It’s certainly no secret that Donald Trump’s response to the coronavirus outbreak in the United States has left more than a little to be desired.
Frankly, it’s been an absolute disaster from day one.
As usual, Donald’s ego and selfishness once again got in the way of him performing his duties as “president” of this nation in an even remotely proper manner — resulting in a sickeningly belated response to the outbreak, despite the fact that he knew its potential for months ahead of time, and a really lackluster game plan once he did get moving on the issue.
As such, this nation has suffered a historical pandemic outbreak, with nearly 75,000 deaths on US soil and no real end in sight, all because Trump was too concerned with his own approval ratings and economy numbers to get ahead of this thing when he had the chance.

But Donald Trump isn’t about to admit as much.
In fact, he’s done and will continue to do everything in his power to shift the narrative to the opposite end of the spectrum — attempting to lay the blame of this catastrophe at the feet of anyone but himself, including, but not limited to, his predecessor Barack Obama, members of his own cabinet, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and an overhyping of the outbreak by the “fake news media.”
His Twitter account alone has made as much clear in the last few weeks.
And people are getting fed up with it. Quickly.
This morning, Trump threw another temper tantrum on social media, as his approval continues to falter in the worst sort of way, declaring, “The Fake News has reached an all time high!”
The Fake News has reached an all time high!

Unsurprisingly, the comment section is chock full of people who had plenty to say in response to his mini-meltdown.
But the most notable, perhaps, to take Trump to the woodshed today was none other than the daughter of his former 2016 Democratic opponent, Chelsea Clinton.
For the most part, the Clinton family tends to stay out of Donald’s mess. But after experiencing a tragedy herself recently as a result of Trump’s “incompetence” it seems Chelsea simply could not bite her tongue any longer.
Someone I love very much lost a family member to #covid19 yesterday. Because of your inhumanity, callousness and incompetence we have a new leading cause of death in our country. That’s not fake news, Mr. President. I wish it were. https://t.co/SHp7PnfeeH

Honestly, people are flat done with your bullshit, Trump. Thousands are dying. And it’s your fault. So frankly, you can shove off with the “fake news” nonsense. You’re a fake president.
