#TrumpsFailureOurLoss 1/8
While adhering to physical distancing rules, we are currently live in DC outside the Capitol building to let the Trump administration know that they are responsible for the scale of deaths.
#TrumpsFailureOurLoss 2/8
Yesterday, an American died from Coronavirus every 53 seconds.
We have gathered thousands of roses to represent the nearly 85,000 lives lost to date.
#TrumpsFailureOurLoss 3/8
To this day, as the death toll rises, Trump is still diminishing the seriousness of the situation and making dangerous claims against the suggestions of health professionals. This is the video playing live in DC now.
#TrumpsFailureOurLoss 4/8
Trump has grossly downplayed this crisis.
He ignored early signs when he could have acted proactively.
He has failed to adequately protect Americans.
#TrumpsFailureOurLoss 5/8
On top of all his failings, Trump has been displaying a complete lack of empathy.
He has been callous and self-congratulatory as the country mourns a devastating death toll.
#TrumpsFailureOurLoss 6/8
The number of COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. have now eclipsed that of every other country.
Americans are frustrated.
Americans are angry.
Americans are hurting.
Americans are dying.
#TrumpsFailureOurLoss 7/8
Trump’s lack of acknowledgement of the rising death toll will not make that reality go away.
Trump’s lies will not distract us from all the ways he has let us down.
Trump’s failures continue to be at the cost of American lives.
