GRA:I'm posting this to show everyone an example of what a miserable cu*t writes like--comments of mine mixed in.

To the extent that President Trump discusses those who have died, he does so in self-justifying terms, framing the pandemic as an externally imposed catastrophe that would have been worse without him.
(GRA:Glasser blames Trump,but if you blame Trump for an Asian virus killing Americans,you must blame commies/globalists,Macron,Merkel,Trudeau,Mattarella[Italy],Sanchez[Spain]as well for killing their countrymen.Maybe,just maybe,it couldn't be stopped--no matter what was done.)
In just the past few days, President Trump has blamed immigrants,China, the “fake news” and, of course, “the invisible enemy” of the coronavirus for America’s present troubles.(GRA:Not true?Don't forget blacks).

Despite the flood of words, though, what has struck me the most this week is what Trump does not talk about: the mounting toll of those who have died in this crisis. So voluble that he regularly talks well past dinnertime at his nightly briefings, the President somehow never seems to find time to pay tribute to those who have been lost(GRA:Why would he?Death from disease is not abnormal--in fact,it's the way humans die--period.Glasser is a chronic Trump bitcher--nothing more,nothing less)aside from reading an occasional scripted line or two at the start of his lengthy press conferences,

But the numbers are the numbers, and, notwithstanding Trump’s relentless happy talk, the coronavirus epidemic has, as of this week, already produced some fifty thousand American dead. This is not, needless to say, a best-case scenario, or anything close to it. Just a few weeks ago, a survey of scientific experts predicted forty-seven thousand U.S. dead by the beginning of May, according to the Web site FiveThirtyEight. Instead, forty-seven thousand deaths were recorded by this Wednesday, April 22nd, well before the experts had anticipated. On April 8th, a leading model at the University of Washington had revised its projections downward to forecast a total of sixty thousand American deaths by the beginning of August. But the nation now looks to hit that number by May 1st, meaning that, just a few days from now, more Americans will have died from covid-19 than the entire toll from the Vietnam War. Meanwhile, Trump talks of reopening the country, and of the “tremendous strides against this invisible enemy.”
(GRA:Not everyone is so fortunate as to be a well paid know it all like Glasser--working from home for a 6 figure salary.)
You would think that no amount of Trumpian misdirection could disguise the awful fact that America has more confirmed coronavirus deaths than any country in the world, and that many of them might have been prevented by earlier, more decisive government action when the President was denying that the coronavirus even presented a threat to the United States(GRA:I'll blame minorities for spreading the virus mostly). But Trump is trying his hardest to ignore the covid-19 deaths. To the extent that he discusses those who have died, he tends to do so largely in self-justifying, explicitly political terms, framing the pandemic as an externally imposed catastrophe that would have been much, much worse without him.
GRA:Everyone's day would be much better without a whining Dem like Glasser,who(I'm sure)would find ANYTHING Trump decided on,with regards to the virus,as incompetent or outright murderous.
Show me a column where she's ever complemented Trump and I'll withdraw my description of Glasser as a post-menopausal witch who doesn't have an objective bone in her body.It's the latest political attack on Trump by Dems,who failed at Russiagate,Stormy Daniels,Cohen,Anonymous' stories about saving America from Trump,by circumventing his decisions,white supremacy,hurricane forecasting and whatever else comes to mind.
Susan Glasser should be given a Duranty/Blair award for the same thing she accuses Trump of--incompetence.
