I say yes.

The 2020 election ended up being VERY close. I think Trumps horrible response to COVID cost him the election.

Anecdotal, but I knew two people who were apolitical and voted for Trump in 2020 because they believed his response to covid was good.

I dunno if he would have won the electoral college again but he definitely would have lost the vote of the people again.

With as strong as the economy was before Covid, probably.

I always felt like covid was the only thing that made him lose. I'm pretty sure that Biden will lose this election because of "but his misspeakings" being spread by tankie ratfuckers and everyone else being too cowardly to fight back.

The 2018 midterms had historically high turnout which favored Democrats. Trump's election had already gotten more people out and involved in politics who didn't like him and what he was doing. It would have been close but I think Biden still would have won in 2020 if covid hadn't happened.

Probably. Incumbents usually win and Biden wasn't polling any better than Hillary did until covid hit, after which he still only won in each swing state by like 50k votes.

True but 2010 was a massive red wave and Obama still beat Romney in 2012.

He never was president to begin with. He may have gotten another term as prime lunatic but he was always going to lose Arizona and probably a few other states in 2020.
