History's verdict on Trump will be devastating (opinion) - CNN

(CNN)In a crisis, all is revealed.

After a lifetime devoted to avoiding responsibility and accountability -- for his lies, his deceptions, his hype, and his cruelty -- President Donald Trump has met his match in the pandemic of 2020. His bluff and bluster are powerless as thousands of Americans die and the blame falls, in part, on his failure to heed the warnings and execute a robust national response. This occurred even though a pandemic playbook had been left behind by the Obama administration. Early in the crisis, Trump said "We have it totally under control. It's one person coming from China. It's going to be just fine." Weeks were wasted and now the price of this fiasco will likely be a loss of life far greater than 9/11 or Hurricane Katrina.

On one level, Trump's failure can be traced to his original lie: the false image he sold to the American people in order to hide his shortcomings. Never a competent manager of complex organizations -- witness his many bankruptcies -- Trump rose to fame pitching the illusion that he was a great businessman. As he sought the presidency he used counterattacks, lies, and skillful denials to avoid answering for his record and gain the White House.
====================================
I agree. Trump has painted himself into a corner & the country will suffer greatly as a result.

Maybe it's time to see his taxes. What's he hiding?

History will prove that Trump is one of the best politicians of his generation, and also that he is right far more often than most.

It is The Failed Intelligentsia that will suffer the wrath of history.
 
Trump's legacy will be "Former reality-star...."
 
Maybe it would help if he gave the virus a nickname.

I am hyper educated and thus right more often than most.....it looks delusional to those who are behind in their learning....guys who live behind the curve can not comprehend those of us who live our lives in front of the curve.

History will sort things for you.
 
History will show Trump took care of us conservative states while they are dropping like flies in the liberal states.

So he's half a president.

But I gotta ask, how is he taking care of you, specifically? Do you somehow imagine the plague won't be by?
 
It didn't take an I'll managed pandemic that has killed thousands.

Trump had already bungled everything he has touched, remember the healthcare is complicated, who knew???

The list goes on forever, and books will be written forever.

The trump library (hurts just to write that) will be a monument to failure...
