Tonight, Protect Our Care’s Coronavirus War Room Zac Petkanas released the following statement:
“1,200 people died today. High ranking Trump officials lying about the pandemic and pretending it’s behind us – like Larry Kudlow did tonight – is exactly the reason we are in such dire straits right now.
“In fact, it’s the reason Donald Trump has failed to get the virus under control, which forced our economy to shut down.
“Instead of taking decisive action, he downplayed the danger, ignored the warnings of experts urging him to ramp up testing, mocked the need to wear face masks and rushed states and schools to reopen.
“The comments of Trump’s top advisor show why the virus is worse in the United States compared to every other country in the world: our leaders can’t even acknowledge it’s still an issue.”
