month, deaths have skewed towards Trump voters more and more and are probably now like 8 to 1.

And even in the cities now where some people are still dying, I bet the ones who aren't Trump supporters are non voters.

It's not '5x as many Americans', it's 'at a 5x higher rate'.

They love them some Trump to their last breath.

But the virus keeps on rolling. Trumpers have their own method for gaining herd immunity.
