      So 2020, which by your inaccurate account, was the start of covid. When dealing with a global disease that has the potential to overload the medical system prior to getting a vaccine, what year do you think is the most important?

      Of course Trump couldnt have stopped covid from destroying the rest of the world. But he could have lessened its impact on the US. Instead, he thought it would magically dissappear by easter. Due to his cult of personality, people were explicitly attempted to spread covid. He constantly undercut what actual scientists and health experts were stating, in favor of pushing ivermectin and hydroxychloroquin, both of which have been shown to be ineffective in treating covid, and can actually make your issues worse. He failed in his response to covid across the board and reaulted in hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths.

      Per the CDC

      “January 20, 2020

      CDC reports the first laboratory-confirmed case of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus in the U.S. from samples taken on January 18 in Washington state and on the same day activates its Emergency Operations Center (EOC) to respond to the emerging outbreak.“

      I guess the first time around the world was just as surprised that there were enough morons to elect him. This time the world was more on the ball.
