Those half a million dead Americans are a fact that we're just going to have to accept because he bungled his response to the epidemic.
He did, for example when he shut down chinese from coming here at the start. But he let travelers from China, who weren't Chinese return. Trump was fixated on "the China virus" and never realized that he was letting infected people come in freely.
But that was just the beginning. He failed to provide guidance on social distancing, masks, and testing. He told people the danger was a "hoax" and that it was going to go away "like a miracle" at the same time he admitted to Woodward that he knew it was very bad and that he liked to "downplay" the danger. C'mon.
your buddy Biden, called him zenophobic.
the left, including your buddy Biden, called him zenophobic.
Which is true. See above. The problem this time is that his xenophobia made him mess up, killing hundreds of thousands of Americans.
Our foreign policy is in shambles.
Because we don't bow and scrape before them like Obama?
They respected Obama, because Obama was trustworthy. So when Obama called for a boycott of Iran over nuclear weapons programs, they all complied, seizing Iranian money in their banks until Iran complied with Obama's demands. And they didn't get their money back until they did comply.
Trump abrogated the agreement, allowing Iran to resume nuclear weapons development, BTW. Another bungle.
We hold treaty signatories accountable?
Trump's failure to keep treaty and other international agreements is why we've lost face and leadership in the world. The above instance is just one of many.
Biden was criticized for being too optimistic about getting the vaccines out to people as fast as he said he could, but he did it.
Because the Trump admin got everything moving and ready for the 1st of the year.
Actually, the companies developing the vaccines did that. But that's not the problem...
Trump Administration Had No Vaccine Distribution Plan
Trump Administration Had No Vaccine Distribution Plan, Says White House
Remember all those on the left who pooh-poohed Trump (really much worse than that) when he said a vaccine would be available by late 2020/early 2021?
But it wasn't until Biden's people got a plan to make it available. It's one thing to have the vaccine, and quite another to get it in people's arms. As usual, Trump was a day late and a dollar short. Biden realized the problem and we are doing much better now. It's going to be a different administration.
It is going to be different but I will wait on the accolades.
President Biden has finalized deals to buy 200 million more COVID-19 vaccine doses from Pfizer and Moderna by the end of July, increasing the likelihood of delivering on his promise to have all Americans inoculated by mid-summer.
Biden announced the latest deals, which are part of a plan he unveiled two weeks ago, during remarks made at the National Institutes of Health on Thursday.
"We've now purchased enough vaccine supplies to vaccinate all Americans," Biden said. "Now we're working to get those vaccines into the arms of millions of people."
Additionally, Biden said, Pfizer and Moderna have agreed to expedite the delivery of 100 million doses each by a month — moving them up to May instead of June.
