you really think trump could have stopped COVID-19 and not a single American out of 350 million would have died ? Come on

I think he could have slowed COVID down so that less people would have died.

COVID was gonna hit hard either way. The difference is whether it would have killed 200,000 Americans in 7 months, in 12 months, in 24 months or at all.

If this pandemic was handled properly, you wouldn't have nearly a quarter of a million dead people due to COVID in just over half a year. Downplaying it, actively fighting the CDC over how serious it is and supporting anti-mask protestors by yelling them to "liberate" states over their mask laws at the height of the pandemic all played a part in the sheer amount of deaths that have occurred.

People would have died regardless, but the amount of people would be lower if it was handled with any sort of respect. I genuinely think that the US might have gotten out with under 200,000 deaths, if only for a single year, if this was handled properly. Trump's efforts to ignore it, to the point of him slowing down/stopping COVID testing around the country so the figure wouldn't rise as fast, is unquestionably a major reason why so many Americans are dead right now.
