      Trump left us with the worst wave of death in a century, the worst crime increase in years, the first net job loss in generations, and an insurrection attempt based on an avalanche of lies told across all forms of media. Twitter was one of his least important problems. https://twitter.com/JDVance1/status/1392133368742129666 …

      The reasons why Trump is not behind the pandemic, the job losses caused by the pandemic (which are oddly concentrated in blue states), or the crime wave (which is heavily concentrated in places that have retreated from policing) should not even require explanation.

      The reasons why Trump’s incompetence and mendacity exacerbated the pandemic (which also has profound economic effects) are too numerous to recite on Twitter.

      Trump's mistakes in responding to the pandemic were legion. They are also way down the list of reasons why it was as bad as it was, which only becomes more evident the closer you study the topic.

      Don't believe me? Listen to non-Trump-fan Michael Lewis, who wrote an entire book about how Trump's war on the government was going to lead us to disaster and just wrote a new book on the botched pandemic response...that acknowledges how that was not what led to our failures.

      Today's interview with Lewis by @ezraklein is actually really good on this.

      And you also need to account for the international range of responses in recognizing what was possible. It's impossible to do so and still cling to a strong form of American anti-exceptionalism in its response.

      Yep. It's one thing to argue that Trump left office with a bunch of things that collectively make the voters politically less likely to want to relive his presidency, but that is a very different argument from "this is actually his fault."
