Too bad we did not have any leadership from the WH. Who knows how many lives could have saved? Even just wearing a damn mask would have helped. Instead we have an idiot that promote ingesting bleach, taking malaria drugs and his ego rallies.
Bob, grading Gorrell is far better at pointing out your laziness in drawing.
But even with my skills I can find that you are the guy who has drawn this:

If you want to try to slow down the toll then be supportive of actual efforts to stop it. I’m not certain that is what you are trying to say with this ’toon – you are part of the GOP DEATHCULT so you may be cheering it on
In hindsight how great it would’ve been had Dump had just a little sense that God gave him and clamped down when there were only about 14 or so cases in Washington state. But, no, not Dump, he was more concerned about what bad news would do to Wall Street. Even if he didn’t have the intelligence, he could’ve listened to the medical intelligentsia but, no, being a stable genius, he needed no such help. So many ten of thousands have to die to preserve his personal image. Even now, he’s busy, with help from his immediate sycophants, to attack the credibility of our best mind on infectious diseases, Dr.Fauci, all so that people won’t notice the Idiot in Chief.
Vidrinath has already pointed out some of the times Gorrell has mocked the idea of wearing a mask.
There’s no need to wonder what Gorrell is trying to say with this cartoon. He’s not saying anything. He’s just illustrating(poorly) that 140,000+ people are dead. Illustrating data is what an infographic is supposed to do, not an editorial cartoon.
editorial cartoons are supposed to offer insight or an opinion. By just pointing out how many people died, Gorrell avoids addressing
Trump’s failure to lead
Trump’s failure to listen to experts
Trump’s failure to set an example for wearing a mask
Trump’s decision to hold a rally indoors where almost no one wore a mask
Trump’s decision to start attacking Dr. Fauci
The GOP governors’ reopening plans completely blowing up in their faces with cases spiking
The strain that the spike in cases is having on our healthcare workers
A right wing media that spent months telling viewers not to take this seriously, that it was a hoax
1/3 of Americans who were unable to make their rent payments
The failure of GOP congress to extend unemployment benefits or the issue another stimulus check
Million of people unemployed and now also losing their health insurance
The plans to send kids back to school with no plan on how to protect them or their teachers.
In the reply are some of the other times Gorrell has just used TEXT with one of the letters or 0’s replaced with a picture related to the news item the cartoon is illustrating:
Remember when the projected deaths were over 2,000,000? Still, even one death is regrettable. Worse still is that 42% of the deaths have been in just 3 states that have 10% of US population: New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. (CDC numbers)
I’m old enough to remember the MacDonald’s digital “burgers sold” signs. I think every newscast should have this changing figure of COVID-19 deaths displayed in a chyron at the bottom of the screen.
I’m wondering if Gorrell’s actually starting to give a dam_ because someone he knows has been affected. Given his past, I’m convinced it’s pretty much the only way he’d care.

Almost a good comic Gorrell. If you lay that number at the feet of your chosen one, THEN you’ve got a good comic.

So Bob what number of Dead will it take for you to declare Trump’s Presidency a disaster?
What amount of added Debt will it take for you to declare Trump’s Presidency a disaster.
What amount of Unemployment will it take for you to declare Trumps Presidency a disaster.
We all knew Trump would be a disaster but even us Libs didn’t think it would be this bad.

Trump said that 100,000 deaths would indicate that he did a good job, so by exceeding that it must mean that Trump is doing a great job?
