trump's biggest crime against humanity, why isn't it a big deal?

Early on, he purposely hid the fact that the virus was deadly and airborne.

He admitted this to Woodward on tape! Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of people died because they weren't sufficiently warned.

Can "get over" all but this.

a big deal out of it. Seems so surreal to me. Such a giant elephant in the room that only we see?

control. I should say, feel they have little control over. It makes them feel safer. I hear you. I will carry the horror of his abuses to the end. He is a full blown sociopath.

and the only thing I can figure is that they are saving this one for the last of his crimes to go to trial since it is the worst, even more so than being a traitor and colluding with Russia to steal the election. We can't let this go unpunished!!!!!

None should be gotten over but this is the worst easily. It is hard to believe that he is not in jail already for this.

what specific laws would you say he violated?

I think this could also be addressed through House and Senate hearings.

15. January 2020 assessment
Sat May 22, 2021, 02:25 AM
May 2021

In the first week of January 2020, the current Chief of Staff for President Biden published an article in Atlantic Magazine that President Trump was ill equipped to handle the coronavirus. This was when China revealed to WHO that they had a virus problem. According to Woodward, Trump had a conversation with President Xi of China who told him how deadly and infectious the virus was. Trump completely ignored the warning. When the virus started appearing in the US, he called it a hoax, then said that it would disappear. The moron just didn’t see the consequences of inaction. And when it got bad all the hat he could do was suggest false cures and injections of Clorox, showing what an imbecile he really is. The fool even contracted the virus because he didn’t bother to protect himself—another idiotic action. Even now he claims success for the vaccines, which Pfizer and Moderna got zero dollars of his “warp speed” project. Yet he did not supply ventilators, PPE, or other equipment, thus causing even more lives to be lost. He is a buffoon.
