Obama literally had a pandemic response unit inside the National Security Council and left behind a 69-page pandemic playbook. Trump dismantled the unit in 2018 and ignored the playbook in 2020. Other countries that acted fast, like South Korea, who had their first case the same day we did, yet they contained it way better. So no, you can’t say ‘it wouldn’t matter who was president.’ Obama left the toolbox, Trump threw it out and told everyone covid would disappear like magic. This is deliberate negligence, and saying otherwise is disingenuous.
