Trump's authority over dealing with the pandemic is quite limited, and you know it. You cannot hold someone responsible for something he has virtually no authority to affect. Yes, he could have been a great cheerleader, but the actions that have the greatest effect on controlling the spread of the virus, he has no control over, they rest with the governors.
1. im surrounded by idiots who mirror what he says in real time, and act based directly on what he says. no masks, its just a flu, etc. Its not just fringe wierdo cases of people drinking aquarium cleaner to try and take Hydroxy Chloroquine, its a very real cause and effect path in messaging. cheerleading is way too simplistic and dismissive language here.
2. it was up to governors because he left it up to governors. yes the decision rests with them, but lack of oversight seems valid here.
in any case i find #1 above 10000x more important than #2.
