The other thing is that if Trump decided to go big, rather than flake, they'd be all for massive, intrusive testing and tracing.

Like, it's almost baffling that, given a crisis that would allow for the enormous expansion of arbitrary executive power, the right-wing chief executive decided that he couldn't even handle the pressure.

He doesn't like spending any effort on anything that's the least bit difficult that doesn't give him immediate pleasurable feedback

Yup. It's an unusual distinction to make, but Trump actually has no interest in being a dictator. What he wants is to be a king, with no actual policy influence except yelling at various governments, and firing them when he gets bored.

He literally wants to be a figurehead monarch, he wants all the pomp and circumstance and he wants people to be legally required to give him credit for all the actions of the state but he doesn't want to do any work at all

Yeah - and he can't quite even pull that off within the presidency, because he needs to convince *himself* that he deserves credit, as well as the media and the populace, so he always blunders in and disrupts everything.

Yeah he constantly invites comparison to the fictional Michael Scott genre of bad boss If we actually lived in a country that believed in the woo of divinely appointed bloodlines and he believed he had one we might be okay, but his insecure need to feel "in charge" fucks it up
