Of course Trump didn't want to shut down travel and tourism to limit Covid

He was personally on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars worth of loans used to buy real estate and other hard assets in those industries.

1. Yup

Among his personally guaranteed loans coming due is $100 million on the commercial portion of Trump Tower due in 2022. Commercial real estate in the US is being written down on average 27 percent per yesterday’s news. #TrumpIsBroke

This is precisely why presidential office holders MUST DIVEST THEIR PRIVATE HOLDINGS BEFORE ASSUMING OFFICE.

3. THIS

Everyone knew a slowdown in the travel and tourism industries would cause Trump to lose money, but now we know he's hundreds of millions of dollars in debt, we can see how PERSONALLY devastating it would be for him.

So he fought tooth and nail to keep the country open, because of his own PERSONAL interests.

And now 200,000 Americans are dead because of it, with many more deaths to come.

Personal gain by lying and keeping the country open
