Not too sure of that, and I would never defend Trump. Fact is that COVID emerged around October of 2019. It was sequenced in December. Scientists developed a vaccine in early January 2020. It went into test then. Production availability started in December 2020. Biden took the distribution into high gear when entering office in 2021. Trump played no role Except being an idiot. Science saved ass.
He refused to quarantine, wouldn’t wear a goddamn mask, and he thought it was only going to be a blue cities problem so he didn’t care of it spread. He wanted covid to kill off blue (but probably real black and brown people who didn’t vote for him).
When they realized it was killing Floridians he pushed UV enemas, horse dewormer and injecting or drinking bleach.
That’s way more than being some kind of passive idiot.
Of course, that was part of being an idiot. But, the message I responded to had to do with disease spread. It spread with time, but that time wasn’t taken by Trump. Did he make things worse? Sure
I usually try to apply Hanlon’s razor first, but the evidence that they expected covid to be a blue state problem since Boston, San Fransisco, and especially NYC, all had very bad initial outbreaks and high casualties in starting March of 2020, leads me to believe there was malice behind their choices.

You’re saying all this like his sociopathic influence over millions of people, telling them masks don’t work, didn’t matter. It did.
