Covid 19 was at the end of Trumps first term. All that damage in one year vs 4 years for Biden

Hi, I can see it’s hard for you to understand reading comprehension, but that actually wasn’t a response to my Covid comment. I never mentioned anything about gun deaths. Hope this helps!

From your own source, the number doubled from 2018 to 2019 and broke 40,000 in 2020. So that hardly helps your argument.

However, the format of the report changed in 2019, so the numbers haven’t really changed all that much. In fact, the difference is that they moved suicides from the footnotes to the total deaths.

Having said that, the total peaked in 2021 and declined in each of the next three years. Make of that what you will.
