859 Deaths So Far Because of Trump Inaction.

As of 3/25 990 US COVID19 deaths - 131 South Korea COVID19 deaths. (john hopkins site)
Both US and South Korea discovered their first case on the same day.

South Korea mobilized to reduce the threat.
Trump minimized the threat and went golfing.

I think it is fair to attribute these additional deaths to Trump.

Tell everyone this is the price of a Trump entertainment presidency instead of a competent presidency.

until the trump supporters pay a hefty price for it, not much will change. Those who disliked trump before the virus still dislike him, even more.

Because it's passengers would add to the numbers. He literally kept them circling in the ocean so he could bray about slightly lower numbers temporarily. The POTUS is a psychopath. Depraved indifference to human life.
