Yeah, COVID was bad and Trump did not wrap himself in glory in dealing with it.

This is the first sentences of the report that the Forbes story is based on. "This report by the Lancet Commission on Public Policy and Health in the Trump Era assesses the repercussions of President Donald Trump's health-related policies and examines the failures and social schisms that enabled his election. Trump exploited low and middle-income white people's anger over their deteriorating life prospects to mobilise racial animus and xenophobia and enlist their support for policies that benefit high-income people and corporations and threaten health."

I will read the rest of the report, but it does not seem like it will be unbiased scientific reporting.

Could Hillary have done a better job? If something similar happened again will Karmela do a better job.

Even the title of the Forbes story smacks of bias. They were not unnecessary deaths they were premature deaths. They were mostly sick people who died a few years earlier than they would have not so many were heathy people who lost a lot of years and as I read the report will it actually be things that Trump did, or will it be the government actions that Trump was only peripherally involved in.
