Trump’s entire handling of the pandemic including telling his cult members not to respect the advice of professionals continued to kill people until we hit 1 million. That’s roughly four months into Biden’s presidency. You can’t lay any of that on Biden.
What effects do you think Biden telling the CDC to stop pushing for masking, ventilation, vaccination, and reporting on COVID, and then telling the country that the pandemic was over had on COVID deaths?
Like I said, yes, Trump did a uniquely terrible job handling COVID (except for project warp speed to push for ultra-fast development of vaccines), but it’s flabbergasting to see people speak as if Biden did nothing wrong in his own handling of the pandemic.
I’m not saying he was perfect. I’m saying the ideas pushed by Trump, Qanon, and other far right and conspiracy theory peddlers had already done their damage. By the time Biden took office, everyone had long ago sided with science or conspiracies. I doubt he convinced very many people one way or the other.
Ok, I agree with you more now that Trump really fouled the pool, but that still doesn’t excuse Biden essentially saying “fuck it, COVID is over, let 'er rip!”

Agreed.
