TRUMP’S CORONAVIRUS CATASTROPHE
C4, 8pm
IN just a couple of weeks, America goes to the polls to vote in the 2020 election that will determine whether Donald J Trump gets another term as President.
He will be judged – among other things – on his chaotic handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
In this documentary, Matt Frei investigates the President’s policies, actions and decisions during a catastrophe that has cost more than 200,000 American lives.
Frei has spent months talking to insiders, including White House advisors, whistleblowers, politicians who’ve worked with Trump, top US scientists, the President’s niece Mary Trump, but also his loyal supporters – and we are promised revelations.
Attention also turns to Trump’s personal encounter with the virus and his controversial return from hospital.
It’s another twist in this topical account of the President’s extraordinary battle with Covid.
With Trump saying he may not accept the ballot result, Frei wonders if the pandemic may lead up to a catastrophic election day.
