COVID proved that Trump is simply not suitable for his position. Maybe he is suitable for a reality show or a WWE episode, but not for presidency. And his failures in foreign policy -especially in my region- is just catastrophic.
He's underestimating it to the public, but in private he seems to be taking it seriously. Serious enough, at least, that he warned big dollar, campaign donors and corporate executives. I think his flaw is that he's more concerned with maintaining his "I'm always right" image than he is with actually controlling this disease. He'd rather let a couple million Americans die than actually admit that this disease is serious, that the scientists were right and that masks will help.
