Ahead of Trump’s visit to Rochester, Minnesota today, the DFL Party is releasing the memo fact sheet below on how the Trump administration’s disastrous management of the coronavirus pandemic has failed Minnesotans.
FACT: Donald Trump’s failed response to the COVID-19 pandemic is leaving working families behind.
- Trump didn’t just fail to prepare for coronavirus: he abandoned states to face it alone. Minnesota has seen over 139,000 positive cases of COVID-19 and over 2,440 deaths.
- Over eight months since the pandemic came to the United States, and some frontline workers still struggle to get the PPE they need to work safely.
- Now, Trump’s White House admits they have given up on any plan to tackle the pandemic just as Minnesota is facing a record number of hospitalizations.
