https://www.mediaite.com/election-2020/biden-offers-indictment-of-trumps-covid-response-in-dnc-speech-hes-failed-to-protect-america-that-is-unforgivable/Trump's deliberate actions killed Americans and that is unforgivable.
There are five factors that led to over hundreds of thousands of Americans needlessly dying
1 Trump ignored the threat
Trump sent out 1,795 tweets in the months of January and February and not a single one of them was to warn Americans about the pandemic even after he was briefed on how widespread and deadly it was predicted to be, but he did manage to send out a few hundred Tweets to gossip about what he saw on TV during those months.
2 Trump intentionally manufactured drama inundating our airports with infected travelers
When he did finally begin tweeting about the COVID-19 pandemic he used it to manufacture drama and chaos at airports causing our international airports to flood unscreened infected passengers into our nation's cities resulting death trolls three times higher than the next closest nation.
3 Trump tried to force our country to return back to normal with no regard for reality

It is factually undeniable that Trump is a greater threat to American lives that Al Qaeda or ISIS.
4 Trump went out of his way to make wearing live saving masks political
If Trump didn't start his War on Masks this pandemic would have been contained in the Untied States already, but he just couldn't help himself ... Full On Dоuchebag is his only mode of operation.
and lastly
5 Trump believes crises are meant to be exploited for TV ratings
Trump still can not comprehend that crises are problems which need to addressed and solved with the upmost sense of urgency. Whenever a crisis arises he instantly going into Used Car Salesman Mode and tries to con it away, as if he can make a crisis go away by selling it like a used car on the lot.
Pick a crisis ... any crisis
No matter what crisis you picked, based on past experience we can guarantee with the upmost certainty that Trump will make that crisis worse
