To the “March 30, Pres. Trump..” commenter: Trump was told of the covid-19 outbreak in early December 2020. Only protests from even Republican politician did he act about two months to late. His December rants of a Democratic hoax quickly became the world’s death diamond. History will record Trump’s late response as causing the death of thousands of Americans.
