Covid-19 has created a crisis throughout the world. This crisis has
produced a test of leadership. With no good options to combat a novel
pathogen, countries were forced to make hard choices about how to
respond. Here in the United States, our leaders have failed that test.
They have taken a crisis and turned it into a tragedy.

The magnitude of this failure is astonishing. According to the Johns
Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering,1 the United States
leads the world in Covid-19 cases and in deaths due to the disease,
far exceeding the numbers in much larger countries, such as China. The
death rate in this country is more than double that of Canada, exceeds
that of Japan, a country with a vulnerable and elderly population, by
a factor of almost 50, and even dwarfs the rates in
lower-middle-income countries, such as Vietnam, by a factor of almost
2000. Covid-19 is an overwhelming challenge, and many factors
contribute to its severity. But the one we can control is how we
behave. And in the United States we have consistently behaved poorly.

You simply can't compare those primarily homogeneous counties with the US. You own article says it best: "But the one we can control is how we behave. And in the United States we have consistently behaved poorly."

"we have consistently behaved poorly" Not the POTUS. The general population, of which about half have been taught to hate Trump by the media, and many across both halves just aren't going to behave, because they are Americans and you can't make them. The day of a president, *any* president, being able to control the populace of the US is long gone.

Hell, you can't even get some city populations to stop burning down their own cities and neighborhoods, even when they are hurting themselves the most, eh?

What a hilariously ignorant comment. On one aspect of it: No one had to
teach anyone to dislike Trump. His behavior, his consorting with and
admiration of dictators, and his comments and never-ending attempts to
disrupt everything he can will be what does him in. He lost the popular
vote dramatically in 2016 and it looks as if he might be facing a
landslide loss in that and hopefully in the Electoral College.

Which right-wing racist asshole here were you before you changed your

People who "hate" Trump did not have to be taught. They dislike him
because of the constant lying, boorish behavior, disdain for science,
lack of sound leadership, and attempts to subvert the constitution. No
education required, its all out there for everyone to see.

We've had 4 years of the MSM portraying Trump in the worst way possible. I never said he didn't behave badly, but the press has given him zero credit for the good things he's done, and have showcased any tiny, barely perceived wrong as the ultimate slap in the face, up to and including manufacturing BS.

If you don't believe that the public can be led by the nose by the media, then I don't know what to tell you. Except maybe look at your own statements here lately.
