    We’re still seeing the endemic effects of the pandemic because Trump did nothing.

      He didn’t do nothing, though. He polarized masks, and the disease itself, killing hundreds of thousands of people.

      Edit: I have multiple family members that actually have become fully anti-vax since his presidency. They were NEVER anti-vax before Trump. So he’s likely killed millions of people from the way he handled things.

        Yes, 100% agree with you. I should have said he did nothing to address the situation, and definitely made it worse, particularly with his remarks.

        In 2021 I had to take a Lyft ride in LA for work, and my driver spent the whole ride telling me about his bleach spray that he would spray up with nose and into his throat to prevent COVID smh.
