My estimation personally would be around 1 million people or more have died directly and indirectly because of Trump in his 2025 Inauguration and after. That doesn't include the the thousands to millions who have died because of his policies from Covid either worldwide during his last time in office from 2016 to 2020 or from his policies then. The biggest Amount of Deaths from Covid were Republicans who denied they had Covid or that it was real to the moment of their deaths in hospitals or in their homes.
Here is a good example of why this is a real problem:
As of early 2026, estimates of Ukrainian military deaths in the war with Russia range from over 46,000 (stated by President Zelenskyy in Feb 2025) to upwards of 100,000–140,000, according to independent analyses.
So, Trump has already killed since he has been in office about 10 times 100,000 deaths if we take that as a real number of Ukrainian deaths in this whole war so far in Europe.
begin quotes:
- Global Health and Aid Cuts (2025): Modeling from researchers and humanitarian groups suggested that the dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the cutting of roughly 83% of foreign aid in 2025 resulted in significant mortality. Estimates as of late 2025 suggested that these cuts caused between 300,000 and 762,000 deaths worldwide, with a significant portion being children.
- Long-Term Global Projections: Some studies published in The Lancet and by humanitarian groups projected that if the severe cuts to foreign aid initiated in 2025 were to continue, it could lead to as many as 14 million deaths by 2030 in low- and middle-income countries.
- COVID-19 Response: A 2021 Lancet Commission report estimated that 40% of U.S. COVID-19 deaths up to that point were avoidable, suggesting roughly 180,000 to over 200,000 preventable deaths in the U.S. due to the administration's mismanagement of the pandemic.
- Environmental Policy: The Lancet report also estimated that the rollbacks of environmental and workplace protections resulted in 22,000 excess deaths in the U.S. in 2019 alone.
- General Health and Social Policy: The Lancet Commission on Public Policy estimated that pre-pandemic, Trump-era policy changes (such as weakening the health safety net) could have resulted in 461,000 excess deaths annually in the United States.
- Complexity of Attribution: Attributing deaths to specific policies is difficult, as many factors contribute to public health outcomes.
- Range of Estimates: The figures provided above are from studies and reports, and they represent differing methodologies and timeframes.
- Preventative Impact: While aid cuts were linked to higher deaths, it is also noted that U.S. aid programs had previously been recognized for preventing millions of deaths over the past two decades.
