Trump Is Not Ending The Pandemic

  • Wednesday, October 28, 2020

As a voter with a family member in a local hospital ICU on a ventilator suffering from COVID-19, I strongly resent another lie by Trump - the lie that he "ended the COVID-19 pandemic."  

So, if Trump ended the pandemic, why are people still lying in intensive care units fighting for their lives?

So, if Trump ended the pandemic, why are the numbers of cases in Hamilton County still rising constantly?

So, if Trump ended the pandemic, why have 200,000-plus Americans died and why are people still dying?

Trump hasn't ended the pandemic; the only thing he ended with this "claim" is any shred of credibility that he ever had....if he ever had any.

I realize that Trump supporters do not seem to value truth and do not object to his lies, but they certainly should call him out on this lie.
