Democrats call Trump's COVID-19 response 'among the worst failures of leadership in American history

House Democrats on the committee overseeing the coronavirus crisis released a report Friday calling the Trump administration's response "among the worst failures of leadership in American history."
The report from the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis comes four days before Election Day, in a campaign where Democrats have hammered President Trump over his response to a virus that has killed more than 228,000 people in the U.S.
"President Trump's decision to mislead the public about the severity of the crisis, his failure to listen to scientists about how to keep Americans healthy, and his refusal to implement a coordinated national plan to stop the coronavirus have all contributed to devastating results: more than 227,000 Americans dead, more than 8.8 million Americans infected, and a dangerous virus that continues to spread out of control nine months after it reached our nation's shores," the report said.
The report pointed to the administration's failure to "implement a national plan on testing, contact tracing, public health measures, and protective equipment," instead shifting much responsibility to the states that were competing with each other for testing supplies and protective equipment early on in the pandemic.
