They came up with a pretty good plan to distribute it to states. I don't see any articles about states not getting the vaccine.

Distribution was the only thing we had to deal with for Covid? I seem to recall lock downs, changing messages from the government, almost weekly at times. And something about masks.

Trump almost literally didnt take a leadership position on anything. As the "boss" of america he didnt show it.

His message was always about keeping the economy open and giving the states what help they needed. He's not the "boss of America" when he even mentioned anything close to that he was rightfully roasted.

Trump's biggest mistake is ever letting Fauci out of the basement. He should have given the message to Pence and let him convey it.

So you expected the president to literally do nothing in regards to Covid? Literally just sit there. Not have press briefings, not organize meetings between states, help them hammer out differences, work with Congress on whatever bills they came up with?

He did all of that.

His off the cuff remarks and inconsistent messages were terrible but what else action wise did you want him to do?

He got the states working together? Got Congress to issue decent bills? Kept Fauci from contradicting himself every other week?

I dont remember any of that.

There was no way the states were going to "work together" you know that. What bills are you referring to? The stimulus? On Fauci I agreed with you, Trump should have never let him open his mouth.

Not expecting the states to be 100% aligned, but we dont even have regional levels of cooperation.

And yeah the stimulus bills. Trillions just made up with a stroke of Trumps pen.

The northeastern states and those along the great lakes were all pretty well in lockstep together. Southern states minus GA all handled it about the same way. Mid Atlantic states pretty much took the same measures so you were crying saying?

That's a stretch. At least Trump didn't kill thousands of jobs on his first day in office.

So we only care about the first day. I am pretty sure all the bs Trump allowed to happen with Covid cost at least that many jobs lost for months.

I remember you crying about what Tennessee was doing for a while. Including some nearby mayors of yours. Pretty sure there is still crying about what is still going on in the state.

Good thing he shut down travel when he did while the democrats were calling him a racist for doing it or we might have been in worse shape while Fauci was trying to decide what to do.
Biden and company are totally inept at distributing the vaccine much less deciding if states need to send kids back to school after a year at home because they're afraid of the school unions.

This may turn out to be the most Pyrrhic victory of all time. We're going to spend $10T in some warped effort to prevent the loss of thousands of old people while selling hundreds of millions of citizens down the river into an ocean of debt. How we ever expect to recoup this money is beyond me.

You know we are in trouble when even Larry Summers says it's a bad idea.
