When you say the simple, established truth it sounds extreme, but it is what it is: The Trump administration has actively pursued policies to spread the virus, and dramatically increase the number of Americans sickened and killed by the virus.
This is, to my mind quite distinct from that many examples of mistakes, incompetence and failures in dealing with the virus we've seen from state and local officials - Democrat and Republican - as well as the governments of other countries from Belgium to Canada.
Our federal government under Trump was the only one, along with Sweden, that actively choose to get its people sick in large numbers and actively resisted policies to test, trace and suppress the virus.
