Trump's Crimes Against Humanity

Having eliminated USAID, withdrawn from the World Health Organization, greatly decreased funding for medical research and placed an uneducated buffoon in charge of the Department of Health and Human Services, Donald Trump as caused needless death and suffering across the globe.

Famine has led to countless deaths and the current Ebola outbreak was not recognized early enough to control its severity.  Here in the U.S., measles has unnecessarily sickened and killed Americans and research funding has been dramatically curtailed, both within the government and at universities across the country.

Trump's anti-science policies would be sad enough themselves but are especially disturbing in light of the financial enrichment that he and his family have enjoyed during his second term.  Indeed, his actions have been both immoral and criminal and, were it not for a complicit, Republican-controlled Congress, should have led to Impeachment.
