Quote:What about Donald Trump? Sure, Donald Trump did suggest treating COVID with a cure for malaria, even though there never was a good reason to think it would work, but it is hard to argue it played a significant role.
His constant lying about the seriousness and the extent of the pandemic, his refusal to wear a mask, his hosting of spreader events, his lame excuse that he downplayed the whole mess to avoid a panic, his disdain for science and scientists (some of whom worked for him), his repeated assurance that the disease would miraculously disappear, and his stated desire to underreport cases and deaths for political reasons.
That’ll do to be going on with.
