The page says 2,685,404 - not 2,654,825. You're using an old (and lower) number of deaths than the page you're citing. Also the claim of "no excess deaths" was already refuted. According to those numbers (and that page prior to CDC's most recent update), 27,566 additional people are dying per month in 2020 since the data is for 10 months instead of 12 months.

Ignoring the fact that 2020 isn’t over yet, and that those figures are as of 11/28...
Do you actually trust these figures?! Why?
Government agencies tally them. The same people fucking you in the ass for the reaction and solution are generating the numbers for the ‘problem’.

Days: 342
This count of days is way too high. CDC website says:
Week ending 2/1/2020 to 12/5/2020.*
Look at a 2020 calendar and count the days. There are 25 days in January missing (Jan 1 thru 25) and 26 days in December missing (Dec 6 thru 31). That's a total of 51 days out of the year missing. Instead of using 342, it should have been 315 (because 366 - 51 = 315).
Now that the denominator has been debunked, let's see what the deaths per day is...
2,685,404 ÷ 315 = 8,525. Compared to 2018's 7,779, this means that 746 additional people are dying per day. That's about 22,756 additional deaths per month. In other words, daily deaths have increased by about 9.6% compared to 2018. This is way higher than, for example 2018 to 2019, or 2017 to 2018. Also worth noting: 2018 had a severe flu season that overwhelmed ICU capacity.
I'm glad that this Twitter user at least tried to compare apples to apples. Another user here was flat out belligerent when they were called out for comparing 10 months of deaths to 12 (without even attempting to adjust for the different time periods).
Another couple things to keep in mind about 2020 death estimates:
1. Data for the recent past (especially 2 months) is incomplete, per CDC disclaimer. There's more all-cause deaths that haven't yet been tabulated.
2. January and December tend to be deadly months (flu season, bad weather / driving conditions, depression, etc).
I expect the 2020 numbers to get worse (and be fairly settled by March 2021).
