Behind the Poll
There is no denying that the Democratic Party has been vocal in its criticisms of the Trump Administration’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. From early on, Democrats have accused President Trump of downplaying the severity of the virus and not doing enough to prevent its spread.
However, some argue that the Democrats are being hypocritical in their criticisms. After all, many of the same policies that they are now criticizing President Trump for implementing, were actually put in place by Democratic governors during the Obama Administration. For example, when it comes to travel bans, President Trump has been accused of not doing enough to prevent people from coming into the country from areas affected by Covid-19. However, it was actually the Obama Administration that put in place travel bans on countries affected by Ebola.
Ultimately, whether or not the Democrats are being hypocritical in their criticisms of President Trump’s handling of Covid-19 is up for debate. However, there is no denying that the party has been vocal in its critiques of the Trump Administration.
