Trump & entire GOP knew COVID-19 was deadly. THEY ALL KNEW.

While they were telling us to go out, refuse masks, the virus was a "hoax," they were also dumping stocks, buying new stocks in tele-work ventures & PPE, & getting trademarks for coffins.

They saw profit, not lives.
It's not mere negligence - it's criminal indifference to life or depraved heart murder.

GOP KNEW & didn't just downplay risk, but actively sabotaged efforts to save lives. GOP mocked masks & social distancing, filed suits to remove local mask orders & incited Americans to go out
They KNEW the virus was 4x deadlier for Blacks. They knew it was more likely to kill poor people, those w/ pre-existing conditions & old people - Americans they saw as an economic burden.

Don't tell me this wasn't a factor in their active sabotage of efforts to stop the virus.
This wasn't incompetence or negligence or stupidity.

It was malevolence.

It was the deliberate killing of certain groups via depraved indifference to human life that they knew could be passed off as incompetence or negligence or stupidity.
It seems too horrific to believe, but everything they've done & CONTINUE TO DO suggests they want this virus to spread.
They've done nothing but sabotage:
*Slow down testing
*Seize PPE
*Ban mask orders
*Threaten to withhold federal funds for districts that keep schools closed
*Encourage supporters to resist masks
*Smear health officials

This is way worse than "doing nothing." It's active sabotage
