Thomas Bossert, [Trump's] former homeland security adviser who for weeks has been vocal about the need for the U.S. government to take stricter measures, said,

“Sadly, the numbers now suggest the U.S. is poised to take the lead in #coronavirus cases. It’s reasonable to plan for the US to top the list of countries with the most cases in approximately 1 week. This does NOT make social intervention futile. It makes it imperative!”

Wow. China is currently "in the lead" with 81,496 cases, almost double the U.S. total of 41,511. Were the U.S. to overtake China "in approximately 1 week" requires just under 6,000 new cases every DAY. Fuck a duck. Trump, swallow your gun.
