1) As the US nears 300,000 cases & surpasses 7000 deaths, I offer a chronological thread on Trump's lies & inaction on #coronavirus from January 22 to March 10 - the day before the WHO declared the #COVID19 outbreak a pandemic. The Trump #kakistocracy kills

2) 1/22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. WE HAVE IT TOTALLY UNDER CONTROL. It’s going to be just fine.”

3) 1/30: “WE HAVE IT VERY WELL UNDER CONTROL. We have very little problem in this country - five - and those people are all recuperating.. But we’re working closely with China & other countries, & we think it’s going to have a very good ending for us… I can assure you” #COVID19

4) 2/10: “the virus we’re talking about having to do, you know, a lot of people think it goes away in April with the heat, as the heat comes in. Typically, that will go away in April. WE'RE IN GREAT SHAPE. We have 12 cases — 11 cases, many of them are in good shape now.” #COVID19

5) 2/23: “WE HAVE IT VERY MUCH UNDER CONTROL in this country.”

7) 2/26: “So WE'RE AT THE LOW LEVEL. As they get better, we take them off the list, so that we’re going to be pretty soon at only five people. And WE COULD BE AT JUST ONE OF TWO PEOPLE over the next short period of time. So, we’ve had very good luck”

8) 2/26: “And again, when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days IS GOING TO BE DOWN CLOSE TO ZERO, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.”

9) 2/26: “I think every aspect of our society should be prepared. I don’t think it’s going to come to that, especially with the fact that we’re going down, not up. WE'RE GOING VERY SUBSTANTIALLY DOWN, NOT UP.”

11) 2/29: “And I’ve gotten to know these professionals. They’re incredible. And everything is under control. I mean, they’re very, very cool. They’ve done it, and they’ve done it well. EVERYTHING IS REALLY UNDER CONTROL.”

17) On April 3, 2020, the US exceeded 275,000 cases and 7000 deaths. While the outbreak spreads and doctors, #nurses, and #healthworkers lack masks, #PPE, and ventilators, @jaredkushner brags about "his" stockpile.
