Only point I’ll make to that one is that the things you list and briefly describe each, for which PT Trump supporters don’t give a frick, and I acknowledge I only speak for myself, but it must be noted that it’s quite possibly and even most likely the case that those others have a much different assessment and perception of those examples than what yours is. And I am getting a feel for where you land on that topic, i.e. your way is really the only reasonable and accurate way to view it, but as you might imagine, I think otherwise.

You're right. I see no way shutting down an economy, spending trillions, locking kids out of schools, etc., is reasonable for a virus that is a legit threat to very, very few of the people being shut/locked down. Now here's where you say one or two things -

1. "But Trump didn't do that. It was governors and mayors." And my answer is - Trump funded it all. He made it possible for all those assholes to do a-hole things. And because I like him and voted for him doesn't mean I don't hold him accountable. DT shite the bed bigly on Covid, and it fricked this country up big time.

2. "You're Monday morning quarterbacking. Nobody knew Covid wasn't going to live up to its hype." But that's also BS. There were plenty of people that understood what was happening, and what a reasonable response to the virus would have been. Trump himself intuitively understood - go back to his initial statements, "we have to make sure the cure isn't worse than the virus" or something like that. Trump's intuition was spot on, but he bowed to pressure from the Left/media instead of leading.
