When you talk about politicians… are you including Donald Trump in that, who said that if you stop testing, we would actually have very few cases?

Donald Trump, who talked about injecting bleach and sunlight into people to treat COVID, doing real time word association instead of educating the public during a pandemic?

Donald Trump, who promoted hydroxycholoroquine as the miracle cure for COVID despite no evidence that it was?

Donald Trump, who had his son-in-law run a team of unqualified volunteers for a “supply chain task force” during a pandemic, who announced that the federal stockpile of medical supplies (previously understood to be available for the states) was only to be used by the federal government?

The pandemic was ended by the vaccine. Donald Trump could take credit for that, but he won’t because his base of supporters is knee-deep in conspiracy theories about it. How sad.



Of course I’m including him. He’s an idiot.
