      Thank you! Trump displayed he needed to be in a straight jacket from the time he stated Mexico was sending their worst people and that Mexico was paying for his wall. Tens of thousands have died from the Covid-19 virus because he admittedly played down the dangers. Trump just caused four more Americans to die needlessly. The injured military members due to Iran's bombings were due to the irrational hit on Soleimani. They will have injuries for life. Trump was an American horror story.
