Trump claims the worsening U.S. coronavirus outbreak is a ‘Fake News Media Conspiracy’ even as hospitalizations rise

President Donald Trump on Monday claimed the worsening coronavirus outbreak in the United States is a “Fake News Media Conspiracy,” saying the nation has the most cases in the world only because “we TEST, TEST, TEST.”

“Corrupt Media conspiracy at all time high,” Trump said in a tweet Monday morning. “On November 4th., topic will totally change,” he added, referring to the day after the presidential election.

Trump’s tweet came as the U.S. is reporting a record-breaking number of new coronavirus cases. On Sunday, the country reported a weekly average of about 68,767 new cases every day, the highest seven-day average recorded yet, according to a CNBC analysis of Hopkins data. The U.S. reported 60,789 new Covid cases Sunday after daily cases reached 83,757 on Friday, passing the last record of roughly 77,300 cases seen on July 16, according to Hopkins data.

he would not be running for reelection. He would have taken responsibility for the slaughter of all these people. He has no understanding of the meaning od shame. Indeed he insists he did a great job and of he wasn't so great over two million people would have died.

He is guilty of criminal negligence and the proof is in the Woodward tapes. he knew and he lied.
He is a detestable creep.

Although hell is too good for him. While making phone calls for Biden this weekend, a woman said Trump had the "devil inside him." I couldn't agree more. Regardless of one's views on heaven and hell, the man is evil incarnate.
