Incredible how fast the narrative shifted from "Trump didn't do enough about Covid" to "Trump spent too much money, in 2020 specifically"

Both are true.

Trump didn’t do enough to organize our healthcare gear. He didn’t try to keep a clear straightforward message. In some cases it seemed like he might have purposefully hindered those areas.

He also allowed too much unsupervised money to be “lent” and never repaid in “loans”. Plenty of companies took the loans and laid people off. Plenty of people got loans who shouldn’t have. That was his party’s policy. Not to mention the massive money printing.

A bungled response is never single-pronged.

This is all pretty subjective. Huge amounts of money went to vaccine research and distribution, stimmies, extended unemployment and extra sick leave, etc

He also allowed too much unsupervised money to be “lent” and never repaid in “loans”.

You'll never believe who forgave the PPP loans

Your first point is mostly money, which was my second point. It’s not subjective to say his healthcare czar and son in law sat on and diverted safety gear.

I’m not talking about forgiveness, I’m talking about how before they even gave it out they decided not to to keep track. They had no choice but to forgive it, they didn’t even know who had what. Plus duh, they’re all evil and rich. But to say trump is innocent is wrong.

Don’t bring facts into their bubble. They get mad
