Like Reagan, Trump callously allows Americans to die
When it came to fighting a viral pandemic and saving American lives, Donald Trump and Ronald Reagan acted in frighteningly similar ways.
Except Trump says the quiet part out loud.

WE CANNOT LET THE CURE BE WORSE THAN THE PROBLEM ITSELF. AT THE END OF THE 15 DAY PERIOD, WE WILL MAKE A DECISION AS TO WHICH WAY WE WANT TO GO!

Thats the only significant difference between Trumps negligence on coronavirus and Reagans on AIDS in the 1980s, as each enjoyed the support of much of their party in the face of these catastrophic failures.
This is instructive because it shows us just where the the GOP has gone over 40 years: Now Republicans feel emboldened to act with callous, reckless disregard in a much more blatant, in-your-face way.
