As COVID-19 Death Toll Nears 80K, Trump Promotes His Golf Business

What’s the most egregious aspect to Trump’s tweet here?

Maybe it’s his incredible lack of sympathy for the nearly 80,000 people who died agonizing deaths, and for the families that survived them.

Perhaps it’s his shameless violation of the emoluments clause of the U.S. Constitution, that expressly forbids anyone in elected office from profiting from his position.

Could be that he knows that more than 40% of Americans see nothing wrong here whatsoever, and will vote for his re-election in November, regardless of anything he says or does between now and then.
