Efforts by the administration to manipulate the public fuel distrust and frustration. Moreover, Mr. Trump is not suffering from an infirmity particular to him. He has contracted a virus that has already killed more than 209,000 Americans. His refusal from the start to be straight with the public about the severity of this disease has made it harder for the country to get the pandemic under control, and an untold number of lives have been lost as a result.

The lies are quite remarkable and follow the President all the way to his hospital room. Trump has decided that misinformation and obfuscation are going to rule the day with no real path to clear and truthful dissemination of information to the general public. I don’t wish ill on anyone and hope for speedy recovery but we need a truth commission after this Administration is over to find out where facts stopped and intentional deceptiveness began.
