Coronavirus Lawsuits

At least 7 class action lawsuits have been filed in the U.S. federal court against China related to the coronavirus including Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt. The accusation is China did little to stop the spread of covid-19. That may well be true. But why isn't Trump included in the lawsuit as co-defendant? Now maybe it's not legally possible to link both the Chinese and American administrations together in a conspiracy. So why haven't any of these attorneys generals sue the Trump administration?

President Donald Trump in many verifiable statements claimed he knew full well about the dangers of covid-19 from the beginning. Yet throughout the month of February, Trump did next-to-nothing to prepare the country, even as the virus spread outside of China. He said he knew from the start that thousands of Americans could die from the novel coronavirus but downplayed the threat because he wanted to stay positive and be a "cheerleader" for the country. I'm sure the leader of China would make the same argument.

During a coronavirus press briefing at the White House in March, President Donald Trump insisted that he’s long believed that the coronavirus  currently polarizing our country was a pandemic. He said "I’ve always (take note of ALWAYS) known this is a real—this is a pandemic. I felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic" 

So if Trump himself knew before any expert in this country that this new virus was a pandemic then his administration should be sued by the state of Missouri. Trump is also liable for the spread because he continued to resist calls for social distancing, school closures and other steps that would helped Missouri in mid March. Under his leadership the administration did little to nothing to stop the spread. 

If state of Missouri really wants to be serious about this lawsuit they are filing. Then they have no choice but to include Trump and his administration in a similar lawsuit. But we all know that the leadership of Missouri would never allow that to happen. This lawsuit is nothing more than an attempt for the weak leaders of Missouri to avoid being abused by their Lord and savior, Donald John Trump.
