Frida Ghitis: People trust Donald Trump to lead a “ Make America Healthy Again’s movement.

She says he abdicated his responsibility as a leader and deceived the public as Covid crisis unfolded.

Ghitis says he was hazardous to this country's health when he was president, and you’d be a fool to believe he wouldn’t be every bit as hazardous if he were elected again.

She writes: Trump 's endorsement of quackery, his embrace of snake-oil treatments and anti-vaccine partisans such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a promise to keep inflicting harm upon the public's health.

The former president offered silver platters of his greasy favorites to the Clemson Tigers football team.

Trump bragged about paying for the fast food himself, since the event took place during a government shutdown.

This campaign season, Trump ’s surrounded himself with people who believe making America healthy again means promoting unpasteurized milk.
