With Covid-19 pandemic surging in regions across the United States, progressive activists plan to spotlight the president's "reckless and deadly" handling of the public health emrgency by displaying the "Trump Death Clock" outside the White House and Trump International Hotel amid July 4th celebrations this weekend.

The "clock" quantifies the number Covid-19 related deaths that the activists say can be directly attributed to President Donald Trump's delayed response to the coronavirus. As of this writing, the figure stood at 76,895.
