The pandemic kind of wallpapered over it, but at the time we were looking down the tubes at a recession and a trade war, and Trump had by that point gotten rid of most of the competent cabinet that kept him in check.
If a 2008 crisis hit, it would have been bad.
People tend to forget how badly he fucked up the pandemic response. Imagine his cronies instead of Bush and Obama’s people in '08. We’d be in a depression by now.
Operation warp speed was incredibly successful. Not sure where this narrative that the whole response was a disaster comes from. Too much MSNBC?
Demonizing and downplaying and sowing doubt on the credibility of public health did incredible damage. One of the reasons the US suffered as badly as it did is because the Trump admin treated it like a PR attack on Trump, instead of like a legitimate crisis, which it was.
Trump’s failure is commonly assumed to have killed almost half-million people. And that’s just Trump’s response to COVID, turning vaccine hesitancy into a mainstream right-wing shibboleth is going to be a gift that keeps giving.
Warp speed also didn’t really help that much. Of the recipients, only Moderna’s was successful, and Pfizer wasn’t part of the program. And that’s before we get into insider trading allegations and how it didn’t coordinate with anyone internationally.
don’t be a moron. it’s going to take DECADES just to fix the supreme court problem trump and the GOP are 100% responsible for. that’s ignoring literally all the other damage trump has done to american society, which will also take generations to fix, if you’re being generous
maybe you could ask your beloved capitalist corporate overlords why even THEY see no fucking good coming from trump continuing his corpulent swan dive to the bottom as “leader” of this country
I don’t think the Supreme Court has a “problem”
The institution is working just as intended, arguably the only of the 3 branches.
LOL and next you’ll claim to feel the same way if it were 6 corrupt liberal justices instead of 6 corrupt conservative judges
you’re getting nowhere in this thread dude. but by all means, keep up your trolling practice
I didn’t know starting a global pandemic was one of the presidential powers but noted.
On a scale of 1-10 (1 being awful, 10 being excellent), how well do you think trump & his administration handled the COVID-19 pandemic?
Since 2016, it continues to spiral down the drain with every additional moron voicing support for and planning to vote for your boy, Trump.
