Apparently, that’s going to be Harris’s particular task in the rest of the campaign. Here’s a taste from her speech yesterday:
““This virus has impacted almost every country, but there’s a reason it has hit America worse than any other advanced nation. It’s because of Trump’s failure to take it seriously from the start, his refusal to get testing up and running, his flip-flopping on social distancing and wearing masks, his delusional belief that he knows better than the experts.
All of that is the reason that an American dies of COVID-19 every 80 seconds.
It’s why countless businesses have had to shut their doors for good.
It’s why there is complete chaos over when and how to reopen our schools.
Mothers and fathers are confused and uncertain and angry about childcare and the safety of their kids at school. Whether they’ll be in danger if they go, or fall behind if they don’t.
It didn’t have to be this way.””
There is so much more. But that’s the argument, in a nutshell. He’s got the blood of tens of thousands of Americans on his hands. And the economic pain of millions of people can be laid directly at his feet. Why in the hell would anyone think he deserves another term?
