Coronavirus: Debra Messing predicts Trump supporters ‘will die' due to president’s ‘lies and inactions’
US president initially downplayed the crisis
Debra Messing has publicly criticised Donald Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, predicting that some of his supporters will die due to his management.
The actor made her views known on Twitter earlier this week, referring to the US president as the “liar-in-chief”.
“Now that innumerable people (including MAGA) will die, because of his lies and inaction, I wonder if MAGA will recognise that 45 must be voted out?” she added.
The Will & Grace star has been an outspoken critic of Trump and his policies.
Trump has been criticised in the US for playing down the coronavirus threat.
The country has registered at least 8,700 infections and at least 151 deaths.
Trump has also infuriated Beijing’s government by rebuking it for not acting faster and drawn accusations of racism by referring to the “Chinese virus”.
