    A former top aide to Vice President Mike Pence assailed President Donald Trump's response to the pandemic in a new video Thursday, adding to the growing list of former Trump administration officials who have criticized the President and, in several cases, endorsed his Democratic opponent Joe Biden.

    Olivia Troye, who was a homeland security adviser to Pence and his lead staffer on the White House's Coronavirus Task Force, charged in the two-minute video that Trump failed to protect the American public because he only cared about himself and getting reelected. Troye's criticism is particularly striking because of her role working on the coronavirus task force, which Pence leads.
    "Towards the middle of February, we knew it wasn't a matter of if Covid would become a big pandemic here, it was a matter of when"

    Wow. More bad news for Trump on his handling of the Covid Outbreak.

    Does anybody actually still believe that Trump handled the Virus (in the early days) effectively?

    Regardless of the coronavirus, Biden isn't the best bet for our country by a longshot. Should've nominated Andrew Yang. He was woke the right way.

    Trump says he does not know her and says she does not know him. More lies.



    Show us the letter Donald.

    Trump doesn't know this Mike Pence fella... he's certainly not going to know one of Pence's staffers...

    Pretty effective take down... Interesting that she left in July but is just coming forward now...

    Another "lifelong" Republican voting for Trump.... Maybe, and I'm just spit balling here, the problem is with the man and not the party??

    Although the party is royally ****ed up as well...

    How many sources do you need before it becomes “real news” — heck, y'all twist trump saying something on national TV as “fake news” so I am guessing the number doesn’t exist. And it isn’t any “single source” it is the fmr homeland security adviser to Pence and his lead staffer on the White House's Coronavirus Task Force

    Exactly.

    A very well-respected woman.

    A strong indictment of Trump's Epic FAIL in dealing with the TRUMP VIRUS.

    We learned with Kavanagh not to trust a single source with news from the left. Get another two people to verify it and I'll discuss it, till then it's fake news.

    You are already discussing it...
    All you need to do is bring up Pelosi’s hair or Bengazziiii and your average contributions will be met.
    Screaming “Fake news” is all the right wing has as a campaign slogan any longer — it is all that remains of the party.

    trump sacrificing all of his supporters elderly parents didn’t move the needle so I doubt this will. Looking at polling though — it isn’t needed.

    Maybe a touch, which may be significant in Florida and other battlegrounds.

    I have no doubt Trump intends to cheat. He won't get away with it.

    It was the fake news that exposed themselves for all to see and ignore. Biden will lose in November. Trump improved the economy more in 4 years than Obama/Biden did in 8, do you think no one working for a living noticed their lives were better? People will vote for Trump to get that back. The Democrats and leftists will go bonkers again.

    He improved the economy through massive unfunded deficits and was still barely unable to match Obama which Republicans screamed was unacceptable. trump has now spent more in one term than Obama did in two.

    The people screaming their lives are better are doing so against the lives of their children and grandchildren.
    I am not surprised to see the most selfish generation in recent history not caring about anything but themselves.

    What would you call Obama's trillion dollars stimulus that did little to boost the economy. It did keep Government workers unemployment under 6%.
