    So ones with no credibility as I just demonstrated. Verify that they've lied to you in the past, but trust that they won't this time.

    How was Trump's handling of covid any different than Biden's? They both pushed the strategy of doing less testing so we have less cases. Vaccine uptake was abysmal under both, and will only get worse now that vaccines have gone from being free to costing almost $200. The majority of Americans have been gathering without masks at places like restaurants since day 1 because corporate media has constantly said sacrificing people for the economy is good, and no public official has even attempted to do anything to stop that. Trump's covid response was bipartisan from the start.

      Actually many American's chose to wear masks, including myself, based on public health guidance. There's definitely some inadvisable decisions made by those largely under the Trump umbrella, but they're an outlier that make for entertaining news segments.

        Yeah, the people under the Trump umbrella were pretty bad. Remember when they spat in the face of science and public health to cut the isolation period for covid cases in half because delta airlines complained about losing money? It's crazy that some people don't condemn them for that and tragic that there were never any criminal charges for such an incredible abuse of power.

          There's been a lot of condemnation handed out for their actions, not sure why you'd think otherwise?

            That was an example of Biden's covid response. We agree that Trump's administration should be condemned for its handling of covid. It seems we also agree that Biden's administration should be condemned for its handling of covid.

              I read this multiple times over and it's still not making sense, care to reiterate?

                You singled out Trump as the one president with a bad covid response. I asked how Biden's covid response was any different and you still talked about Trump. I presented an example of a terrible covid response from Biden and you agreed it should be condemned.

                  I think either I mistyped or you misinterpreted what I wrote, but it's getting late, and I'll have to reassess in the morning.
