trump still called it a "democrat hoax for 70
precious days" & encouraging his fans Not to wear masks.. trump Mocked Masks.. Mocked them at the Debate.. Mocked Biden wearing Masks.. & now trump has COVID.

Also trump has been documented as the number 1 person in the country who has spread the Most Misinformation about COVID.

trump LIED to the Country about COVID now there are at least 211, 000 people dead from it.. and it caught up with trump, too.
