Is Trump Guilty Of Negligent Homicide?

"Study: Trump rallies may be responsible for an estimated 700 Covid-19 deaths "

How should America respond to leadership whose knowing, intentional lies and actions killed more Americans then “the enemy“ in North Korea, North Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan over a 70 year period?

Virtually all these deaths can be laid at the feet of those people in the White House and their leader, Donald Trump, who lied or remain silent.

Trump knew Covid was deadly in January. He deliberately lied to the American public about it. After 230,000+ deaths,
ten months later, he is still holding super-spreader rallies. There has to be negligent homicide in there somewhere.

A former federal prosecutor of 30 years trial experience thinks there is.

Is Donald Trump Criminally Responsible for Coronavirus Deaths?

[...]

Glenn Kirschner: I actually think he will see charges brought in each jurisdiction in which people have died as a result of his gross negligence. So I have a feeling that he has got a lot of criminal legal exposure coming at him beginning in January 2021.

[Music interlude.]

Mehdi Hasan: Welcome to Deconstructed, I’m Mehdi Hasan. Broadcasting once again from home, because of the coronavirus of course. I hope you’re all staying safe and indoors because our lives are literally at stake.

GK: He acted in a grossly negligent way, and he failed to act. And that failure was a product of gross negligence. He hit the homicide bonanza.

MH: That’s my guest today, Glenn Kirschner, former federal prosecutor with 30 years of trial experience who’s upset many on the right with this very provocative suggestion of his: that Trump could be prosecuted for negligent homicide.

But aside from triggering the MAGA snowflakes, is he right? Could the president really one day be prosecuted, put on trial for his role in exacerbating and worsening this deadly crisis?

And

Off the top it seems the problem of intent comes in with 2nd degree murder. Intent to cause bodily harm comes before the indifference bit.

P - Whereas involuntary manslaughter sounds easier to prove.

Since Trump knows of the risk his rallies pose and goes ahead with them anyway there is a taste of negligent homicide.
P - Since the result of a rally is an uptick of some 20% of new cases leading to a number of deaths there is a sense of the number of deaths resulting from his intentional negligence.
