This was genocide that was deliberately being committed against very
vulnerable populations. Why didn’t the Trump administration formulate
a national plan to protect Americans from the virus? Well, now we know
the answer. It was because of decisions made by people in the White
House, including the President. Their decisions were criminal.
For six weeks, Trump’s team waited for him to give the word. The word
never came because, as one team member stated, “The political folks
believed that because [COVID-19] was going to be relegated to
Democratic states, that they could blame those governors, and that
would be an effective political strategy.”
Now, four months later, 4.6 million Americans have caught the virus,
and 156,000 have died. What’s worse, is that the death toll is expected
to surpass 200,000 by the end of next month, and possibly double that
number before the virus is brought under control.
Today, one American is dying every minute of the day. This is the result
of Trump’s inhumane decision to allow people to die unnecessarily for
political reasons, rather than choosing to save American lives. These
deaths were preventable. Trump’s decision could possibly be criminal
also under U.N. Resolution 96, adopted December 11, 1946, making
genocide against racial, religious, political, and other groups, “entirely
or in part,” a crime under international law.
