Donald Trump keeps proving, time and time again, that he doesn’t care about Americans’ lives, broadly or those close to him or those who work for him. He is a national disgrace and a national danger.
There are more than 200,000 Americans dead, Trump’s Barrett events last Saturday created the largest case of community spread in all of DC, and now he’s forcing Secret Service to be in an enclosed vehicle with him so he can drive by his fans. Unforgivable.
“I learned a lot about Covid; I learned it by really going to school,” the president says about his weekend, more than 8 months after the first coronavirus case was confirmed in the US and after more than 200,000 Americans have died.

Everything about this video makes me want to scream. He learned about Covid only now?! And his response to all that “learning” is to force Secret Service agents into an enclosed vehicle for an ego-boost ride around the block?!
And it’s not just Trump. I put so much of the blame for this year on Mitch McConnell. This president should have been removed from office on Feb. 5 — before the first known Covid death had even occurred.
[Correction here: I was thinking of this line from the Post: “A Bowser administration official said that eight potential cases from a single event would represent among the highest community spread incidents the city has experienced in recent months.”] washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
