A senior US Democrat senator from Massachusetts has strongly criticized Donald Trump's failure to deal with the Coronavirus pandemic crisis.

Iran Press/ America: Elizabeth Warren, serving as the senior United States senator from Massachusetts since 2013, wrote in her latest tweet that the US economy would not fully recover from the pandemic until the administration prioritizes getting real support into the hands of struggling families & resources into the hands of health workers.

More than 30 million people are out of work. Economists are comparing our unemployment rate to the Great Depression. And Trump & his GOP allies still don’t have a plan to get us out of this economic disaster. This is a policy failure – and this is a moral failure.

And our economy will not fully recover until this administration prioritizes getting real support into the hands of struggling families & resources into the hands of health workers, not funneling relief checks & contracts to the wealthy & well-connected.

Coming out of the Great Depression, America invested in building a middle class. We can do it again & do it right this time by not leaving people of color behind. But first we need real leadership for this public health & economic crisis.

This is while the White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said, "There's no reason to be concerned because we have a president who always looks at the data."
