They had already made this a pretty useless metric earlier in the year by including 2020 data. Now they're removing it entirely in the middle of a surge.

Both of their covid plans have been near-identical, and both genocidal
I don't think Bidet has been much better than Trump, but I feel like we tend to understate Trump's role as a successful archetypal conservative president in favor of portraying him as disruptive. There is and was a schism and realignment happening in the conservative bloc, and Trump has been a central figure in that, but he didn't make the schism that disrupted them in the first place
He most often gets undeserved credit for being less hawkish than Bidet, when his actions suggested that he just wanted to shift the US' allegiances first. He took particularly aggressive action against Cuba, reversing improvements in its US legal status, and frankly I think his favored partnership between the US and Russia would have benefitted US interests greatly. It certainly would have slowed the growth of BRICS, and I can't imagine the US would have lost control of Europe over it
Trump is less evil in two ways. First off he’s just less competent as an imperial administrator. When he tries to do evil shit on the world stage he’s just not very good at it and is more likely to fumble the ball than Biden.
Second, he provokes a leftwing backlash that Biden doesn’t. Trump says no covid protections, Dems get mad, we get half covid protections. Biden says no covid protections, Dems say nothing, republicans say “We should also require spitting into strangers mouths,” and we end up here.
And then Democrats say "we need to reach across the aisle" and "we need a strong Republican party"
