I hate Trump as much as the next person, and virtually all the pandemic response was a shit show from the White House, but operation warp speed proved to be an actual good thing during a terrible time. It’s very impressive we developed a vaccine so quickly and got us out of the pandemic faster because of it. It’s kinda funny how one of his best accomplishments is the only thing his supporters will boo him about, and he largely can’t take the credit for because of the backlash.
He tried to scalp German scientists to produce a vaccine here in the USA, so that he would have full control over it, and get to decide who profits. That would have set progress back by months or years had he been successful. He delayed development of a vaccine by refusing to acknowledge a pandemic even existed, claiming it was a Democrat hoax. The dude isn’t responsible for any rapid vaccine development, he’s responsible for delays. But in typical trump fashion, he gets all the praise, but none of the responsibility.
