More Trump BullSh*t

Washington Post: Experts and Trump’s advisers doubt White House’s 240,000 coronavirus deaths estimate - Inside the White House’s effort to create a projected death toll By William Wan, Josh Dawsey, Ashley Parker and Joel Achenbach

The experts said they don’t challenge the numbers’ validity but that they don’t know how the White House arrived at them.

White House officials have refused to explain how they generated the figure — a death toll bigger than the United States suffered in the Vietnam War or the 9/11 terrorist attacks. They have not provided the underlying data so others can assess its reliability or provided long-term strategies to lower that death count.
