I seriously do not get involved in politics but I am out of my skin thinking of all the people who will die because Trump refuses to engage with the incoming administration and denies them access to knowledge and resources. To me this refusal that will guarantee more dead in addition to the already quarter of a million dead in the US, is murder. This is just a disgusting and unbelievable display of power gone terribly terribly wrong.

Its definitely treason IMO. But at the same time, many of us are complete idiots as citizens. We know what to do to stay safe yet we refuse to comply. We are just as much at fault. This isn't rocket science. Wear a mask and keep your distance from other people

I think accusing any one person of killing millions of others during a pandemic is so juvenile and devoid of reason that any conversation on the topic with such a person will never go anywhere.

The only engagement Trump has had regarding covid is to lie to the American people and side line anyone who dared to speak against him.

I don't think that engaging with Bidens team would help much as they would have to sort through all of the Trump admin BS to find out what is really happening.

Justifiable when you’re holding information and tools vital to handling the pandemic. Especially being in a position of power. Shows he cares more about his power than his own people.

Agreed.

Trump just wants this transition to be as painful as possible and the perception is that he doesn't care who it hurts in the process. Not you, not me, not anyone. He's putting on a show for his supporters and they are buying front row tickets.

With that said - Yes, just wear a mask, use sanitizer like it is nobody's business and keep a safe distance where/when you can. And yeah, I know for some this comment goes in one ear and out the other.

He's digging his own grave anyways. Biden probably would have let him off the hook if he just took his ball and went home. Now the lawsuits and indictments against him and his family will be flying.

I simply disagree. There isn’t an American alive that doesn’t know we’re in a pandemic, and doesn’t know what to do/not do to stay safe. No precaution is 100% safe however, and people will continue to die. Because we’re in the middle of a killer pandemic. Biden isn’t going to come along and magically zap this disease. People will die under his helm, too. Because we’re in the middle of a killer pandemic.

Maybe we can put this hyperbole thread in the trash with the ones about Trump election being stolen.

US politics is not only poisonous, it is lead by crazy on both sides.
