And opportunist. The port cities in New York and California were taking the brunt and they were very unfair to him, so eff ‘em. “New York will suffer and that’s their problem” — Donald Trump’s whiz kid son in law
I lay thousands of death at the tiny, spur ridden feet of Trump yet it is rarely brought up which I don't understand.

In a sworn deposition before the House January 6 select committee, ex-White House communications boss Alyssa Farah Griffin told investigators she frequently received “signal” from Mr Trump’s reelection campaign asking the White House to refrain from keeping “the doctors” — meaning longtime National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease director Dr Anthony Fauci and White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator Dr Deborah Birx — off of television as a way to “talk about coronavirus less” despite the ongoing pandemic.
“Sometimes, the campaign would signal to talk about coronavirus less. That was ... a battle I was dealing with: ‘Don't put the doctors on TV, don't talk about- - just don't talk about coronavirus in general. It's not driving home a message for us,’” said Ms Griffin, who served as the White House Communications Director from April to December of 2020.

whenever his name comes up around me (here in my very red midwest town) and someone invariably starts reminiscing about how they miss him - i'll say something roughly like "he sure made a lot of dead americans...i mean, like 20 times the entire Vietnam war or something, right? i forget...did he fight in that?" >

They’ll just say more people died under Biden, which is irrelevant because Trump’s rhetoric is what was responsible for killing a bunch of people. >

which is inherently irrelevant, as that's not how exponential graphs work.
if we had properly responded in the first place, more people would have always lived.
Biden was given a sick country by a man who didn't care. >

Also because after the election a lot of the right wing state governments started going even harder on trying to infect people >

They were still vying for his favor. It was like six months before the Republicans stopped talking like Trump was just down the street and his spies were ready to snitch to him at any moment.
And Trump was offended that the vaccines arrived after the election instead of before. 
If it'd been up to him, they'd still be sitting on the tarmac. He left it up to whoever to distribute them. 
Which gave GOP govenors the opportunity to make sure the vaccines got to the wealthy ahead of the healthcare workers and the nursing home residents. >

He missed his chance there, of throwing the vaccines out to the crowd. >

With his name on them. >

Every time I hear Conservatives complain about Biden's pushing for loan forgiveness as an attempt to "buy votes", I am reminded of Trump sending out an accompanying letter with the Covid stimulus checks taking credit for the relief. >

Yeah no shit.  Donald himself muzzled Nancy Messonier back in February 2020 after she publicly testified that Covid-19 would very soon disrupt every aspect of our lives.  So the man is not only the biggest traitor in American history, but hundreds of thousands of deaths are directly related to his stupidity, vanity, and unwillingness to tell the truth.
