This idiot Donald Trump just destroyed medical testing equipment
When Donald Trump visited yet another medical equipment factory today, it raised questions about why he was bothering. His past few visits brought him nothing but criticism for refusing to wear a mask. When Trump visited a Maine factory today, he refused to wear a mask again – and this time he did tangible damage.
It turns out the coronavirus testing components that were manufactured during Donald Trump’s visit are now going to be destroyed, according to USA Today, because Trump’s refusal to wear a mask means the components are no longer safe.
It’s bad enough that Donald Trump has spent months standing in the way of proper testing, by downplaying the need for it, and by refusing to invoke the Defense Production Act to boost manufacturing. Now Trump is going into factories and destroying some of the coronavirus testing equipment that is being manufactured. This guy just keeps getting worse.
