No answer eh. I'm not surprised, since it would be like asking how many people exactly in total have contracted covid 19? Nobody really knows. All we can do is guess, yet make exaggerated claims based on the absolute worst possible case scenario we can actually prove.

The point is why is it always 100% the leaders fault? Even when the leader does decide to fire somebody for making poor decisions or giving them bad opinions/info, it still somehow always ends up only their fault.

Based on this mindset, I can only assume you believe it's 100% the Japanese leaderships fault that Nagasaki and Hiroshima were nuked? The Americans warned them, and the Japanese leadership didn't do what was necessary to protect their people, so Truman and America are entirely blameless?

As I've stated in the past, I'm not saying that the leadership would be devoid of blame, but that blame get's divvied up, and would start at the source. Meaning China get's the majority of the blame. If you also want to assume everything the experts say is undeniable truth and will certainly happen, just because they were more right than wrong this time around, then good luck with that in the future.

Using this to add to the 'endless' list of negatives as to why Trump shouldn't continue to be Prez is one thing, but assuming a worldwide pandemic could be kept out of one large free multicultural country, solely by it's main leader, and that because it wasn't, they're going to lose the next election because of it, is simply wishful thinking for some. 

Eric, I don't live in China. How they screwed up in the beginning is irrelevant to me right now.  What does concern me right now is how my own government screwed up. 

And please stop with the analogies. 

That's a pretty odd way to look at the world. Another country, or countries in this case, make terrible decisions, leading to your country suffering because of it, and all you care about is blaming your own leadership? If I were the leader of another country, especially a lousy leader, people with that type of mindset worldwide would be my best friends. No matter how bad I screw up, I can do little to no wrong. Speed past go, collect however much I want. I wonder why other countries don't go out of their way more often to trouble America?

Ok, but at least it wasn't a poor one that needed to be corrected this time.
