Warren hits Trump: He's trying to turn a health crisis into 'a political rally for himself'

"He has failed abysmally in that and he has also failed just in the notion of what he's telling people. Saying liberate - free Michigan, Virginia. Encouraging people to come out and trying to turn this health crisis into a political rally for himself," Warren told MSNBC's Joy Reid on her show.

Warren added: "That is absolutely the wrong kind of leadership. It is the kind of leadership that puts lives at risk, and it is the kind of leadership that undermines the very strength of this country."

He is using COVID-19 as a money grabbing opportunity for himself and all of his friends.

I wish more people would call it like it is.
