That's an example of the Nirvana fallacy.  Naturally, I wouldn't expect you to know that because you're a dumbass.

1. The Nirvana fallacy isn't new ( it was developed in 1969 by Economist Harold Demsetz)

2. You didn't provide any counter to it. Because it is a fallacy.

Today is the day that Trump finally became a president

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Trump has given Joe Biden an early Christmas present!

The Trump campaign paid three million dollars for a recount in two Wisconsin counties. The results from one of those counties are in and show a net gain of 132 votes for Biden.

Essentially, then, Trump is paying out about $11 000 per vote to increase Biden's margin of victory.  I think that's pretty damned generous of him.

I know he’s a liar, a philanderer, a conman, a money launderer, but I never knew he was a virologist.

Quick update on this.

The results from both counties are now in, giving Biden a new net gain of 86 votes. Since the bill (footed by the Trump campaign) for both counties was $3 million, that means those new 86 Biden votes cost Trump almost $35 000 each.

The man’s generosity knows no bounds.

He "came up" with nothing. 
He came up with swallowing bleach, and sticking ultra-violet light up your ass. That's what he had for you. 

Generally, once the genetics of COVID was known, (which happened very quickly), all the pharmaceutical companies had what they needed to make vaccines. 
The group at Oxford had been working on all the Covid viruses for 10 years. They knew immediately what to do. Trump had nothing to do with anything relevant. 
He came up with nothing. His administration has in general, been anti science. They disbanded the pandemic group in the CDC before Covid even arose.

Further, he proclaimed at a rally, that, "Biden is going to listen to the scientists!". How does one deal with that kind of stupid?
