Despite Trump's constant fearmongering over shutdowns, suicides actually declined in 2020"
During last year’s second presidential debate, Donald Trump made certain to note how horribly things were going on his watch:
“We have to open our country,” the big, dumb adobe mud hut brayed. “We're not going to have a country. You can't do this, we can't keep this country closed. It is a massive country with a massive economy. People are losing their jobs, they're committing suicide. There's depression, alcohol, drugs at a level that nobody's ever seen before. There's abuse, tremendous abuse. We have to open our country. You know I've said it often—the cure cannot be worse than the problem itself, and that's what's happening.”
As we all know, the only thing Trump was actually concerned about was his reelection. I know this because nothing would have contributed more to our citizens’ flagging mental health than seeing Trump’s clammy, ramshackle corpse trundled up to the inauguration dais for another four years of ungodly terror.
Of course, Trump continually made a big deal out of all the suicides that were supposedly happening—again, on his watch—as a result of COVID-related closures. But, as usual, Trump was wrong. "
tRump's ass kissers getting it misconstrued again at having their heads so far up tRump's ass they recklessly omit facts. Actually suicides should have declined for that matter as a result of tRump and his GOPer mob conspiring to commit an act of covid suicide murder of over 500,000 Americans, and Putin's b!tch tRump was not legally elected in the first place:
tRump's disastrous legacy as a lawlessly hacked in and fake one term atrocity against humanity resulted in adding insult at basically mocking the covid dead Americans in his deranged form of self amusement:
How can we honor the more than half-million Americans who lost their lives to COVID-19 while marking former President Donald Trump’s shameless failure to “preserve, protect and defend” this country and its Constitution?
Easy. Let’s bury the dead at Mar-a-Lago.
This small measure of justice would have an obvious historical precedent. Arlington, the former home of Robert E. Lee that is now Arlington National Cemetery, became a final resting place for Union soldiers in the spring 1864 — after 82,000 soldiers died in one month of fighting. Who could argue this wasn’t a just punishment? Lee had abandoned his post in the U.S. Army to lead the army of what Frederick Douglass called the “slaveholders' rebellion.”
Lee’s treachery was obvious. Trump’s crimes against his country, however, are far more devious, and continue as he remains dedicated to undermining our democracy. The ex-president tried to refuse to give up his power, even after he was defeated in a fair election. And you cannot dissect the ex-president’s incitement against Congress, his vice president and our constitutional order from his monstrous approach to the pandemic."
