Trump learned while in India exactly 8 months ago from the CDC that the #coronavirus was going to spread throughout the United States in "just a matter of time." Preparation was necessary IMMEDIATELY. He flew back, cut his trip short, then told the country it was no big deal.
On the long flight home from India, #POTUS45 had time to think. Nothing was going to mess with his made up story of creating the 'greatest economy in world history.' He must remain president. He could always blame China for letting it spread. However, China contained it. #VOTE
The virus "turned the corner" in January. While the American president was bragging about stopping some flights from China to the US, the virus spread throughout the EU and the UK. From there it hopped a flight to JFK. Trump washed his hands of it, still bragging. #VOTE
Trump, playing the role of #POTUS45, tried to will away the deadly #coronavirus. Even before Americans started to die, Trump said that "like the flu, one day it just disappears," or "it's China's fault," or "it's your governor's fault," offering no plan, not even empathy. #VOTE
By mid-February China had restricted travel to 780 million of its citizens, amd strongly encouraged self-quarantine. Any such broad program here was ruled "impossible" because of "freedom." China contained it. We landed men on the moon 50 years ago, but...leadership. #VOTE
Trump admin. gave up. The #coronavirus proves what most people saw years before this, that Trump is a loser with little intelligence, no courage but a big mouth and limitless capacity to lie and cheat. #TrumpVirus #TrumpPandemic or whatever you may call it, #VoteHimOut
In the end, Trump has shown the world that he is controlled by rage, as Bob Woodward has so recently written. Trump suffers from a nearly universal and immutable disdain. Who among us has not known someone with an undiagnosed mental illness. But this is the President.

Days before election day, Trump blames doctors for inflating the death toll to increase their "profit" during the #pandemic. More than 6 months ago he blamed nurses and others for "stealing" the essential PPE provided by the government. #VOTE
Trump appointed his grifter son-in-law to make sure the government supplied caregivers with anything they needed from the government stockpile. Admitting the government would help, Jared said "but that's OUR stockpile," casting blame on governors for having a shortage. #VOTE
This thread could go on and on and on. Maybe the tradition of a Presidential Library ends here. Updating TS Eliot, the great poet (who shares my birthday...), perhaps 'this is the way the world ends, not with a bang, but a tweet.'
