>Biden shutdown the US during COVID.
No. Trump was president during COVID shutdown, which was mainly in 2020.
- slowhadoken 1y agoCOVID was declared a global pandemic in March at the tail end of Trump’s first administration. The Presidential election was held in November. Biden unfortunately had to oversee enforcing lockdowns and vaccinations. I remember because I worked through the whole ordeal to put my wife through college.
- queenkjuul 1y agoThat was an entire 11 months of trump overseeing various degrees of lockdowns
- slowhadoken 1y agoTrump was ambushed by COVID at the tail end of his first term during an election year. The Biden administration had to pickup all the pieces for nearly three years. It got him elected and then spread him thin. Look I’m not advocating for any of these people but you have to get the story straight to mount a respectable campaign against Republicans. That’s the Achilles heel to Democrats these days, they’re hotheaded, intellectuals in decline. Learn to take criticism and strategize.
- queenkjuul 1y agoI'm not a Democrat, and how does being 8 months from an election mean Trump didn't oversee various states of lockdown while in office? The whole world was ambushed by COVID, not everyone bungled it a bad as the US.
- slowhadoken 1y agoI’m not a Democrat either. I’m thinking in terms of a timeline. COVID was from roughly 2020 to 2023 so Biden would have gotten 2/3 COVID vaccinations and lockdowns. Biden and Democrats were criticized by Republicans for keeping lockdowns going too long, that Biden bungled things (as you put it). What’s your criteria for “bungled it as bad as the US”? The US didn’t start COVID so that’s something to keep in mind too.
- slowhadoken 1y agoAnd that’s like 8 months during Trump’s last year, in the run up to an election.
- queenkjuul 1y agoSo the lockdowns didn't happen? What are you trying to say
- slowhadoken 1y agoTrump started lockdowns and vaccinations but Biden had to oversee all of it and masking for 2/3 of COVID pandemic. It’s all well documented. Maybe look up a wiki article on it or something before you ask me more questions? idk.
