Trump struntar i pandemin, han förklarade ju redan före valet att den var över. Men nu rullar den på värre än någonsin och USA är ett av de värst drabbade länderna. Det beror på en dysfunktionell federal ledning, säger experterna, en förnekande president.
Trump hade säkert minskat antalet dödsfall och överbelastningen på sjukhusen om han åtminstone hade uppmanat folk att hålla avstånd, att bära munskydd och inte samlat ihop folk i massmöten.
Ångrar han detta nu? Inser han att det här bidrog till hans valförlust?
Eller är det som vanligt bara andras fel?
Det verkar ju så, han ältar fortfarande valfusk-konspirationen.
Dummare president har nog aldrig funnits.
President Donald Trump may be continuing to tweet that he’s fighting to overturn the election, but he’s essentially surrendered to the coronavirus pandemic, according to a devastatingly detailed article by the Washington Post on Saturday.
The Post spoke to nearly 50 members of the White House Coronavirus Task Force and other advisers in the president’s inner circle, both on and off the record, to compile their report, bylined by Yasmeen Abutaleb, Ashley Parker, Josh Dawsey, and Philip Rucker.
The article describes how Trump refused to take even simple actions that would have likely reduced the spread and death toll of the virus, like encouraging his supporters to wear face masks. Polling (and many photos from Trump’s crowded campaign rallies) showed many of his supporters shared his disdain for face masks, social distancing, and other safety recommendations.

The tragic fact is that “the virus has caused proportionately more infections and deaths in the United States than in most other developed nations — a result, experts say, of a dysfunctional federal response led by a president perpetually in denial.”
