Welcome to DU, Dios Mio.

They'll have to excavate a whole new level of Hell for the donald. The seventh level isn't low enough.

The Daily Dread - Tracking the spread, 6/1/20

All times Pacific, source: NBC News

This is the only set of statistics I've seen all day, what with the ongoing national agony over the unarmed George Floyd's murder at a the hands of the Minneapolis police. But it's bad enough just by itself.

At 6:01pm
Confirmed cases US - 1,804,977
Deaths US - 105,168


Nicolle Wallace of MSNBC had a good and rather profound way of boiling it down, earlier this afternoon, on this SEVENTH day of national uproar after Floyd's killing:
There are THREE crises in America right now!
1) Our health
2) Our economy
3) Our soul

Hard to top that.

The aftermath of George Floyd has eclipsed everything, including all things COVID.

But I did hear Brian Williams refer a couple of hours ago to "close to 105-thousand deaths." Good Grief...
