White House Science Office Lists ‘Ending the COVID-19 Pandemic’ as Trump’s Top Accomplishment

Nathaniel Weixel, reporting for The Hill:

The White House science office listed “ending the COVID-19 pandemic” as the top accomplishment of President Trump’s first term, even as the U.S. has set records for new daily infections and numerous hospitals across the country are stretched to their breaking points.

According to a press release intending to highlight the administration’s science accomplishments, the Trump administration said it “has taken decisive actions to engage scientists and health professionals in academia, industry, and government to understand, treat, and defeat the disease.”

They actually claimed this. Meanwhile, in reality, hospitals around the country are straining under a growing surge of infections. We’re in for a dark stretch with this gang of delusional wingnuts in charge through January 20. Vote.
