Im not talking about what Trump did or didn’t own on Covid… Im talking about his followers.

Trump did something no other president could have. He got two vaccines when everyone told him it was impossible. And the vaccine makers didn't announce their availability until a week after the election. But that's not suspicious at all.
Now the part where many folks don't trust the vaccine comes from a few different angles. On of the largest is the feeling of doubt when "they" (the government) pushed so hard for everyone to take this free shot. it's almost as if they wanted to sew doubt and mistrust. But they were able to politicize it, and make it a left vs right issue. When in reality, political affiliation should have nothing to do with one's ability to use common sense.
But there are conservatives who are vaxed and boosted, and there are lefties who didn't get the shot.
This statement directly contradicts the OP. How could he have done what any President would have done and still own COVID and the pandemic. I'm not a big Trump fan. I don't trust him. I did vote for him but only because of the other options. On this particular issue, he was in a no win situation. He tried to close the borders specifically because of COVID and got called a racist. If he hadn't pushed for vaccine development he would have been accused of letting people die. He pushed for vaccine development and he's accused of killing people. No win situation.
How can one man own this when the entire world became infected. Is COVID in Europe his fault too? South America? Russia? China? Maybe this is the fault of the people tinkering with diseases and weaponizing them.

I have to disagree that he did what any president would do. The Democrats told us what they would have done.
They would not have done any travel restrictions early on because that was racist, so the virus would've spread faster and killed more people here in the U.S.
They would've enacted their deadly nursing home policies nationwide, so more people would have died.
They would not have lifted all the government red tape to allow the vaccine to be produced so quickly.
They would have enacted more sweeping lockdowns and other restrictions, crippling the economy even worse than it was.
They would have kept these restrictions on much longer, with God knows what disastrous economic consequences, not to mention all the mental health, education, and other side effects that they denied were even happening.
Had the Democrats been in charge at that time , they would have done the same things Donald did .
In a two party system it is expected to claim you would do the opposite of your opponent, until it’s your turn to make decisions & those decisions become opposite of what you say .
It’s called hypocrisy & all politicians live by it .

I know that people here like to blame Biden for all of our woes ever since coronavirus but I see few talking about Trump's role in all of this as well. Trump was a lifelong Democrat up until he ran as a Republican in 2016.
