His lack of action early on would be better handled later if he did nothing rather than misinform and mislead people day after day. He and his Corona Gang have been in the way and exploited the situation and nothing more.

4. Trump Is a Master of Failing Up

Trump is like a train wreck. He f*&ks things up so bad that you cannot look away. Recommend that people take clorox internally, which causes accidental poisonings to double? You may say a disaster, but Trump sees ratings gold.
