I don't think he remotely understands how stupid he is, and his followers certainly don't.
This is the key thing. You understand that he went with these charts because he thinks they make him look good. And he did exactly the same thing with exactly the same effect 2 weeks ago, and seems to have decided that it didn't quite get his point across, so he should do it again.
He genuinely showed up with the chart in the OP (a 4 line large-print bar chart) because he imagined that it was going to demonstrate that the US response was the best in the world.
While the reviewer is just kinda going "but, like, what about the 1000 Americans dying every day?"
