Trump and Fauci

Original article from: CNN

A frustrated and at times foul-mouthed President Donald Trump claimed on a campaign call that people are tired of hearing about the deadly pandemic which has killed more than 215,000 Americans and trashed Dr. Anthony Fauci as a “disaster” who has been around for “500 years.”

Referring to Fauci and other health officials as “idiots,” Trump declared the country ready to move on from the health disaster, even as cases are again spiking and medical experts warn the worst may be yet to come.


LEFT VIEWPOINTS

Trump should be charged with 225,000 counts of manslaughter.


  • Donald Trump is responsible more many, perhaps most, of the deaths that happened from coronavirus. If he had listened to experts rather than second-guessing them, our country would be in a much better position.
  • In 2018, Donald Trump disbanded the pandemic response team. That action left our country unprepared for the pandemic.
  • During an interview with Bob Woodward, Trump acknowledged the severity of COVID-19. In public, Trump downplayed the virus, leading to countless super-spreader events. Fast forward to October, 215,000 people are dead, and the country is in an economic depression.

I am politically left by U.S. standards, although I'd be considered moderate in most European Countries. I believe in universal healthcare, a UBI, equal opportunity to education, and expanded democracy. I think the free market works best for most industries. However, I am convinced that some industries, such as healthcare and education, do not respond to market forces and should be publically funded. Additionally, I believe industries that damage and destroy the environment should be regulated. My views are my own, and they do not necessarily represent what other people on the left believe. In that sense, LeftViewpoint is "a" left viewpoint, not "the" left viewpoint.
