Trump Declares It Will Be a ‘Bloodbath’ for America if He’s Not Elected - Lemmy.World

That’s a terroristic threat.
Except consequences - and facts - do not seem to ever stick to him. He’s already been impeached, twice, after causing more “excess deaths” than all wars combined (except the Civil War - or maybe we passed that marker too? tbf not all of that is on him, though surely a lot of it is, e.g. lying about the virus being airborne). And now there’s a not insignificant chance that he will be re-elected again.

His most damning action leading to Covid deaths happened about 18-months before the virus really hit.

When the next pandemic occurs (and make no mistake, it will) and the federal government is unable to respond in a coordinated and effective fashion to protect the lives of US citizens and others, this decision by John Bolton and Donald Trump will be why. https://t.co/iMSzopSRaI

When Trump/pandemic is brought up I say, “It could have happened to any President, but it was definitely going to happy to Trump.”
Yup. Same in the UK with Boris fucking Johnson. COVID would be difficult for a competent and caring government yet it was a perfect set of circumstances for a clusterfuck when governments opted for populism instead.
