“As the death toll in the novel coronavirus pandemic neared 100,000 Americans this Memorial Day weekend, President Trump derided and insulted perceived enemies and promoted a baseless conspiracy theory, in between rounds of golf,” the Washington Post reports.
“He made little mention of the sacrifice Americans honor on Memorial Day or the grim toll of the virus.”
“Although Trump on Friday had called for worshipers to return to church in person this holiday weekend, Trump himself did not. He played golf on Sunday morning.”
New York Times: “He finally ordered flags lowered to half-staff at the White House only after being badgered to do so by his critics.”
Trump did tweet: “HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!”
