As the U.S. death toll from the woofloo hits 100, some experts are wondering whether grinding

the global economy to a halt might have been something of an overreaction. We examine the

scientific data and the philosophical reasons why the left never lets a crisis go to waste.

Then President Trump officially secures the Republican nomination for President,

and Joe Biden is set to sail to his own party's nomination if he can only remember who and where

he is. All that and more on Michael Knowles, and this is the Michael Knowles show.

Welcome back to the crisis. We are in a crisis crisis, I think. There are so many crises.

I don't know if I can even keep all of them straight in my mind. Here are some numbers to update

you on the woofloo pandemic. The U.S. death toll has now reached 100. Coincidentally,

that number is the same number of people who will die today in car accidents.

I'm not advocating some particular policy over another. I am simply giving you those two numbers

to give you some perspective. You have been watching the mainstream media shriek and whale and

gnash their teeth and rip rip their garments and tell you that this is the end of the world.

It's been about two months since we had the first confirmed case of woofloo,

kung flu, coronavirus in the United States. 100 people have died.

Unaverage 102 people will die today from car accidents. I'll give you another number.

7452. That's the number of people who will die today just because. Just because. That's how many

people die every day in the United States. 7452. Now of course, is it a very bad thing if more people

than that die unnecessarily because of a pandemic? Yes, that's a very bad thing.

But why do I mention 7452? And mention that number because if the media talked about 7452 deaths

today, if they focused in on every story, every 24 hours a day you were hearing about this,

you would think that something is terribly, terribly wrong. And yet that's how life goes.
